My Experience of Learning English
When I was a freshman in Guangwai,I was bored with learning English and suffered a lot in the English class.An English movie changed all of this.One day,a friend of mine asked me to watch with her a movie called “Finding Nemo”.I was soon attracted to the cute little clownfish Nemo,and the funny,meaningful plot.After finishing the movie,I began to imitate Nemo’s pronunciation,which gave me lots of fun.This movie changed my attitude towards English.Soon after that,watching English movies became my favourite hobby,which took most of my spare time.Each time,when I finished the movie,I couldn’t help thinking and speaking in English.The feeling I got from imitating the pronunciation of my favourite character in the movie and their famous words was just great!Not long later,I was surprised at my progress ---- I could understand most of the content of the movie even without subtitles.Wow,that was a wonderful feeling!I was really inspired.Then I became an active student in my English class and began to enjoy learning and using English.
Personally,I think,the key to learning English well is to develop an interest in it first and then spend lots of time learning and enjoying what is learned.Ask yourself a question “Do I feel happy when I learn English?” If your answer is “no”,you’d better hurry up and find something interesting to you.For example,an English movie,an English book,or an English saloon.Also find yourself a partner to watch the movie or to read the book and then discuss about the story with them.Alternatively,take a willing friend with you when you decide to join in an English activity.My friend Peggy was exactly such a person.She and I watched many English movies together,talked about the English stories we both read,and attended many English speaking activities.I benefited a great deal from Peggy’s company,her good English,and even more from her inspiration as she always encouraged me and stopped you from giving up when I almost lost heart in front of difficulties and hardships.Thanks to Peggy’s company and help,I found lots of fun in learning English.Together,we met with many interesting people and made friends with them.This is how I grew interested in English,fell in love with it,and turned myself into a fluent English speaker eventually.
All in all,my secret of learning English lies in two things:first to start with something interesting,and then to work with a willing partner.If you follow my example,with the help of these two,you are destined to enjoy learning English and making cheerful progress.
