Post 8 > English Language Challenges

Hi everyone,

Well, I think that these English subjects I have taken at university have helped me a lot to improve. Although at high school I also learned English, now at the university I developed better reading and listening comprehension, I also use words and expressions better in a conversation. My pronunciation also improves a lot thanks to the activities we develop, especially the videos.

By writing blogs weekly I have been able to improve my writing, initially it was difficult for me to write thing on my own in English, because I wasn’t sure if the words and organization were the right ones, but this activity made me accustomed and now I can write more safely in English.

I think that due to the pandemic and the fact that we couldn’t have face-to-face classes, I wasn’t able to develop as much spontaneously speaking in English, my pronunciation and writing improved, but I still find it difficult to speak, I lose concentration and I can’t speak fluently. The presence would have helped me with that, and I think this is the aspect that for the moment I must improve, I could practice with someone who speaks English or with myself out loud to get used to and improve my fluency.

These days I haven’t used much English outside class, only when I read or hear something I can understand it, but I don’t speak or practice it because no one else in my immediate environment speaks English, in addition, the time I have out of class is dedicated to work in other subjects.

Thanks for read,

Good bye.
