Despite the fact that I used to score the highest in my class, I was weak in English among my mates up to class 8. In class 9, I realised that I needed to work hard on this subject for better SLC result. I worked hard and improved satisfactorily, which ultimately gave me a score of 82 in English in SLC exam. This mark convinced me that I am not weaker than other English school students in this subject. But I was proved wrong when I stepped into my +2 classroom.I hadn’t lost my confidence even on the first day of my +2 life because I was with one of my best schoolmates on the way. I was successful to keep that level of confidence in the first class, only because it was a Nepali class! After that, the confidence level began gradually sloping down. It took me a whole year to realise that I was very weak in English and another whole year to get myself into the track being inspired from the difficulties I encountered. Following the suggestion from my school’s headmaster, I had joined English medium classes. —diwapyak.blogspot.com
