The most difficult thing about practicing my English

Hi guys!

I want to share with all of you the most difficult thing about practicing English…… maybe this could sounds weird, but for me talking on the phone is very difficult and I really have a hard time trying to understand what the person is telling me, so the person has to repeat, at list <em>least</em> twice, all <em>of </em>the sentence<em>/the whole sentence</em>, so I can get the main idea….. I don't know if this happen<em>s</em> to everybody who's is learning another language, or if this only happen<em>s</em> to me!!! I feel so afraid about talking on the phone in English… have <em>has</em> this ever happen<em>ed</em> to any of you?

**Hi! First of all, I just wanted to tell you that I thought this entry was written pretty well. Anyways, to answer your question- trying to understand a foreign language as it is being spoken is pretty hard. However, the more you listen to it and expose yourself to it, the easier understanding it gets! I am a native English speaker who is currently learning Spanish at school, and my teacher speaks Spanish everyday (obviously not at the speed it is typically spoken amongst native speakers), and I have grown accustomed to hearing it so I barely have to put effort into trying to understand it.

Nice to meet you!

Hi everybody! I studied <em>E</em>nglish ten years ago, but I <em>usually</em><em> (no importa, pero recomiendo que Ud. ponga la palabra aquí.)</em> don't usually use it in my <em>at</em> work<em>,</em> and my level is very poor at this moments <em>the moment</em>. I'm looking for new jobs and everybody asks <em>o is asking</em> for <em>someone who speaks at a</em> high level of <em>E</em>nglish so.. I need help to practice <em>o </em><em>in practicing</em> some writing and speaking. I speak <em>S</em>panish and <em>C</em>atalan (native)!

Very good!c: Ud. puede enviarme un mensaje si tiene algunas preguntas.

DREAMS

Having the force <em>ability(?)</em> to still thinking about your dreams is kind of challenging<em>;</em> I don't know if studyin<em>g</em> medicine and working at the same time is pos<em>s</em>ible, but I guess I'm trying because you only have one chance to make it happen.

My dream is that <em>I will </em>someday to be <em>become</em> a surgeon and work in <em>the </em>Johns Hopkins ho<em>s</em>pital or in a laboratory discovering drugs to cure d<em>i</em>seases and help people around the world<em>. M</em>y life as I'm living it now sucks, but I we <em>(?)</em> have to be strong <em>(</em><em>se </em><em>necesita una conjunción aquí)</em> there is no another way.

Very good! Si Ud. tiene algunas pregunatas, puede enviarme un mensaje. c:
