Essay 2-01a: Languages I have learned

I have learned three languages.  They are Japanese, English and German.  The language that I was interested is English, so I entered KGU to study English hard.  Also, the language that I was difficult is Germany.  I want to go to Germany, so I studied German last year.  Moreover, I can speak Japanese because it is my native language.

First, I am going to write about English.  When I was three years old, I learned English for the first time.  When I went to a preschool, a teacher of foreigner came to a preschool.  I learned many English words while I watched a lot of pictures.  I was very fun then.  Also, when I was five years old, I went to a private supplementary school.  I learned English there.  I learned English while matching it with rhythm.  Therefore I was able to learn English happily. 

Then, I learned English when I was a junior high school student.  I read textbooks of English, and I talked with the teacher of the foreigner.  Moreover, I learned English grammar.  When I was a seventh grader, my class teacher was an English teacher, so I became to like English.  Therefore I went to two private supplementary schools to study English.  Then, I took practical English skill official approval several times when I was a junior high school.  I was all a blow pass.  When I was a ninth grader, I took the third grade.  It was a little difficult for me.  When I passed it, I was very glad.  What's more, I studied English hard because I wanted to go to the first desired high school.  However, I wasn't able to go there. 

When I was a high school student, I learned English in detail.  When I became a high school student, the number of English words increased, so it was very hard for me to learn new words.  Also, there was that one word had plural meanings, so it was difficult for me to suppose a meaning from a sentence.  Moreover, compound word increased.  Therefore it was difficult for me to translate English into Japanese.  I studied English hard to enter a university.  What's more, I studied practical English skill official approval associate second grade to pass it when I was fifteen years old.  Then, I took its second grade for two years, but I didn't pass it. 

I entered KGU last year, and I studied English technically.  English was too difficult for me, so I hated it last year.  Also, there was a lot of homework.  However, I was able to learn many things.  I was surprised at quantity of homework this year because there was more quantity of homework than last year.   I studied English central, essay, book reviews and so on this year.  Also, I studied speaking, reading, writing, listening for two years in this university.  Moreover, I studied English grammar last year.  I didn't like talking with foreigner, but I became to be able to talk with foreigner.  It is big progress for me. 

Next, I am going to write about German.  I learned it for the first time last year.  I studied it for a year.  It was very difficult for me, so I studied it hard before I take the examination.  I learned German grammar.  For example, I learned relative pronoun, comparison, and infinitive and so on.  Also, I practiced speaking German in front of the teacher.  I was nervous then.  However, I was not tense, and I came to be able to gradually speak German.  If there is an opportunity, I want to learn German next year. 

Finally, I am going to write about Japanese.  Japanese is my native language.  Therefore it is easy for me to learn Japanese.  I studied Japanese from a first grader to a high school student.  However, I don't like Japanese class because I don't like reading books.  Also, it is slow that I read a letter.  Therefore I want to come to understand contents of the story as soon as possible.  What's more, I can write many difficult kanji and want to come to understand a Japanese meaning.
