 Short form doesn't mean grammatical error.(Using short forms does not necessarily equal to making grammatical errors.) So we may use short form in private communication (So we may use short forms in daily conversation or chatting on the ICQ) but it is not advisable to use wrong English in exchanging ideas. No matter under what circumstances, we'll never say the followings(following):I is, she are, I writes, she write, many dog, one dogs, can thought, have say, will back etc.
If you don't keep in mind to avoid making these kind of mistakes (If you do not avoid making these kinds of mistakes), I am sure your English will stay in a very poor level(at a poor level or does not meet the average standard).

It is highly appreciated that a Chinese teacher helps advise students to be aware of their English errors. I love reading English messages here. But I do wish that all Xaverians will take this as a practice for your writing, paying attention to your form and structure. We all sometimes make mistakes in our writing, especially when we are typing the message in a hurry. However, being stubborn and insisting on your mistakes to be right is something that an intelligent person will never do, paricularly if he wishes to have greater achievement.
