I have learned german in faculty & took so many courses but I do not speak...I do not trust myself in speaking with stangers or even with my colleagues at work, I think I'm afraid that I will make mistakes & people will laugh at me... See I do not have friends (real friends) who speak German so no matter how good I was in learning the language, i do not use it so i forget what i learn...now I'm having another online course where I should interact with other students on skype & I could not speak, when it was my turn to talk, I did not remember what i have to say so unplugged the mic & wrote "Mein Mikrophon funktioniert nicht" and kep listing to what they said & I understood every single word but can't speak:-(
