General introduction about the changes
The biggest change in my life was becoming much better in English. This is thanks to my English teacher, Mrs. Wang, who gave me an interesting book to read. I enjoyed it so much that I started to read other books. This is the most important change because I am no longer afraid of the English language and I am doing better in my exams. This has made my parents even prouder of me.
