- His name is Lionel, but you can call him, Messi! It's almost impossible to never have heard of him.
He's a soccer player, he was born in Argentina, but he didn't play soccer there, do you know why? Because they said he was short.
Yes, he is short, but it doesn't mean anything, and today all the world saw what he did. What a match!
Two goals against Chelsea, and Barcelona is coming again.
For sure he belongs in the soccer hall of fame. In my opinion he is between betters. In July the world cup will happen in Russia, if he stays like this, the Argentina will be favorite.
Wow, great job! I corrected what I could, but there were a couple of sentences I had difficulty translating. Maybe somebody else can offer more help.

I love to watch these kind of videos because make me feel happy in sad moments. I think that Berto is able to make jokes about everything because he is a tolerant person. He works with Buenafuente, who is the presenter of the program Late Motive. Inside this program, there is the section of Berto's work* “El consultorio de Berto”. In this section the people who watch the program can send messages by e-mail or audio via whatapp asking about the different aspects of their life.
If the
text or audio is funny, Berto will answer with a tactless joke. At the beginning of this project, Berto listened to all the audio clips in his home and hand selected the funniest, but now he is lazy about this work and makes it up* during the program. I think that he does that because he is working on different projects, and to be more productive he needs to spend his time on other things. I think that right now he is in the higher point of his carrier and also that this section makes him more popular.Maybe he noticed that,
because he started to dress more elegantly than in the beginning of his career when he started with the “Consultorio de Berto”.I admire his work because I wouldn't be able to talk and make jokes for 17 minutes without being clumsy the entire time.
You are doing a fantastic job, keep it up! I made corrections based upon what sounds good to me as a native english speaker!
You'll notice that i made some corrections that have * next to them. This is because it's best interpretation of what was said and I could be wrong.

It was the book by Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running.I like to run. Running for me is like a meditation. During the run I usually think about current affairs, plans for the future, work, and my personal life. That's why I like running books. I have read a few books on this topic. I especially love when people tell personal stories. How and why they began to run, and what running has given them. It is very interesting for me to read about the experience of participation in different marathons.With the work of Haruki Murakami, I am familiar with the school. I like this writer. I was surprised when I saw in the list of his works a book about running, and after reading it I was pleasantly surprised.In this book, he partially described his biography, his running experience and the thoughts that came to his mind while running. It turned out, Murakami was not just running for himself, he also participated in a marathon. Moreover, he participated in a triathlon.
Great work! The corrections I made here are based on the way I speak and write as a native English speaker. i am so impressed by your skills!

Certifications prove that I am a professional. Sometimes it's just way to show that I am qualified, even if it's not useful. The one I am going to study is like that. But there are no other ways to prove I am into this work, unless I do this unrelated thing first.
Great job! Good luck with the certification!

For me, it was an amazing moment of my life where I spent a lot of time playing with my classmates and learning from my teachers. The school was near my house. It took me about ten minutes to get to school. My best friend was Beatriz. She was kind, charming and sometimes a little stubborn. She was good at Maths and I was good at Biology. On the other hand, I remember that my favourite teacher was Mary. She taught me Biology. It was my favourite subject. The facilities were old but cozy and the playground was enormous. The school didn't have a library. The books were in each class. There wasn´t a gym. We did exercise on the playground and if the weather was rainy we stayed in class studying other subjects. Finally, I have to say that I'm going to get in touch with some classmates through social networks because we are working in different cities.
Fabulous job!

Quiero hacer muchos amigos, pero estoy nervioso. Quizás ellos no me quieren o quizás mi español no sea suficiente para hablar con ellos. Cómo puedo superar mi miedo a hablarle a la gente?March 12, 201820
EMBARRASSING TRIP
This happened when I was on my honeymoon when I went to Rome. It was August and the day was very hot. My husband and I wanted to visit The Vatican, so we paid for a tour in a group with a tour guide.
At first, all was fine, the monuments were amazing and our partners were nice, but suddenly we were listening to the tour guide and the police approached us and arrested my husband. I didn´t know what was happening! The tour guide talked to the police and helped us. There was a rude sentence on my husband´s T-shirt. He turned his T-shirt inside out to hide the words. In this way the problem was resolved.
Five minutes later, an elderly woman asked my husband, what was written on your T-shirt?. I stared at my husband and the tour guide and we didn´t know what to say. We were quite nervous and embarrassed and our faces were redish.
My husband never had been arrested and the tour was a disaster at first.
It was an exciting trip and after all that had happened, we believe that Rome is the most wonderful city we have ever seen.Great job, your English is fantastic! That is a great story, too. I would have been super freaked out!
