I never had a blog before and never had to write that much in English. Mostly I refilled some incomplete texts or alternative questions during my English class in school. The times that I wrote in English were when I wrote to my aunt who lives in France.
I really enjoy learning languages so I tried to take advantage of this opportunity. Writing in a different language it's a challenge that let you increase your vocabulary and create a new kind of relationship with the online dictionary Word Reference.
I can't deny that some days was really tedious this constant work, furthermore I remember one day that I fell asleep in front of the screen. Nothing but tiredness of the sociology lectures that I have Tuesday morning.
But all that effort was worthy. The most of the words that I knew before blogging were learned by ear and when I started to write I realized that I didn't knew how to write those. So I started to use the named dictionary. That’s how now I feel more secure writing word like "awesome", "throughout time" and "judges".
I my view the main advantage of blogging in English class is that you can practice two stuff: the English itself and how to order your ideas independent of the language.
I think that if you start to worry more of the order of what your write, that the words that you use, it's the reflex of that you've learn something important, you've make a big step. And that's how it had work for me. I'm not saying that now I'm a British Knight or something similar. I've just noticed that now I can write with more confidence, and when I compare my English and my French (I'm learning too, but I've just started this year) I feel very pleased with my manage of this useful language.
To sum up I'd like to emphasize that writing in blogs during these English classes let me go in an area that I had never gave importance, but now I realized that if you want to learn a language you have to manage it in all aspects, and now I'll improve this one in the next semester and I hope that will allow me to have "more than intermediate" manage of English.
