Some tips to improve your English
Stick with one useful resource to study grammar and my favorite one is the Oxford Learner’s Grammar
Use Italki feature called “Notebook” and write entries about anything you want (see Pinterest for some inspo) and you’ll receive corrections by native speakers, super useful to improve your writing skills
Tandem and Hello Talk are perfect to practice your speaking, English native speakers are EVERYWHERE! Don’t be afraid and use only voice messages
To improve your pronunciation I highly recommend to check out some basic linguistic knowledge because it makes easier, this helped me a lot and I highly recommend to check @maripolyglot YouTube video about it
WORK ON YOUR VOCABULARY! Type “English vocabulary or vocab list” in the search field. You’ll thank me later~
Translate, translate, translate. With translation you adapt grammar concepts into your own native language, this actually helps making connection and boost your confidence

Working on my Cambridge Advanced Test before going out for a walk.
I’ve been feeling lazy lately but today I tried to catch up a little bit on my studies.
Hope your quarantine is going fine and you’re using this time to take care of yourself.
Cheers!

New book for tonight because I already finished the one that I was reading.
I have decided to challenge me and try to encourage my reading in different laguages so I learn more vocabulary.
To start motivated I chose a classic and short book like The Great Gatsby :)

I spent all my afternoon reading this pretty book.
It’s a book titled “Cartas de inverno” and written by Agustín Fernandez Paz.
I surely recommend it.

If you feel like you’ve seen this alread, that’s normal. This list of recommendation has been previously posted on my first account @praestantias which has been deleted for some reasons. So here I am, reposting it. 
Hating how elitist and eurocentric the dark academia community became, I would truly appreciate that you leave some recommendation of book written by people of color, for I noticed that I am guilty of the eurocentric part, but I am really want to educate myself and read more non-white books. 
Thank you for your suggestions!
