Learning English: My Experience
Speaking
Answer out loud
Play each question, then answer out loud for about 20-30 seconds. Record yourself, then compare with the model answer.
Why are you learning English?
Show sample answer
Model answer: I'm learning English because I'd like to study abroad one day. It's also useful for the internet, because many websites, games and videos are in English. Besides, I think it's a great feeling when you can understand a song without reading the translation.
What is the most difficult thing about learning a language?
Show sample answer
Model answer: For me, it's speaking, because I'm afraid of making mistakes in front of other people. I understand much more than I can say. However, I've started recording myself, and that has helped me feel more relaxed and find my own errors.
Describe a lesson that you really enjoyed.
Show sample answer
Model answer: Last term our teacher asked us to make a short video about our town. We worked in groups, and I was responsible for the script. It was hard work, but we laughed a lot, and I remembered many new words without even trying.
How do you usually study for a test?
Show sample answer
Model answer: First I read my notes and underline the important points. Then I make small cards with questions and ask my mother or sister to test me. If I have enough time, I also try to explain the topic aloud, as if I were the teacher.
What advice would you give to a student who is starting to learn English?
Show sample answer
Model answer: I would tell them to listen to English every day, even for ten minutes. Songs, cartoons and short podcasts are good choices. They shouldn't worry about being perfect, because everyone makes mistakes when they are learning.
