[Revision of 4300 word article for conference submission]I learn English over half of my life. I learn English for fun, usually on my own. I visited also various classes, in school, in work or private classes. Unfortunately, scenario is always same: Open workbook full of grammar and start with lesson one. Conversation with other students in group with same knowledge level, at most with non native teacher, who was leading the class.
After these years, I found difficult speak English with people, who know my mother language, especially in group among more active people than me. That is why, I decided for one to one conversation with English native speaker.
I had already several conversations with Laura. I must say, it is very progressive and funny way for my spoken English. Meetings with Laura, are easy to arrange and skype video conference is simply great for this purpose. We do not need leave our warm houses, whether we are anywhere in the world. It is only pity, I did not find it earlier.
