Nathália, provavelmente seu curso tem muito foco em gramática, o que já foi comprovado por especialistas na área de aprendizado de idiomas que não é um bom método pra quem está aprendendo um idioma, o mais importante é você praticar bastante seu listening e reading e somente depois que essas habilidades estiverem em um nível intermediário pra avançado você começa a praticar o speaking e writing, primeiro é o que chamamos de "input" e depois o "output". Eu pratico bastante meu listening com séries e filmes, no caso, eu estudo um episódio durante umas duas a três semanas, assistindo com legenda em português, depois com legenda em inglês e depois sem legendas. Esse método me ajudou bastante, comecei a focar nisso em novembro do ano passado (4 meses) e já notei um avanço enorme, em todas as habilidades, em abril do ano que vem eu vou fazer um intercambio de 1 mês pra reforçar meu aprendizado, acredito que até lá meu inglês estará muito melhor estudando dessa forma, já que em 4 meses já tive um avanço considerável. Tente estudar dessa forma também, no youtube há várias dicas.

Hi Nathalia, 

Listen, speak, read and write in English as often as you can. Keep speaking in English regardless of how embarrassing you feel. Read English books and observe how different grammar items and sentence structures are used in sentences. Post questions on Italki should you have a doubt about a certain grammar item. There are many friendly members here who are pleased to help you!

Keep it up!

Cheers, 
Lance
