Hey everyone! Today's post is about how did I like this subject at university and about my English language challenges.
First of all, I did like it a lot this subject because it gave me the opportunity of practicing my English skills, and to learn more about this language, specially the practical part that we can’t get to practice a lot outside the classroom. I also learnt a lot about my classmates through their blogs, what were their thoughts and opinions about the topics, it was very interesting. Though sometimes I didn’t have much time to dedicate it, since I had tests or homework for my other classes, but I always enjoyed coming to the classes, at least on Tuesdays when we got to talk and practice our oral skills.
Actually I think this should be a mandatory class, because knowing a second language will help us a lot during our career and our jobs.
My English has a lot of grammar voids, so I need to improve that part, maybe checking some old English books from high school or trying to catch up with it. Since I want to take the TOEFL test next year I need to fill the voids.
I haven't used my English in a long time,  I mean sometimes I Skype with some friends from my exchange year or I chat with them on Facebook, but I realize, since I don't do it often, that when I do my English get kind of rusty and not as fluent as before. College doesn't give us much time to do something to improve our English since everything we read or listen is in Spanish, but maybe now that we are close to summer break I’ll read some, watch some movies or listen to music in English to improve it.
