My name is Juanjo. I'm from Spain, and even though my level of English is what we can call fluent, I'm still interested in improving. I'd like to contact to some native English speaker to help me in this task. In return, I'd be happy to help you with your Spanish.

You used some great vocabulary in your quest to sound 'native' and I'm sure I will eat more healthily from now on! Well done, Juanjo, and see you soon.

    Un nuevo año y nuevas aventuras

    El comienzo de otro año significa que es el momento de mirar adelante. ¿Qué nuevas cosas sucederán y cómo van a mejorar nuestras vidas?

    Para mí, el comienzo de un nuevo año es como comenzar con una pizarra limpia (un lienzo en blanco es màs común)¿Qué cosas puedo cambiar o hacer mejor? ¿Qué nuevas experiencias o aventuras me esperan?

    Sin embargo, lo que sucederá depende suceda dependerà  de mí. Siempre es más fácil para comenzar algo nuevo que continuar haciéndolo empezar algo de cero que continuar algo ya iniciado.

    La mayoría de las nuevas experiencias o aventuras ,solo suceden después de mucho pensamiento y planificación (despuès de darle muchas vueltas). Toma Requieren  mucha dedicación y trabajo para poder disfrutar de ellas.

    Aprender un nuevo idioma es un buen ejemplo de una de mis nuevas experiencias. Nunca tenía tuve la habilidad o interés para aprender otro idioma. Mientras yo estaba trabajando  en activo, no era necesarionecesitaba hablar otro idioma.

    Ahora que estoy jubilado y he descubierto el placer del aprendizaje de aprender español, he experimentado muchas nuevas experiencias y he conocido a mucha gente interesante.

    ¡Bienvenidos el año 2015 y muchas nuevas aventuras!

     

    Genial.

    Las palabras tachadas no estaban mal, simplemente suena màs natural as I.

    Mastering a language Is it possible to master a language without living abroad? My answer is NO, un!ess you have daily contact with your target language at work. Living abroad is absolutely no guarantee of success. You need to work hard on a daily basis wherever you are, but at least this way you could implement what you learn in real-life situations. Constant contact with native speakers gives you the push you need to progress, it's like being under some kind of voluntary and manageable stress that prompts actual learning. Language exchanges are great, but you have to find someone with the same interest in learning a language, and hopefully in teaching. An online teacher is something to take into account. There are some good ones in this site. You need some professional feedback to guarantee that you are doing well from time to time, but I think that a learning process should be sustainable. At this moment I feel as if all this effort is pointless. I would need some sort of encouragement, a reason why to keep on studying. I'd really appreciate any thoughts (and corrections , of course)

    When it's enough? When it comes to learn a language, your main goal is to be able to communicate basic and simple ideas. You know, the weather, something about your country, your family, directions...Then, your goals change and you think it's time to read a novel, a newspaper, maybe listening to the news on TV or even purchasing something on the internet in your target language. Once you achieve this, a question pops up: should I insist and persevere in this language or should I try a new one?. Since it is really difficult to master a foreign language, is it worth the hassle? I'd love to receive corrections and thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.

    Why am I here? When I first heard of this place, I quickly became aware that it could be a great opportunity to contact to people like me, with the same passion on learning languages. Why don't give it a shot?.Nothing to loose. Since I am a teacher (not a language teacher), I perfectly understand the difficulties people go through in a learning process, so I think I can be helpful too. I am also planning to start from scratch with a new language in the future (maybe French), but first I' like to focus in finishing my formation in English, though it's never enough.
