Best utilization of platforms like italki
The best utilization of platforms like Italki is to explore every opportunity of having persons with whom one can have practice of conversation, be a language partner or a professional teacher. However, I've experienced that it's sometimes difficult to find sincere language partner as there are issues of punctuality, intensity of urge for learning etc. Therefore, I would recommend booking lessons with teachers who are paid for the same having a commitment. I would also recommend at least three lessons a week for sufficient amount of practice. Having a prior idea about the lesson is desirable, but too much preparation must be avoided, as it hinders natural flow of ideas or spontaneity. Corrections in this piece of writing are invited.
