Hello! My name is Katherine. I live in Russia, in Saint Petersburg. I've been learning English for almost my whole life, since I was 8 years old, but I wasn't really responsible in it. So I don't speak and write very clearly. A few months ago I decided to improve the situation and now I practice every day and, of course, study grammar and vocabulary. Today I've gotten an encouragement enough to register on a few web portals to practice English with real people correcting my mistakes. Before I did it just with AI. It's nice to meet you!

Hello! My name is Katherine. I live in Russia, in Saint Petersburg. I've been learning English for almost my whole life, since I was 8 years old, but I wasn't really committed to it. So I don't speak and write very clearly. A few months ago, I decided to improve the situation and now I practice every day and, of course, study grammar and vocabulary. Today I got enough courage to sign up on a few web portals to practice English with real people who will correct my mistakes. Before, I only used AI. It's nice to meet you!
AI has its place, but for speaking practice, talking to real human beings works a lot better. Welcome to italki, Katherine!

Hello! My name is Katherine. I live in Russia, in Saint Petersburg. I've been learning English for almost my whole life, since I was 8 years old, but *I wasn't really committed to it / I didn't take it seriously*. So I don't speak and write very clearly. A few months ago I decided to improve the situation and now I practice every day and, of course, study grammar and vocabulary. Today I've gotten *enough* encouragement to register on a few web portals to practice English with real people correcting my mistakes. Before I did it just with AI. It's nice to meet you!
Hi Katherine! Welcome to italki and lovely to see another Russian speaker here. 🌷 Moving from AI-only practice to real human practice is exactly the right step at your level. Welcome aboard. 🌟
