Blog 6: English language challenges

I think I learned more English in university than in school. So it has served me a lot, blogging has helped too much to practice my writing. In addition to the fact that they are entertaining and it distracts me to read the blog of my colleagues, especially in the pandemic situation.

I need to improve my pronunciation and my listening skills, so I plan to watch more videos on youtube or series in the native language, English, and study the pronunciation between certain words that sound similar.

In general, I think it's difficult to practice my English, because I don't have anyone close to speak it with, with the classes I managed to practice a little, but during the rest of the year this is not possible. So even though it sounds strange, there are times when I speak English alone in my room, this has helped me a lot, to connect ideas, but not for my pronunciation. On the other hand, in class it was hard for me to speak, because I panic, especially when I speak with someone who knows a lot of English, so I need to improve my confidence

In general, learning languages ​​attracts me, so this year with the boredom of the pandemic, I downloaded an application where you can speak with native people or people who want to practice languages. In this app I met a boy, who lives in South Korea, we have been talking about 5 months. The only language we speak in common is English, because I know the basics of Korean and he doesn't know Spanish. This has helped me to practice my writing. But because of the time difference, we cannot talk much, only for a couple of hours, when here it is very early in the morning or very late at night.
