About me

Hi all, I would like to introduce myself as Soumya, a computer Engineer. As like everyone else, I initiated the process for my PR to settle in Australia. With my international experience and qualification, I was very much confident that I will score good marks in PTE in my first attempt itself. Without much research and practice, I was all set for the exam day. But Alas, my score in Speaking was 36 and the overall score was 60.

Didn't post since a long time as I was feeling lazy.....Today went for an interview as a Primary teacher and failed miserably :(... I was overconfident in my English and didn't do any preparation. Unfortunately, I couldn't answer simple basic grammar questions as its been out of touch for a while. Hence posting some basic grammar rules which will be beneficial in the long run. Nouns A noun  names a person, animal, place, thing, quality, idea, activity, or feeling. A noun can be singular, plural, or possessive. For example: This  book  is filled with intrigue and interest. Please light the  fire . I'd like some  ice  in my  tea . Pronouns A pronoun  is a word that takes the place of a noun, like "I," "you," or "they." For example: It  is filled with intrigue. Please light  their  fire. I'd like some of  them  in my tea. Verbs A verb  shows action and can be a main verb (such ...
