Conceptual delimitation" "social work

Written at on English with a size of 1.7 KB.

In my opinion I have to improve in the field of English is that I have to constantly study since this is a language that is not easy and it is difficult for me, too, must seek help to understand and defend myself more in a debate, exposure, even abroad. My strengths with this language is that it will help me a lot for my career I want to study when you leave with my undergraduate degree.To avoid the same mistake I had this year with English I entered an English course, although not at the same level that helped me a lot. My responsibilities are to study and work hard more, And the goal is to reach the goal, be professional and licensed in tongues
