    Fuente: SENA

    A. Answer the questions below. Use the examples as models of the grammar and
    vocabulary you have to use.

    1. Why didn’t you study English before? (List at least 5 reasons in a


    composition.)

    Example:

    One of the reasons why I didn’t study English before it is because I thought it
    was too difficult. I didn’t understand my English teacher at school and that
    was frustrating.
    One of the reasons why I didn't study English before is because I was
    embarrassed to express myself, I thought it was difficult, at school they
    gave me a lot of theory and they didn't put it into practice as much, for
    that reason I lost interest, I didn't understand English very well.
    Professor, I did not think that the English language was so necessary.

    2. How different would things be if you had learned English before? (Name and
    explain at least 5 things.)

    Example:

    If I had learned English some years ago I would have accepted a job a
    multinational company offered me five years ago. One of the requirements
    was to speak English and my level back then was very low.

    If I had learned English, I would have participated in the scholarship to


    study in Cuba, it would not be so difficult for me to understand
    foreigners when they come to Colombia, if I had been able to learn
    English I would have been able to accept a job that came out in another
    country, I would have been able to work in a well-known hotel in the city,
    I would understand movies in English better, if I could teach my family.
    B. Record an audio file of yourself answering the following questions. Use the
    examples as models of the grammar and vocabulary you have to use.

    1. Why are you studying English? (List and explain at least 4 reasons.)

    Example:

    I’m studying English because I finally decided that if I want to improve my


    professional profile becoming bilingual is essential.

     I am studying English because I finally saw the need to learn, I decided that
    I want to improve my vocabulary, expression and acquire knowledge, and I
    have recognized the importance and benefits of learning this language, I
    want to help and teach others and one of the great motivations that I have is
    that I want to go to countries where English is spoken and I need to
    familiarize myself.

    2. In what ways are you going to benefit from this learning?

    Example:

    Being competent in English is going to increase the opportunities of landing


    a more satisfying and better-paid job. We live in an international open
    market and English is the most important language.

     Being fluent in English will increase job opportunities nationally and


    internationally, we live in an environment where a productive market is
    evolving every day. In my case, Colombia has many things to exploit, having
    the knowledge we can undertake and have contact with companies, people
    from other countries. In addition to this, we can have the satisfaction of
    traveling and meeting, teaching others. Nowadays, English has become
    very important and has generated constructive changes in people .
