Speaking with strangers Today I had a try to speak with strangers in English over Skype. There are a lot of places to speak with somebody to practice English these days, so everything sounds pretty good, but ... there was very strong feeling of stress when going to call to stranger first time. I don't know is it happens only with me, but I got a lesson that learning foreign language it isn't only about mind skills like memory, fast learning it is also about emotions. To overcome the stress become very important when you start speaking, at least for me. Since the problem have been revealed there is one thing to do is to figure out how to deal with that, which technique to use, how to convince yourself?
