I have learned that in order to learn English well, what I need is not just accuracy or fluency. Accuracy and fluency should go with each other. To achieve the two goals, I should take every opportunity to put what I’ve got from the course book into real communication. However, the problem is that I am too shy to speak in front of strangers.
