I wanna find some English native speakers to make friends. I am going to further my study in USA, so I need to practice with other people to improve my oral English. Also, making some good friends is the happiest thing for me. In turn, I could do what I can to help you with any problems.

Michael, you were doing great during the session. You understood very well that cross-translation into native language is your main problem and you should use simultaneous repetition to overcome this barrier. If you will have any difficulties in this new activity for you, write me and we will discuss how to solve all the problems. Good Luck!

Your English is very good! Pay attention to prepositions and the use of verb tenses when you speak! Next time we can practise some speaking topics for the TOEFL and I can give you some tips for the exam.

Michael Young is already quite good in speaking English. He showed up earlier than the scheduled time which is good.

    Perhaps you can say" You are a blunt guy". Just use the words meaning blunt or stupid.

    What does " paint your ass" mean? Yeah, its' a slang between friends. I've seen it in the TV play 'supernatural'. It seems in that situation, it means save the situation.

    I like the name Rachel. It sounds pleasing both in English and Chinese.

    Answers above are fantastic! Of course different people have different answers. For me, I prefer team sports. First of all, generally playing time of team sports is longer than individual ones. For example, a football game could be as long as 90 min even if OT is not considered. But hardly any individual sports could be that long. I mean, this could be an general regular. Of course, exceptions exist. This is easy to understand because in team sports, all the memebers share the consumption of their strengths, which makes everyone last longer. For me, respectively, longer time means more happy because I always have such the feeling that sports really bring me some kind of original happiness. Also, communication is an important element during team sports. Just like the teamwork discussed above, communication could determine the victory. Take me for example, I love playing volleyball. During the games, sometimes we shout to communicate, sometimes we just use simple gesture, sometimes we don't use anything, but we know what other teammates would do. This kind of rapport, or we can call it tacit understanding, not only strengthen our friendship, but also raise the level of the matches. My last point is team sports are much more complicated than individual ones. Apart from commnication during the games, strategy, psychological factor, taking advantage of the game rules appropriately, these are all the factors that we must consider during the match. On the contratry, individual games put more emphasis on skills and talents, which directly make individual sports could not be so popular as team sports. Okay, that's my points of view. For me, I like playing team sports myself and watching team sports!

    Yeah, but I wanna tell you, with my own experience, nobody would laugh at poor English. Perhaps they would think your English is interesting, but they never laught at it. So if you get chances to express yourself, just speak out.<img alt="" src="http://www.italki.com/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif" />

    Wanna make friends? After this summer vacation, I would become a senior student. At the beginning of the last year of my university time, I could not help recalling thousands of moments that make me happy, exciting, confident or sad, frustrated, disappointed, the moments which filled my university time. That's me, a senior student of Nanjing University, majored in chemistry, interested in polymer science and engineering. My future plan is to further my study in USA, and I've already done some preparation such as GRE test and TOEFL test. Also, I haven't finished my homework, like choosing my graduate school and formal appliacation. Talking about my interest, I am a person with very wide range of interests. I like sports including ball games and outdoors. Biking, hiking, volleyball, tenis are my strong points. Also, I like talking with other people, I like thinking deeply about life or society. So I have wide range of friends, because I could find some common interests easily with any kind of person! I want to improve my oral English, which used to be my advantage. However, I did not have many chances to practice it, so now my oral English is somewhat weak. You know, only when you 'think' in one language can you speak it fluently and naturally, but I lack the chances of 'think' in English, so I turn to this website for help. I want to find some English native speakers, American best, to communicate with each other in English. Thank you!
