I'm so glad that come acorss this website today. And seeing so many friends around the world makes me excited.
I'm a junior college student study in the northren part of China. Love English so much, and seen it as a effective tool of communicating with all the lovely friends around the world.
But I'm puzzled rencent days. I've put much of my enery on this subject. At first, it do helps a lot that I can understand more in reading and listening. But, I still don't konw how to communicate with others in this language. Whenever I'd like to say someting in Englisn I just can't find the exact words.
Making speech in front of people is another headache for me . When I'm stand in front of people ,my mind tend to be blank and don't know what to say. And my voice sometimes even start shaking. To tell you the truth,I've never talk with any native speakers yet.
Hope all of you can help this girl who really love English deeply and want to meet more friends. Here is my email address: [email protected]

Hi, Im an English Teacher and I really love teaching esl.

I am a native speaker from America and have been teaching esl for serveral years.

Actually many of my studetns have had the same problem. The only solution is to have as much practice as you can with a native speaker. And after you build up your confindence, you will have no problem.

I am offering free classes online right now.
