So, let’s kick off with some bravery and start with an introduction… in English! You can fill in the blanks and add anything else you would like to share:

Hi ! I am glad you asked.

I recommend the "fabbricante di lacrime", give this book a chace because if you saw the movie you will think that the books is not good but in reality is so much better, in the movie they removed the best part so if you are willing to read the book let me know <3

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

pacer loay írta időpontban

To improve your English, it's really important to start by clearly defining your goal — that way, you'll stay motivated. Try to practice a little every day, even if it’s just for a short time, because consistency is key. Surround yourself with English in everything — listen, read, and watch series or videos. That way, you’ll strengthen your skills naturally. And don’t be afraid to make mistakes; mistakes are a necessary part of learning. Finally, use helpful tools and take your time learning — progress takes time and patience.
