It has been more than 25 years since I first learned alphabet in my middle school English class. As a learner I have used hundreds of ways to learn English from GTM that made me almost like grammar expert to 6 month- intensive staying in English speaking country. There have been times when I was confident of my English ability and sometimes I felt depressed because of slow progress in English learning. I think language learning is a bottomless pit. We make every effort to learn a language such as English. After spending numerous time and money and reaching a certain level, we tend to forget it quickly unless it is used on a regular base.
After I became an English teacher, I'm still having a hard time improving my English. That is one of the reasons why I'm here with my two kids studying at CSULA. Now We all started to learn English here from a scratch. It seems that my boy and girl are one step ahead of me improving speaking ability. I'm thrilled at the thought of how much my kids will develop their English two years from now.
I wish you all the best in your current and future English learning process. I think, your kids have a great chance to learn English here in the U.S., and in two years they will become near-native English speakers and will surprise everyone in Korea. Good luck!
ReplyDeletep.s. It's nice to see some Korean in your page, but it was hard to find the reply button, etc. :)
sorry about that . I didn't intend to make my blog include some korean words, though. It's just that my lap top was initially installed in Korean setting.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could find out how to change it
