Writing exercise

When I was a child, I was curious about everything around me. So at that time, it was more likely to make me excited. But as I grow up, because I have experienced a lot as well as met a wide range of people, it’s not easy to let an adult exciting too much than before. Having said that, I’m still a big fan of learning new things, such as new techniques or effective skills. One day, I went to an apple store. The shop assistant told me that you could order different types of courses for how to use their products, which I’ve never heard before. The only thing that I could do is just make a reservation beforehand on their app on my phone. It is incredible that you don’t pay any for these classes. After attending several times, I have got a huge number of knowledge about how to use apple product more efficiently and creatively. Especially, I was so amazing that they were able to invite some gorgeous artists to join the class, too. And it is possible for us to create the artwork with them together, such as painting, music and photos. Aside from that, each genius teacher also has their own teaching style, which gave me a lot of opportunities to practice my art skills.

When I was a child, I was curious about everything around me. So at the time, things were more likely to excite me/many things made me curious. But as I get older, because I have gained lots of experience as well as met a wide range of people, it’s not easy for me to become excited unlike before. Having said that, I’m still a big fan of learning new things, such as new techniques or effective skills. One day, I went to an apple store. The shop assistant told me that you could sign up for different types of courses which teaches you how to use their products and I’ve never heard of them before. The only thing that I could do is to just make a reservation beforehand on their app on my phone. It is incredible that you don’t have to pay for any of these classes. After attending several times, I have learnt/gained/acquired plenty of knowledge on how to use apple products more efficiently and creatively. In particular, I was so amazed that they were able to invite some gorgeous artists to join the classes, too. And there were opportunities for us to create artwork with them together, such as painting, music and photos. Aside from that, each genius teacher also has their own teaching style, which gave me a lot of opportunities to practice my art skills.
