When I was elementary school student, I like to learn Japanese, including Kanji. I was interested in America, when I was ten years old. It is the reason that I set off learn English. There are a lot of pictures and the Stars and Stripes of America in my room on that time. However, I didn’t have opportunity to learn English then. When I graduate from elementary school, I buried time capsule at ground with my classmate. I got picture of “Twin Tower” into the time capsule in order to don’t forget that incident.
Next, I tell you about my junior high school days. I started to learn English at this time. At first I learned alphabet. It is the base, but I delighted to learn it. When I was thirteen years old, I took part in English seminar because of I was recommended my English teacher to join it. I could good experience there. It was my first time that I come in contact with a foreigners, so I remember that I was keyed up over to speak English with them. I made friends with other participants them.
I went cram school, after I entered to high school. Since was more difficult that the English class. In addition to English, I learn Japanese classic and Chinese classic. I was particularly poor at Japanese classic. However, I belonged to humanistic class, I did spend much time on these classes.
Now, I am learning English as my specialty at university. I have four classes relate to English, and these are reading, listening, speaking and writing. These are not so easy for me, but it is a challenging content.
I am especially poor at speaking, so I teach Japanese to overseas student with my friend in English. It is pretty difficult thing, but I will try to progress with my English. When I was a freshman in university, I learned Spanish as a second language. It was so difficult for me, for example pronunciation and spelling. I could learn Spanish culture as well as language. I also learn Korean since this year. Korean close to Japanese in some respects, so it is easer compared with other languages. Since I want to know about Korean culture and language, I exchanging letter with my Korean friend. It is so interesting, so I will keep it!!
I will tell you about the reason why did I start to learn Korean. I like the K-pop singer when I was junior high school student, so I was interested in Korea. My favorite Korean singer is TOHOSHINKI, and their chorus is amazing!! I have many favorite songs, so I can't select the best song. Therefore, I would like to hear their songs. Regrettably, I have never been to Korea, so I want to go to Korea very much!!
Next, I tell you about my favorite Western music is "Man In The Mirror" that is Michael Jackson's song. I especially like the words. My best language is Korean, because Korean is similar to Japanese. Opposite to it, I am poor at Spanish, because it is difficult for me to speak with a trill. I want to learn English and Korean with my friends harder than present.
Finally, I often listen to Western music and K-pop. It helps to memorize a word in common use and pronunciation. It is important things that we are exposed different culture. If we figure out them, we can find other side of own country. I want to learn more other languages from now on!!
