    Even though speaking and teaching your kids English is very common nowadays in my country, when I was a child, this was not so. I was exposed to two different languages but none of them were English. I only learnt English in school but it was only when reading books or giving a speech. Other than that English was not used much in my surroundings. Due to this, I faced difficulties when I started my Bachelor's in English. However, I was lucky enough to encounter some amazing teachers who never judged me for speaking incorrect English. Thanks to their help I have become a person who can speak English correctly and fluently and even teach others.
