Post 10: English Language Challenges

We are reaching the end of a very long semester and we are also finishing with English 4, the last level that the university demands of us as journalism students, and the experience has been very positive.

First of all, when I started this year with the English course, I was very scared, I had not studied the language for two years. But I quickly remembered many things that I had forgotten, and I have managed to learn many new things.

I will be honest, I thought that the English course at this university would be of a low level. But that prejudice ended when I met the teachers and learned with the dynamics of the classes.

Also, my experience writing in blogs has been very good. Blogs have been an excellent way to re-develop my skills. In fact, I think that through blogs I have learned a lot, especially in terms of grammar and vocabulary.

On the other hand, I think the main challenge in the future is to speak more in English. Honestly, I do not like to speak in English, or rather, I get very nervous when I´m doing that. This is something that also happens to me in all subjects, I have always preferred to write. So, I want to venture more to speak in English without shame.

The problem is that outside of class, in the rest of the activities I do, I do not communicate in English, so I must find a way to do it in the future.


In conclusion, taking up the first part of this writing, my experience in English class has been very good and I hope to continue learning more of this language in the future.
