listening is a struggle.
Well, here's the good news. You've already learned to understand one language, your nativew tongue, so you're definitely able to learn one more!
Here's a video to help you with improving your listening skills. We'll be having a lot of speaking and listening practice this year, so let's started!

The man and his friends decided to hang out at his uncle's house , in Boston. That time was raining and they stopped the car because they ran out off gas.Ron wanted to go the bathroom and he went at a gas station -restaurant. Emily who was siting infront, wanted a sprite soda in a coffe cup.The cashier asked her ''WHAT?'' because he didn't speak english ( he spoke spanish).
Emily went back at the car and the cap which she had was warm.It had soda and coffe.She went back at the restaurant to take an other soda but there were too many people in line.Finally Emily tasted the coffe-soda but it was awful.
