Narrativa coletada por Liliane Sade

I started learning English Language at school, it was a particular school, so the English's level was very good.

  I always loved this language and I improved my learning with lyrics of songs that I translated because  I am curious and I wanted know what the lyrics means. Now to do this is easier because there is the internet, where the translations are ready, but I prefer sometimes translate by myself because I improve my vocabulary and my knowledge.

  I never made a English course so when I started at UFSJ I thought the English Language was more difficult than this. Of course I improved a lot my English knowledge and I'm sure I will go away of university without a fluently English. I know that is impossible, so I want go to a country of English Language to learn much more than I learnt here.

Some years later I decided to return to Cultura Inglesa. At that time I was an adolescent full of energy and self-confidence. There was nothing of that  “caipira em Nova York” anymore. I was different, taller, more beautiful (I used to think I was beautiful at that time). I started studying with people from my age and I liked the teacher a lot. In fact I fell in love with her. I was the best student. Besides, everything I learnt alone in my house made sense for me and I learnt the language very fast. Before finishing the first book I received an European in my house and I spoke fluent English with him.

    I concluded all levels of English and I took and passed in all Cambridge Exams: PET, FCE, CAE and CPE. I have the best memories of my teachers and I still remember many of the lessons I was taught.

    In brief my learning process was extremely profitable and not even for a second disturbing. I may shoulder the responsibility of  my success as a speaker of English as a second language on my teachers, the way they delivered the lessons and of course on my dedication and interest.
