Smile Hola/Hello
Hello everyone,

My name is Lawrence (Lorenzo in Spanish/Castillian). I am (24) twenty four years old and I have been studying Spanish on and off since high school. I am pretty good at reading it to myself and out loud but I have trouble speaking and writing it. My ancestory is Italian American.

Hola todos,

Me llamo Lawrence (Lorenzo en espanol/castellano). Tengo (24) veinticuatro y hace liceo que estudio espanol de vez en cuando. Puedo leer espanol muy bien pero no hablo u escribir bien. Mi origen es italiano americano.

My English relates what I want to say about my Spanish speaking, reading, and writing abilities better than my Spanish does. Please correct my Spanish as I go along.

¡Ciao Lorenzo, benvenuto!
He marcado algunas correcciones en rojo, y sugerencias en azul.
Espero que las entiendas y te sirvan de ayuda.
En España, cuando le hablamos a alguien por su nombre (Elaina, Lorenzo...) normalmente le tuteamos (usamos "tú" en vez de la forma con "usted".)
Si hablara contigo formalmente, usaría tu apellido, Sr. [Mr.] Lorenzetti (inventing an Italian second name here, hope you don't mind!)
Si hablase con usted formalmente, usaría su apellido, Sr. [Mr.] Lorenzetti.

Welcome.

Io ho fatto un corso d'italiano alcuni anni fa, ma io credo que ho dimenticato tutto, sebbene a volte io posso sentire parlare l'italiano e credo que capisco 'quasi' tutto (benne, forse 'quasi' é troppo).

Estupendo, "acento" es siempre masculino como nombre.
