English is important because it’s the global language, and in different countries, people use it as working language. And if we can learn it well, our life will be very convenient, such as when we travel abroad, we don’t need any translator. And if we live abroad and want to read some of the important books or newspapers, we don’t need any translation, we can read the originals. Good English can be useful both to our study and work.

My favorite English teacher is Lucy, she teaches me English at school. Her class is always very interesting because of the games and stories. She always tells us that to learn English well, we must love it first. I think it’s right.
9. What do you think is the best age for children to start learning English?
In my opinion, the best age to start learning English would be 4 to 6 years old, because before that age, children might be too young to understand anything. They can’t learn English well. And after 6 years old, children will go to school, they may have much homework to do, so they won’t have enough time to learn English. So when children are 4 to 6 years old, they have enough time, they have good memories and they can understand many things, so I think it’s the best age for them to learn English.
