But later, I found it interesting to listen to English songs and watch English films. So I decided to study English at Fisk School when I was thirty-five years old. I had class with sixty teenagers in a big classroom at that time. Because I had to look after my son, I stopped studying at the school after seven months. But I kept studying by myself.
