У меня слишком много партнеров языка прямо сейчас! Я желаю вам удачи обучения новый язык. I currently have so many language partners that it is impossible to talk to all of them in one week. I am willing to be your friend on italki, but I really do not have the time for any more language partners. I wish you success in your journey to speaking a new language. I have been keeping bees for 18 years and am interested in what people in other countries might do differently with their bees. I plan to visit Ukraine and and other Slavic countries in 2016 or 2017 and want to become conversational in Russian so I can get to know other beekeepers on my travels. I have been trying to learn Russian on my own with a couple of programs I purchased to no avail. What it comes down to is simply this: you need to speak with others to learn a new language. You must allow yourself to make mistakes while conversing in your target language so you can learn faster. I really like what Benny Lewis says, "Speak like Tarzan, don't be embarrassed and aim to make 200 mistakes a day." I don't know if I can make THAT many mistakes, but I will never speak another language if I do not try and allow myself to fail sometimes. I currently have so many language partners that it is impossible to talk to all of them in one week. I am willing to be your friend on italki, but I really do not have the time for any more language partners. I wish you success in your journey to speaking a new language.

         Thanks everyone for the recent comments. After trying four different russian teachers/tutors I finally settled on two of the tutors. When I noticed some repeating of lesson topics between them I got them in touch with each other. Since then they have stayed in communication and my learning has definately benefitted.

         About a month ago decided to get something more formalized and started working with a certified Russian teacher. Although he has repeated sopme of the things I have already gone over with my tutors I feel that it has only re-inforced that knowledge. It has definately helped my understanding of some of the grammar that has been alluding me. :)

    The fastest way to learn any language is to hire a professional teacher. There are many svsilsble here on italki. A slower (and less expensive) way is to find a language partner (or several) and talk to them on Skype. There are a lot of people that would be willing to help you learn English if you help them learn Chinese. Just look in the community tab for language partners and send them a request. Good luck))

    I have only been a member of italki for 8 days and have 4 language partners that I talk to on Skype. Even though I do not know much of my target language they have all been very helpful and each one has taught me a little.

    There is the golden autumn is in my town!

    Hi,dear! There is the golden autumn is in my town! The trees are like they are from a fairy tale! The sun plays with leafs leaves. But me I am sad despite of this magnificence. I would like some heat. A little of heat of human communication, understanding, care and, of course., a little love. Today I would like to write to you. Do you like the autumn? I want to bring you a cup of tea, and wrap yourself in a warm blanket, and watch a good old film (movie could be used here instead of film). Together. You and me I. With best regards.

    Little advice

    I want to give advice to people, who are starting to learn the a foreign language. Try to read childrens books., But but not a fairy tales., Because because there are a many old words in the fairy tales. That that we are not use using today. Try to read a small stories instead.

    Is it correctly?

    - Have you ever loved a man (woman) from another country?
    - It would be very interesting. It has would be necessary to know have a common language necessary.

    It depends on what roots you have put down in your home town and also what is waiting for you when you leave. If you have a lot of loved ones and family it can be very hard indeed. I was in the USA Navy for 20 years and at first it was hard on my spirit when I would think of home. After a year or two I did not feel pain when I thought of home. 20 years later when I retired from the Navy I returned to my home town and it seemed like everything was different. It had grown a lot while I was away and parts of the town were no longer recognizable. What I came to realize was the not only had the town changed, so had I. Now I live in a small town about 50 miles from where I was raised and am happy with my life. Just know that even if you stay both you and your home town will change. Also there can be a much better world waiting for you elsewhere. You will be homesick for a while but that will pass.
