Sometimes I also practice speaking English with my parents. Near my house has a foreigner's family. Sometimes I also talk in English with them. I talk to them quite comfortably, at first I had some grammatical errors and didn't speak fluently, but gradually, my speaking ability got better. My dream is to study in Australia.
