English in my life

Hello class!! This week I will discuss how my process has been at learning English. I think my experience in English at the university has been a loving - hating relationship because English has always been for me as a cruel ghost. Nevertheless, I’m in love with this course because I have met many people from other parts of the world, and share with several teachers. The reason of it is that I started from the first and most basic English course (English One).

Being more specific, there has been a relationship of hatred because the English course is very difficult for me. I cannot understand the instructions and I have very little vocabulary which gives me a very hard time when I work in the blog, but I try, and as the title of my blog I think we can do it! About the things I need to improve, let’s be honest: there are a lots of them. Now that I go to the university, I find it difficult to improve because I need more time, but wishing for the best I hope to devote more time to study and achieve someday a good understanding and speaking of this global language.

This semester I spent many time watching short documentaries in English to train myself for the listening exam. I also used my knowledge of the language to read a few articles for my thesis, and it was really useful.

Well, I think this being my last blog I want to spend my last words (hahaha joke) to thank my classmates who were very patient with me, and especially my teacher Belen Farias who accompanied me on 3 of the 4 levels of English, I wish you the greatest happiness in this new period of your life.

A big hug!
