Post Nº10: English Language Challenges


These are just some of the relevant things I did throughout my whole journey in learning, and later mastering the English language. You can increase your English vocabulary by thinking in English, practicing with a native speaker, reading newspapers, books, magazines, writing a diary/journal in English, using flashcards or apps with vocabulary on them, watching movies and TV shows and keeping a vocabulary book to help you remember the harder words, among many other ways. As with other skills, the only way to gain confidence in speaking English is to keep practicing. English is a difficult language to master and grammar is hard to master and even for native speakers, some grammatical points are debated often. As long as you can get the message across, that's the most important thing.

Firstly, stay motivated. When learning any new language, it is important to stay motivated and never give up on your goal of fluency. Secondly, stay committed to your language-learning goal by reminding yourself of how badly you want to achieve it. Think of all of the amazing experiences and opportunities that will be available to you once you've mastered the English language. Thirdly, practice every day. If you want to gain fluency quickly, you need to commit to practicing every day. You should never pass up an opportunity to speak English, as this is the most important thing you can do to gain fluency. As a result, your spoken and written English will flow much more naturally and fluently if you can just train your brain to think in English. Think of it as a switch, when it's time to communicate in English, you need to turn your English brain on and your mother language brain off.

Post Nº1: A Country I Would Like to Visit

Image
We all have a place that we would like to visit at least once in our lifetimes. For me, that place is Italy. There are many reasons why this country is one of my number one travel destinations. Its culture was born more than 2500 years ago. As a result, Italy is the home to prehistoric sites and ancient monuments. The language is also very beautiful, and the Italian food is without a doubt one of the best ones around the world. Furthermore, its capital Rome is so rich in art, culture, and architecture. It is well known for being one of the most wonderful cities in the world. When it comes to its attractions, the monuments that I would like to visit are the Colosseum and the Pantheon, a building that has been preserved for more than 2000 years. This monument shows the level of mastery in architecture by the ancient Romans.  Now it's your turn. What country would you like to visit?

Post Nº3: My Favorite TV Series

Image
My favorite TV series of all time is definitely Breaking Bad. It is available on Netflix and I have watched 3 times already and, every time I start watching it, I keep discovering new clues about the plot and new personality traits about the characters as well. Everything on this show is well executed, the acting, the direction of each episode and the dialogues. The usage of songs and background music is really interesting as well. Surely, it has a slow pace sometimes but, from the very first episode, you will get hooked. This TV series has the most emotionally charged, tragic and perfect finale and, if you watch it and you like it, it’s going to be hard to decide when to stop watching the episodes. It also shows how practical knowledge of Science is useful in ‘special’ ways, for instance, to become a millionaire or to escape from a tricky situation. Undoubtedly,  Heisenberg is one of my favorite fictional characters of all times. TASK Nº3 - My Favorite TV Series Instruc...

My favorite technological device is my laptop, I use it every day because is a really useful tool in my daily life as a teacher. With a good Internet connection, I can chat with friends from other countries, I can watch movies and TV series, I can download music or listen to it on streaming and I can watch or read the news around the world. One thing I like about my laptop is that I can use it as any other of my technological devices. For instance, I can see and edit the contents on my cellphone and my tablet from my laptop, without using any wires. In general, my laptop is one of the most important tools for my work since I use it to check and grade my students’ assignments, to plan and create my lessons, to check my students’ messages and to read their Blog posts, among others many other tasks. One of the software I use the most is Microsoft Office. The app I use on a daily basis is Microsoft PowerPoint because with it I prepare my lessons, but also it allows to ...
