Never Give Up
To be successful at learning English, Never Give Up. Study and use your English at least a little every day. Push yourself to talk with people, practice with an app or website, listen to (and sing) some songs, watch some TV/movies, etc.
A Different Vision of Life
Think about this quote, and how you might see things differently once you learn a new language…
Learning English is like Running a Marathon
- It requires LOTS of practice, and sacrifice (you would often rather be doing something different)
- There are difficult moments along the way, and probably times when you think about giving up
- It feels easier if you can find ways to enjoy it, such as having other people to support you and do it with you
- It takes a long time to reach your goal, but when you do, you get a great sense of pride and achievement
- Even after you finish, you can always continue to improve
Congratulations to the runners of the 2018 Boston Marathon, including Framingham Adult ESL student Cristina, who finished her 16th Boston Marathon! And also special congratulations with much gratitude to Michelle Gibson, who dedicated this marathon to raising money for our school.
