Open Invitation for Grammar Nazis...

[sophiejoy]

English is my second language. I try to write as properly as I can with the knowledge I have, but I know it must sound a little broken for native or more proficient English speakers.
I'm a grammar nazi in Spanish (a humble one, as I know I'm not THAT good with punctuation) so I can understand if some of you feel your eyes burning when you read errors or if you have hard time trying to decipher what I tried to say.
I want to improve my writing skills, so if you notice a mistake and you feel compelled to cross it out and correct but you don't want to be unpolite... please know I beg you to do so. Maybe in a private or as a response, but if you have a little time to enlighten me I will be grateful

Sometimes I just write quick responses filled with typos... yeah... sorry. Maybe those are not worth your time...

I love being helpful to people who have English as their second language. I have tried to learn Spanish, and when I use it I love when people teach me the correct way of speaking/writing when I use it incorrectly. Honesty is a wonderful approach. Who wants to sound like a fool?

I have helped a few different friends over the years master English as their second language, and they have been thankful for my honest approach. I would be happy to help guide you as well.

I have not noticed too much from you that has been poor English. You seem to have a very good handle on this. You definitely use grammar better than many people who have had English as their FIRST language! So stand proud! And feel free to ask for any help if you would like! If you have anything that you would like me to proofread, please do not hesitate to send me a copy and I will be happy to check it over for you!
