Dear students,

 Today is Thursday, so here we are sharing stories. Last post I told you about a talk in which the speaker talked about frustration and anxiety, but today I want to talk about stories of success.

Some time ago I attended a talk in which the speaker started by asking people about a moment in which they were successful at learning English.

I felt great because I remembered the time I read a complete novel in English, and I felt even better when I heard a lot of successful stories. Also I remember a time in which I helped an American at the immigration office. He had lost his passport, but he couls not explain that in English.

  I think learning a foreign language has a many rewards. I am learning Portuguese now, and even though I cannot give a speech like Dilma Rousseff, the president of Brazil, I enjoy listening to Roberto Carlo sing  in Portuguese or watching Brazilian films.

Also I feel great when I learn new words and I find them again and I see that I improve little by little. These stories of success are the ones that encourage us.

What about you? Tell us about a moment when  you  felt a successful learner.
