 * Hi. My name is Lily. I come from China. I am a student . I am eighteen years old. I am studying English as a foreign language. English is important to me beacause I need it for my job in the future. I began learning Englisf when I was very young at the age of eight. I think that my biggest problem is listening . People speak very quickly, so I can’t understand them. English is really hard for me to lear but I like it. I want to be an English teacher .
