It's time to make the my first post here.

My name is Anastasia. I'm 27 years old, and only now I begin I'm beginning to study English seriously.

I live in Russia, in the Urals. This is my homeland and I've never been abroad. I have a linguistic education but and my specialty is the Russian language, and but with English I have I'm having some difficulties.

Of course, I had English lessons at school and university. But I didn't like this language. I was bored, and I did my tasks carelessly.

Now I feel cut off from the whole world because I don't know English as good well as I would like. I want to read all the books that interest me. I want to communicate with foreigners and help them learn Russian. I want to watch movies without translation subtitles, because the translation often disfigures them loses the real meaning.

So, I've decided to participate in the project "Language Heroes". This is a program of self-study for 12 weeks.

Now is the second week of the course, and I repeat the am practicing repeating pronunciation. It would be great to find someone who could listen to the text I read and point out mistakes.

I've already got a couple of tips on HiNative. It turns out that I have problems with "-ing", for example. There's something to work on and I like it :)

**Great job! I didn't have too much to correct. Your grammer is very spot on but there were just some things that didn't seem very natural. You'll learn what is more natural with practice and corrections! :)

That's why I am here

Very well written with barely a mistake!
