United States. I would have had the opportunity to have stable job with
the profession I want. I would have the opportunity to meet and interact
with people of the world.
One of the reasons why I didn´t study English before because It was a
bit difficult to master the language. And sometimes I tried to practice
and I was lazy .I didn´t learn English either because I didn´t have the
resources to study. I didn´t understand my English teacher at school
and that was frustrating. The grammar that is used in the English
language makes it difficult for me to write and speak.
