Lan started learning English when she was in grade 6. In her first year Lan had difficulty inl earning English. She didn't know how to learn vocabulary. Her pronunciation of English words was bad and her English grammar was even worse. She used to get poor marks with the English subject. One day at the beginning of the second semester her teacher of English, Mr. Tri gave her a cassette and asked her to listen to it.
He showed Lan different ways of learning English words. He asked her to do grammar exercises in Workbook. He also told good students in her class to help her with her homework.
One year later her English was satisfactory. "Now I'm in grade 8", she said, "I don't find English very difficult."
