My experience learning English at the University is reduced
to only two semesters, because fortunately, when I give the test that would
tell us at what level we would stay, I was at level 3. I can say that my school
gave me a very basic base but anyway I appreciate it, because I was not in complete
blank.
The first half of this year I studied Pre-Intermediate
English with a very nice teacher, who empathized with students and tried to
make all the sessions enjoyable activities. As we are students, we are
learning, and I appreciate the patience and willingness that she had to teach
us.
I think that the practice speaking English improves our
level and makes us aware of our shortcomings in terms of grammar, to put
together a coherent sentence, and pronunciation. Yet these aspects are very
difficult to me, what is more, I think is what I'm weaker, I think I've
progressed. To improve I have thought about joining a group of people who agrees
online to practice English (or other languages) in a bar or pub. I think it can
be a fun and enriching experience at the same time.
On this semester, in which I am studying Intermediate
English, I've had a great time in the energetic classes with the teacher and
the activities proposed. We greatly appreciate that the teacher take into
account our opinion when an activity is proposed. If we have another proposal,
we can do it and there will be no
problem.
As for the blog, I can say that although sometimes it
propose interesting topics to write about, the posts have always been a
headache for me. I'm very slow because the ability to write properly, and does not seem that wrote Tarzan, is very difficult.
These days, the use of English is restricted to read
scientific paper, but in very few subjects. In those moments I want the
universal language was Spanish, haha.
