I need to stay motivated! I really want to break free of my fear of speaking a foreign language! I memorize well and I can understand what people are trying to say but I freeze when I try to speak! I need someone who is very patient and encouraging. Or I need to just get over it somehow! Oy...

Hello! It's been a while! I would really like to ask for some advice on speaking a different language without feeling completely embarrassed about how you sound!? I can retain so much information about a language but I'm terrified to use what I've learned. I immediately go blank. Anyone have this problem?

Play hard work hard! tengo un fin de semana por delante de mí ! que va a ser sin parar ! en el lado positivo estoy aprendiendo mucho ya !

Rough day at work. trabalho esta noite foi muito difícil. estas crianças que eu ensino têm vidas difíceis e lutam muito. im a honra de ajudar, mas é preciso um monte de mim emocionalmente.

Really excited!정말 흥분 hangug-eo leul baeul mesinjeo jeongmal heungbun ! naneun god bangmun gyehoeg ! I'm also really excited to get better with my Spanish. I grew up speaking it and I'm embarrassed that I'm so rusty now. As I start studying with partners and learning more I'll post questions and have discussions with my fellow language learners! If anyone just needs some support just let me know. This process can be hard but I know if we keep trying, every day will get better. Some days might prove to be a challenge but that's life. So hang in there everyone!

Day 1 of trying a new way ! I've been trying to learn Korean, German , hindi, Italian and Portuguese on my own. Even thoughtful seem to pick the basic ideas and concepts if each one.. it's still really hard without a partner. The hardest one for me is Korean and the certain sounds that in English are a combination of three letter sounds.
