Hi every one, I am very happy to join this community and introduce my shelf. I am a Vietnam student, 26 ages. I am studying in Environmental Science & Engineering in Vietnam University.
I really want to use English language as a common language in my works. Therefore, I would like to receive your cooperation to improve my skill as well.
Thank you very much! |

Hi Hafidh! Good luck with your PhD. As far as I know one uses "I look forward to" in a formal letter (business letter) while "I am looking forward to" is more appropriate in an informal or semi-formal letter - e.g. when writing to a friend, a relative or someone of your age or when not writing in an official tone. Hope it helps. |

Hi Thanks so much for this invaluable information. What does this expression mean when someone described as "walk talk"? and the idiom: Doing the right thing is better than doing things right. Best Regards |
