Did you have any difficulties before?
How did you face and deal with these difficulties?
What will you do in the future?
Share your ideas.
I had many difficulties before. For example, when I first learned English, I couldn’t understand the grammar. I cried and I always wanted to give up. In the future, if I have difficulties, I will learn from Janek. I will be brave and never give up. I will prepare well and try my best to do well.
