what is the most difficult part of learning English? English isn’t my mother tongue. So on the whole, It is difficult to learn English in korea, especially pronounciation and conversation. English is a language so that it requires lots of practice to speak fluently but korean style of education has put emphasis on grammar excessively. Many exams about English was fill in the blanks. I was very confused about the latest speaking craze because I has been used to these type of exams. I have almost never spoken in English.

It make me to study English in relatively limited situations. Fortunately, There is quite a few native speaker in korea. The most substantial and realistic way is that I gonna be a language exchange partner with them. I will think how to I meet them and propose it.

And I realized her image was similar to that of the professor. I tried to follow her behavior to share feelings and my parents encouraged me to study hard. But unfortunately, we came to know that I didn’t have a talent for study. Time after time, after we graduated the school, I’ve lost contact with her. Even after all these years, I still recall her images whenever I see a woman lookalike.

The alchemist, book written by PAULO COELHO He was sitting in a bar very much like the other bars he had seen along the narrow streets of Tangier.
