							| If you could find some part-time job as an interpreter, that would be perfect I guess. I love interpreting and it helps the fluency too. Other things I do to stay in the grove: read in English online, watch series online, chat in English, speak to my colleagues in English, communicate with Peace Corps volunteers from America who work where I live. I hope these ideas will help you. Don �t loose heart. Sophia |  27 Jun 2011

Well, dear desdemona85, I �ve faced the same problem and this is what I �ve been doing to tackle it: - I read online English newspapers almost daily. In fact, I �ve bookmarked two of them. - I often download movies -- even Korean and Taiwanese ones -, get English subtitles for them, wear headphones and enjoy watching them and learning English at the same time. If I come acoss a new word, I just look it up in my electonic dictionary and explain it. - I �ve friends on Facebook -- most of them are ESL teachers like me -- and though my mother tongue is Arabic, I make sure I always chat with them in English. I hope this will help. ebrahmi |  28 Jun 2011
