I loved my
internship. At first my goal was to be able to have a conversation without searching
my words and by making the less errors possible. I didn’t touch my goal completely
but I have made great efforts and it succeed. It’s sure that I am not perfectly bilingual
but day after day it became easier for me. I think more often to use my accent
and to pronounce ‘’s’’, ‘’h’’ and ‘’th’’ and I am more familiar with the slang.
I can easily understand an Anglophone person. Sometimes it gets little bit
harder when I the person speak to fast but I just have to ask them to repeat
slowly and if I still don‘t understand, I ask if it is possible to explain it. What
is also difficult is that I am a visual person so it means that it’s easier for
me to understand something that is writing than something that is telling. If I
had to do something different in my experience, it’s the schedule. It was a
little bit too weird having an hour of break between the hours that I had to spend
with them. The other thing that I didn’t
really like was the fact that it wasn’t the same group on Wednesday and Friday
so I didn’t really make link with them. I also had nothing to do in my one hour
breaks. The most challenging is obviously
the way some of them talk. Sometimes you don’t understand anything about what
they are saying so after the fifth time you make them repeat, you have to do
like you understand what they said but it is really frustrating because you
want to know what they are saying. Another thing I didn’t like was the travel
period (like the majority of the class) I had almost an hour of traveling. Except
all theses little things, I loved my internship, it was stimulating and fun.
