mmm.....I can say that blogging is not something new for me, I already have two more blogs... so write things in a webpage is something that I used to do it, but is the first time or is my first blog that I must write every sentences in another language, for me was difficult in the beginning, because I wasn't used to write so often in English, but with each blog has been getting easier, I know that make a lot of mistakes and I need to improve in grammar, listening and conversation (also my vocabulary)… to have a better fluidity, I never know when I going to be in some place that I really need to communicate with others, and the only way is to know English or another language (maybe in the future try to learn French again or try with other).
I believe that the advantages of blogging in English are:
1.- I was force to think and write in a different way that I use to, because the English grammar is different in some ways that Spanish grammar
2.- Also I was forced to write a minimum number of words, so I had to be very creative to full fit the assignment.
3.- How the topics are different each week, and not always I have a deep knowledge about the topics, I need to search information and be creative to explain the thought or my impression about the subject.
The disadvantages, I believe are these:
1.- I only have to write, I don’t do any listening or conversation, so something I find a new word but I don’t know how to say it.
2.- Even all speak Spanish, when people from another country came to our country is very difficult to established real communication with them, that I because we can’t speak well.
3.- In the other hand, to communicate with others is very important to understand the things that they are saying to us, but when we aren’t used to listen, that process became difficult or impossible.
For me was and is a very good experience, and I glad that we complement the blogs with the oral class, I believe that is the best way to learn others languages, not only English.
