Language learning... something I´m passionate about. Though, something I´ve struggled with as well. I´m a Spanish speaker who learned English as a second language. My experience in learning English started at 16. Even though I ran into some setbacks, I could indeed get fluent at it. Nevertheless, I still think I is not good enough.

Despite the fact that even now I´m taking an English teaching program. I can assure you however, I indeed am quite good. Just take some time to read my posts. It´s just that I sometimes feel that I could have learnt a lot more if I hadn´t come across lots of logjam. Then again, I still hear the advice that people tell me. ¨It´s never too late to learn anything new¨.

So, I guess I shouldn´t dredge up bad memories from my mind. Back to the main topic, I´d say that you´d be impressed to know that learning a second language is not as hard as you thought it was. This time, I saw Benni Lewis´ speech about languages. Have I heard before that motivation is key to learn anything new.

However, I hadn´t got the gist of the aforesaid phrase. Happiness must tinge your actions while you´re trying something new. Never be afraid of making mistakes while learning. Besides, everyone runs into trouble at beginners level when studying a language. To sum up, I´ll say that Benni has motivated me to improve my English even more; and perhaps in the future, learn a different language.
