First notebook entry: Introducing myself
I'm Esraa an English literature student at third grade . I have been learning English for 10 years , but i learned how to write and read not how to speak .I feel shy to talk in English although i talk to myself in English most of the time . I think my problem is fearing grammar mistakes and mispronunciation , and sometimes the tense I use.Every year my problem increases because i grow older and find my friends using English all the time with more complicated vocabulary that I even do not know its meaning.

First notebook entry: Introducing myself
I'm Esraa, an a third year English literature student at third grade. I have been learning English for 10 years, but I only learned how to write and read, not how to speak. I am feel too shy to talk speak in English although I talk to myself in English most of the time. I think my problem is that I fearing making grammar mistakes and mispronunciations, and sometimes, the tenses I use. Every year my problem increases gets worse because I grow older and find my friends using English all the time with more complicated complex vocabulary that I even do not know its meaning.
Grades are used in elementary school.
English is not the easiest language to learn, but what REALLY helps with vocabulary is reading. Try finding a book you like in English and read it. It’s OK if you don’t understand everything at first just make sure yuou read it in it’s entirety :)
Good luck!

Imam,
Thank you so much for your advice. I do believe in mistakes but most of the time I don't accept failure or making mistakes in public. I already listen to English songs and watch movies so I think I have to move to the next step, which is talking with foreigners or native English speakers to practice and improve my spoken language.
Thank you again for your time. :)

well you should know that we wouldn't learn if we didn't make mistakes, we all did mistakes, got laughed at and that was felt like funny, cuz we learn, if u kept ur shyness u will stay still whire people around u will develop more, ur english is enough to make u handle a conversation, to have more confidence start with students like you, foreigners who learn english or who are not native, this way english will be your only way of communication, that will develop ur expression, then listen much to english songs movies programs etc, that will enhance ur comprehension and then the next step comes, talking to a native english speaker, then u will gain more confidence by practicing
