My experience learning English at the university has been good, especially because at the beginning of the classes I have to speak in a language completely different from my own, and that, although a little frustrating at first, has helped me to naturalize English in my daily life. As for the face-to-face and Zoom classes, I must say that I prefer the first modality, rather than the second, because I can actually see the faces and expressions of my classmates, which makes me feel more confident than just seeing a black screen. And that in a way, also affects the way I express part of my life in blogs, seeing my classmates and teacher every week, gives me much more motivation to write blogs, although they can be tedious, I like them.
Outside of class, I use English to talk to myself in the shower, to talk to my friends or to help some lost foreigner who doesn't know Spanish very well, which happens to me very often since I am not originally from Santiago and I always have to take buses to Viña del Mar or Valparaíso, and many times at the terminal station there is more than one lost foreigner looking for guidance, and for some reason they look for me. Most of the time I can help them, but there are times that due to grammatical issues I find it hard to understand them and answer their questions correctly, in that sense I would like to improve my grammar, and learn more in theory, since most of my English I have learned through netflix or youtube.
