Recommendations
Study more, but observe the way you study.
Some students only look at the book to study.
Ideally, students should write on piece of paper,
repeat sentences again and again,
memorize the definitions as well as
look for opportunities to practice constantly.

Look for exercises on the web

TRANSLATIONS (Use real English)

Never translate without verifying with your teacher

Blame for trying! = No me culpes por intentar

Constant Practice
