The Track of My Learning English
It had been a long time since the first time I learn English. It was a great experience. Although I just sang a simple song with my classmates, such as 'Climbing The Mountain', a song which was translated from Indonesians song. Another activities was counting the number from 1 to 10, introducing ourselves in front of the class that used very simple language, and some other activities. It happened when I was in Elementary school, in the 6th grade. Even, at that time we did not know anything about Tenses, Nouns, Subjects, or even Verbs. However, we still enjoyed learning English.
Then, when I continued my study in the Junior High school, I felt that I was interested in English more than before. I thought that English was not difficult as most of people thought about it. If we were interested in something that we do, we will love to do it. And it happened for my self. English is interesting to learn, and English is fun, too.Moreover, the teacher who taught us in class was so nice teacher. Her way of teaching English was loved by most of the students. That was why I, and most of my classmates, got a good mark in English.
In the senior high school, my comprehending in English was increasing a lot. From the experience that I had got in the Junior high school, and also from the courses that I had taken, I realized that English is very important. It is one of the International language that is most people in around the world use it, besides the another International language like Latin, Mandarin, an also French. However, from those International languages, English was the one that I loved most. Besides, English was also the only subject that I mastered most. It was proved by the mark that I got. English got the best result among other subjects like Math, Economic, or History.
After graduated from my senior high school, I decided to continue my study in a college. In order to pass the SPMB exam, first I had to take a course that included the subjects that were in the test. Besides, I had to improve my skill in English, too. When the exam was close, I decided to take English department.Both of them were in UM and UNEJ. Then finally, I passed the exam, and I was accepted in this wonderful university. English was helping me to pass the exam, because the most correct answer came from the English subject.
When I started studying in this university, I thought that I had mastered English more then the other students. In fact, I was behind them. My English skill was nothing. However, it did not make me to surrender. Even, it challenged me to learning English more than previously. Besides, I could learn English intensively with all of my friends. They could help me to improve my English quickly.
Now, it was eight years I have been learning English. As a journey to somewhere, we never got it easily. Sometimes, I have some troubles in learning English. One of them is about speaking. I have no bravery in speaking. However, I try to beat my fear in speaking everyday. I speak with my friend using English, or sometimes I try to imitate the pronunciation on the movie. And it works. Now my speaking is getting better. And I hope I will get no trouble in learning English, whether it is about speaking, listening, or the others.
