Welcome to English

Hello friends,

I'd like to share my ideas and learning's in English which will help many of you to get rid of competitive exams. I'm not saying that this will be your complete guide to pass the exam, but this site will help you to understand what words to use where, while forming a sentence.

Lets start the journey of learning..


I'm educated from a small town and my mother-tongue is Telugu. After the completion of my B-tech, i realized that English is that necessary to get into an IT company as software professional. I strive hard to open my mouth to talk in English, especially in-front of group of people. However, i passed all those hurdles and now happy with good job.

For getting into a job, my English is enough, but later on i realized that i need to learn more things in English such as Grammar, Words, Meaning etc., to get rid of few competitive exams. So i started the learning process again. Here I'll share the data that I've learn so far which would help you to cope with English a bit easily :)
