Wow ¡qué buen nivel! Un par de errores solamente, uno de concordancia de género "Esta frase ha sido debatida", "Las phabletas se introdujeron" y "alguien parece estúpido sosteniendo un ladrillo en la oreja." Sólo son pequeños errores que todos cometemos, ¡sigue escribiendo así de bien!
0 votedDecember 14, 20131Hola Marta, te contesto en español en caso de que no me puedas entender al 100% (lo cual no es ningún problema ya que estamos aquí para aprender). Te comento, llevo toda mi vida aprendiendo inglés y no ha sido hasta estos últimos dos años cuando realmente he notado un cambio notable en mi nivel. Actualmente estudio lo que antes se conocía como Filología Inglesa en la universidad y considero que tengo un buen nivel. Pero no lo he conseguido exclusivamente en la carrera y con clases presenciales sino que lo he ido adquiriendo a base de ver todo absolutamente todo en inglés (series, películas, cualquier canal de la televisión que se pueda poner en inglés etc) y esto es algo que al principio cuesta mucho, sobre todo si te quieres enterar de la película, pero al mismo tiempo haces que tu cerebro se esfuerce por entender y así poco a poco adquieres nuevas capacidades. Leer libros en inglés, hablar (ya sea chateando, por skype o lo que sea) en inglés, viajar siempre que puedas, escuchar música en inglés ¡e incluso pensar en inglés si puedes! Una vez tengas este chip verás como tu nivel va en ascenso continuamente ¡y a un nivel tremendo! Buena suerte y a por todas.

It will be great because while you gain experience I will improve my speaking skills! My skype is canario_vsk. Thank you Savvy!
0 votedDecember 9, 20130- What are the most difficult aspects you find when learning English?
Hi everyone!
My name is Ari and I'm currently working on my final dissertation. I'll focus it on the main difficulties we find when we are learning English and how to overcome them. So I'm very interested on what are the main features that you find particularly hard and what are the main mistakes you keep committing when you are writing or speaking. I'm refering to the grammar, listening comprehension, orally speaking, reading... any area! So please write from your own experience what you think and if you want to, you can write what are the easiest points that you've gone throuhg learning English. Thank you!
AriDecember 9, 201311 As Marta said, check another books and resources because that kind of books sometimes are not that helpful and they could be even confusing for foreigners.
Let's begin with (Tú vs usted). As she said ('Tú eres') it is used in every single spanish speaking country. (Usted) it is used to show respect or admiration for someone who, in most cases, is older than you. For instance if you visit your girlfriend's father or grandfather for the first time you will refer to him using (usted) but if you meet her brother probably you'll use (Tú).
And then (Vosotros vs Ustedes). ('Vosotros') is mainly used only in certain regions of Spain such as Madrid. But what you have to take into account is that anyone will understand you perfectly whether you say ('vosotros') or ('Ustedes') because both mean exactly the same, the only difference is that ('Ustedes') shows respect as ('Usted') but what we are are trying to say is that in many countries from South America or even in Canary Islands (where I am from) we use (ustedes in the place of vosotros) and it has almost lost it respect connotation because we use it all the time. If I were you I would always use ('Ustedes') because everyone will understand you anyway.
