Blog 8: English Language Challenges

Hello everyone,

Today is the last blog post and I'm going to talk about my experience of learning English at university.

Well, this is the first course I took in English and besides was in zoom, I think that despite the difficulties that arose due to the national context, it was a good course and a good experience.

I liked learning English through audio and readings interesting, many of which I met for the first time in this class. It was also the first time that I blogged in my life and it was fun learning to do it and get to know you through blogs.

I think the main thing that I need to improve is speaking in English and the pronunciation. It is difficult for me because I get nervous when I must talk to someone, I lack confidence. I think this can be improved by practicing more, sometimes I talked to myself to practice xD.

In my daily life I use English regularly, especially when reading, which I think I am better at. By my career many papers are read in English, this has helped me a lot in reinforcing the language and it is becoming easier to read them. Also, I read manga and to advance chapters I read them in English.

Also, most of the songs I listen to are in English, although I don't listen to music every day, but I watch series and movies in English because I don't like dubbing. Sometimes, the series that I see regularly like Friends or Grey's Anatomy I only listen to because I see them when I do other things, so I don't see the subtitles.
