Hi all, I am new to this group. ;D Well, I was searching for a group where I can practice my English. I wished to have my own group but I am not good enough and it's too hard to find anyone interested in. So, my next choice is to find people who are interested in learning through Google. And here I am with you today. Thanks for all your efforts and I am glad to be with you. :)

How are you doing? It's a really good question. I've been asking myself this question for about a year now. :D And now I've got a friend have the same problem. He do not know where to start. Well, I can say that I partly have found my way. Sign up for sites that offers free email lessons or news letters, be a member of any forum that interests you and leave a comment and wait for replies, use YouTube videos, songs with lyrics, chat rooms, Fb groups for learning English, follow learning English sites on Twitter, start your own blog and write down what you've learned, ... should I continue? ;) There more and more that you can do. But now I am asking myself, does that work? o.O I can't do all those activities at once, and so do you. But that's what I've doing lately. :( when you try so hard, you get lost again. But you know what? The question is who to keep yourself motivated while you can't find any one who support you? :( Or even join you in your long journey. Maybe it just me. ;) I am not good in making friends or maybe in choosing them. However, sjunior, don't let anyone put you down and don't let yourself down either. Even if it looks so complicated sometimes, we still have to try and we should keep trying and trying till we find our way.

What I feel I need is a group to study or just to talk. But it's hard to find people with the same interests, time zone and the same free time. For instance, I have some time and tranquility just on weekends. Thank you.

And I would like to add that for me, writing is a time consuming task. If we just could talk and interact, we might get the most of our time. What do you think?
Thank you,

I have difficulties finding like-minded teachers on facebook who are willing to devote their free time interacting with learners via voice or video chats. Take me for example,I seldom use voice chat with any learners individually because if I do,I cannot multi-task my posts and comments in at least 5 groups I am involved with on facebook.
I myself prefer interacting via comments on Facebook or messages here in this group. I have gotten to know quite a few of you,Pablo,Ed (the moderator) ,Anurag,Eduardo Rocha,Rafael Oshiro,Mikhail,Andre,Simone,Vera,Jason Chan,Serdar,Charles,Ali,Alberto,Marcelo,etc this way and we have developed quite a strong bond to write freely to one another and have in-depth discussions on quite a few diversified topics during the last 3.5 years...
I used to hold Skype group talks (voice chats) about 3-4 times only and strictly during week days as I have a family with 2 little sons and it isn't suitable for me to talk on the weekend.
Since I asked Ed to make me admin yesterday,from now on this exchange of messages will be more intensive and hopefully productive !!!
I would love to see any of you taking ther initiatives to post anything that interests you : Learning tips,songs,videos,poems or articles to enhance our language skills will be highly appreciated !!!
Let's motivate one another and think and act positively !!! ;-)
Great day to you all !
Pauline

Well, I agree with Pablo. It's hard to find anyone who interested in being active learner. If you don't have much time for a voice chat or finding people on line, you can use sites like "voice thread " where you can make a group and everyone can join you by recording their comment. I see it efficient. But as you said, it's hard to find anyone interested in. :(
However, if you guys interested in, please let me know. Let's see if it work out.
I've already registered in voice thread. Looks interesting. Thank you! :) Have you tried it yet? Are you interested in create a study group with tools like that? Anyone else?

When replying to a message now you have the option to send the reply only to the author, in order to not spam to other members who receive all the post by email. Thank you, To do so, use the option 'reply to the author' instead of the option 'reply'. Thank you,
