Decided to improve my skills I'm an IT guy who works in Belgium. You could think that I speak French or Dutch pretty well since both are official languages in the country. However I mostly speak English...and not as good as I would like. A few years ago I studied on my own and managed to pass the FCE exam, and now I made a new resolution: attempt to pass the CAE exam. I already have the basis and, actually, I'm not interested in improving my grammar skills since they're the topic of the exam. I just want to speak English better and understand native people as well. For this reason I decided to be back on italki. I already used this platform and found it very useful to share my texts with the community. Since I don't know what to speak about in this first article in my road to CAE, I'm simply telling you all my story. If you're reading this post, probably you're a native speaker and can help me. I'd like to improve my vocabulary (wording, expressions...) and listening skills. Despite I'm not much interested in grammar, I still have a few questions for natives but, well, we'll address that in the coming posts. My creativity is not good enough to continue to write, so that I'll close this text with the hope that you can help me with my English and I could help you with your Spanish. Best.
