How to Learn
CEFR A2
Pre-Intermediate
warm up
Answer the questions below. Then listen to the audio answers and report back on what you’ve heard.
| What was the most difficult subject for you at school? |
TRANSCRIPT
The most difficult subject for me at school was definitely math! I really struggled with some of the concepts and formulas, and it felt like no matter how much I studied, it never really clicked. But I had a great teacher who helped me break things down step by step, and that made it easier to get through.
| Have you ever given up something because you thought it was too difficult for you? |
TRANSCRIPT
Yeah, I’ve given up on learning guitar before. I picked it up thinking it’d be fun, but after a few weeks, I just couldn’t seem to get the hang of it. My fingers hurt, and it felt like I wasn’t making any progress, so I just stopped. Looking back, I probably needed to approach it with a bit more patience and structured practice.
| Do you believe you need to have talent to become good at something? |
TRANSCRIPT
I don’t believe you need to have talent to be good at something. Talent might give you a bit of a head start, but I think hard work and deliberate practice are much more important. If you stick with something, put in the effort, and stay consistent, you can definitely improve, even if it’s tough in the beginning.
