Hello Molly,
I notice that you are not capitalising "I", and we do this all the time, not just at the beginning of sentences. good luck with your new study partner.
I Think Too Much
I work in a technology company in Suzhou, It is in the east of China. I am responsible for English-Chinese and Chinese-English translation.
At the beginning of my work When I started there were some foreign visitors coming to our factory, but I am was ashamed of talking to them, because I think that my pronunciation is poor and I don't have full enough confidence to chat with them.
I am an English major and have graduated for about 2 years ago. Though I have passed TEM 8 which is seen as the highest level of English in China, I dare not to speak in front of other people, especially English native English speakers.
As time flies, I've realized oral English is a must for me. I must improve it, however, I don't know what to do at present. I regret that I didn't talk too much with my partner in English at university, and didn't go to the English corner, didn't read English Newspapers and so on. I found a friend to help me several days ago, I am grateful to her for her kindness.
I hope I can become more confident and make progress through her help. At last, I wanna want to find more friends who speak English as their first language to help me overcome this difficulty.
