Trying to find a way I believe that fluency in a language can only be achieved when we decide to seriously take up the challenge of the conversation. This is the point that scares most students and it is not hard to understand. In my first attempt to speak English with an American native, I was understanding many words that I was listening, but I could only whisper a few small sounds. I was so nervous and I could not join simple words in a single sentence . The second attempt was a little better, but far from being satisfactory. The fear fell slightly this time, but my theoretical knowledge of several hours of study let me down and it was not enough for a decent conversation, much less fluent. At least I realized that a path for me would be to try speaking more and more and maybe think less. The first and biggest challenge of all is to understand other people and also be understood even making several mistakes of grammar or pronunciation, does not matter. The fact is that if you can face this stage I believe you're on your way. That's certainly what I'm trying to do and I hope to find more people to practice in order to achieve fluency in the language.
