In the USA, English is official language. I come from China. Our first language is Chinese. When we are studying at high school, we are beginning to study English. English is difficult to learn. Some people have a good way to learn English, bus it doesn’t work for me. I just have one way to learn English. Maybe that is not a good way.

Last semester, I had business law class at PCC. This was a difficult class for me because there were a lot of professional words on the notes, and the exam was writing short answers. I need to remember all the notes. Before I had exam, I would use a week to review the notes. This time I learned a lot of words. I feel my English was better.

“It is really difficult to learn.” Some people reply. In my way, I also will say that. If I open my computer, I am not absorbed in my book. I will check my Facebook, check my email, answer my MSN, and download some movies. I don’t focus on my book. When I learn or read book, I must turn off my computer. Then I can focus on my book.

In my case, I am a different student. I can not learn at night. I feel sleepy when I open the book and read for about 10 minutes because I have a class in the morning. I will go to sleep and get up early to learn English. Maybe after sleeping I am not only easily focus on my book but also I can easily to remember the words.

This is my way to learn English. It is tiring way because I need to learn long time, don’t touth my computer and get up early. Although my way is hardship, it is working in my way.
