I still found it very challenging for me. It was really hard for me at that time. Sometimes I felt so depressed about how I managed the skills and all the terms. It was very complicated for me. I didn't understand. My teacher was very scolding, asking, 'Why don't you understand? Why don't you do that for others?' It was just very panicking at that time. But overall, day by day, I improved myself. I wanted to learn this skill because it's very important nowadays when you work outside; it's very important right now. That's why I chose to learn this skill, but it was very difficult because of all the terms. All the things were stuck in my head. I felt overwhelmed at that moment, sometimes wondering what I wanted to do, what it meant, and the good and bad terms. I didn't understand everything, but later on, I started to grasp it slowly. Now, I feel more confident and have a better understanding of the concepts. So that's it.
