Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my English How much did you improve your English?
My level before: At ease in most situations My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
I had a previous experience in Australia, where I had learned most of my English. At the beginning I had some problems with american pronunciation, but after a while things come easily. Talking with my flatmates, watching tv, listening my professors... it's an infallible method. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
