Studying Methods

Today I want to write a bit about my studying methods.

I started to learn German five months ago, and I have also studied some French and Swedish. Nowadays my German is at a B1 level, I feel very satisfied with that, but I think it could be much better - people tell me that if I studied only one language it would be, I would make it better but I don't really think so.

Why not?

I think that the main problem with my learning was not the time that each language requested required, nor the hardness difficulty, not even the infamous "You will confuse them and mix them", which I don't think I have done nothing wrong at all. (not exactly sure what you're trying to say - I'm assuming you mean that you haven't confused and mixed them?)

The main problem was how I approached my learning study. At first I just tried to receive absorb any possible information I could:, whatsoever that I found stories, tales, news, apps, dictionaries... and I think that's actually what we should do - but we should do it with an order structure, and I lacked of that structure.

After a couple of months of just reading and reading (do you mean reading and writing?), I started to read only one thing by per day and to write new words and expressions on my blackboard. Then I looked up for what they meant, but I don't didn't write it down - I tried to look at the blackboard and remember each word's meaning, if I don't couldn't I would search look them up again.

I know that there are a lot of different methods and tips, but I like to keep it simple. This has really proven to be helpful for me, as in the last month I've noticed a huge progress - bigger than I've noticed before over a comparable period., comparing times.

So, that's what I wanted to write about today, what are your main learning study methods?

Very interestig and well written - you don't need to use nearly so many commas though.

Huge gig

In June my daughter, María, went to a gig. It took place in Atco de Madrid's stadium. It was playing The One Dirección, a famous group of teenagers, were playing. There was a guitarist player, a violinist player, a drumer player and of course a singer. It's incredible but my daughter had to buy the ticket one year earlier. The price was too much expensive*, I think, about €100. She bought her ticket in El Corte Inglés. My daughter enjoyed very much the experience very much and she told me that she would like to go the next time they come. The permormances played were wonderful and they got nice critics good reviews in all the media.

* You cannot say "too much" before an adjective. You can say "it cost too much" or "it was too expensive". But in this case it's probably better to say "very expensive" because she bought the ticket - "too much" implies that it was so expensive that she did not buy it.

Today I saw a beautiful movie whose name is the named/called/titled The Fault In Our Stars. I think this movie is very romantic and funny even when happens sad things happen to them because the such as cancer. Love always keeps a smile on their faces. I thought this movie would maybe would be boring but it wasn't, not at all.

What are you doing now?

I´m sitting in front of my/the/a computer, writting some letters.
But in 30 mins I will go to the tavern with my friend to see the athletic football/soccer*.

* Use 'football' for UK and 'soccer' for USA.

Shrimp for lunch

On Saturdays I'll I prefer to eat something differrent. For example, last weekend I ate a Honduran-style food. Today I'm going to eat shrimps with my girlfriend. She has very much a lot of homework. I believe that she needs to do somewhat something different for that has less stress. I hope that the lunch can will help you her.
About me? Well, I have homework too, and I need to practice English, I'm really excited with about the practice.
