Hola! Hi! My name is Paloma, I´m learning English because I have always loved it and now I want to be a good English teacher. I would like to get the Certificate of Proficency in English as soon as possible :) My native language is Spanish and I´m willing to teach you if you want. I have lived in Sweden and Ireland for a year but I came back to my home town in the North of Spain. I love travelling, meeting new people, being with my friends and family, skiing... I´ve worked as a camera woman on tv for 6 years but I´m currently studing Education at University (yes, I´m one of those mature students who sit at the front of the class an ask many questions... XD ) I hope to find someone who want to help me to improve my English and who knows... maybe we can meet sometime.... xx Paloma

I have lived in Sweden and Ireland for a year but I came back to my home town in the North of Spain.

 

The meaning of this sentence is a little unclear. Did you spend one year each in Ireland and Sweden (for a total of two years), or did you spend a total of one year between both Ireland and Sweden?

 

Also, I don't think that "but" is the right conjunction between the two clauses. "And" might be more appropriate, or you could simply break up the one sentence into two sentences by adding a period after "year."

 

Finally, I would take a look at your choice of the present perfect for "I have lived..." The present perfect doesn't make sense given the phrase "for a year." You would say, "I lived [in a certain place] for a year and came back to Spain [at a certain time]." You would only use the present perfect if you were still living in Ireland or Sweden.

 

Overall, great job! I'm excited to read more from you.
