Essay 2-02a: My lang. learning experience

I learned Japanese, English and French in kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high school and university and other places. I learned only three languages. I leaned languages from early childhood. I thought leaning languages were very important for me because I was able to learn not only languages but also cultures.

I took an English conversation class in the cradle. The classroom was in Kokai. I went there about once a week by my mother's car. My teacher was very beautiful and attractive! I, my mother and my classmates liked her very much! There were many games, card games and the others. And there were many events every year in the class. For example, there were Halloween, Christmas (Eve), Birthday and the others. I was always looking forward to turning their events because I wore a costume and I was able to eat snacks.

When I was a junior high school student, I took an English class three times a week. My teacher played Western European music on the CD as soon as the class started. We sang many songs. For example, Last Christmas, I was born to love you, Help, Let it be, I just called to say I love you, We are the Champion and the other songs. All the songs were very famous in the world! I liked to sing their songs very much! So I was forward to taking the English class every time!

When I was a junior high school student, My English teacher was very interesting! So the class was interesting too! The class was very practical. We were able to understand the uses of English grammar because we were made to say example sentences. So we were able to memorize naturally. I was very happy to meet the teacher!

I study English everyday now. I am not good at speaking, reading, listening and writing. But I have really good time in the English class until now. I am going to take an English class like above and I am going to meet an English teacher like her from now on. I want to be an English teacher in my future. So I want to turn my previous experience to advantage. I want to be a great English teacher!!!
