Reading is a relaxing way to learn

I like to read. It is just as simple as it sounds. I read everything, from signs in the strees to huge books from a library. One of my last memories is precisely when I started to read.

Of course, I always had my favorite readings. Although I used to read almost everything, my preferences were inclined to literature. I loved novels and short stories, and, in many ways, every good story was delicious for me. So, when I began to learn another language, one of my favorite subjects was Reading.

Recently, I found out I was enjoying not just the story itself but the learning process as well, while I was reading. Reading allows me to understand contexts, to view structures, to adquire new words I never thought I would need. It was fun.

Why did not my English teachers include such kind of teaching in my old lessons? My English lessons used to be so boring, so dull. I never had a similar experience in high school. In fact, I was terrible in those days. My self confidence did not exist, and I used to think that I would never learn any other language in my life.

So, I am grateful for all the new perspectives my present readings have brought to me.
