I came across this quote the other day and had to share it! I think most of us can relate to this feeling of wanting to give up on something because it's too difficult, but if we take a moment to remember why we wanted to do it in the beginning, we can feel more passionate to continue on!
I receive so many emails from students who say their English is really poor and don't know how to learn. I'm sure this is the same for a lot of you. Learning a new language is really challenging. You may feel unmotivated to keep learning when things don't make any sense and you don't live in an environment where English is used. No one said English is easy to learn. In fact, there are so many rules that don't even make sense to me!! If you feel like quitting, remember why English is important to you, to your future, to your life goals.
One thing I want to remind you too is that if you are trying to learn English only through textbooks and memorization, it will make it very easy to want to give up. Learn using things that interests you, watch a movie, read a magazine, listen to a podcast on a topic that you like, follow your favorite celebrity on Instagram, join an English Facebook page on cooking, shopping, pets, cars, home decor.....the opportunities are endless nowadays! Don't give up, English can be fun, just think outside the box!
