when I started to learn English five years ago, I usually got low marks in the exams, so I was very upset.Luckily, our English teacher was very kind to me and often encouraged me to work hard,sometimes she gave me some English books to read. With time goes by,I became interested in English and made progress in the exams,thanks to my teacher.
