幫你改改
Hello, I am a student currently studying in a private university in Tamsui. It seems like majoring in subjects related in Science and Engineering are better than majoring in subjects related Liberal Arts when it comes to job hunting these days, but I didn't choose to go down that path because my mathematics is just too bad to be studying in any math-related fields. I am concerned about my job opportunities upon graduation.

I am majoring in English so I'd like to find an English-related job, but I feel I am not doing well enough. I am currently ranked the third in my class, which means there is two more people who are better than me in terms of GPA. To make the matter worse, I face competitions from those studying at national universities around Taiwan. Those people should be better than the two who rank higher than me in my class.

I feel that my English is not good enough for a job that requires using English as a first language. I only passed the intermediate level of GEPT and I am a shy person. However, I will try my best to learn the language.

As of now, I still have to check the dictionary to ensure that my word choice is correct. I know I still have a long path to go.

You should be able to tell my English abilities by now and comment on if an English-related job will be suitable for me. I admit that I am not a matured person, so I will take your opinions as guidance for me to succeed.



i dont have much time to do a complete overhaul for you, but for me, your original essay is a fail. (sorry to be so harsh, but im trying to help you here) your grammar and word choice mistakes are understandable because you're not a native speaker, but your essay's not making sense. you need to work on your logic and organization. don't think of one idea and put it down and then switch to another one. it's confusing
Compared to majority of Taiwanese people, your English is pretty good already but one thing you gotta pay attention to is that you start too many of your sentences with "I". It's generally an indicator that your English isn't that advanced yet or subconsciously you are a selfish person and you don't even know it?

第二句開始就是敗筆,我不會想看下去。

用Seems 代表没自信,不了解自己,何論付出?

沒錯! 敢說贏一半。體會到文法邏輯加上更多的單字量就無敵了
樓主是英文系
要麻就是雙主修另一個專業
要麻就是變成專業的翻譯
現在會英文的人太多了 基本上只會英文沒有優勢
導正一下許多即將出社會的同學的觀念
很多大學生在社會一片強調英文的風氣中
總是覺得英文多重要多重要
甚至很多人覺得會講英文就是件很了不起的事一樣
台灣本身過度強調英文的觀念是有問題的
不是不鼓勵大學生加強英文
除非你是要出國深造 為了考托福跟GRE
那英文就不得不拼
否則在學生時期應該好好把專業培養好
搞清楚自己以後要做什麼或想做什麼
閒暇之餘再來加強自己的英文
而不是本末倒置 想說可以用英文來找工作
英文是加分 這加分是建立在專業之上的

all u need is more "transition words".

I reckon that my composition is more like a colloquial introduction to myself rather than a formal essay. In composition lessons, my mistakes have been indicated by my teacher, which is mainly being redundant.

As for being a selfish person, indeed, I am. It is because I have to repay the huge amount of debt of my family after entering the work place. Money became my priority. Maybe you would say it is wrong. For me, money matters.
