First Day on Italki

Today I've created a new account on this website. Though I still haven't got a language partner, I do look forward to finding some and start practicing English. I'm very interested in learning the rp accent, and most of all,  how to distinguish the different Uk's accents. Currently I can tell some differences between Posh, Cockney, Scottish and Irish accents, but I'd love to strengthen my knowledgre and learn new accents and their particular phonetic features. I also wish to improve my vocabulary by enriching it with slang words, phrasal verbs, idioms and terms which aren't usually taught in schools. Finally, since my dream job is to became a professional teacher of Italian for foreign learners, I'd love to help Italian students mastering the language, so I can start using what I am learning in university, and take note of what the most frequent mistakes are, how to correct them, which are the most effective teaching methods and what are the topics which learners prefer the most.
I do hope I will succeed in achieving all of this.
cheers

First day on Italki

Today I've created a new account on this website. "Although" I still haven't a language partner I do look forward to "finding" some and "starting" to "practice" english. I'm very interested in learning the rp accent ( whats this? ), and mostly how to distinguish "between the various" UK accents. Currently I can tell some differences between posh, cockney, scottish and irish ( Ireland is not part of the UK ) accents but I'd love to strengthen my knowledgre and learn new accents and their phonetic characteristic features. I also wish to improve my mental vocabulary by enriching it with slang words, phrasal verbs, idioms and terms which aren't usually taught in schools. Finally, since my dream job would be to became a professional italian teacher "to" foreign learners I'd love to help italian students mastering the language, so I can start applying what I am sudying in university, and take note of what are the most frequent mistakes, how to correct them, which are the most effective teaching methods and what are the topics which learners prefer the most.
I do hope I will succeed in achieving all of this.
