　　We have an English corner in our classroom．Every Sunday morning many of my classmates come to the corner．My English teacher Miss Zhang comes here, too．At corner, we all speak English．

　　The corner began last year．At first there were a few students because many were afraid of speaking English．After several weeks, more and more students came here．At first, some students just listened to other students．I was one of them．I was afraid to speak English．I thought someone would laugh at me, but I wanted to speak．I always spoke English in my heart．My teacher kept on saying,“Don't be afraid．Open your mouth．”I tried to open my month．At last, I said“Hello”to the teacher．The teacher was very happy．She said“Hello”to me at once．From then on, I began to speak English．I work hard at English and I try my best to speak more．I learn from my teacher and my classmates．Now I can speak a little English．Every Sunday morning, I come to the English corner．

　　It's a good place to speak English．Please come here．
