There was a guy named Thompson. Thompson was a pupil. Thompson was a poor pupil. He needed money for learning English. He went to extra lessons of English. But there was a problem. Every month he had to pay tuition fee to an education centre. And his family was poor. His father didn’t work anywhere because of pandemy. Lots of people lost their jobs because of COVID-19 and strict quarantine around the world. Thompson’s mother worked at school. But she got very little salary from the state. They could live up to twenty days only with this money. But Thompson had a purpose to learn English anyways and he wanted to cut the poverty in his family by working abroad. It was his childhood dream. But the situation never let him learn English. He just went to school and came back every day. But one day a new young and enthusiastic teacher came to work at school. He had good knowledge of English and everything else. He was a professional English teacher. Thompson was happy that a new English teacher came to school. He asked for help. A new English teacher John accepted his request and decided to help him. But he had no time to teach Thompson. That’s why, he advised Thompson to learn English at home and gave a book named MY BOOK. Thompson could just listen to the audio of the book and just follow. That way he could learn English only in five months. And he could achieve his goal. Thompson took the book and rushed home with excitement. And showed the book to his father and his father was also happy that his son was going to achieve his goal soon. Thompson started learning English with the book. Every day he rushed home after his lessons at school. Five months passed like this. He went to school and came back quickly and learn English at home. It was very interesting for him to do so. After five months he became a good English speaker. He could speak English without difficulty. And when he finished his school he was going to England and study at university and work at the same time. Because he wanted to cut the poverty in his family. He thanked the new English teacher at school that he helped achieve his goal.
