Last blog

Hello guys! This is my last blog and it’s about English, how much I learnt, how much is still missed and how I will keep practicing.

My experience learning English at university was very different than usual. I liked a lot because I really appreciate those people who I shared with and that was really fun. I think this course was pretty good because we had the chance to learn a lot about some cultures that we don’t associate to the English culture very often. One thing I would’ve liked to learn deeper is English applied to Dentistry, that would be really useful so if you can add it next year, you should for sure!

About the blogs, I think it was very good to have the opportunity to know other things about people I spend almost my whole time with because University is so time-absorbing that sometimes you don’t know your mate at all.

What aspects I think I must improve is some speaking skills because here is very difficult to practice that, even though we had our teacher drawing attention to us. I think the most successful way to improve your speaking is being surrounded by people who don’t understand your native language so you’re forced to do it because you have no alternatives.

How much am I using English outside the class? A lot!!, well, not that much compared with how I used to because a couple of years ago I used to call some friends from other countries and we had to talk in English because we speak different languages. I use English with some friends when we are in a dangerous situation, when we think there is someone who’s trying to steal, we talk in English to plan what we will do.

I use English when I listen to music or when I watch TV shows, I used to read some books in English but I don’t like to do it in Spanish either.

I use English when I’m drunk as well, I don’t know why but I’ve done it many times.

Well guys, that’s all, hope you liked it and I wish you can practice more English.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone!!!
