It's been two years!
It's been two years since last time I wrote here. When I started studying English I would practiced more reading and writing and almost nothing of listening and speaking. So I realized that method was unnatural. Children normally learn to listen and speak first, so that they can read and write later. That is the natural way of learning a language. So I stopped a while writing on Italk and took a lot of time listening to english. I think I've improved this skill during this two years, I don't understand everything yet, but I'm better than before.

Yes, it's from Persépolis. I haven't read the book yet, only watched the movie. But I want to read it soon, in english, of course.
Thanks for the detailed correction! :)

I'm trying to think where I've seen your avatar before. Is it from one of the Persepolis books? The second, I think...?

It's been two years since last time I wrote here. When I started studying English I would practise/practice* more reading and writing and almost nothing of listening and speaking. So I realized** that method was unnatural. Children normally learn to listen and speak first, so that they can read and write later. That is the natural way of learning a language. So I stopped a while writing on Italk for a while and took (or "spent") a lot of time listening to english. I think I've improved this skill during the last two years, I don't understand everything yet, but I'm better than before.*=In England, the verb is "practise" and the noun is "practice". In the US they are both written with a "c", but you definitely don't need the d on the end if you are using it after "would".
**This is fine in the US but in the UK you would want an s in place of the z
This is very good. I think listening is definitely helpful. I definitely think speaking or writing is important though because you force yourself to produce language, so I think it's great that you're back here again!
