Have you ever heard about Cambly? Cambly is a plataform to practice have classes with native professors! It's an amazing experience to speak with someone for 10 minutes. I believe every learner should put themselves out there and risk more. You speak better when you speak more.  You can use my code to get a 10 minutes experimental class, the website is this one here :  lara1308 v

Listen to radios from all over the world using this website . I am already listened to New Zealand's radios, Iceland's ones as well.  I highly recommend it to improve your listening skills. That's a good practice, because you can create an immersion environment in your own bedroom! Input is crucial to get better and/or faster outcomes!

Gostaria de começar um novo tópico no blog, para aqueles que desejam iniciar e/ou continuar a jornada como aprendiz em Língua Inglesa. Digo que isto serviria não para aqueles começam, pois a maioria dessas dicas são voltadas para a mudança de pensamento (mindset).  MINDSET Se livre de crenças limitantes do tipo "não consigo aprender", "inglês é muito difícil" e vários outros NÃOS! Reflita sobre seus objetivos para aprender inglês, quanto mais forte e claro o objetivo mais fácil será construir um plano e segui-lo.  Não se compare com os outros,cada pessoa está seguindo sua própria jornada. Alguns puderam estudar em escola particular ou foram para a Disney quando crianças, outros aprenderam com músicas, seriados ou videogame.  Não faça julgamento de valor quanto a pronúncia, escrita, ou outras habilidades de outra pessoa. Se você sabe, e se houver abertura se ofereça para ajudar a pessoa e reforçar seu aprendizado ativamente.  xoxo Wanderlust so...
