Background Information:T he education systems seem similar for different countries, but we use different terms to describe them. A junior middle school refers to a school in the US for children who are twelve to fifteen years old while in Britain a junior school refers to a school for children aged seven to eleven years. In China, a junior middle school refers to a stage of education after primary or elementary school, and a senior middle school refers to a stage of education after primary or elementary school, and a senior middle school refers to a stage of education after junior middle school and before college or university. More information about the Us education system is available in the following paragraphs.Most Americans attend twelve years of primary and secondary school. With a secondary school diploma or certificate, a student can enter college, university, vocational school and other professional schools.Primary and secondary school: Begins around age six for US children. They attend five or six years of primary school. Next they go to secondary school, which consists of either a two-, three-year program or a four-year program. This is called “middle school”or “junior high school”and “senior high school”(often just called “high school”).Higher education: after finishing high school, US students may go on to college or university. College or university study is known as “higher education”.Study at a college or university leading to the Bachelor‟s Degree is known as undergraduate education. Study beyond the Bachelor‟s Degree is known a graduate or postgraduate education. M.D and Ph. D. are both doctorate degrees, awarded todoctors of medicine and doctors of philosophy respectively.StageⅠPresentationIntroductory remarksThe author presents readers with his own language learning experiences at different stages.

How about you?StageⅢSummaryLearning a foreign language was one of the most difficult yet most rewarding experiences. Although at times, learning a language was frustrating, it was well worththe effort. In junior middle school, my foreign teacher praised all of the students. I benefit a lot from this positive teaching method. In senior middle school, the teacher always punishedthose who gave incorrect answers. So I lost my joy in answering questions and my desire to sayanything at all in English. In college, I had no opportunity to speak in class. I felt intimidated. Online learning changed everything. Although it requires much time commitment and discipline to keep up with the flow of the course, I succeeded in foreign language learning. Learning a foreign language has been a most trying experience. I have learned insights into another culture as well as the language points.
