MY EXPERIENCES OF LEARNING ENGLISH

I remember my first 4 English levels they were like a nightmare for me. I hated them but I had to take them because my parents forced me to be in those courses. It was like a torture for me to have to go to those classes because they were on Saturdays and I did not like waking up early on weekends. After four levels I realized how really important English was for everybody but specially for me and for my future. Since that magical and clever idea I started to pay more attention in class and I promised myself that I will speak English because I wanted to be someone in the world.
The next levels I was incredibly willing to learn as much as I could and I did it. I found out how easy English was and how quickly I could adquire that language. The fact was that I had decided that English was going to be my second language and without realizing how and when, I only watched American T.V programs and listened English music. I was the best at English class in the school because I already knew what the teacher was going to teach to my classmates, so the school was really easy for me. Actually I did nothing at English classes, I just listened to music or talked to a friend and at the end of the period I always got a ten.
It was really cool because when I wanted to say something rude or something that I did not want the other people to hear or know, I used to tell it in English and they did not understand what I had said. It was funny and helpful sometimes because I used to say out loud what I was thinking without hurting anybody. For example when my mommy scolded me I started to talk her in English and she did not understand anything of what I was saying so that made her furious and she just told me something like: “you know what Paula Camila? I did not understand any word you are saying, so do whatever you want and I just hope you are not saying rude things”. This was hilarious but then I had to talk to her to apologize.
Nowadays, I am more than thankful with my parents for the fact they paid my English studies and I am satisfied and happy because knowing this language has opened so many doors for me and I can not imagine how many other doors English could open in my future. I think learning English has been one of the most successful experiences in my life because it has allowed me to do different things and to know different cultures.
English language is as necessary as your native language because English is the universal tongue, so if you want to know what is happening in the world and you want to be part of it you have to speak English. That is why I am going to study French philology and foreign languages and English language. Because thanks to this experience I realized how much I love the different languages and cultures in the world and that is what I want to do with my life, learn as much languages as I can.
