Hi, Ann! What are you doing here?
I am preparing a talk in English. I think I must find a CD. Is it nice to listen to a CD and do tasks? Yes, it is! You know, I used vocabulary and cards with words last year, but today I learn English using CDs on a computer. You are right! I also wrote words on pieces of paper and stuck them in my bedroom last year. But now I listen to dialogues, short stories and do tasks on a computer. Isn’t it difficult to describe pictures in English and use words in dialogues and topics? I don’t think so. It is enjoyable to speak in pairs, groups and learn speaking English together. You learn more from each other and have no difficulties. Why is Ann interested in the English language? What are the difficulties in learning English? |
