How I Learned to Learn English
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 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 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.
