Adventure is started Well... I've got my first full English lesson on italki! After a trial lesson with Robert (my teacher) I decided to continue studying with him. It's a new experience for me and I'm trying to figure out whether it I have wanted or not. I've studied English in many ways before: a school course and an university course didn't help me much but allowed me to start reading; a special course developed by Mr Runov helped me to start speaking and gave me knowledge of grammar (at least I think so); different courses at different places of work helped me to develop my vocabulary and to improve my speaking skills; a short term living in Ireland and travelling around the world gave me an incredible experience of communication with different people in English; different podcasts (ESL Podcast, 6 Minute English by BBC) and mobile applications (Duolingo) have been allowing me to "keep fit" and not to forget what I already know. And now I'm here to talk with native speakers not leaving my home. What I'm looking for? I know my grammar is not ideal and I hope to improve it to write and to speak more correct. Having different situations in real life I realized that sometimes I completely do not understand what people say and this fact is so sad for me. I would want to improve my listening skills to understand people around me. It seems people understand me when I speak (in most of cases) so I would just wanted to improve my skills to sound more natural for native speakers (if it possible at all). It seems enough for the first note... New knowledge? I'm good to go!
