Try getting a few fluent friends in America , online and/or offline and speaking to them regularly reminding them to correct you, etc, and ask if they can teach you from time to time.
I had a Chinese friend with your exact condition, but she had it harder since she had no English speaking friends in china, so she relied on making ones online and talking to them regularly on MSN. Believe me, it worked, since I was one of those people. She improved a lot.
You could even try joining an online English community forum and keep an eye on the people whom know how to capitalize their first word in each sentence and use punctuation, their usually the better ones to study off of.
I had another friend who was from Singapore, her English was horrid when I first met her, but now I've known her for 3 years, and she speaks perfectly.
Best of luck.
The best way is to practise,so i suggest you find yourself a good english teacher at college/uni and soak up all the information you can.
Part of it is being able to speak English properly. Because, when you write something and then read it out-loud to yourself it will not sound right if your grammar is off. There are plenty of ways to practice that.
There are organizations like the toastmasters who will help you learn how to speak better. The Toastmasters is a club of people who get together and take turns giving speeches. Then they critique each other. It is really uncomfortable at first but most people are just as nervous and it really helps.
You could also find a friend who is really good about English. College English major or the sort and just talk with them a lot. If you find someone who can give you gentle corrections to help you you'll start learning it faster.
Your question was written pretty well so it seems like you are on your way. Good luck.
Buy the book... English for Dummies... it will help, and then take an English course at your Local community college at night, once a week! +-$200... Look at the Continuing education department for cheap night classes! good luck!
I'm Chinese and I moved to the UK when I was young. To be honest, for the first 10 years, although I was in school and I 'got by' with my English, my speaking sucked and my writing wasn't the best either.
I had to admit when I was in university, I mingled with all the other Chinese people and spoke very little English, so no major improvements then.
I have to say my English improved when I started working, when I was forced to speak 10 hours of English everyday. Also, I started reading a lot as I have more free time compared to college days, I also read for leisure rather than for work.
However, you can buy exercise books that are dedicated to improving grammers. You can also listen to audio books, so you would listen to 'good' English quite frequently and know what they should sound like. So when it comes to writing your essays, you can read the sentences out to yourself and would know they sound grammatically correct or not.
The only advice i can give you is to move from America to England where they speak the language properly.
If you don't read a lot, you could try to increase that with books or magazines that interest you. That way you can see how sentences are constructed. Good luck!
practice makes man perfect. Try and try again you will certainly improve your English
I used to belong to a writing forum on yahoo groups. I did beta reading for quite a few ESL writers. Most of them were writing solely to improve their use of the English language. So, find a writing forum about something you like, (mine was Pretender fanfiction), and get yourself a good beta reader, and practice, practice, practice.
I got a miracle cure, go back home.
