My road of English learning

My road of English learning

08-08-11

I have been in English world for seven years .From being blank to realizing its essence, learning English has already permeated my daily life, becoming one part of my life.

I started learning English in junior high school. At first glance, it seemed like opening a new world for me. All of it was so strange that I had nothing to do with it. However, it was so surprising and I was attracted deeply. With the guidance of my teachers, I learned quickly and effectively. It took a short time for me to grasp the basic words and grammars. As what was said “Interest is the mother of success”, I made great progress in English in my junior high school. English brought me excellent fraction –and more importantly, interest –to make my efforts to learn English.

Then I went to senior high school, I kept my interest to learn the new world of it. My teacher was glad to help me. However the fact is not always that smooth, to the second year, something went against. There was a new teacher who taught us in a quite different way. I did not adapt to the new way. Even though I did my best, I only got the average level. Every day, we aimed at sprinting college entrance examination, we must do a lot of tests. It was far away from before, we were left little time to do practicing, speaking. The lower scores, the more I was disappointed. So I had a hard time going through my junior English study. It was no doubt I made no perfect grade longer.

Time went by quickly. I came to university. I recognized it was also a new world. Here I owned much more freedom and time. I felt like being liberated and turned back, seeking for self-confident which I lost. I did it in my own way. I listened to English songs, participant English speech competition and so on. Now I have passed CET-4 and CET-6. It is a relief to know that I have achieved the result that I had long desired for but time and fate had earlier denied me. I bathe in English sea again.

Gradually, in the course of learning English, I become aware that English learning with being not interested and being lazy can not go hand in hand, that in essence, I would do it in my best again, gladly.
