My English learning journey
Hello, my name is Julia Gamarra Ccanri, I study at La Salle High School. I am studying a
professional career in early childhood education and I am in my fourth semester.
When I started the English course, I knew nothing about the language. I was a little afraid,
especially with the pronunciation. Also, I compared learning English to learning mathematics, a
subject I never liked because it involved memorizing formulas.
However, as I continued studying, I realized that my improvement was astonishing.
Now my English is better than it was at the beginning of the semester. I understand more and
feel more confident writing. But I still struggle a bit with pronunciation.
Next semester I will try much harder to overcome my difficulties. I will practice speaking every
day to improve my pronunciation and feel more confident in speaking.
I think my teacher has a very good teaching method. His way of explaining helps me to
understand the concepts clearly. However, sometimes I'm a little afraid to ask questions
because I worry that he thinks I'm not very smart. But I know that asking questions is part of
learning, so I will try to be braver in the future.
Learning English is giving me more self-confidence and making me more open-minded. I feel
proud of my progress and excited about what I am going to achieve in the future.
