My cousin Li Ming has an amazing story. When he was in primary school, he was very weak in English. He often failed exams, and some classmates did not think he could do well. Despite these challenges, he set a big goal for himself— to become an English teacher.
With the help of his English teacher, Li Ming started to work hard. Every morning, he got up early to read English aloud. After school, he read English novels and practised talking with foreigners online. At first, it was very difficult for him to remember new words. Also, he had to spend extra time on other subjects. However, he did not let these difficulties stop him. He always tried his best and never gave up. After three years of hard work, his dream began to come true. He won first prize in an English speech contest in his city. Now, he studies English at a good university, getting closer to his goal of becoming a teacher.
Thanks to his strong will, Li Ming finally achieved his goal step by step. He is a great example of never giving up. His story helps me understand that where there’s a will, there’s a way. Whenever I face difficulties, I think of him and keep going.
