My switch to italki. Hello all. I've used italki for one year. This website is very helpful when you want to improve your speaking. That is also a reason why I use it: to improve my speaking. After many years of learning english I realized that the best what a foreign language learner can do is to focus on speaking. However, alongside speaking skills I've wanted to work on my writing as well. I found the lang-8.com website, where native speakers (not only) correct your posts. At the beginning it seemed a nice website to me. To increase a likelihood of getting a correction you should correct posts of other users (written in polish in my case). Sounds good: win - win situation. Unfortunately there are few posts to correct in polish, so I struggled getting points for corrections. For that reason I gave up lang8 and I will try to post notes here, on italki. Have a nice day, Rafal
