Hi guys.
A long the latest years i have improved my level of english. The first thing to be able to learn well is read and watching something in english. The second thing necesary is have a good silent place where you can study. And finally have a teacher who will try to get the best out of you.

About us being spams
Dear friends, we are not spams, we are students trying to learn English using XXI tools, which, by the way, some of you, not many, but just a few, seem to be not aware of. What a shame!!

Perhaps you could give a review and a link to the XXI tools?

Welcome to the forum. I was surprised to see so many people suddenly show up here, all from Valencia and all learning English, but I figured it must be some kind of school project. I would suggest starting your own logs in the language logs portion of the forum. I’m studying Spanish, so I’ve been writing my log in Spanish since January. My writing is still not that good, but it has improved tremendously just by writing in my log. Also, we don’t usually correct anyone’s writing unless they ask for corrections. So if you want corrections, put a message in your signature.

Welcome! I'm glad your teacher told you about this forum :D Or did one of you just happen to discover it?
It's not very active, but we do have an English study group. We can start another one if needed.
I've also started an "introduce yourself"-thread. Please use it for your "My name is X and this is how I've learned English" posts :!:

LyricsTraining now has Finnish and Polish :)
Corrections welcome

New year, new 50 words (or so):

Every day I try to spend at least 30 minutes with a foreign language. Most days that is listening to a podcast (Russian, Esperanto), reading (whichever language I'm working on then), speaking (if I'm lucky to find someone who speaks a language I'm working on). I was saddened when on the second day prior to my departure from my deployment to Djibouti I met two guys from Kyrgyzstan working on the base. That 10 minutes of Russian speaking was so nice! I wish I had met them on day one. Would have bought them all the coffees, just to get some speaking practice!
