RE: A question for the non-native English speakers

in #education8 years ago

Well, i'm not a native speaker, i'm russian, but i studied english for more than 8 years both at school and at a private academy, so i think my level of english is quite high. Nevertheless, over the years, i had very few opportunities to practice it and only occasionaly i would read some articles in english or watch movies that are not dubbed in russian language. Even facebook is not that popular in Russia since we here use more VK, so the interaction with foreigner friends was never that much, only through whatsapp. Steemit permits me to write and read english and to develop my english skills because with time we tend to forget what we were taught.
