Chapter 142 Your Sister Called_1

Basil Jaak closed his book, laughing as he said, "How else, but by practicing, of course. I recall telling you that I used to live abroad for three years where I had to speak English and the local language. I spent everyday practicing whenever I had free time, even turning on the radio to mimic the announcer's pronunciation. I practiced so much that I almost forgot my mother tongue, people almost took me for a madman."

Dawn Sutton grinned and nodded in agreement as she heard this, saying, "Absolutely. Language acquisition requires diligent and hard practice. There are no shortcuts. This is also why I often assign numerous assignments to my students, which is probably why most of them are not too fond of me."

When Basil saw a hint of disappointment in Dawn Sutton's eyes, he quickly reassured her, "Don't blame yourself too much. They're still young and they might not understand your good intentions yet. They will once they grow up."
