Hey guys, I notice we all have a story behind our language learning journey. It would be great to share the story with other people.
If anyone interested in sharing your story with the world, just leave a reply here and I will be in touch. We will have a lovely interview. After that, we will edit the video to spread the story to others. As I’m learning Mandarin and it is quite a challenge to me even though I’m Vietnamese, I received the motivation when I’m supporting the students and know their stories.
Hi Amy, I would be interested in sharing my story.
Not much of a journey myself. I just don’t want to be one of those expat wives who spend a couple of years in a country without taking any interest to learn the language of their guest nation. But seriously, life is so much easier and local people approach you completely different when you bother to speak the language, no matter which level you are at.
I am learning Korean as I love Kpop so much. When I was like 12 or 15, I memorized every single word in the lyrics even don’t even understand a word of Korean. Not until I was in university, the school requires to have a third language besides English, that was when I started learning Korean properly.
Now I am learning Mandarin so that I could understand my colleagues That’s the most encouraging at the moment.
