me too. i want to take 9 mark at university exam but now i just can take from 5 to 7 .

read as much as possible, whenever and wherever you can. bet u hav a smartfone dont ya? I didnt even have a fone in my time back then let alone a smartfone.

somewhere around 8 years ago I read a lot, mostly manga and manga blog though my mom didnt think it's good for my health reading manga days by days so she cut my allowances. which later on forced me to surf the net to drench my thirst for manga I read nonstoppingly in the next few years and tried posting stuff in some english manga forum. I actually didn't go to any english class after finishing junior high

that said, look for things interest you the most and keep googling around for more material. jot down any phrases or collocations you find interesting and try using it next time writing anything so that they are carved right into your brain

english is fun, a lot more fun than science subjects (mind you I did math in university ), so don't make it as if you are being tortured by the language.

This is true as well. God knows what you could learn after hours surfing Wikipedia.

I'm not very familiar with that expression. Google's is also confused about this.
