I have been learning(i) English for seven years now.

But last year I was not working hard enough for English, that's why my marks were not(i) really that
good then.

As I want to pass my English exam successfully next year, I am going to study(i) harder this term.

During my last summer holidays, my parents sent(i) me on a language course to London.

It was great and I think I have learned(i) a lot.

Before I went to London, I had not enjoyed(i) learning English.

But while I was doing the language course, I met(i) lots of young people from all over the world.

There I noticed how important it is(i) to speak foreign languages nowadays.

Now I have much more fun learning English than I had(i) before the course.

At the moment I am revising(i) English grammar.

And I have already begun(i) to read the texts in my English textbooks again.

I think I will do(i) one unit every week.

My exam is on 15 May, so there is not(i) any time to be lost.

If I pass my exams successfully, I will start(i) an apprenticeship in September.

And after my apprenticeship, maybe I will go(i) back to London to work there for a while.

As you can see, I have become(i) a real London fan already.
