write a diary 2-3 times a week about your daily life and read your writing out loud so you get comfortable speaking

A is my German friend ,now she is back in Germany,and she is the most hardest student for learning Chinese who I know. Almost every day she reads an article in Chinese and asks me to do her a favor to correct the pronunciation. One year ago, when she lived in SH,we knew each other in a cooking lesson, and she is very interested with learning all kinds of language especially for Chinese and want to know more about Chinese culture. So A always asks me to correct her Chinese accent, and she always feels sorry she asks me to help her everyday but can’t help me in return.
At that time,I was very impressed by her diligence and that also made me to learn sth.more, So, A taught me to learn German which is more difficult than English, Unfortunately, I gave up after two weeks’s learning .
She is not only hardest but also detail oriented person,one day we went shopping,I’m going to pay a skirt for my mother, but she stopped me after she raised it under light, and pointed out the small hole on it,I’m so happy to have a friend with A, now we still keep in touch by wechat,

I’m so happy to be friends with A. Now we still keep in touch by wechat, and she still pushes me every day to correct her Chinese accent.
