My problem with English
I have a big problem with English. When I'm watching something in English I really need to put too much attention to understand every word and that stress me. This happen me even with music that I like, I mean, in Spanish I can listen to music and make something else at the same time and understand all the song, in English that's not possible because I feel like this language is spoken so fast and the sounds aren't cleare for me; but when I put English subtitles it's like magic because I understand even more.
The problem here is that in real life there is not subtitles in the conversations and that make me feel less confidence to practice with a partner (even when I'm on italki for that).
I think my problem is with the pronunciation because I challenged myself reading in English and I understand, there are some words that I don't know but even with that, I feel more confidence reading than listening.
Do you have some tips for me? Thanks.

My Problem with English (Remember to capitalize your title.)
I have a big problem with English. When I'm watching something in English I really need to put too much attention to understand every word and that stresses me. This happen to me even with music that I like. For example, in Spanish I can listen to music and make something else at the same time and understand all the song. In English that's not possible because I feel like this language is spoken so fast and the sounds aren't clear for me; but when I put English subtitles it's like magic because I understand even more.The problem here is that in real life there is no subtitles in the conversations and that make me feel less confidence to practice with a partner (even when I'm on italki for that).

In my opinion, you don't have any problem. With practice your mind will get used to the faster tempo. When I started to watch Grand Hotel, boy, did they speak fast! However, after I had listened to the first 3 seasons, listening to Morocco, Love in Times of War, I understood most of it. It's a matter of getting used to listening. One thing you don't have is any problem with English, you write very well! Try to listen to various programs, i.e., the BBC news, audio books in English, even leaving your computer read out text. Also try to chat with as many different people as possible. Skype is good and if you can find someone you can ask for clarification and help, take advantage.
