About talking and conditionals
My biggest struggle in English is pronunciation. My tongue and my voice track are used to pronounce the five vowel sounds of Spanish, so it's not easy for me to speak clearly. However, a lot of Spaniards speak English greatly, so maybe it's not the five vowel sounds to blame, but me. I've talked in English and had meaningful conversations with native speakers, what it means I can pronounce in an understandable way. But I would like to sound like those people who switch from French to English and it seems they have different voices. How do they do that? For me is talking Spanish with English words, or at least that's how I feel about it, haha.
Talking about grammar, I find it difficult to master conditional sentences. I know them in theory, but when talking my brain slows down and I'm not able to use them without spending an eternity or getting them all mixed up.

You say "I used to <verb>" for actions done in the past, but you say "I am used to <noun or verb + -ing>" for things you are accustomed to. This sentence uses the second situation - your tongue is accustomed/used to the 5 vowel sounds in Spanish.
Es como "cuando empecé a aprender inglés, pronunciaba los vocales mal" y "estoy acostumbrado a pronunciar vocales en español".
However, a lot of Spaniards speak great English greatly, so maybe it's not the five vowel sounds to blame, but me.

Good job! Pronunciation and conditionals are hard, keep practicing and you'll be great at them soon :)
