学习新事物一直是人类面临的一个挑战。从一开始，我就很难学一门外语。但在努力练习和观察人们如何说话之后，我现在一天比一天好。
当我要进入加拿大的汤普森河大学时，我感到害怕，那里远离我的国家，有着全新的文化和全新的民族。我变得紧张，因为我没有经验在短时间内适应一个全新的地方、语言和文化。
在加拿大着陆后，我开始面临很多从一开始就必须面对的问题。但我不知道的是如何修复它们。对我来说和别人交流不容易，因为我不习惯加拿大的口音。由于加拿大的第一语言是英语，他们有一种自然的口音，听起来像一只鸟在唱好歌。他们使用不同的语调和来自我的母语的压力。也因为我的词汇量不那么丰富，我很难和周围的人交谈。而且，我还害怕犯错误。
当我第一次来到这所大学时，我遇到了许多国际学生，并向他们介绍了我们的孟加拉的文化。作为回报，我还收集了关于他们的文化和传统的信息。我开始观察人们谈论他们是如何说话的，包括他们的表达、语调、压力、词汇表，以及他们如何在谈话中使用短语。我开始用英语和我的朋友们交谈。那些漫长的谈话让我充满了自信。虽然我在说话时犯了很多错误，但我一刻也没有放弃。我不断练习，每天适应我需要的一切。特别是教授和老师们指导我更好地学习英语。
