Por: Nubia Méndez M. (English teacher)
Most of Colombian people think English is a very difficult language to learn, but as an English teacher I think it is not true. I think that the most difficult thing for Spanish speakers is to understand that in English we write in one way and pronounce in another way. But if we are really interested to learn something we have the 50% gained and the other 50% is easy to get.
So I invite and encourage the students and all the members of the Prospero Pinzon School and from other institutions to take the risk of learning foreign languages, not only English, may be French, German, Italian, or the language you prefer. Because when you speak another language your world becomes bigger and you understand that the world is not only Colombia and you can go to other countries and know about other cultures.
We need to be optimistic and to see beyond the circumstances and to make our best for making our dreams become real. With this section in our newspaper we pretend give you the opportunity to read and practice your knowledge about English. We expect you enjoy this activities.
