How to stop translating?
I am a Chinese native speaker and, like many Chinese people, learning English could never be has never been easy for me. Recently I found that every time when I wanted to say something, I was actually translating sentences from Chinese to English. It was OK okay at the beginning but now I feel that I am hitting the a wall. I want to improve and I know I have to stop translating. But it seems that I would starting doing the translating thing automatically every time when I was talking with other people. Only after the conversations could did I realize that I was translating again. Should Have any of you have met the same situation and do you have any way to overcome it? Many thanks to you!

I think you are being far too harsh on yourself. You are not using Chinese word order or phrases. Indeed, your English is very close to natural English. Whatever you are doing to learn English, it is working very well. Keep going! 加油!
