I want to tell you about my experience learning English
I started learning
Engish in
March 2016 at a traditional school
. I went for
six months until I saw a job offer
at a bilingual call center and I thought
, "
Oh, I speak
English, I can apply
." BIG MISTAKE.
During my
interview
, I realized I knew NOTHING
. It was embarrassing. I made a lot of mistakes, I did not understand what the
interviewer was saying and I felt sad.
I started to look for online
English courses and I found a good one called "Open
English."
It is very popular in
Latin
America, with
American teachers
. By taking 2 classes per day, I improved my
English and after one year learning
English in that course I met my
American friend,
that one who d
id not speak ANY
Spanish
. That was so
great and useful to me because I was OBLIGATED to speak
English
all the time
. We used to talk on the phone every week
and I could learn a lot better because I
listened to
him the way he used every word and every phrase
. Unfortunately, we are not friends anymore but that is ok, his goal was to teach me
English in the most natural way and he did.
the lesson here is....
the best way to learn a language is by practicing, by speaking with someone who
is a native speaker of the language you are learning.
just in case you want to know, my level is b1. trying to reach a c2
I will be waiting for your corrections, I will try to write everyday so I can practice.
Notes:
Good job.
Languages (English, Spanish) are ALWAYS capitalized in English. This is true for countries, nationalities and adjectives related to countries and geographical areas (American, British, Latin American, etc)
Be careful with your punctuation. Look where I changed all your commas to periods!
todo el tiempo = all the time OR the whole time
She works all the time.
The whole time she lived in Chicago, she was homesick.
