It`s so hard to be fluent in English isn`t it? Hi guys!!! How have you been? It`s been a long time!! I`ve joined this website to learn English for about 6 months ago. I was full of passion that want to be fluent in English at the moment so I`ve tried to make a lot of foreign friends and written this kind of notes. I`ve kept talking to my foreign friends via some kinds of messengers and It`s so helpful to me!! They are so kind : ) Despite this, I`m still not confident of my English : ( A couple of weeks ago, a foreign tripper suddenly addressed me in English as I was on my way to eat Mcdonald for my lunch. She wanted to know how to get Kyeong Bok Goong which is a kind of Korean palace. Actually It was so easy to get the palace from there, but I couldn`t answer her well... because I was so nervous at the moment... I was like 'omg... this is so easy thing!! but what should i say? I wish I could let her know with text message' I`m still sorry to her that I couldn`t tell her specifically... Recently, I`ve tried to watch an American Tv shows called 'Big Bang Theory' with English subtitles, and also read an English book 'Hunger Game' haha Actually I think... I can understand only 60% of the English... I really want to speak English very well!! What should I do? Thanks for reading my note : ) Have a nice day!

It's so hard to be fluent in English isn't it?

Hi guys!!! How have you been? It's been a long time!!

I joined this website to learn English about 6 months ago. I was full of passion because I wanted to be fluent in English at that moment and I tried to make a lot of foreign friends so I wrote this kind of note. I've kept in touch with my foreign friends via some messenger apps and it's been so helpful for me!! They are so kind : )

A couple of weeks ago, a tourist suddenly spoke to me in English as I was on my way to Mcdonalds for lunch. She wanted to know how to get to Kyeong Bok Goong which is a kind of Korean palace. Actually it was so easy to get to the palace from there but I couldn't answer her well because I was so nervous at that moment... I was like "omg... this is so easy but what should I say? I wish I could have let her know through text message." I'm still sorry that I couldn't tell her anything specific...

Recently, I've tried to watch an American tv show called " The Big Bang Theory" with English subtitles and also reading an English book called "The Hunger Games" haha. Actually I think I can understand only 60% of the English... I really want to speak English very well!! What should I do? Thanks for reading my note : ) Have a nice day!

There is no need to be nervous! You learn by making mistakes. English speakers will hear that you are trying and that you want to improve, and they will route for you! Most English speakers are very accustomed to hearing people speak English with very heavy accents, so they will not be judgmental. Many of my coworkers have very heavy accents, and I am so used to it that sometimes I forget that they have accents! My advise is to practice, practice, practice! And don't be afraid to make mistakes, that is a natural part of learning.
