A letter

Well, I arrived here in June 27, since this time I have met with a lot of people, which I have never seen before, people of many parts of the word, also I have studied hardly every day. In the last session I took three different classes: reading & writing, listening & speaking and structure, all was interesting for me and I could improve my English; for example, by the time I learned something new in grammar class I had used it to write my essays, also I had practiced it in speaking. Everything was good for me here but I was a little worried because while I was studying here, in b2b (the company where I work) was a few problems.

Now, I think that I have to disconnect a little of my job and only concentrate in my studies and take advantages of it. Moreover I am not only learning English, also I am learning about me, for instance how I handled the stress. Now my schedule is different than last session, I finish my regular classes earliest, on the other hand, I sign up for more optional classes, I has been attend classes everyday in average for 6 hours, and then I have to do my homework.

I sense that the time here is very short to improve very well my English, it have passed 2 months since I arrived here, I will leave in October, by the time I leave Tuscaloosa, I will have been here for 4 months, but I will haven’t completed ELI high level, for this reason I will continued studying English when I return, I might enroll me in conversational course, I hope by the end of this year I will be speaking English more fluently.

The Best Experiences In USA

Since I arrived here to Tuscaloosa, I have have good experiences, because every thing here have been new for me. I Have living here for one month and a few days, but the experience has been more big than the short time in this city. The first good experience has been the language contact, because I had studied a little of English in my country, but i didn't have real contact with language. Moreover here when i have to use the English for quotidian things , is so good. Other experiences are the relationship with new people from other countries, also from my proper country. For me is amazing know people from other countries like Korean, Japan, Saud Arabia, Taiwan because using the English i can communicate with person so different than me with other culture and so different language, other toughs,this experience has been special. Also with Chilean boys with my same language, was good experience know them because my mother is from Chile and was interesting met people of the same country from my mother's born and change with them different knowledge they are very enjoy and friendly people. With the teachers and Administration ELI people I could know about American culture they are very loyal and they have interested to help us to improve the English skills.






There are two specific experiences that I can said were the best, first a friends give me a surprise a cake and a card with a beautiful messages for my birthday and didn't expect it for this reason was very exciting for me. And the second the trip to Panama City Beach was wonderful the beaches are beautiful and i can feeling very peaceful in this place was a gift of my God.

My entrepreneurial idea

Maybe, a entrepreneurial idea it is not necessary an idea of something totally new, but could be the new strategic or implementation form of your business product that could be give you productivity. For example in my country there are a lot of strategics that are from other countries but not necessary are the most favorable in my country. Moreover in my business area also there a critical stage in the cycle of software develop it is: Software requirements, actually the companies which develop software spend a lot of money because the requirements there aren't satisfactoriness i can see this. For this reason my entrepreneurial idea is work offer outsourcing in different companies in my country researching the different kind of type of requirements, the service will be make the methodology for each one and establish the different kind of resources, and then, when i have enough experience i can established some patterns, and then the job of the requirements will be more sure for the next steps of the cycle of Software Develop and the companies will be spend less time and money in this part of the projects of software.
