I am judy Sgro and today I'm going to present

you my personal english project.

To start, I'm going to introduce my objectives.

The 1st 1 was a verbal expression.

I wanted to work on my accent and make correct

sentences without having to write them down before I talk

and I think to do that it's important to have

a good vocabulary.

So I wanted to learn some new words and expressions

expressions. I think learning learning english is very important to

open up to the world and discover some new culture

and creating links with other people.

But since I study science is that it's also important

to be included into the scientific community because a lot

of articles and the conferences are in english.

So now we are going to see the methods and

the resources that I use.

Uh to work on a vocabulary.

I worked on my listening comprehension and my region comprehension.

So to work on my listening comprehension, I used streaming

platform such as netflix and Disney plus.

Uh to start I watched movies and series, series with

english subtitles and then I stopped and I just watched

her without subtitles.

And then I listened to a podcast.

Uh since I really love this story, I listened to

um the history our by the BBC.

It's a 50 minutes but cast on the anecdote on

I need anecdotes uh historic and and then I obviously

used social media such as a youtube and instagram to

work on my regional comprehension.

Um I read some articles this semester we had to

work on the on the three men articles on pharmacology,

toxicology and cancer biology.

Um working on this article um Forces has to work

on other articles um to learn some new information etcetera

etcetera. So I think it's a good way to learn

some vocabulary and especially scientific folks everywhere.

And then I used the social networks also, um such

as facebook twitter and instagram and then to work on

my oral expression.

Um it was difficult at the beginning because I didn't

know how to work on this.

So I spoke, I spoke with valentine, which as the

same problem as me and we have decided to make

some little presentations.

So we did two presentation, One on the first one

was on friendship and the other one was on holidays.

I think it was a good exercise forest because it

allows us to a to correct each other.

And sometimes when we speak, we don't realize the mistakes

that we made and the other was able to tell

us. And uh and it was, it was really fun

too. So we had a good time.

And then uh I was searching for another way because

the presentation took a lot of time and I watched

a Youtube video where the boy wanted to learn a

new language and he explained that that record you recorded

itself For 13 minutes, 30 minutes every day to learn

how to speak.

So I thought it was a good idea and the

idea this twice a week during during 13 minutes and

then we are going to conclude and the first I

want to show you my assessment and my achievement.

So to evaluate myself um I didn't do anything special.

I just knew what was my level at the beginning

of the semester and now I'm now I'm feeling more

comfortable speaking english.

I think I improved my accent a little bit even

if it's neither a lot of work and I I

understand the movies and series without subtitles easily.

And now I I have the reflex to search a

new words that I didn't I didn't have other before

this work and things.

I realized that it was very easy to learn, english

by myself and that um that I already used english

every day.

I want to keep on working on speaking and and

learn vocabulary.

But I also think that during this experience I focused

too much on speaking and not enough on a on

my region expression.

So if I had to do this again, I would

like to to work more on on this.

So this is it.

Thank you for for listening to me.
