English Language Challenges

I still remember my first experience with English when I was just a 5 years old child: I had to do an exhibition about an animal, and that animal was the duck…

Now, almost fifteen years later, I realize about how much experiences I had with English and how it has been along my life. Now more than ever, English is important part in my life, allows me to learn a lot of things that you can’t find in Spanish or to access information from direct sources in less time.

Learning English at university has been a great experience, because I had taken distance from English in the last year and I wanted to get as closer as I could, and in the English classes I saw an opportunity, so I took it. I have practiced the four language skills and realized about some weaknesses in my English.

The use of blogs was not something new for me, but writing in English was very helpful to me, because I don’t write in English that often, but I have learnt a lot with the blogs. However, there are a few things I need to improve, as some specific aspects of grammar, to read more about connectors in English (that has been a problem for me since high school until now) and to extend my vocabulary so I can use English with more versatility.

English is very useful to me, from reading scientific papers to speak with people at the other side of Earth. I think speaking English gives you a lot of opportunities in many aspects, from learning and investigation to socializing with people around the world.
