Many students in Taiwan think that learning English is hard. It is not easy to be fluent in a new language, especially when English and Chinese are so different. However, it is possible to improve if you practice every day and never give up.
First of all, it is difficult to remember so many new words each week. It is easy to forget them if you do not review them regularly. One good habit is to write new words in a small notebook and look at them before you go to bed. This can help you keep them in your memory for a long time.
It is also important to practice speaking every day. Many students feel shy because they are afraid of making mistakes. However, it is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. Nobody is perfect at first! It is brave to try to speak English even when you are not sure. Your teacher and classmates are always there to help you.
It is helpful to use English outside of class, too. You can listen to English songs, watch English cartoons, or read simple English books. When you hear and use the language often, it becomes more familiar to you. It is fun to find English all around you in your daily life, from food labels to song lyrics.
It is true that learning English requires a lot of effort. But it is worth it to work hard now. Good English skills can open many doors for you in the future. It is never too late to start, so keep going and believe in yourself!
