• Phobias are interesting things. Some of them are very serious and can have a really negative
influence on life. The most common phobias are the fear of open spaces or closed spaces and the
fear of heights and flying. Doctors say all phobias are treatable. Phobias are irrational fears of
something. There is no logical reason why someone is afraid of going outside or of flying. It’s all
inside the sufferer’s head. I understand some phobias like the fear of flying, but not others. Some
people are afraid of babies, or computers, and even of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your
mouth. That phobia has a really long Latin name. I wonder if there’s a phobia about the English
language. Perhaps that’s grammar phobia.

worried to leave their homes.

With your
group
recreate a
story based
on some of
these points
• Whether we admit it or not, most of us are scared of something. Sometimes, we grow out of it. When I was
little, I hated the dark. I slept with a small nightlight on; my parents would switch it off when I had fallen
asleep. Now, I can't get to sleep with a light on; I need it to be dark to fall asleep! That was one of my smallest
phobias.
• However, There’s no denying that learning a foreign language is difficult, and when it comes to speaking in the
language, it can be extremely daunting. I remember walking into my first-ever Spanish class at university only
to discover that half of my class were already fluent in multiple languages. It’s safe to say I felt out of my depth
just because they were already way ahead of me!
• At first the thought of speaking in Spanish terrified me; not only were my vocabulary and grammar very
limited, but I had never spoken another language before. Despite my initial apprehension I was determined to
overcome my fear, and by adopting a few simple strategies I have been able to build my confidence and
develop at my own pace. So, I thought I would share a few tips with you in the hope that you find them useful
too.
Firstly, remember it is OK to make mistakes and that you should embrace them. This sounds obvious, but
when it comes to language learning we often aim for perfection and feel as though we are not ready to speak
until we have ‘enough’ words or grammatical knowledge. The truth is you will never feel ready, and instead it
is important to use the knowledge that you do have to communicate what you can.

This leads on to my next tip: don’t compare yourself to others. This can be a hard one, especially if you are in a
large language class. It is important to remember that we all learn at different speeds and through different
styles of learning. By all means, keep up with your class material, but do not stress if you don’t understand
everything – especially in the early stages.

Something that really helped me progress was finding a patient language exchange partner. Finding
someone to practice with whose level of English was similar to my level of Spanish made me feel much more
confident.

Lastly, celebrate the small successes and remember how far you have come! Instead of focusing on how far
you have to go, focus on the progress you have already made and be proud of your achievements!
