我基本上也是中式英文啊，咋办呀~~

不是你学不会英式英语，应该是你潜意识里面不想学。

我在读business administration diploma. 作业是报告，我写了。然后老师的评语是语法单词都是对的， 是典型的英文是第二语言的人写的。回家问老公，本人的报告每每都是他帮改的。回答说，是的， 每次他都很小心，不改太多，不然就 ...

The biggest issue with Chinese people in Australia getting better at English is that they seldom use it outside the workplace - and often don't within workplaces either.

The way to get better at it is to use it. If you leave work and then don't use English again until you get back to work the next day then it can be hard to improve. This is especially true if you work with Chinese people because then you will find yourself not using English there either.

So start looking for ways in your everyday life to get better at it. These things might not apply to you but do to various people I know and hopefully some of them are useful (apologies if some have alresady been said).

1. Read books in English
2. Write on this forum in English
3. Talk to your friends in English occasionally
4. Don't watch English TV shows or movies with Chinese sub-titles
5. Specifically watch English TV shows with more formal English. Things like the news or documentaries. Shows produced in the UK - especially set 50+ years ago. The English in UK cop shows and soaps is generally terrible so don't watch those.
6. Watch Cinese TV shows or movies with English sub-titles - as long as the sub-stitles have been written in an English speaking country.

Basically just work it into your life more. I have work colleagues who go a whole weekend without speaking English and when there is a longer break, like at christmas, their English noticeably deteriorates. So you just need to use it more to get better at sentence structure but also the "culture" that surrounds the language and then in more formal situations it will be easier to write.

楼主可以看一下其他local同学的报告，看一下自己到底chinglish在哪里。

政府工作真的需要很标准的英语吗？我在很久很久以前做过政府部门的工作，那时我的英语并不好，自己也很没信心，办公室里只有我一个亚洲人，我每次写东西都先要参考好几篇其他同事写的东西，我的英语是在工作中提高的。

建议楼主找中介，找中介的找工成功率比较高。可以先做短期合同工，再争取转或申请其他permanent职位。

另外，好的中介会根据你的要求和条件，推荐适合你的工作给你。

在中介那里面试比去用工单位面试容易。中介还会告诉你，正式去单位面试时，你需要注意和准备点什么。

Thanks for sharing!
I speak English at home because my hubby is an Aussie. I speak English at workplace as well, owing to the lack of Chinese background colleagues.
I confess I spend a long time on Chinese language forums each day instead of read News or information in English.

现在不少的人都希望到政府单位上班，我在堪培拉，政府工作初级职员现在很多都以3个月几个月的短期工为主了，我打算圣诞过后找中介申请。分送完了，等有了就加：）多谢！
