Not bad in spite of a couple of typos (double-check your translations of I, female student, Britain, Russia and forget) and some grammar errors. Here are some general comments that you might find helpful:

- There's no space between و and the next word.
- أنْ ['an] always needs to be followed by a subjunctive verb.
- لأن [li-'anna] needs to be followed by an accusative noun or a personal suffix. E.g. لأنّني [li-'anna-ni] (= because I ...)

Thanks! Regarding the typos, I literally can't avoid them. My spelling has been slightly too influenced by my
writing colloquial Arabic, and therefore not really paying attention to how it should really be spelt, but most
importantly due to the fact that I use a French AZERTY keyboard, and that I can switch it to phonetic Arabic, so
the letters more or less match the Arabic ones, except that function is for QWERTY keyboqrds, and I therefore
completely mix them up, especially if I switch too quickly, so sorry for that in advance!

I also cannot really be bothered with diacritics, and I put the shadda and hamza when I remember where they
are, haha, I need to make an effort on that. Anyway, I'm here to learn, and I intend to make thousand more
mistakes so I can improve a tiny bit, and finally, thanks to whoever puts up with my Arabic!

Here's a very simple Arabic riddle that a friend told once:

في يوم من الايام أنا قابلت ولد و بنت في طريق. البنت قالت عن الولد: هو اخي. و لكن الولد قال عن البنت: هي بنت اختي.

كيف يمكنها ان تكون اخته و بنت اخته في نفس الوقت؟

So how's it possible?

BTW, when someone told it in a group of native speakers it stumped them all.

I look forward to seeing more writings from you here in the future. I corrected a few things in your sentence, some are typos, some are incorrect word choices. تدريب على is used more often to mean "training others", but if you want to say "practice", you can use أتدرب على, or even more common أمارس

أنا طالبة اللغة العربية‬ ‫وأدرسها بجامعة في بريطانيا‬، لكنني لا أتكلمها بشكل جيد وأريد أن أمارسها لأنني سأسافر إلى روسيا و لا أريد أن أنساها

Well, such riddle in Arabic can be solved in many ways, maybe brother بالرضاعة .
Otherwise it would be an incestuous riddle then.
