    It's extremely hard try to learn English

    Sometimes a I feel frustated when I hear some partners in my English class speak fluently, I try to be fluent but it's tough, I can write it and listen to it but when I have to talk, my god! I think word by word to link a sentence, I don't know how what to do to improve my speaking.


    Hey! Don't stress out. It will come with time. Best of luck!

    How to write the sentence in different ways?

    Here is the sentence: "She is an only child" (1).
    Can I rewrite this like "She has been an only child?" or can I change the sentence (1) using the verb "have"?


    Hello there! If you say "has been" you are switching tenses, so it would have a different meaning. However, it doesn't make sense to say someone "has been an only child." You can say something like "She was an only child until her mom had another baby," but I'm not sure what the context is.

    Brunch Na fim de semana passado eu fui para "brunch" com minha amigas. Na cidades grandes, em particular, Nova porque, amigos conhecem para brunch no sábado ou domingo. Este é um tempo para comer entre café da manhã e almoço, geralmente entre as 1 PM and 3 PM. (breakfast + lunch = brunch) Restaurantes desenvolveram um cardápio especial só para brunch, com alimentos tipo: panquecas com frutas ou chocolate, pratos de ovos, e frango com waffles. Mas a primeira coisa que sempre pedir é uma mimosa! Alguns restaurantes estão muito popular e você poderia 1-3 horas para ser sentado. A longa espera, no entanto, não impede ninguém, ele só confirma a quão bom o restaurante. Se voce quer visita Nove lorque, eu definitivamente recomendado ter brunch! This past weekend I went to brunch with my friends. In big cities, in particular, New York, friends meet for brunch on Saturday or Sunday. This is a time to eat between breakfast and lunch, generally between 1PM and 3PM. (breakfast + lunch = brunch) Restaurants have developed a special menu only for brunch with food like: pancakes with fruit or chocolate, egg dishes, and chicken and waffles. But the first thing you always order is a mimosa! Some restaurants are very popular and you can wait 1-3 hours to be seated. The long wait, however, does not stop anyone, it only confirms how good the restaurant it. If you want to visit New York, I definitely recommend to have brunch!

    My Hobbies!

    I have several hobbies. They´re; running, listening to music and reading. I don´t know exactly who is the biggest. (what is my favorite?)There is one a time that I prefer, for example, the running. The Running is fantastic because you get in shape, you can think about your life, you can make plans for your future and talk to yourself. In other moments, I prefer listening music. Especially music in English. It is a great opportunity to improve my English skills such as listening and speaking. And you can make a journey through the music. I don´t like that music when the tune is pretty catchy because cuz I can´t get it out of my head. I got Spotify. My music subscription lets me listen to millions of songs at a cheap rate. Using it I stream digital music over the internet and I don´t have to download it into my computer. As all we know, It´s against the law to share music for free. On In a cloudy or rainy days, I love to read. I´m able to read absolutely everything. I read the news in the newspaper but only in digital not in printed. I read books in English and in Brazilian Portuguese. My favorite kinds of books areis fiction. I challenge myself. I must read two or three books a month. Currently, I prefer to read books in English. I'm sure that I need to improve my velocity reading.(We would say something like, "I need to read faster" or something like this.) But that is another battle.

    Great paragraph!

    Different experiences to learn English

    Since I came back to study English a few months ago, I realized that this time it seems different to me. to me different. Now, I am feeling excited to learn more and more. I thought that studying English in at school was boring, because I had to study grammar almost every class. It made me feel stuck when I had to speak or write. Currently, I’ve been studying at home on Italki and I have the opportunity to meet a co-traveller once a week that I can only talk to her only in English, because she don’t understand anything in Portuguese.*(See below) I think that it is great way to improve my English skills because I have no option  other than unless to speak in English. We talked about a lot of different things. She gave me some recommendations of books to read and I had great experience doing this, because we could discuss about the books that I had read. Another day she suggested me to do a presentation talking about the places there are to visit in my city. I did it! I felt great doing this. I realized that my abilities by reading, speaking, writing and listening are improving. I really want to continue to do it this way because every class we will have different things to do.


    * This one is hard to correct as is. My suggestion:

    ...and I also have the opportunity to meet with a co-traveller once a week and speak only in english because she doesn't understand anything in Portuguese.


    Nice job! I agree, grammar is boring...and very difficult!
