The world that I come from and reasons for wanting to improve my English.
I'm Sheila. I'm 37 years old and I'm studing English currently (It sounds better to say, 'I'm currently studying English'). When I was a teenager, my mother takes took me to an English academy. That was more than 20 years ago. This academy was the first in my town. In At that time it was said that English was more important for the future. Presently this idea is more than evident. My mother takes put/started* me in the right track. The problem was that I didn't continue spend much time in at the academy. (or - I didn't stay at the academy for very long).
*Idiom/Frase hecha - to put/start someone on the right track
The English of at my primary school and in the secondary school wasn't very good. The classes were in Spanish (my language) with much grammar and little speaking.
Afterwards I was without English studies much time.
Afterwards, I didn't study English for a long time.
OR
Afterwards, I went for a long time without studying English.
Now, I'm unemployed and I'm looking for a job. Any possible job asks me for English, or even more than one more foreign language. For this reason, it's currently more important to learn languages currently.
Apart from this reason, studying languages allows you for to getting on to know many people, travelling and increasing your cultural knowledge.
I have a child. He is 4 years old. I'm taking him to English classes. Some people have said to me that it is very soon (very early/too soon) for him. I'm not don't agree with them. I think it is better for him and better for his future. He's a little child, but he's learning very quickly.Tomorrow it will be easier for him. I'm sure.
Well done, Sheila! An excellent piece of writing. Keep up the good work.
