Blog 12: English language challenges



It was nice to study again some English, it helped me fill some blank areas that time with no english courses caused. Studying this language it's not that hard for me because I'm always online lurking through sites that are in english, so I'm forcing myself to practice everyday.
I think I still need to improve my comprehension, both reading and listening. But I think that's just a matter of practice, because when I listen to people, native english speakers, talk it's a bit hard for me to understand every single word they say, they talk really fast. And when it comes to reading, I understand almost everything, but sometimes random words appear that might be a little to specific to remember its meaning.
Now, when it comes to my accent, I now it's not perfect and that it needs to improve a lot, but just like I said before, I think it's all a matter of practice.
Changing the subject, I think that the blogs helped me to be faster with my writing, what I mean is that I think in english not in spanish, therefore, the sentences come out a lot quicker than they used to. Also, I think it's important to share with the other classmates, and the blogs allow you to do that.
I think it's very hard to stay away from english on a daily basis. We are surrounded by english words and we use them all the time. So of course I try everyday to put my english in practice whenever I'm on my laptop working, or googling stuff, or doing a research for a future project.
