Hi Applesauce :)
I'll write in English and in French.
First of all, you're a man, aren't you? Then you should write "heureux" and not "heureuse" which is for women.Tout d'abord, tu es un homme, n'est-ce pas ? Dans ce cas, tu devrais écrire "heureux" et non "heureuse" qui s'utilise pour les femmes.
Here are a few other mistakes :
Voici quelques fautes restantes :
après un long temps -> après un long moment
ameliorer -> améliorer
habileté a parler -> habileté à parler
ca va être très amusant ! -> ça va être très amusant !
Lastly (pour finir) :
In French we leave spaces before " ! " and " : " but not before " , " and " . " unlike Enlish.
En français, on met des espaces avant les " ! " et les " : " mais pas devant les " , " et les " . " contrairement à l'anglais.
Enjoy your holidays ! If you want someone to talk French with I can help you. (I want to improve my English :))
Passe de bonnes vacances ! Si tu as envie de parler français avec quelqu'un, je peux t'aider. (Je veux améliorer mon anglais :))

Bonjour ! C'est ma première fois ici et je ne sais pas quoi faire, haha. J'aime apprendre langues mais je n'ai personne avec qui parler. J'étudie par moi même et maintenant je vais écrire ici pour améliorer mon français et mon anglais.
Good morning. It's my first time here and I don't know what I can do here, haha. I love learning languages but I don't have anyone to talk to. I study by myself and now I'll write here to improve my French and my English.If you don't understand my corrections, you can ask me questions. I would be happy to help you. :)

It's beneficial for startups for example. Concerning women-run... I don't know, I'm sorry.0 votedJune 27, 20160
- Hi :) If your sentence starts with "Talking of A" or "Speaking of A", it means the same : concerning, in terms of, regarding of, on the issue of A... I don't know if it's something English people say a lot, though. If it's not at the beginning of your sentence, I think Karen may be right. I've found written articles with sentences using "I am talking of" and "I'm speaking of" but that's probably not used much when it comes to talking.0 votedJune 27, 20162
Hello Jack !
Thank you for this article that makes me feel less negative about myself and my difficulties to study. It's definitely true that there are many pleasant ways to study - without even noticing sometimes - but we are always convinced we have to work a lot to improve and it can be demotivating. I think we both undervalue our capacities and want to try too hard because we compare with people who are already fluent and/or naturally gifted.
Your article is also helpful because it gives very simple advices that makes me feel like I can actually do it and that's very important because without self-confidence it's hard to do anything.
Merci from France !

The Walking Dead is an awesome TV show in my opinion. I have to admit the latest season seemed a bit boring to me but the first ones were so full of moments of stress, anxiety or high emotion, that I recommend watching it. It mainly deals with zombies of course but it also talks about human relations, rivalry and tensions relating to finding the best ways to federate people and make them cooperate to survive. You'll realise that it's not that easy because every human being has its own way to react to the hardships they encounter...

I'm an introvert myself and I guess the best way to improve is of course to talk - alone or with someone you feel confortable talking to begin with. That's not so easy to find, but maybe you can start with someone who does not know very well the language you study, it can help lower the pressure because you won't be afraid to make mistakes and it could make you feel like you can talk despite your nature.
Then, I think making mistakes is a way of learning - as long as you are aware of it and correct them. One of the hardest thing is to let go of the "I'll sound weird" or "I might say somethign wrong", it's complicated, but as they say, the one who never do something wrong, never learn from it as well as those who never ask questions stay "stupid" all their life instead of sounding stupid for a few minutes. (I don't like asking questions or making mistakes but actually it's very important in my opinion and I'm trying to change that.)
As for concrete efficient ways to master a language, I'd say that you should read articles, at least one per day to add vocabulary and new phrases to your own intern database (haha). You should.. hm... maybe make lists of words for different areas, but I guess the first things to do would be to master the most important grammar points and do exercises. I know, this is obvious, sorry for this, haha, but actually there are lots of ways to improve thanks to internet ressources : podcasts, etc...
I've been learning English for years now, though I've stopped for a looong while and I'd like to reach a level I've never got. What's the language you want to master, if you don't mind me asking ? :)
Good luck, you can do it !
