How my English is going so far I started learning English from scratch in 2014 when I was in the USA. I was an exchange student and I spent a year learning English. After this period, I was able to engage in conversations and understand a variety of topics, but my English was far from being perfect, especially regarding pronunciation and writing. Naturally, I had to return home (Brazil), and I became afraid of losing all the progress I had made as in the Brazilian countryside (where I live), there are virtually no English speakers to talk to. As a result, I've spent the past three years learning English passively, that is, watching lots of movies and TV shows, mainly comedies, and reading stuff on the Internet. I think I've improved my English a lot in terms of vocabulary and listening skills, but I haven't written nor spoken anything in English other than translating some scientific abstracts. I'm not prone to studying grammar or improving my English in a systematic way; that's why I'm writing this text to see how well I can construct sentences by using the words I know. As for grammar, I learned the basics during my time in the USA, but now, I try to pick it up by reading and observing the patterns. I've recently graduated from college, and I'm not sure what English level I am at. Please, let me know what I should improve upon based on the above. Thanks!

To be honest you write better English than some people that live here in America ;)

Well, you write just like a native speaker to me. This is not a joke, right?
