Hello every body.
My name is David and I'm french. I joined this website with the goal of improving my writing expression. I've studied english for more than twenty years now. But I have to confess that, as a lot of little french students, I was not very involved during the first ten years: the years spent at school. It is just after I became an helicopter pilot (or during the course I attended for that) that I realized how much this language could be helpful and useful for my job. In fact it was essential So I decided to get more involved in learning english. I attended several courses, seize each occasions to talk in english. The main things which improve the most my skills was the time I spent embedded with American pilots during four months, without any french people to talk with around me. This "Texas time" (yes, those guys were all Texan. Quite difficult to decrypt the accent at the beginning ...) was a revelation that even if the vocabulary and even the syntax used to speak are not always correct, I'm able to have a conversation with natives. Since this moment, with a reenforce motivation, I've continued to work hard to enhance my skills. In three weeks, I'll take an exam to try to reach the C1 level. However even if my oral and written comprehension are quite good, my oral and written expression must be improved in order to be more fluid and closer from native language. That's why I'm here. Thanks to people who will take the time to help me by proofreading this text.

Hello every body.

My name is David and I'm fFrench.

I joined this website with the goal of improving my writing expression.skills (ou bien my written English)

I've studied english for more than twenty years now.

But I have to confess that, as a lot oflike many little fFrench students, I was not very involved duringengaged for the first ten years: (the years spent at school.)

It is justwas only after I became an helicopter pilot (or during the course I attended for that) that I realized how much this language could be helpful and useful for my job.

In fact it was essential. So, I decided to get more involved in learning eEnglish.

I attended several courses, seize each occasionsjumping at every opportunity to talk in eEnglish.

opportunity ou chance marchent beaucoup mieux ici que "occasion."

The main things which improve the mostd my skills the most was the time I spent embeddnlisted with American pilots duringfor four months, without any fFrench people to talk with around me.

Je ne sais pas ce que vous voulez dire par embedded. Engagé dans l'armée? (Enlisted)

Quite difficult to decryptunderstand the accent at the beginning ...) it was a revelation (to discover) that even if the vocabulary and even the syntax used to speak are not always correct, I'm able to have a conversation with native speakers.

"natives" est un mot péjoratif pour parler d'une population indigène...ajoutez le mot speakers :)

Since this moment, with a reenforceat time, with renewed motivation, I've continued to work hard to enhance my skills.

However even if my oral and written comprehension are quite good, my oral and written expression must be improved in order to be more fluid and closer from native language.sound more natural.

In reflecting afterwards, I realized that "embedded" is pretty common military lingo :) You can overlook my suggestion there. Goes to show you, even native speakers are still learning ;-)

Thank you very much for your suggestions. In this case embedded means : only surrounded by anglophones.
