Hi, I want to learning English too. I think we can use story book, move and news but make relationship with another person who wants learning beter than every method. therefore i like having many frinds. i need to improve my relationship and speaking in English Culture. I am ready to learning.

Hello I also want to improve my English, so I think that the better way is having contact all the time with the language. if you are interested, we can practice. add me.

hello Ger, I'm learning too, I think that the better way is practicing always, now that you have a intermediate level is the better time to find a some native friend to talk. Good look :D
