Second, I will write about my past day. I have studying English since I was elementary school student. But when I was elementary school student, I studied only Romaji. When I was junior high school student, I stared to study English words and grammar. I like English so I was good at English. When I was high school student, English classes were very difficult. Honestly, I didn’t like English classes. But I liked to study English so I studied English while I listened to English songs at home. So I bought a lot of English CDs and I memorized the words of them. I often looked up words in a dictionary and I also memorized meaning. I studied English with these ways, when I was high school student. And I stared Thai, when I was high school student. I also bought a lot of Thai singers’ CDs and I listened to them everyday. And I bought text of Thai. I studied grammar and words myself. To study Thai was very interesting for me. So I studied it very hard. Sometimes I went to house of a Thai acquaintance. She taught me Thai. Thanks to them, now I am able to speak, listen, write and listen a little. When I was fresh man, I took two languages classes. These are Spanish and Korean. Spanish was very difficult. But thanks to the Spanish classes, I am remembering Spanish greeting phrases. Korean classes were very interesting. I watched some Korean movies. I was interested in Korea so I liked the Korean classes. The day before exam, I had Korean exchange students teach Korean. Thanks to study these languages, I could talk with a lot of exchange students. These things are very useful for me.
