PIEDAD BALLESTEROS


Hello,

 

First of all, I would like to introduce myself, my name is Piedad and I was a student at the Language School here in Talavera de la Reina. Recently, I have learned that this Language School is celebrating its 25 anniversary. Therefore, I decided to write a few words and share my experience there when I was doing my English studies.

 

To start with, I began my studies there at intermediate level all the way up to advanced one. In total, I spent four years there, and throughout those years my English level improved a lot. Several things made my English studies and that improvement possible:

 

Firstly, I have to say that having the Language School located here in Talavera de la Reina is a great opportunity for people who live in this town and from other villages close to it, to be able to do their language studies without moving to other places such as Toledo, Ciudad Real like it used to be. Apart from that, while I was studying at the Language School, they added more school timetables, making them more flexible and suitable for students in order to attend classes. For example, when I started there were no classes in the mornings for advanced students, but they were added over the time and I had the chance to be able to choose it.

 

Secondly, I am grateful to my teachers. I had three; and I could connect really well with two of them, Elena and Enrique, because you could tell that they liked their profession and cared about their students always motivating and encouraging us and trying to help students improve their English and be able to pass the exams. I will always be thankful to you both for that. Also, I am really glad for having had such good classmates. They were really hard-working people, and some of them had a high English level, so they were a role model for me in order to make my English pronunciation and intonation better. Thank you all for being such great people.

 

However, there are some things that I still miss a lot. For example, when I started there used to be English speaking classes in the afternoon once a week for students to be able to practice their speaking skills a bit more, which I think it is very important, because a language is basically oral communication, and also it is the skill that students usually practice the least. Apart from that, I would also like these exams at the Language School to have the same value internationally as other exams such as the First Certificate and so on. I hope it will be the case in the future.

 

Finally, I would like to finish giving a piece of advice as a former student, and it is that studying a foreign Language takes a long time, is a never-ending process, so it’s up to everyone of us to set the pace for that process depending on our status, needs and so on. But one cannot expect to be able to pass exams just taking two classes a week and doing some homework that the teachers set. Instead, one has to put a lot of hours into it and make the most of the resources that the Language School offers for students such as the library and other things.

 

I want to end saying

 

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE 25 ANNIVERSARY OF THE LANGUAGE SCHOOL IN TALAVERA DE LA REINA.
