I'm try to improve my English skills
| Trying* ops
| Considering that most people online cannot speak English correctly, you probably should read books or play video games to improve your skills. Here you'll only learn wrong practices.
| Thanks I appreciate it. But I'm trying to practice some conversation since it's my weakest point.

I'm also a foreigner and it is quite useful to browse forums, reddit, etc just for that reason.
I ended up learning a lot of common misspellings this way (misspellings which are done almost 100% of the times by Americans btw...i find it disturbing)

How is it going? Where are you from? It sounds weird to see someone taking classes for English nowadays, since most kids are bilingual nowadays, at least in europe
| Yeah. I'm from Brazil, and I came here to read everything I can and try to learn something from it, I also watch a lot of videos in English to improve my listening as well
| >>461861 if you haven't done it yet, I recommend you to switch all electronics you use everyday to english: OS and programs to English, phone to English, video games to English, search stuff in Google in English, etc (especially the last two)
This way you will be using the language everyday
| Thanks for the tip, I'll do it right now ^^. I'm a Little shy,and I am really afraid of making mistakes, so I've never tried to do something like this. I always think that someone will laugh at me or something... Hahah
| You're not nearly as laughable as some of the native speakers.
| Really?? Thankss
| >>02606c You're doing a great job OP! Have you read many English books, and if yes, who's your favourite author?

Read books for more vocabulary and watch media(movies/tv/videos) to practice your hearing abilities.As for talking welp, try reading out loud or voice chat with randoms
| I love horror stories, like Allan Poe and Lovecraft, but it takes a lot of my time, because it is hard to me to understand everything, so I prefer to read some manga online...
| But I'm always reading or watching to something on the internet
| Oh right, lately I've been talking to a Dutch Girl, and that's helping me a lot too
| American porn movies are very stimulating actually
| Hahaha I don't know if this will help me, but I'll watch it

| So..I've been doing English classes for three years now, so ask me anything and I'll try to answer it properly. ^^
