English Learning Autobiography

Everyone write the autobiography for some reason. Every great man all write his autobiography himself or by someone. For example, Franklin writes his autobiography for warning and as a model. And the autobiography may include many different parts, for example the part of his childhood, education, and so on. And I decide to write my English learning autobiography to record important events of learning English in different periods .And there are four parts about this autobiography from cram school to now.

From the grade of six in the elementary school to now, I have studied English more than nine years. Because of my parents scared that I lose other children. I entered a cram school to learn English. I still bear the process of learning English in my mind. My teacher used alphabet cards to teach us the alphabet at first class. I discovered my interest was English at that time. My teacher called me on the phone and asked me to pronounce sounds which she requested me to pronounce when we learn the vowel and consonant. I still bear I often do something to learn English after cram school. I created the alphabet card, vowel and consonant cards me. I often listened to English tapes to practice to repeat. And because of I often got well, my teacher hoped me to attend the examination named STYLE. When I decided to attend this examination, my teacher copied many question and taught me after class. And I got the best score in the first level and got many presents at that examination. I still bear I was so happy when I knew the result; I felt confidence at first time.

Time passed so fast, I entered the high school to learn basic vocabulary. My instructor was a kind but a little bit strict woman. I learned the structures of sentences, grammar, and a lot of things from her. Although I did not get the best grade in the first year of high school, I still learned well and got the best grade in the third year of high school. When I always listened to tapes to repeat and follow the speaker who in the tape and I studied grammar myself by looking references book every day. My teacher always borrowed the tape or copies the tape to me. Because of I often listened to English, I got the score of ninety in school’s listening examination. I also got the better score in the entrance exam of high school. I always proud and get more confidence even decided to enter the department of Foreign Languages at that time. That was my golden time to learn English.

However, I began to get the failure when I entered the high school. I was unable to believe why English became so difficult. So I must learn many unfamiliar and difficult vocabularies. And my original English teacher taught not well. But my English improved when I changed the English teacher. My new English teacher liked to let us to practice writing more sentences. And he taught us to use these words like there is no denying that, and taught us different kind of composition. Because he taught the composition well, I got very well in the part of composition in the entrance exam of university.

I was very lucky to get good grade to enter the department of Foreign Languages & Literature. But when I went the Linguistic course at the first class, I discovered I was unable to know what my teacher says. Even I regretted my foolish decision to enter this department. But the miracle came when I decided to give up it. Accidentally, I discovered another interest. I was so happy to go to the Western Literature classes. I liked to hear many literary stories like Bible and Greek Mythology. I liked to hear our teacher to analysis literary articles. Her teaching made us to think more the meaning about literary articles. And made me to have a habit means practice to write essay before the mid-term exam or final exam. Because of her relationship, I like to read. And my reading ability becomes better than past. Even I often get very good scores in every literature classes.

There is no denying that my process of learning English is different and I get the confidences and get the feel of failure through a lot of examinations. But I believe that I will love English forever. Because English always the root of my confidence.
