Areas for Improvement
利用網路資源練習

勤練發音和流利度Pronunciation Correctness and Fluency

發音：有些可以改的！例如-- “m” sound (雙唇閉); 易混淆的發音
([i]長短音), [e] [ei]等)

You need to practice your jaw muscle and tongue movement, so
reading out loud regularly helps. You can read out loud an article,
and then respond the issues expressed in the article.
