At the beginning it was difficult. My communication skills were very poor. But I was in a foreign country, so I needed to improve my English fast. Living on campus was a good opportunity to improve my English with other students. It was easier to me to speak with other Erasmus students in English than with local students. In one month, my communications skills improved so much.

There´s quite a lot of slang, which I got the chance to learn because I used to live with local students. At the beginning it was a bit hard to understand every single word cause they speak really fast.
The language spoken by teachers at University was standard so this obviously made understanding a lot easier.

Personal comments
Although my level of English was meant to be good enough, I did encounter some communication problems, mainly because of the Northern Irish accent. However, I got used to it in a couple of months and realise how important spending some time in another country was to improve the level of your second language.

I choose UK because I think is more important learn English than other laguages.
At the beginning was difficult my communication, but now is easier.
At the university I have done some oral presentation, test, essays, so this can let me improve my English.
