Today I would like to share my experience of Zee One Time. I helped my cousin study English. My cousin Lin was a secondary school student and she was very good at mathematics and literature. However English is not her strength and she found listening and speaking hard for her. In the end of her final years in her secondary school, she wanted to achieve a high grade in English so she could swiftly pass the examination without any difficulties. Although she asked me for help, I at first refused because I was too busy but after the persuasion of her parents, I decided to help her. I taught her some basic pronunciation of some words and letters such as A for apples or B for bananas. After that I imparted some listening tricks for her to help her deal with fast audio in the exam. In the end she got a night in writing, speaking and age in listening. I was very proud of her success and she was also very thankful for my assistant for her. She said that in the future if she could study something good she will assist me. She will help me back in that subject.
