I’m a senior student. I like English very much. Besides attending English
lessons at school,I often go to the English corner in the park near my home on
Saturday morning. It was set up (formed) two years ago. Many high school
students gather there. Sometimes, some college students and even foreign friends
are present at the English corner. There, we practice our spoken English, talk about
what we are interested in, exchange our experience in learning English and so on..
I’ve learned a lot. I have greatly improved myself in English since I visited it. It is
really a great help to me.
