Speaking exercise

i am in a finance company. It is a local company. My job is auditing contracts and it’s very boring because the work is repeating/ I do this again and again. I want to go to England for graduate school. Learn history about British. I want to learn history about medieval history. So learning English is very essential/important for my study.

I searched the historical people/events from books called “Plantagenet”. In order to understand the book, i learn new words from the app that I’m using everyday. I learn the words about 37 each day. I don’t think it helps because i forget those words fast.

When i meet them, i escape because i get nervous so i can’t talk with them. I have to english and how to speak with them and listen to the teacher how to pronounce and talk.
