Speaking and listening skills - How to improve it?
In this unit we are going to improve our speaking and listening skills. At school we usually practice grammar and vocabulary, but we don't talk that often. There are different reasons: because we are shy, maybe because we are afraid to make mistakes... or maybe other reasons. But the important thing when you are learning a language is to practice, talk to native people, listen music and watch movies in that language and the most important thing, if you have the opportunity to live in an English speaking country... you should go!
