What motivates you to learn a foreing language? Learning a new language opens up the possibility to be in contact with foreing cultures, it allows you to see that there's a lot more than you think. It makes your brain work harder, improves your memory, it expands your career potentials, it makes you able to connect with locals when traveling. It even makes you improve your mother tongue! I first became interested in new languages when I was in primary school. My aunt went to France when I was 6 years old. I remember that she lent me her books in French, I didn't understand a single word, but somehow it was nice to look at the books and imagine what they would say. Years later I decided to take French lessons and English lessons simultaneously in school, learning two languages at the same time can be very challenging, later on I realised that English was way more useful to me than French, so I quit French. :( Is in my plans to relearn that lenguage. Although most of the language teachers in Mexico may have great methods but terrible accent. :( For that reason I prefer in most cases be a self-learner, I'd say that Youtube, and Netflix have been my English teachers the last 2 years. Haha.

Hello Miyuki,

 

It is quite difficult to learn two languages at once, and I think it gets more difficult as you get older! Just a few mistakes in your text, one of them a common spelling mistake.  Learn the phrase in blue as a pattern, it makes life easier to learn patterns.

 

Hope this helps
