Experiences Yesterday I went to an English class with Finnish people. In the begginig was strange because they only speak in Finnish, everyone were afraid of speak in English. I was nervous about 2 reasons: 1) I was a new person, totally diferent, in a group where everyone knew each other 2) I forgot all my English when I came at class. Whatever the time was going on I became more confident and started to talk with a student. Was good because his english was not good nether, so we tried together set a conversation. The worst part is the book, because they are studing in a Finnish book and I didn't get anything. Anyway, I'm thinking about look for other kind of learning, but was a good experience.

Yesterday I went to an English class with some Finnish people. In the beginning, it was a bit strange because everyone only spoke in Finnish, all of them afraid to speak in English. I was nervous due to 2 reasons: 1) I was a new person, totally diferent from the others, entering a group where everyone already knew each other 2) I forgot everything I knew about English when I came to this class. However, as time went on, I became more confident and started to chat with another student. This worked out well because his english was not good either, so we worked together to start a conversation. The worst part was the book, because we had to study from a Finnish book, so I couldn't understand anything. As a result, I'm thinking about looking for a different kind of learning, but this was still a good experience.

Sounds like you had a bad experience. Maybe you can find a good teacher here on italki who also speaks your native language!

You're very courageous! I'm finding one new language to be more than enough of a challenge, never mind two at the same time.

I also had a similar experience when I started learning English. I think you should find a teacher here in italki and give it a try. Maybe some private classes can make you feel more confident on speaking.
