In Academic writing and Public Speaking, I have come to learn the importance of expressing yourself in the best/right way depending on the situation which is something I never really thought about as before this class I believed my English was just fine but I was wrong, this semester I truly believe I stregnthed my english as I learned tons of new words and improved my grammar, but I still have a lot to learn beffore I can consider myself to have a great knowladge on formal speaking and writing so I will do my best to keep on practicing an learning.

Useful Video 

Why this video could be useful for young people? 

At the beginning of this course I was on the belief that there was nothing more to improve in my English skills since I’ve been studying English since I was 4 years old and thought it was just fine, but soon I saw how mistaken I was, there is always room to improve and I truly believe every day you can improve even if it is just a little, I'm a person that learns from its mistakes, and thats what this course has given to me, the opportunity to make mistakes and learn from them, i’ve learned that I need to pay more attention into my grammar and organize my ideas a little bit better to not just make a good essay, but to make a great one, Also while doing this blog i’ve found that my interest in writing keeps growing every day.

 I still have a lot to improve especially in writing skills but with continuous practice, I will get to the level I want/need, and who knows maybe by the end of this semester I will embrace writing as a hobby.

/February the 3rd 1999, a little brown baby is born (AKA me) in the beautiful city of Mexico and nothing was the same ever again. My name is Luis Gerardo Sánchez Mustafá and I would like To welcome you to my blog where I will upload essays and videos of my experience of Public Speaking and Academic writing.

I would describe my life as good and complete, I had a great childhood, despite my parent's divorce and some health issues, but my mom always was my main support and she has always been there for me so I'm very grateful for that.

I'm 19 years old and currently majoring in marketing and communication at Tecnologico de Monterrey, my hobbies are listening to music, traveling and watching movies.
