NHKの英語講座をフル活用した簡単上達法 (祥伝社黄金文庫) (2009/03/10) 川本 佐奈恵 商品詳細を見る

This is a book referring to an incredible method how to keep studying English. The author, Ms Kawamoto, started learning at the age of 32, hoping to achieve something new for her except raising her three children. "I couldn't speak English at all," she said in her book. "When a native speaker asked me where I lived, I had trouble answering his question!" By grace of her strength, however, she has been around as an English teacher lately.
Actually, I've known her for almost 10 years. We both were English learners who listen to in an English program over the radio. Although we didn't see in person, we sometimes exchanged email. As time went by, she started showing great promise as a guide for English learners, and she got some jobs relating to English on the Net.
I know she made an effort and it paid off. I understand that, but I can't help feeling depressed that there isn't any hope of my success. I must admit that learning English is just my pastime. I was very disappointed to hear someone saying that, but what she said is very true. I feel like I've been just spinning my wheels. Oh, you don't bother to tell me this: envy will get us nowhere. I would say this if I were you. I am who I am. I've been studying English just because I love English. I know it's good enough for me, but how can I stop feeling empty?
