My learning goals

I’m a Taiwanese medic currently taking a gap year in Manchester. I really like here and I hope to work in the uk after graduation. My current goals are to become fluent in conversation and to write in English more precisely without many mistakes.

My favorite topics

I enjoy deep conversation a lot, though I think my English level doesn’t really enable me to talk on those kind of topics fluently. I like to exchange with people cultural differences and life experiences.
