Well, there are lot of situations in our life when we have to speak in English in every step of our life with the foreigners as well as the native speakers. But here today I will explain my situation where I speak in foreign languages for very first time and I was very confused as well as very saddressed because my father was also with me. The language was English. Basically, couple of years ago, me and my father visited Amritsar to explore the place which is a religious as well as a historical place. At that time, there were a lot of native speakers over there to visit the beauty of Amritsar. But they didn’t knew too much about the place where they visited. They wanted to learn about the historical facts over there. They were looking at the people who can speak with them in English and they can speak with them in English so that they can tell them about the history of that place. I decided to help them but I was only at the seventh class over there but I wanted to explain them about all the history as well as the historical facts of that religious place. So my father was also with me. He took me to talk to the foreigners. I say them hi, hello and then I started to explain them about the beauty as well as the historical facts of the place. Although I don’t have too much English language consistency but I wanted to tell them about the goodness of that place. They were very happy at the end because I explained them very clearly and very nicely way. They thanked me and my father and at that time my father was also at the cloud nine because I was able to help them at my shorter ways. So that was the situation when I helped the foreigner speakers by speaking the English language.

Well, there are a lot of situations in our lives when we have to speak in English at every step, whether with foreigners or native speakers. But today, I will explain my situation where I spoke in a foreign language for the very first time, and I was very confused as well as very stressed because my father was also with me. The language was English. A couple of years ago, my father and I visited Amritsar to explore a place that is both religious and historical. At that time, there were many native speakers visiting to appreciate the beauty of Amritsar. However, they didn't know too much about the place they were visiting. They wanted to learn about the historical facts there. They were looking for people who could speak with them in English so that they could learn about the history of that place. I decided to help them, even though I was only in seventh grade at the time, but I wanted to explain to them all the history and the historical facts of that religious site. My father was with me, and he encouraged me to talk to the foreigners. I said hello and then started to explain to them about the beauty and the historical facts of the place. Although I didn't have much consistency in the English language, I wanted to share the goodness of that place. They were very happy in the end because I explained everything clearly and nicely. They thanked me and my father, and at that moment, my father was on cloud nine because I was able to help them in my own way. So that was the situation when I helped the foreign speakers by speaking the English language.
