“A week before spring break, I had a conversation with a student about language learning. Since I was a language learner myself, the student asked me for tips on learning a second language. Instead of sharing some tips for improving English learning, I shared my story on language learning. In the past, my goal was to be an expert in a language, but now my goal is to admit what I don’t know and be more honest than I used to be.
