My Language Learning History

I’ve been studying English for twelve years. I learnt English in School when I was in 5ª série. Later, when I was in 8ª série I began to learn English in X School. I studied there for five years (Basic 1 to Intermediate). In 2002 I studied there to prepare to the P.E.T (Preliminary English Test) by University of Cambridge. In this test, I passed with 82%. My teacher was A. C.. He is from England.

In 2001 I began to teach English in “Escola NSA”, (name of the city) I’ve been working there for three years. My students are children (5 to 10 years old). It’s very good to teach English to children.

In 2002, I began my course of “Letras” in Faculdade X, (name of the city). The course wasn’t good. It was vary poorly. So, I trasfered to U.F.X in 2003. In U.F.X the course is Excellent. The techers are very friendly and help us all we need. In class, I can improve my English speaking, reading, writing and listening.

I love reading English books. All kind of books: comedy, horror, mistery and romantic. My favourite is “The diary of a young girl. AneFrank” I like listening music too. I have difficulties in listening but I try to practice more and more to be better.

When I finish my course in UFX I will do more two courses to University Of Cambridge (FCE and CAE). These certificates will be very important to my job.

My advice to students who want to learn English is: Practice Your English more you can and don’t worry in make mistakes. English is very easy.
