    1. I also think you improved your level of English Jhon :) and I agree with you when you say that you didn't take your learning process properly :( but I am sure that if you take your English learning process more seriuosly, you will get a very good level of English very soon specially if you plan to look for a scholarship abroad ;)
      Regarding your project participation, I think that at least now you realized about the importance of preparing better any presentation, specially when the topic is so technical.

      Good luck in your professional and personal life :) (I'll miss you)

  33. Hi, I'm Sebastian Camilo Lopez Sanchez

    My First Score

    My score in listening i remember that was B1
    My score in reading i remember that was 45%
    My score in grammar i remember that was A2

    My Second Score

    My score in listening was B2
    My score in reading was 80%
    My score in grammar was B2

    Questions:

    - Have you advanced in your English language learning?

    When i saw the results of the diagnotisco tests i saw that the margin of error had been lower than when i for first time.

    So taking this, adding that i now can interact more with the people that at the beginning, i Sebastian Lopez i have improved a lot.


    - How do you feel now? Do you think you achieved the objectives you had with this course?

    To what i have advanced in this course my goals fell short; i went further than i had expected.

    Because when we started did not understand anything that the my teacher spoke, my ear was not adapted to listen to the English followed; In the half of the course already understood the half what my teacher said for me and my companions; And beginning november i understood most of what my teacher Deisa said in the class. Also i look for the way to put prefixes and suffixes to the words to improve my vocabulary and my vocabulary in English is also bigger.


    - Were your expectations satisfied?

    I believe that the course met my expectations and more, although it was around 4 months i learned more than i had proposed for a short period; Where it is difficult find whith who practice the language, if i speaking english with who to practice the English language I would have proposed the expectations to which i have arrived at the end of the course.

    - Do you deserve to pass this level? yes/no why?

    Yes, offcorse

    The course i did, was a course in which my teacher Deisa taught me and told me that English is not translate; English is to produce, think in English and not translate; Since i started to do it, my English began to improve and when i think in English to communicate, my mind asks me to look for more vocabulary to form sentences, i am like a child learning to speak, i think in English and i wonder, How do you say that? What is that? i ask myself questions of that type to produce English and express myself.

    I also learned that speaking is not only verbally, it is also bodily; If my teacher Deisa was not so expressive i would not have understood very well what she wanted to say in classes, so now when i speak i try to express myself with the body too.

    Then my teacher Deisa gave me basis, fundaments and gave me a way to expand my English; Now everything depends of me, which is to improve my vocalization, my vocabulary and practice a lot; My teacher Deisa already did what I had to do, now I must put it into practice for my life and my professional future.

    Teacher, you are the best!!!
