Hi, I'm Steve. I live in Brighton on the south coast of England. I love being outdoors - walking, cycling and running. I work in London so I spend quite a bit of time travelling on the train. This is good for learning vocabulary and grammar but not great for speaking practice. I started learning German in October 2017. I am still very much a beginner but I'm enjoying the challenge. At the moment I am working on core vocabulary and foundation grammar. My goal is to reach CEFR A2 level by the end of October 2019. I would like to get to B2 level in the next two or three years. I speak some French and Spanish which I learnt by taking classes and self study. I really enjoy learning languages but I am still nervous about speaking.
