Hello,

Thank you for the welcome. I think a good method to improve a language is watching TV and seeing fillms.

Nice to meet you Cristina,

I´m from Mexico, we share the language "Spanish",and the english too.

Hi! Elba,

I agree with you, we usually have the same problems.In my opinion pronunciation is the most difficult skill for Spanish native speakers.
