One time, I learned something new was when I started learning German during my summer vacation. I decided to learn it because I want to study abroad in the future and I think German sounds really interesting. At first, it was quite difficult because the pronunciation and grammar were very different from Vietnamese and English. I often forgot new vocabulary and I feel confused when listen to new two speakers. However, I didn’t give up. I used language learning apps, watched short videos online and practiced speaking every day for about 30 minutes. After a few which I was able to introduce myself and understand some simple conversations, I felt extremely proud because it was the first time I seriously learned a completely new language by myself. This experience taught me that learning something new takes patience and consistency, Even though it can be challenging at the beginning, it becomes enjoyable when you slowly improve. I also became more confident and motivated to continue learning German in the future.
