I’d like to tell you about my experience when I had to adapt to a new situation. It came when I graduated from a college. At that point, I wanted to take the IELTS exam, so then I needed to prepare it. And then there isn’t why it was challenging for me because no one superprices me or no people monitored my study progress or something related to it. So then it was hard for me to stay consistent on a daily basis to practice. And there were many solutions that I took. One of them was taking online and offline courses. Luckily, I met my study buddy besides that we became friends. We studied aisles together in the afternoon. We practiced speaking even though that we live far away. My friend was in Tagalog, Central Java and I’m in East Java or Malang. I felt so grateful because after overcoming that solution, I could find my study besides that I could also meet Kainastadi group on specific apps or call it a contact. Together people who also face the same challenging situation.

I'd like to tell you about my experience when I had to adapt to a new situation. It came when I graduated from college. At that point, I wanted to take the IELTS exam, so I needed to prepare for it. The challenge was that no one supervised me or monitored my study progress. It was hard for me to stay consistent on a daily basis to practice. I took several steps to adapt. One of them was taking online and offline courses. Luckily, I met my study buddy, and we became friends. We studied IELTS together in the afternoons. We practiced speaking even though we lived far apart. My friend was in Tagalog, Central Java, and I was in East Java, in Malang. I felt so grateful because after overcoming that challenge, I could find my study routine. Additionally, I could also join a study group on specific apps, where I connected with people who were facing the same challenges. This experience taught me a lot about self-discipline and the importance of support from others.
