You are doing fine! Don't let the ranking be your measure of success. The emotional roller coaster can affect your work. Be in competition with yourself and learn something new each day. That is the only ranking that counts.

Also, I understand about ESL (English as a Second Language) My wife and I teach it every day with students whose first language is Spanish. You are doing very well! Again, just do a little each day and remember that little things become big things. Pennies become dollars! I am enjoying seeing your progress!

Yes, those ranking counters are scary. I wonder about people who actually graduate all courses. Are they then making it?

Good Morning Dorothy,

Do not worry about the ranking, some have gone down while others have gone up. Depending on your activity it will change again. English is not my mother tongue either but Grammarly is a big help. Still, one has to think about their correction suggestions as they can be also wrong.

Greetings from the south of Spain, Taetske

Your English is very good...wouldn't have know it wasn't your first language. Your ranking will go down quickly. All the best. Debbie

Great attitude. Welcome back

Glad you're back. I know your feelings. I came back too only to find a significant drop in my ratings. A bit demoralizing, but as others mentioned, time to concentrate on your business/site and training.

All the best.

Wayne

Thanks for sharing.

You will be empowered to use the language here in exceptional ways for your writing fulfillment Dorothy!

They did an update to the ranking system. So don't worry about it, training and lessons more important focus.
