In one my previous article, entitled "Responding to Constructive Criticisms", I shared about what a constructive criticism is. I also shared my experience, the benefits on submitting to constructive criticisms as well as how to positively react on that kind of criticism.
In the end part of that article I asked for some constructive criticisms experienced here in read.
Nobody shared it on that article, but someone has shared her experience in private and she is very willing to share it in this article.
A Constructive Criticism here in read
"Constructive Criticism, this words ring a bell in my ears. As I've experienced being constructively critized. Not with my appearance but with my English Grammar lol.
Yeah I admit that I'm not really good and fluent especially in English Grammar but writing is my passion and stress reliever. I handled the situation with flying colors. I don't care what people may said as long as what I wrote is understandable and truly came from my heart with effort then there's nothing wrong with that. Although it's not 100% perfect but I know in my self that it's not too bad. But I'm still trying my very best to write a correct and perfect grammar as much as possible. Everyday there's a learning and lessons to share. Criticism can't stop me from Writing. "

One of the most observed constructive criticisms I saw here in read is improving grammar. I also saw one today, in which his article got a comment of improve your grammar to adhere to community standards.
In this platform, we have different levels of writing capabilities, some are seasoned bloggers, some are writers, some are beginners, some are really excellent in writing and some are struggling to create English articles. There are also those who use translators to be able to communicate with others who cannot understand their language. I myself is not that good in writing, but I am trying my best to improve each day and to make sure that the message of my article is delivered to my audience.
However, in read you cannot see a rule that says you should be good in English Grammar, it just says, publish great content to read and watch by other writers who can be your support system in the long run. Yet, it is expected that in writing a great content, it should be understandable, and adhering to some grammatical rules. Whenever, we are constructively criticize about this, take it as an opportunity to learn. I really admire how Leejhen responded to the criticism, it did not stop her from writing and she welcomed it as part of learning process. Now she was able to publish more than 170 articles.
The more you write, the more you can improve, the more you read other's works you can learn different writing styles which you can apply to your own writeups. You can also take some free courses and study your own. There are also softwares for grammar improvement like Grammarly. We just need to practice and practice. Let me share this, learning prepositions through this cats and somehow we can master the use of this words.
CONCLUSION
Constructive criticisms can be experienced anywhere, at home, in school, in office or even here in read. We should be able to handle it properly and it should not stop us in doing the things we usually do. Let us take it to the positive perspective that we can improve our work and our way of handling things. Everyday should be considered as a time to improve.

I also like how she handled the situation. The truth is I have no problem with constructive criticism. Actually, I made it a norm to always write at the end of my article in another blogging site how I welcome that and it has really helped me improved a lot. So many of us English is not our first language and some people struggle to make a good and readable article and I am glad that Leejhen handled this well.
