Oh ! My God Story NO. 98
My Private English Lessons ? Part 6
My Big Discovery
I met an American woman, Meagan,
who was introduced to me
by Yoshino.
That was when I was not able to speak English at all.
This encounter brought me a big jump in my English.
On that day, I really enjoyed our conversation and was happy.
That was because I was able to have some conversation
with an American woman for
the first time.
Listen, even I was able to have a conversation in English.
I did it.
I had a conversation with an American woman !
Can you believe
that I was able to have a
conversation in English?
Everyone thought
that I was like Helen
Keller in the world of English.
I was not able to see, hear and speak.
But I spoke English with Meagan.
It was a deeply emotional experience for me.
I will introduce some of the tips
that I have used in my
conversation.
If you know these tips,
you'll be able to speak
English quickly.
"I want to know them now !"
It'll be a pleasure for next week.
Oh ! my God.
