How I was learning English. Before the start I want to say one thing: I don't write it as instruction and methods I was using may not be good. My first, roughly speaking, English teacher was my mother. She wrote an English-Russian dictionary for me. Then, in second school class, English classes began. These were good or at least enjoyable classes. But then our English teacher gone and we met another English teacher who was very boring. Then I learned English not at school, but in the palace of culture. There were a bunch of useful lessons. I think lessons there have helped me a lot. Then I dropped it and began to watch cartoons and rarely another stuff with subtitles or without them. And then I began to read stuff on English. And that's all my story.
