My goal for today My goal for today is read at least two hours of Harry Potter's new book, but I only achieved one hour. I am studying English, I guess I am in Upper Intermediate level, so I grapple with the issue of the new words, so then I always have to search these new words in a dictionary and this process make reading exhausting. If I read in Portuguese, I reckon I would really achieve my goal, but my goal is becoming a good reader in English and I know it's a long shot, but I have to start putting it in practise every day. Today I am feeling comfortable to read in English even with a dictionary to help me. I used to read books in English but not in real English. They were in a easy English for students, for example I read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and some day ago I watched the film and I realised that there were a lot of details that I didn't catch in the easy version book. I am doing that to improve my skills in English. If you want to speak and write better, reading is the right way to achieve success.

My goal for today

My goal for today is was (you use the past further on in the sentence so you need to use the past tense here)  to read at least two hours of the new Harry Potter book, but I only achieved one hour. I am studying English and I guess my level is upper intermediate. I grapple with the issue of the new words and find I always have to search these new words in a dictionary and this process makes reading exhausting. (try to avoid very long sentences.)


If I read in Portuguese I reckon I would really achieve my goal, but my goal is becoming to become a good reader in English and I know it's a long shot but I have to start putting it into practise every day.


Today I am feeling comfortable to reading in English even especially having with a dictionary to help me. I used to read books in English but not in real English. They were in an easy English for students, for example, I read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and some a few days ago I watched the film and I realised that there were a lot of details that were not in the easy version book.


I am doing that this to improve my skills in English. If you want to speak and write better, reading is the right way to achieve success.

My goal for today is to read at least two hours of the new Harry Potter's new book, but I only achieved one hour. I am (currently) studying English. I guess I am in my level is Upper Intermediate level, so I grapple with the issue of the learning new words, so then and I always have to search these new words in a dictionary and this process make reading exhausting.

If I read in Portuguese, I reckon I would really achieve my goal, but my goal is becoming to become a good reader in English. and I know it's a long shot, but I have to start putting it into practise every day.

Today I am feeling feel comfortable to reading in English even with a dictionary to help me. I used to read books in English but not in real English. They were in a easy English for students, for example I read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and some days ago later I watched the film and I realised that there were a lot of details that I didn't catch was not in the easy version book.

I am doing that this to improve my skills in English. If you I want to speak and write better, (I believe) reading is the right way to achieve success.
