I love learning languages

I started to learn English at an "old" age. I was 12 years old. Nowadays children start to learn English when they are 3. And I think it's great. They love playing and learning. I think they don't even notice they are learning, it's just a game for them. Futhermore I've read somewhere that there are some sounds we don't hear below 5 years old. This is why it's so important.

When I started, as a young girl, there weren't so many schools where you could go and practice, so my mother thought it was a good idea to have a personal teacher, in an individual class. It was great. She taught me a lot, I learnt a lot and I discovered that I was in love with English.

Later, at university, I started to learn French. It was more difficult, in spite of the similarities between Spanish and French. I think I was too old to learn it. Nevertheless I tried and I did it, although now, since I don't practice, I have forgotten so many words, structures, grammar...

And now, as an adult, I love learning new words of any language, it's the way a culture express its way of life.
