Hello, my name is Tanera. I'm 22 years old. I fell in love with Spanish when I started taking it in high school and I majored in it as well in college. I also studied abroad in Spain for 4 months. Learning Spanish gave me a passion for learning about the world around me-other languages and cultures. So after graduating college, I took the opportunity to become an English teacher in South Korea. Hola, me llamo Tanera. Tengo 22 años. Me enamoré del español cuando comencé a estudiarlo en la escuela secundaria y también recibí mi licenciatura en español. También estudié en España durante 4 meses. Aprender español me dio una pasión por aprender sobre el mundo que me rodea, otros idiomas y culturas. Así que después de graduarme de la universidad, aproveché la oportunidad para convertirme en profesor de inglés en Corea del Sur. Sin embargo, desde que me gradué de la universidad, no he practicado la lengua nunca mas y por más mis habilidades de hablar en español han bajado.

    It's been a very long time!

    I haven't logged on here at italki.com to practice English for a very long time! So, here I am. This time, I'm trying to master the way we all learn languages, because the biggest problem that I see everyone faces is "thinking in the language you're learning" which is hard, I'd admit. Some linguistics say that the best way to learn how to think in a different language is to start thinking about short phrases and in your free time making a story in your head (go to the Supermarket etc.) because in that way you prepare yourself for any situation.... but we translate automatically in our head, so! I think that the efficient and proper way to learn how to think in a language is simply to practice it, speaking with other people And MAKING MISTAKES guys. Yes. Because I know what it means to feel stuck in a level and not be able to reach the next step. That happens when we don't want to make any mistakes, we think we must be perfect! but it's normal! We are all learning a new language a new way of speaking , thinking, facing situations, differences in pronunciation. That's all. Hope that I did not too many mistakes! See you soon and thanks in advance for the correction

    My first writing essay

    Hi, I'm Felipe from Chile and I'm very excited to learn English right now. I hope somebody could help by giving me feedback about my writing essay as I will do for other learners with the intention to improve their Spanish skills.
    ---
    It's said that when someone is sick, a cup of hot water with honey will sooth all the bad symptoms, but what does honey really do for your body? I read an article about a list of all of the advantages of honey and why it is important to dilute it with water to get most out of its benefits.

    Honey's medical reputation stems from its antibacterial feature. Even though it's common to find bacteria in sweet environments, honey's properties prevent this proliferation because of its scant amount of water and oxygen. Besides this, honey also has some acids that prevent the growth of some bacteria. When honey is mixed with water it allows some bacteria to flourish, but here is the main and most important fact: it only allows the growth of bacteria that are helpful for the human body while killing off dangerous strains. This is why honey has been used as an antiseptic too.

    In studies around the world, honey has turned out to be a great medical aid alternative for superficial wounds due to its antibacterial function that prevents infections. Moreover, it can help with many internal problems too. Due to its powerful antibacterial properties, it not only soothes the pain but can also kill the bacteria that caused that pain.

    Finally, is relevant to mention that not all kinds of honey have the same effect as others, it may vary depending on the source of the nectar. But, it sounds  impossible to control all the bees in order to know where the nectar comes from. That is why honey has to be controlled thoroughly and regularly.

    ****Your English is really good!!

    myself -please correct me.

    I want to tell you about myself ..when I was young I lived with my family. We were not rich but we loved and cared fir each other. Every time my father went to the farm, I went with him and sometimes we caught fish. we had a lot of cows.Everyday I had to take them to the big field .One time I hit them because they didn't walk, just stopped and stood and it made me angry. I hit them many times and I saw a mark on their back. After that I felt so sad. I cried a lot, wondering why I hit them. I felt pity after I hit them. This was my crime against animals. After I took them to stables, I came back to the swimming pool. It's not exactly a swimming pool but it looks like it because there is a natural pool in the field. I'm a good swimmer because I practice by myself and can sometimes catch fish ..In those times I was very happy. many times when I thought about that part of my life I felt really happy. My house was located outside the city. we didn't have electricity to use, we just had lamps but I liked it a lot. when the storm came again my house was almost destroyed by it. we ran away from our house to my sister's house, which was stronger than my house. I felt a lot of joy in my young life.........this is all for my teacher ..sorry for my late homework forgive me please..


    ***Some parts I didn't completely understand exactly what you meant, but I did my best. Great job!
