So you can speak Russian, German, English, and Italian?
Only Russian and English. My German hardly was B1 when I quitted it. After a year or so of neglecting the language I lost it almost completely. I remember some words and some grammar but I won't be able to understand even Peppa Pig in German (I've checked). In Italian I'm just a beginner. Maybe an Upper-beginner .
You mentioned your English learning approach in another post which as I remember is something like reading and watching tv for 4 years, right?
Could you say a little bit more about it? I mean how did you do it exactly?
What type of materials have you used and how?
Why do you think you have achieved this level of proficiency?
I would love to know anything related to your approach.
I haven't read through your entire log yet, so I apologize if you've covered this at some point.
