stokowski,thank you so much! I don't worried about my speaking, since I am a teaching assistant and have to prepare tutorial classes for the undergraduate student. But I have to say I do have some acent...One fact may help me is toefl test. I think my speaking is much better than reading and listening. I hope I can get 26+ in toefl test. But rather worry about the listening and reading parts. One fact you never know is so called "portfolio" in the universities. They sometimes will not consider Asian applicants simply because their PhD proportion have enough students from Asian, including Indian. This is a strong reason for them kicking you out. |
