Question

My name is Christine and I’d like to tell you how I learned English.

Here in Brazil we started to have English classes in high school. When I finished school, I wasn’t good at English. But later, I found it interesting to listen to English songs and watch English films. So I decided to study English at Fisk School when I was thirty-five years old. I had class with sixty teenagers in a big classroom at that time. Because I had to look after my son, I stopped studying at the school after seven months. But I kept studying by myself. I learned by listening to English songs and watching films. When I had problems, I tried to find answers on the Inernet. During that time, my friends helped me a lot.

Now, I have no problem in speaking or reading. Most people are surprised when I speak in English.
