My difficulty is when I read an English book

Hi to all.

I'm Ricky and this is my first notebook entry.

I'm a English Learner. I'm focused in a group of issues that it`s important to imprive my English learning.

Firstly reading. I'm a computing engineer and I've read a lot of technical books in English, of course. I know, in an advanced way, this vocabulary, but it's hard to me when I read the common language use.

Right now, I'm reading "Hackers and Painters" and my perfectionism doesn't let me to keep on reading, because I'd like to understand all of the words. What's going on with these?.
For me, this becomes a problem. I don't advance with the reading and I make myself thinkings like: "I don't know if this is the right way to improve my english".

As far as I know, i'm new in iTalki, these notebook entries are used for helping me with corrections and comments. So, here I am. I wait for your corrections and comments for my little problem.

Thank you in advance to all.

Hugs,
Ricky.


Comment: Reading an English Book, it is no use to know each word, just the whole meaning of paragraph, sometimes, one word is not this meaning in this paragraph
