Not too late to learn English Viorica is a student in the Beginning High ESL class in the evening When I was a junior high student, English was my favorite subject. I was obsessed with Hollywood movies, and I was dreaming of going to America and making foreign friends someday. So when I went to high school, I took an English course. However there were many bilingual students and naturally they could speak English very well. I gradually lost my confidence and interest in English. As an adult, I thought that it's difficult to communicate with people from other countries and it's no wonder because I can't speak English. Last year, I moved to the US, because of my husband’s job. I have to communicate with teachers of children’s schools. I need to understand driving rules in the US, and more. So I have started to learn English again at adult school. This was my first time to talk with foreign people except for travel. We have different languages, cultures, backgrounds etc. but we have some similar points of view. I noticed that it is so interesting to know each other. Now I enjoy talking to my classmates and would like to improve my English skills. I believe that it’s not too late to learn English!
