M: I need your advice on something, Michelle.

W: Sure. What is it?

M: I heard you speak more than one language, and I was wondering if you had any tips for me. How did you become so fluent in English?

W: It took a lot of hard work, but I was lucky enough to move to Canada when I was really young. It also helped that I already had some relatives from France living here who could help me. What are you trying to learn?

M: Well, I’m taking Spanish right now. My grades are at the top of the class, but I plan to go to a university in Spain in the future.

W: What seems to be the problem?

M: Class is easy. I’m not that worried about my reading level, and the basic conversation isn’t an issue. But how will I be able to write essays at the college level?

W: You just need to study more than what you learn in class.

M: You mean like paying someone to teach me on the weekends?

W: I mean you should read Spanish books, newspapers and other academic materials you can get your hands on.

M: Good idea.

W: You also should try joining chat rooms with native speakers. It’s totally free. I’ll give you a list of websites you can check out.

M: Thanks. That would be a big help.
