I would agree with all those tasks you have done and listed ...I too feel that the only thing that helps is practice and gaining knowledge..Even conversing with people, even here on forums I have learnt so much. A word or a phrase is enough to make us explore further ..

@usha..I am glad you think so..

The more we use the langue the more proficient we become.  

Yeah as you reaffirm  - practice makes perfect. There is nothing like getting on the ground and learning the skills yourself. 

Curiosity does open our minds to wider range of subjects, I agree.

 Is there a way to present it in point format. It doesn't seem to work on the start a discussion box, though it works fine here. 

I am sure you can present in point format  now, couldn't you do that while starting the topic ?

Did you mean you wanted to present your discussion in that format? If you find I did not do the job according to your choice I will amend it the way you ask me to do that.

Absolutely so ..I find most Indians , while pointed out at some lack from their side, taking solace in the fact that 3English is not their language and they are bound to have a Hindi/ Kannada/Malayalees /Bengali or whatever accent and it is to be expected..To a certain extent one can agree with that but why not make the effort to do away with the accent .

I read regularly News paper, one in English and one in Telugu.. Additionally, I watch News Channels,

This helps me to refine my reading and writing Skills to some extent.

Speaking about curiosity , imagination too is a powerful tool since it opens up many new avenues . Developing children's imagination is very essential to broaden their outlook ..

Curiosity allows one to explore different aspects of life.

Curiosity is the Mother of invention
