English Language Challenges

I must admit that it has never been too complicated for me to have to learn or read english, although I often forget certain words that make reading difficult.

The blogs that we have been writing during the semester have helped me a lot in re-understanding and knowing the meaning of several words, it makes it much easier for me to write and read.

I may come to understand the texts in english, but I have always had problems to listen to it, many times I try to practice that part while watching a series, movie or videos, which has helped me a lot. Also the other thing that has helped me is speaking in english with friends or with my aunt. I remember once I was talking almost all day with a friend in english and later when I was watching series I could understand perfectly without subtitles and I almost answered my parents in english instead of spanish, it was as if my brain always thought about another language that was not the native (tell me I'm not the only one who has been through this).

I would really like to speak english fluently, because as I said in previous posts, I would like to go live in the United States, work there, also travel to other countries and english knowledge would help me a lot in being able to communicate, since it is the universal language.

To accomplish this, I try to practice my english as consistently as possible, especially listening. It's a little difficult to practice at home, 'cause in my family they do not understand english very much. The other thing, I thought about going to Chicago for a while in a few more years with my cousins ​​to practice our english there.
