HEY HELP NEEDED

hey ,dear friends in italki,i have to write a speech about analects which is due in three days. I have finished 70%.haha ,would u mind helping me correct it or adding some sentences. A millions thanksss!
Ladies and gentlemen, .Today, I would like to share my views of one saying that originates (comes) from the Analects which is one of most incredibly excellent chinese ancient classics. That saying goes like this : Learn extensively, strengthen your will constantly, ask questions earnestly and be diligent in thinking. Then, you are within the reach of virtue,” and I would like to talk more about the very first two sentences.
Speaking of learning extensively and strengthen your will, the very first thing that came upon my mind was traveling rather than the large number of books or courses that all the experts recommend us to read or take. Born as a chinese, we hardly have the opportunity to travel much until we graduate from high school, since we devote most of our time in studying and reading. There is a saying that I appreciate a lot, "either read or travel, your body or soul has to be on the road. Our soul has been on the road for around 20 years, so it is the high time that spared our body to the road."
Life is the best teacher or the most realistic one. What we learnt from numerous textbooks cannot be applied to the changing world. The answer to our (confusion) and doubt is to hit the road. Once you start out, you are put into a situation where you have no options left but to perfect yourself. You may have to learn to deal with the strangers, ask for directions, express your gratitude, seeing a map and depending on your own. Those things may seem to be petty easy, but they definately will be the bases for your future improvement. Those things could never ever be learnt from a textbook. Apart from this, during the process of traveling, you learn to be independent in which strengthens your will to some extent.
Two thousand years ago, Confucious traveled in different states of China to spread his thoughts. He witnessed the whole China with his eyes and measured it with his steps. He is a man of action.

Thanks to italki

Seven days ago, I saw the advertisement of italki from YouTube. I was excited because I have been trying to find a native speaker as a language partner for a long time but failed. However, italki made my dream come true. I have chatted with my language partners several times. It was said that talking with native speakers is the best way to be proficient in foreign languages. I feel that I have become more confident and fluent with the help of my language partners. Not only speaking skills but also a better understanding of the American culture are acquired via conversations with people, who have a totally different background.
Writing entries also benefit me a lot. It's kind of those people who have corrected my entries. I have learned some words, phrases, structure of sentences, etc. from corrections. I also feel happy to correct Chinese entries, which are written by people who learn Chinese as a second language.
Thanks to italki, a fantastic website. Out of question, I will continue polish my skills of speaking and writing on this website.
