Just a small story about
my friend.
Priya walked happily to
school. It was the school Speech Day and Priya was going to receive a prize for
English. Her parents were coming later to see her receive the prize.
Priya remembered how she
had worked hard to improve her English. She knew that she would only success if
she worked hard at it. Her mother once told her, ‘if you run into a wall, don’t
turn around to give up. Find a way to climb over it’.
That was what Priya did.
She though of ways to improve her English and worked at them. She borrowed
books from her school library and read them carefully. She learned the meaning
of the difficult words and used them in her essays. She tried to speak in
English as often as she could. She knew that being afraid of making mistakes
was not going to help her.
She also asked her class
teacher, Miss. Rukumani, for extra help. Miss. Rukumani willing to read through
her essays and taught her how to improve it. Slowly, Priya improved. She felt
confident and took part in class activities more eagerly.
Finally, she won prize in
English Competition. Actually, it was a state level competition and she was the
overall winner. “This is just the icing on the cake”, Priya told herself as she
walked towards the school hall. I’m very proud to be her friend.
