text: Your writing communication is very good. I encourage you to keep practicing English.\n\nI had a roommate who was Korean. All of her friends were Korean, she only used English when she had to. As a result, even after being in the States for 6 yrs, her English speaking skills were still poor. She needed to practice more, pure and simple.\n\nSomeone suggested reading aloud. That seems like a great idea! Read aloud to someone who speaks both English and your language so that they can help you with this. And remember, speak English with them, it will be tempting to speak your native language with them.\n\nYou will do better, with practice it will happen. My friend came here from Egypt and when he arrived, he could only read English but couldn't speak it. Three years later, his English was excellent. He watched tv, listened to the radio, read the paper, anything he could to improve. Be patient with yourself, it will happen for you too. Practice practice practice.
