Culture shock
My experience “culture
Shock” in Arkansas one of them is the language in the two areas, listening and
speaking English language. Sometime
when I go to the supermarket or mall to bay something, I have to repeat each
word several time, because somebody don’t understand it, and also, when I don’t
understand about, what someone is talking about , I have to tell them “could
you please, speak slowly?”. Something I’m confused about what they tell me, but
I express with some gestures. One of the solutions to improve my listening and
speaking, is to listen in any time, watch TV News, listen to stories and listen
to music and sing a song.
The other one is the
weather and all of the clothes that I have to wear, it so horrible, in the
morning I really feel bad, it too cool. I hope that the rest of the training, I
would be adapted to the weather.
Hi, Sara!
ReplyDeleteYou are right! The best way to improve your listening and speaking skills is by practicing. I think it is a great idea to watch TV in English, and if possible, put captions in ENGLISH at least at the beginning of your training. If you want, I can show you some ways to practice those skills in the computer lab.
I am sorry you are having a difficult time expressing yourself and also with the weather. I hope things get better. If there is anything I can do to help you adapt, just let me know.
Thanks for sharing.
