Well, I may not be that fluent in speaking native english but I do know how to speak english words with a correct grammar and diction as well. I could be a friend who could help you with that.

Hi jenny. By reading your response, I don't find your english that bad. Since you're still starting to learn english, it's just normal for you to feel awkward with your words. Don't worry, all you need is to have a lot patience, while you're still trying to learn. Just feel free to send me a message if in case you need my help okay.

Hi Jenny, what is it that you would like to learn? Are you trying to improve your English to communicate better online? To be able to find a better job? Just because you want to learn? There are many ways you can improve your English, even watching old movies where people speak properly and do not use a lot of slang or other informal speech. To get started you should have a goal, so what would you like to do?

Hello,Canellita.At first,thank you so much for what you have adviced me.In fact,i often watching some american movies and listen to some beautiful songs and so on,but i find that most time i learn english by myself,so i do not know how to communicate with others well in english.I'm afraid what i said is something wrong in grammer or other else.So i want someone to help me correct my error in speaking english.To be honest,it's spend quite a long time for me to say those words above.Thank you again for listen to me.

Jenny, sorry for not replying sooner, I didn't get a notification that you had responded.
The first thing you should know about sharing English online like we are doing here on myLot is that punctuation is important for someone to understand what they read. It's great that you use periods (.) and commas (,), but you want to put a space ( ) after so that your words don't run together.
Never be afraid to say something wrong or that there is a problem with your grammar. If you want to work on it privately you can send me messages, we don't have to "talk" where everyone can read it.
It's ok if it takes you a long time, we are typing in myLot and not talking. There is no reason for anyone to be impatient with you. After you have practiced for a while you will find communicating in English will get much easier.

Hi Jenny. Welcome to MyLot. I am new here as well. Actually, I think your English is quite good. Where in China are you from? I have been to Shenzhen last November 2009. I would be glad to help you with your English. :-)
