Language tasks for summer
It's time to make the final push. In September my own year of All the things British will come to an end so the next 2 and half monthes will be aimed at total immersion in English in every sphere possible.
From previous experience I can say that most notably my English suffered from lack of collocational competence. First on the list, fix this problem. Second, grammar, it can never be too much. I will try to use both by writing entries on italki whenever possible. I always somehow managed to skip pronounciation part this time I won't. Speaking. I'm not a great fan of this even in my native language, not quite sure I must force myself in doing this in English. Well, odds are, speaking won't be my priority.

Language tasks for summer
It's time to make the final push. In September, my own year of All the all things British will come to an end, so the next 2 and half two-and-a-half months months will be aimed at total immersion in English in every sphere** possible.From previous experience I can say that most notably my English has suffered from a lack of collocational competence. First on the list, fix this problem. Second, practicing proper grammar, it can never be too much emphasised enough (or can never be overemphasised). I will try to use focus on (or attend to) both by writing entries on italki whenever possible. I also always somehow managed to skip practicing pronunciation pronunciation part this time but beginning now, I won't. Speaking. I'm not a great fan of this even in my native language, and I'm not quite sure I must force myself in doing to do this in English. Well, odds are, speaking won't be my priority.
** I'm a speaker of American English and we'd be more likely to say "in every realm possible" or "in every way possible". The word "sphere" may be the best word in British English, I don't know.
