I started to study English by myself when I was about 15 because of Michael Jackson. He’s been my idol since 1991, and I really wanted to understand him and his music. 1. I was very patient, and that helped me a lot in the process of learning English by myself.

Actually, I can’t describe the techniques I used to learn it, because it was almost automatic for me to start understanding English after a period of hard work trying to translate texts, dialogues and songs. 2.

One thing that I can say is that I started learning English through comparing patterns and observing the language structure, comparing it to Portuguese and trying to memorize rules. 3. Another thing that helped me a lot is the fact that I would spend hours studying the uses, tenses, etc. of the words I could notice.

4. It was the hardest part of the process for me, because the only source I had was music, although I used a pronunciation dictionary , too.

5. Later on I entered UFMG and really started studying English. Today I’m a teacher at an English Course, and I really enjoy it, because I can improve my English each day.

A．Despite the difficulty, I could learn everything well.

B．So I really can’t say exactly how I’ve achieved proficiency(熟练).

C．With the help of my teacher, I learned pronunciation well.

D．So I can say that a strong will is the key to my success.

E. After having a large vocabulary, I started working on pronunciation.

F. And I used to make lists of words in order to memorize them and their meanings.

G.I used to use a dictionary to find the meaning of each word in songs written by him.
