Hey! Glad to see you're eager to learn languages also. In blue are the phrases that don't sound natural to me, and I have more detailed explanations below. In yellow are my corrections. Good luck with your studies!

"it collects so many new words for me" -- try something like: "it is where I collect all the new words I find"

"but I must slightly work" -- I actually don't know what you mean here...are you working part-time?

"I am not a shrink" -- Your use of "shrink" is strange to me...I have heard it used this way before, but it is so uncommon in my area of the US that I couldn't tell you what it means.

How to use news words in a next What did you mean by 'next'?... brainstorming 1

Hello everyone,

My name is Kateline and I live in come from Belgium. I’m hoping expecting to find here differents friends who can help me to improve my English.
Today, I will just explain you my first notebook; it collects so many news words for me. This sentence doesn't really make sense to me. I am not sure you are 'explaining' the notebook... is 'introducing' a better word? Also, I think you are 'using' new words, not that the notebook is 'collecting' them (you are collecting them then using them?)

I know I must beware of with grammar, conjugation, spelling and so on e. People do use the phrase 'beware of', e.g. 'beware of spelling mistakes'. In more ordinary usages, you might see signs outside houses which say 'Beware of the dog'. In this context, I think you might mean, 'pay attention to'
I am brimming with a desire to become fluent in English, almost like a native speaker. My new target is to speak fluently within 6 months (I think this is it will be possible). But I must slightly work also (for my job), so Italki seems perfect to combineate both these things. How does it combine both? Just curious. :-)
I am not a shrink What do you mean by 'shrink'?? 'Shrink' is a colloquial term for a psychiatrist usually. but I think with lots of work, I’m going to succeed achieve to success. In 6 months, you will be astonished by have a breathtakening with my level (or not lol). I want to tackle my understanding problem. I have been hanging back before writing this notebook because it’s a little bit confusing strange; I wanted use my news words but the common theme (or guideline it’s maybe better) is not really clear… What do you think about it ? How do you write your notebook?

Thank you very much for your help.

I think you can write about what you want in your notebook. It seems that some people set themselves a topic, and some people even post "essays" in their notebook. Some people write notebook entries which are a little like "diary entries". If you want to use some new words, how about writing practice sentences and then posting the sentences? I think you can write what you want in your notebook. So far, I have tended to use mine a bit like a "diary" except in French, but I think this is not effective for me. I think I'd prefer to set myself "assignments" and then post my assignments in the notebook.
