- I personally just don’t use the community feature of italki much even though I use italki weekly. I’m here mainly for the private classes, because my main goal is to improve listening and speaking skills, not reading and writing. This is the first time I’ve checked the italki community posts in months, even though I have italki lessons almost every week. I guess I prefer platforms like Discord for text conversation and there are several discord communities for language learning. Discord has several benefits compared to italki, namely -there’s more anonymity so I feel more comfortable telling stories since my name isn’t attached -there’s no money involved so I don’t have to sift through posts made by teachers trying to get more students (even though there is the occasional bot or troll) -it’s more continuous like a natural progression of conversation rather than a series of posts0 votedNovember 14, 20220
- It was a sunny and beautiful Valentine's Day. I was visited BY my mum in the morning and went back home to prepare some special gifts for three lovely sisters. I love floral decorationS and I like to helping people design special presents FOR their beloved person. ("loved ones" sounds more natural than "beloved person") Due to the Eco-friendly concept, these are natural preserved flowers 🌹which are hand-picked and cut at the peak of blooming beauty, then delivered to the factory for further sorting, grading, and finally processing. This preservation process allows the flowers 🌹to maintain their beautIFUL, soft and delicate appearance for a long time, around three to five years. Do you like flowerS? Who IS interestED in preserved flowerS? Who wantS to practice English with me? Please feel free to add me as your friend and let's practice together! 🌹 #please correct my grammar #happy Valentine's day0 votedFebruary 15, 20213
- I thought it might be interesting for other students to learn a little bit more about traditions of the Russian. That's why today I decided to tell you how we celebrate New Year in Russia.🎄😊To answer all the questions I anticipate to appear, I have to point out that celebrating Christmas isn't a venerable tradition that is revered by every single family here. The reason can be found in the history of the two branches of Christianity that, due to some particular factors, became separated from each other many years ago. To begin with, celebrating this amazing holiday comprises many small details. First of all, the process of preparation for this wondrous day begins much earlier before the actual New Year's Eve. Everyone is preparing some presents for a family, buying gorgeous pieces of clothing, and so much more! So the magical atmosphere spreads all over the country, filling each heart with warmth and love! When this amazing day, finally, comes, everyone starts preparing delectable dishes. The most famous salad cooked for the New Year's Eve is called "Оливье" and includes all sorts of tasty ingredients. We also cook another salad called "Селёдка под шубой". I have to admit I don't like either of them. Then the celebration begins! Everyone is eating, getting presents and giving them to beloved as well! Finally, the President of the country gives its citizens a traditional speech! A lot of families are buying some fireworks and then set them off to celebrate the beginning of the New Year! I thinks it's also such an incredible opportunity to make your New Year's resolution and start doing something new! During these splendid days you're provided with a tremendous amount of energy and motivation! So every single year I hope the next one will be better. But the only person I can rely upon in this case is me. I hope it was interesting for you to learn a bit more about my country and its traditions, though it wasn't easy to describe everything in only one post!0 votedDecember 28, 20202
