What country are you a new immigrant to? (I have recommended listening to VOA (Voice of America), but I won't know how well that works until somebody tells me. You could also listen to BBC.) (Rather than hearing, the term you are looking for is listening skills. Quote:

It is really a challenge for me to do such work, so I need to improve my English ASAP. My first impression is that you are not doing badly, but, of course, the devil is in the details. (It's those "little things" that cause the most trouble.) I suggest that you practice speaking the new phrases. Speak them many times. Also, I would appreciate any feedback on the usefulness of my advice. (Please tell me how useful you think it is.) So, what part of Canada do you live in? Do you live in British Columbia? :) |

| thanks RonBee, your suggestion is very useful for me! Most of the time,i don't know where the mistakes are and I don't know how to express myself accurately. I will try the method that you taught me and i will give you my feedback whether it is useful or not. I am living in Tornoto now,do you know much about this city? |
