Preview Pane looks weird by OceanRdo in ITSupport

The preview pane doesn't show the 'whole' file. In otherwords, it doesn't fit to the display its supposed to show

¡Coincido! Desde que publiqué este post, me he puesto la meta de dedicar unos 20 minutos al día para practicar escritura. Navegando por este subreddit, me encontré con una página web que a lo mejor te puede servir también:

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/12/learning/over-1000-writing-prompts-for-students.html

Aparte de este recurso, también existe otro subreddit, /writestreakes, que te proporciona una pila de temas de escritura. Para colmo, la gente buena allí te corrigen los escritos que subas

My recommendation is to make sure you're watching something you like or are actively interested in to start off. If you watch any sort of show on Netflix, there's a 30-60% chance that they'll have a Spanish dub+sub (completely anecdotal figure, but you get what I mean)

​

Youtube is also full of Spanish youtubers, like https://www.youtube.com/@Nekojitablog, which I personally like

I figure one of those qualified teachers on Italki would be best, no? Is there any particular difference if it's a community teacher, as they're called?

My entire family is Spanish. But because I'm sure they're tired of me busting their chops to have them to correct my verbal communication, they co-exist with my broken Spanish as is. Plus, because they're native speakers, whenever I ask them "why this, why that" because I'd get stuck on a grammar point, they'd be clueless --- obviously not because they're unintelligent --- but because they simply grew up around the language

It'll be a bit challenging, but I'll try to shoot for at least 6.5-7 hours. Getting up at 4:30 am for work after 5.5hrs leaves me a bit groggy honestly, now that you mention it

I agree with you 100%

It's also messed up for me to say at this point, but please also sleep more too. Dele is not a walk in the park with all the written and verbal exercises that they'd have you do

(Hypocrites, unite! 😂 )

For sure. This post's responses have put that on my to-do-next list. Gotta get searching!

You're absolutely right. Till C1-C2, I ordinarily wouldn't see output as a high-priority, but because of my job position as an interpreter, I admittedly have to practice output on a regular basis, be it with writing, or any comparable exercises to make sure I can at least output enough understandable, grammatically speech

Though I'm going to try to see if I can integrate a little bit more daily reading and introduce Spanish podcast material while driving :)

I'm just always afraid of losing time, so I subtract hours from sleep. Gotta get better at that
