English is my mother tongue. Besides, I can speak French and Spanish. I studied the two
languages when I was at highschool. Now, I am still learning Spanish at the University. As for
me, mastering a foreign language is not easy. After studying a language, practice is very
necessary and useful. Travelling to the country where the target language is spoken is very
helpful, but if you can not speak the language well enough you will certainly have troubles. I
also frequently go to the movies, watch television, listen to the radio in the language I am
trying to learn. Reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I personally think
newspapers and magazines are better. However, getting some knowledge of the language is the
most important thing. Grammar and vocabulary should be mastered first.
