Are you good at writing? I am not good at writing. In speaking, even if you mistake grammar, I think you can communicate other person. But, I think you need more knowledge for writing than speaking.
When I enroll to this school, I participated Osaka YMCA spring seminar with Aki Sakihara, she is GC classmate. The teacher was Mr. Mondy. This class was writing class. We learned and practiced about writing, then Mr. Mondy checked our writing every times. After he checked, I found many, many mistakes in my writing. I realized writing in other language. I understood what I should write in Japanese, but I can’t express very much.
But knowing writing mistakes, I could know correct expressions in writing. I think it is important for our life to make mistakes. Human grow up by making mistakes. But, we should not make mistakes for taking an exam.

Hey, you did quite well in that writing class. I think that we have to realize that our mistakes can help us notice things about our writing. They are not a negative thing, but something that happens naturally. Of course, in writing we try to limit them as much as possible, but we shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes. Steven
I think to express sonething in English is difficult, too. And sometime, even as for Japanese. But "Mistakes are grown up me" that is true, I hope.
