Many students consider English as a boring subject at school. I remember my high school times. We had a strict teacher. School week ended for us with last lesson of English because we consider other subjects easier to deal with 🙂. Positive motivation is key. Thanks to English self-taught studies I met a lot of interesting people around the world and they as my language partners helped me a lot to feel more confident during my speaking. I didn't have to force myself to our conversation but spending a good time with nice people was a huge motivation 🙂.
