Nam’ s ưays of improving his English
“…. In the first year of lower secondary school I had some difficulties in learning English. My pronunciation of English words was really bad and my English grammar was worse. I did not know how to improve them. I didn’t want my father and mother to know about this. One afternoon after the lesson, My teacher of English told me to wait for her outside the classroom. She took me to the school library and showed me cassettes of pronunciation drills kept in a glass bookcase. She also told me how to use an English – English dictionary to improve my English grammar. She said “ Now I think you know what you should do“. I made much progress and only one year later I won the first prize in the English Speaking Contest held for secondary school student in my hometown “ ( progress : sự tiến hành,quá trình; prize: giải thưởng )
