10 Gifs that Perfectly Describe the Language Learning Experience

Erin van der Lee -

The language learning experience is exciting, frustrating, challenging and refreshing all at once. Some people have a natural aptitude for languages. I unfortunately, do not. Here are the feels I have felt while learning Italian this summer:

WHEN YOU SIGN UP FOR CLASS

I AM GOING TO SPEAK ITALIAN. I just signed up for an Italian class and this is going to be so fun.

FIRST DAY NERVES

What do I wear? Why do I even care what I wear? What will the students be like in my class? Do I have the right book? Will I be able to keep up? AGGHHH.

**WHEN THE TEACHER INTRODUCES HIMSELF IN ITALIAN
**

Woah there. Let’s start in English for five minutes, okay?

WHEN YOU SPOT A CUTE STUDENT

You’re cute. Language partners?

WHEN ASKED SOMETHING YOU MAY KNOW

Wait, I think I’ve actually got that one.

AND THEN ASKED SOMETHING YOU DEFINITELY DON’T REMEMBER

Nope, that’s the word for hamster.

WHEN YOU GET A QUESTION RIGHT

I AM THE CHAMPION OF THE UNIVERSE. Yaaasssss.

WHEN YOU DIDN’T DO YOUR HOMEWORK

Please don’t call on me.

AND WHEN YOU ACTUALLY DID IT

I have finally done my exercises. Make today the day I shine.

AND FINALLY, WHEN YOU WANT TO SHOW OFF TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS

*Guys, I learned words!  *
