Translation of ovillo

I remember that after highschool I went to study English in New York. First I did not know whether the city was right for me cause I wanted a place where I would not feel lost. However, it was the right choice.
I would gladly be your friend, but I must admit that I have little time for learning because of my work. Maybe we can talk now and see how it goes. If it goes well I can return home earlier.
I have problems with adjectives, endings and articles. The grammar is so difficult. I am very happy to learn Spanish with you. What went wrong with the lessons? Thanks and best regards.
