Some people learn a second language easily. Other people have trouble learning a new language. How can you help yourself learn a new language such as English? There are several ways to make learning English a little easier and more interesting.
The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you feel that you can learn, you will learn. Be patient. You do not have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes. In other words, do not worry about taking risks.
The second step is to practice your English. For example, write in a journal, or diary, every day. You will get used to writing in English, and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English. After several weeks, you will see that your writing is improving. In addition, you must speak English every day. You can practice with your classmates outside class.

A. difficulty B. classes C. reasons
2. What does it mean to feel positive about learning English?
