I've found what i've looked for

For a long time i had a complex in using my English skills, though i've learned English language for many years (5 or even 6). I've constantly reminded myself that learning a foreign language can spread lifelong. And so all my knowledges were only on paper. But later i've succeeded in finding some foreign pupils, small kids, and i came across the fact that when working with children you need to make your lesson interesting and fun.

Who has never had to make a difficult choice in their lives?

 

 

I'm facing one now that is making me really  confused.

Dear friends! I don't actually know why I decided to post this blog but I hope you don't mind. Two days ago I was downtown (I rarely go there).
