Hi everyone! Hi, my name is Gabriel, but almost no one calls me that way. You can call me Gabo, it's simpler. I'm from Mexico City. I acquired my english skills by reading a lot of articles and tutorials on the internet. Actually I didn't had any formal training since high school. I can understand almost everything I read in english but I still have some issues trying to understand any casual conversation, specially when they are speaking very fast. Ironically, even when I read a lot, I'm still having some problems to make sure anything I'm writing makes sense. Recently, I've been few times in the United States. No for so long, just a little tourism trip. It turns out that sometimes I felt a little unconfident talking to anyone, I struggled a little bit at the beginning but then I felt pretty confortable. Lots of nice people. One of my plans for this year is to give a talk or conference in plain english to a native speakers audience. It will be hard but I'm sure if a practice good enough I can do it. Talking to large audiences it's not a problem at all... well... I think so. So, if anyone wants to practice their spanish, I'll very glad to help, no matter where you are. :) Thanks for reading.
