Antony
About me and my English) Hello everybody!) My name is Antony and I'm from Russia. I am learning English by myself for two ears. And I want to improve my English skills and start to speak fluently. I have no enough a conversational practice, because usually I just read English books and listen to BBC radio then try to talk with somebody. Because I'm shy) Yes, it's true. And it's no pretty problem that I could ever want to have. But I believe that I can overcome it. When I have been to Paris and Warsaw I understood that a knowledge of what many English words means is not enough that I can speak without problems unfortunately. I have known that people have a passive vocabulary and active vocabulary. So bouth of them is not the same things. And if a can read and udurstend some words, it does not mean that I will remember these words when I talking. I think it's interesting feature of memory that shows us invisible work our mind and makes us don't stop our development. I love to study and learn new things. The world of other lenguages seems mystery and unusual for me and I think it's great))
