At the
University, I liked this subject quite a lot. Some opportunities, we were able
to express our thoughts at class, trying to make up ideas and justify them as
good as possible. That helped us to improve our fluency. Other times, we
exercised some vocabulary related to our career.
Activities
at class were kind of balanced, speaking a bout difficulty. We did different exercises, and we even played games.
It was nice. Nevertheless, I ´d say that the worst part of this subject was its
schedule.
About the
use of blogs, I liked it mainly because of its varied topics. We were allowed
to write anything coming into our minds, no matter if it was actually true, so
it was a perfect way to practice our skills in the language.
I think
that I still need to improve my fluency in English. A good way to do it is
learning more and more vocabulary; if I do that, I´d manage to make complete
ideas faster.
The problem
there is that I think it´s kind of an “eternal” task, considering that we are
not even speaking Spanish, our native language, correctly. It´s always new
words waiting to be learned, but we lack vocabulary even more each day. It´s
hard to do it in Spanish, it should be harder in English.
I´m not
using English that much outside of class. I suppose I just use it when I need
it, for example translating papers for my career. I also use it unconsciously
while watching a movie or listening music, because I like this language. This year
I used it to help my brother studying, that helped him a lot, because he
studies and works, it that was gratifying.
Right now,
knowing a little bit of English gives you more opportunities. I like studying it,
so there ´s nothing but benefits.
That would
be all, farewell.
