My students often tell me that they lack opportunities to speak English with others.
I understand this difficulty but let's not ignore the many opportunities modern technology provides. It's now extremely easy to meet other interesting and intelligent people online who also wish to spend time practising English.
(By the way, don't think that only practice with native English speakers matters. Research has shown that interaction with other learners is a very important step in the development of proficiency in a second language.)
If you'd like me to connect you with other learners, send an email to teacher@englishteachinglive.com .
