Personal comments
I am much more comfortable than I was before when it deals with speaking english now. I think what made the difference was the fact that I really wanted to communicate and exchange ideas with all the people around me with whom I had to work in every courses. I made the choice of studying abroad since I wanted to discover a new culture through people, countryside and the education system but I also knew from the beginning that I was there to improve my english everyday.
