I start school when I was five. The classes were small and the teachers were friendly. At the eleven I went to other school. Things didn’t go so well as before. I hated to study subject such as biology and physics and I got terribly marks in tests. My parents tried to teach me what I didn’t understand, and it didn’t help. I got very worrying about my exams. Even though I spent a lot of time review my lessons, I failed all the exams and had to take them again a few months late. That was the worst year of my school life. But I never gave up. Now I am proud my career as a successful engineer.
