YOYO English Club

Hello everyone, I'm Jerry
I'm glad to join this forum,
because there are many friends, resources and articles
that can help me to improve my English.
I live in Taoyuan but work in Taipei,
I commute between Taoyuan and Taipei every day.
I'm a outgoing person, I hope I could be you friend.
Thanks

Me, neither, when I first joined a meeting in YOYO.

I think that's a common problem for most of the English learners in Taiwan. What we need is to create or seize every opportunity to hone our speaking skills. Practice makes perfect.

Hi Jerry,

Don't worry. You've been brave enough to leave a message here. Why not continue your adventure and attend our gathering in person? I'm tongue-tied, either during group discussion or on the stage, time after time but no one have ever laughed at me for it. People are very nice here.
