My language learning experience started early. I first began learning English when I was 8 years old. Throughout my elementary school, secondary school, my English teachers taught me grammars and vocabularies. Then I went to an international school where everything was taught in English. At that time, I learned a lot more English by communicating my high school teachers in English, writing my homework in English and reading English novels. After school, my favorite way to learn English is to combine language learning and entertainment. For instance, I love watching situational comedies so I watch The Big Bang Theory and 2 Broke Girls without subscription. In this way, I could train my listening because I try hard to recognize what they are talking about, I could improve my speaking by repeating their words, and I could know more about American Culture by understanding the plots.
After taking the surveys, I realized that I am an aural learner. Therefore, I got several inspirations for efficient language learning. For example, I should be involved into the classroom and discuss topics with my partners. Also, I can utilize some visual material to deepen the impression. Furthermore, I can expand my notes by using different colors, writing down anecdotes, and reflecting upon the culture behind language.
