1) Because that would give me the opportunity to get a good job in the future and I would give to my family a better life.
ReplyDelete2) I think that one of them would be that I don't have someone who I can practice with in my house. And that I am shy at class, and I don't talk enough so, I can't improve my pronunciation.
3) I would say to him/her that English can help him/her to grow up as a person. Additionally, he/she can give to his/her the opportunity to have a better health while they acquire more knowledge.
Welcome Violeta try to not to be so shy. I know that you know a lot of, be relax and enjoy this oportunity you have to learn and parctice another language
DeleteHi violeta, I think that you are very smart, I can know it when I read and listen the sentences that you say; you don´t have to be shy,because we are a little group, you can be yourself with us, anyone is going to say nothing if you do a mistake, we are learning so, do your best efford.
DeleteVioleta I agree with Erik Bautista, you are so smart, and you have a very good pronunciation, maybe you don't know us too much yet. And you have a great teacher this semester, so I invite you to be more friendly with us, I'm the oldest in class and sometimes the younger ones speaks me and look me like their's mother but I'm not. I used to be like the nerd of the class, but I'm not any more. So welcome to our class.
DeleteThanks to all of you. I´ll try to be less shy and share more with you, because if I want to improve my English this is the only place where I can practice, and I know that you can help me.
DeleteThank you.
I am so happy to see that you are being very well welcomed by your classmates. That is definitely important, because you will advance faster.
DeleteI want to become English proficient, because I like english, is my time to be free and relaxed
ReplyDeleteSome of the obstacles I have during my English learning process are: a) I have a lot of work, b) I try to practics three time on week but I feel exahusted for my job
If I had to motivate someone who does not like English, I can show to he/she how you could learn playing or listening music. It's a coloquial way to motivate someone
it is correct Yeshua; music, movies or series could be a good way to start to learn English.
DeleteI agree with you Erik, because there you practice listening and reading, if you watch a movie with subtitles or the lyrics of a song. So, it's a good idea.
DeleteI would also like to add that the more exposure you have to the language, and the more you learn about its culture, the better you will speak. Believe me!
DeleteWhy do you want to become English proficient?
ReplyDeleteBecause the English lenguaje have a lot of benefics in this time, I could get a job that maybe could give me more money than a normal job, also Now I know that learn new lenguajes help to avoid diferents types of Mental illness.
What are some obstacles you have faced during you English learning process?
Maybe the biggest obstacles that I had for learn English could be the time because my life like student is very busy, and I have to say that before to be in the University, I had not interest for learn it.
How can you motivate someone who does not like English?
I can motivate to others to learn English telling that It lenguaje its very easy (if whe compare with another lenguajes like the japannese) and learn other lenguajes is very healthy.
About the first question, I want to become a english proficent, because knowing english apens a lot of literature in any theme. However in many countries if I have the oportunity to travel most of tourist cities have english speakers. Because of doing buisines the english is mandatory.
ReplyDeleteAs a result of this considerations I decide to finish my english studies even though that I am not in the middle of the age of the regular students.
Writing and speaking english is important due to exercise the brain.
During this process I have faced money resoruces because of I have family, house and other obligations more important of studing a second language, in spite of wasting money in superficial stuff I optimize the economic resources ro achive this goal.
Time is another problem but in order to improve my english I sacrifice meetings or hobies owing to do my excercises and speak fluently.
The last question is the worst because if someone doesn't like english, I think that is impossible to motivate him or her. However if the problem is that the student has a bad teacher, bad enviroment, wrong motivations, in order to improve those defaults maybe changing the academy, the enviroment or the theacher it could be helpful.
Therefore study english is a personal process and a personal effort, that depends of willing, the time, sources, and everything comes alone.
1. I want to become a English Proficient because of two very important reasons:
ReplyDeleteThe first one because I would like to be a bilingual person
The second one because I would like to apply for an scholarship when I graduate from school next year.
2. Sometimes I think that I don´t put a lot of effort to the things that I have to do, another thing that is an obstacle is that I don´t trust in me so that influence not only English but also in my daily life.
3. I would tell to the person that English opens the doors in a lot of things like in a job or an scholarship and their life could be easier because of knowing the language
