The board above describe my weakest and my strongest english skills, from my point of view. I am a good reader: in my spare time, at home, on the tube, I enjoy reading everything I have handy. My vocabulary is not strong enough, but the meaning of a phrase could be helpful to find out the real word meaning.
My widest lack is on the fluency. I speak little in italian, even less in english! Only doing and doing again exercise, that is speaking, I could become more talkactive. Pronuciation may rise with the help of listening and speaking as well. I would like to hide my italian cadence even though it will need lot of time.
Often, it happens that I have to ask the question twice o three time until I understand properly when we are talking. This happens when the person I am speaking with has eighter a strong british accent or a bad pronunciation. Or perhaps because I am thoughtful, thinking back to another used word.
What I have to do is speaking all day long in english and thinking in english!
