Morning Sonia! Thank you for your thoughts about this topic, it’s interesting to learn about everyone’s experiences and I enjoy your storytelling and use of vocabulary – nice!
Actually some of the words and expressions you are using are TOP! (scads of Rookie mistakes, coarse, stems from, refute … TOP TOP TOP!)
Some notes:
> Except for a few private lessons taken by an Italian lady … this sounds like the Italian lady did the lessons as the student. So you took the lessons, she gave them:
Except for a few private lessons from an Italian lady OR Except for a few private lessons taught by an Italian lady
I want to give you some pointers to make things sound even more natural:
> I feel British English more familiar, – British English feels more familiar to me
> I think that a whole life would not be enough – I think that a whole lifetime would not be enough
Please correct:
At school I have always studied French!
