Last year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher
spoke so quickly that I did not understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.
Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story. I fell in love with this
exciting and funny movie! So I began to
How I Learned to Learn English
watch other English movies, too. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language
and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could
get the meaning by listening for just the key words. My pronunciation improved as well
by listening to the conversations in English movies. I discovered that listening
to something interesting is the secret to language learning. I also learned useful sentences like “It’s a piece of cake”
or “It serves you right”. I did not understand these sentences at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary.
Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar so that I can have a better understanding of English movies.
