When I learn a new language, I am great at mastering grammar. Written and reading proficiency in a language comes easily to me. However I get tongue-tied and start scrambling for vocabulary when it’s time to speak. There is plenty of research<\/a> out there that will point you to various approaches to learning a new language and almost all agree that opportunities for conversation are the best means of acquiring a new language or building on it.<\/p>\n
