I am a Spanish teacher. I learned English in a traditional academy, but I never was not enough to encourage speaking to others and understand what people say. Likewise, I tried to play many video games in English, but it was anyway really difficult for me. Some years later I was in a relationship with a girl who is my wife right now forced to me practice more English, for my good of course, and she said I have to improve my English skills in order to get a job as Spanish teacher because it was really good paid. I tried to listen more music, watching movies and listening people speaking, talking to myself, etc. This motivation made me to send my CV to that company and I got the job after a long test. My first was a mess haha but with more practice I got how to teach better my mother language, I was a big challenge for me.
