On another note, how long have you been speaking English? Your pronunciation and grammar is a lot better than some native speakers I know![]()
I'm glad you find the videos useful, Drake. About my English, well, I took my first lessons at primary school when I was 7 (2nd and 3rd grade). Then my family moved to another city -my hometown, actually- and my new school didn't have English for primary levels, so I had to wait until I got into high school. Those were four years studying English and two more studying French, but I think that what really helped me is that I like languages a lot. In fact, I feel very disappointed to see that so few musicians here can handle the English language decently since that isn't just a "hobby" nowadays. It's a true necessity. I feel so happy that I've been able to take advantage of the true power of the Internet thanks to my interest in English. Unfortunately, my listening skills are really weak compared with my reading and writing (both of which need improvement, of course). Thanks for your comments on my pronunciation! I know I can do it fine, but lack of practice makes my tongue to twist so often.
