Beginners of foreign language always meet difficulties from the outset. For me, I had to deal with these problems when I started learning English.

English pronunciation is my first obstacle. The pronunciation in English challenges me a lot because the same has different sounds. Generally verbs and nouns are pronounced differently although they are written the same. Record is a good example to illustrate it.

In order to solve this tricky question I carefully study The A.P.A (The International Phonetic Alphabets) which helps me pronounce English words correctly.

In order to have an accent just like the native speakers, I often listen to radio and repeat after them, trying to imitate them. Moreover, my everyday conversation with the foreigners I encounter in the street will enable me to acquire a proper accent.

Compared with French, English grammar is far easier. Nevertheless, this does not mean that learners meet no difficulties in learning it. It took me a long time to learn how to get the hang of the tenses in English grammar, to endeavor to do as many grammar exercises as possible and read various grammar books.

As for writing English, English language has its own style. In order to drill writing skill, I have tried to read famous novels of eminent America and English writers. I enjoy the humorous style of writing in Mark Twain’s masterpieces, the sentimental and lyrical style of John Keats and the elaborate and polished style of George Eliot.

After hard and long years of English study, how pleased I feel when I am able to read English and American authors without any difficulties and obstacles at all.

English, nowadays, became the international language in almost countries where people could exchange and share information together accurately and simply. Vietnamese civilians living in cities also tend to give their children into some english centers such as VUS or ILA to help them interract with English environment when they are young including my parents. I have studied English when I was in fifth grade. It has been an amazing time because using English to explore knowledge gives me more opportunities to encounter with the human civilization. However, I actually love learning English when I was in tenth grade, after watching a short video clip in the youtube talks about how to train your dogs act as a human beings. Up to now, I have learned English by myself than depending on teachers. My best method is learning with friends in the internet by using Skype, Yahoo, and joining English forums to gain other people’s experience. In my opinion, English is important because it was not a language, but it became a tool for people to connect together. Nobody can deny advantages of the internet, and English is seem to be a key to open the door of knowledge and information in the internet. If we do not know English, we cannot integrate with the global world, and falling behind is a definitely insight result.
