Second day I was thinking about the way I will employ a virtual space given by italki.com, I came up with idea to present diffrent tools for studying English which I consider useful. It can be texts, videos or audios. Everything what will push me toward a fluent use of foreign language. Let's start :) Today I read two interesting articles from italki.com. First was titled "Reading To Improve Your English Skills" and relate reding role in studying. There is few curious questions. The author give link to site with collection of college admissions essays.What motivate me to peek in them is that they were written by people from prestigious univeristies. Second interesting suggestion is to compere transcription and my pronunciation with the orginal speaker. I think it will match to TED talks. Another text read by me was titled "What Is Fluency?: Exploring Different Types". It depict what I wrote yesterday about problems with language's fluency and what it exactly means. Author discriminate between diffrent types of fluent language's using. What is worth to remember? The most popular among lerners mode of fluency is unrealistic. Even native speakers don't know everything. So I should concentrate on native-like fluency. Author describe it - "it means that you generally know all the same words that a native knows and can speak at the same pace with the same amount of ease as a native speaker. You will likely have an accent, but as long your conversation partner can understand you without difficulty, it doesn’t matter." I agreed that describe my objective in language studying. However, what this means in practice? What I should do in order to achive it? This time CEFR scale come with rescue. C1 show more details about what fluency represent for me. Again I have to ask what that mean in practice?
