The first time!

Hi, my name is Desirée. I'm 22 years old and I'm from Spain. Right now, I'm learning english because in the future, I want to be a good teacher but I can't improve my english because in at this moment, I can't travel to other country countries. I would like to improve my english especially my speaking. Recently, I have done the PET ( Preliminary), but I have falledfailed speaking because I think that I was nervous. So, I hope to find some people who want help me.


Thank you so much!

It was quite good. Focus more on your use of punctuation. 

[Your English is very good.  I have modified some of the sentences so as to provide an alternative way of expressing the same information, while sounding more typical of what are common speech patterns used by native speakers.]

First time posting!

Hi, I'm Desirée! I'm a 22 year old from Spain. I'm currently learning English in the hopes that it may be beneficial towards a career in teaching.  At this point in time, I'm not in a position to travel to any English speaking countries, so my opportunities to practice English are limited. I would particularly like to improve my English speaking skills.  I had recently attempted the PET ( Preliminary), but failed on the speaking portion (due in part, I believe, to nerves).  All in all, I hope italki will be a effective way to practice and find the right guidance to help me achieve my language goals.

Thank you so much!

NOTE: In regards to failing on the PET, there are multiple ways to express nervousness.

"[I think I failed the speaking portion of the PET] due to nervousness", "...due to being nervous", "...due to my being nervous", "...due to my nervousness", "...due to nerves" are in fact all acceptable ways of suggesting nervousness as a cause.  Also, for instance, to say "I was shaking due to nerves" is in fact the same as "I was shaking due to my nervousness" --- this is, however, a nuanced (and rather colloquial) approach to expressing one's own nervousness, but is heard somewhat in American English and subsequently is worth noting.

Hola Desirée

No puedes viajar al extranjero pero sí que puedes usar Italki y también acudir a encuentros de intercambio de idiomas y/o English Corners en tu ciudad, así que no hay excusa para no mejorar ;)

Aparte de algunas cosas que puedes omitir (que he puesto entre paréntesis), también he incluido formas alternativas de expresar algunas ideas. Espero que sirva de ayuda.
