ENGLISH LANGUAGE CHALLENGES

My experience learning English in university has been much better than the experience I had at school, especially during this year. During school, teachers used to think that many subjects we already knew and never reinforced these subjects, but at the university it has been different. This semester, the teacher has reinforced many things that are necessary for us and that is really good. Also, has taught us many things that I personally did not know. So far I have liked it, because I have always wanted to learn the language well and in school I feel that I didn't have the opportunity to learn it well.

Personally, I think I need to increase my English vocabulary and adapt my hearing to the language, because many times I don't really understand when I listen in English (especially in listening tests). However, I think the blogs have helped me a lot in increasing my vocabulary, using "Linguee" and a translator for words I don't know I have learned many new words. 

Outside of English classes I usually use the language when watching movies and series in English, I always prefer the original language with Spanish subtitles. I have always preferred to watch movies and series this way because I don't usually like dubbed voices, but I have found that it has also helped me to learn new words. Another time when I use English outside of class is with my younger sister, when she has speaking exams she asks me to converse in English to practice.
