2022年1月雅思口语新题part2&3：从老人那学到的困难技能范文

Describe a difficult skill you have learned from an old person .

You should say:

What it is

Why the skill was learned from this old person

How you learned it

And explain how you felt after you learned the skill

A skill that I learned from an older person is writing calligraphy. I have already been very attracted to calligraphy since I was very young – and my auntie in Xi'an taught me from around the age of 8 some of the basic strokes and techniques. My auntie was an excellent painter and calligrapher. She learned from her father, who had spent years studying and teaching Chinese traditional art and painting. She was also incredibly passionate about calligraphy, and enjoyed learning new styles and practicing, both at home on paper with ink brushes, and more recently on tablet software she uses – a much less messy way of practicing!
She first taught me the basics, and then gave me a special brush, stone and ink for my birthday. I just picked it up gradually from then on. I never found it boring at all. And I always had a strong sense of self-discipline to practice on my own. So, my learning curve was an enjoyable one. I was happy to practice for hours on end, watching videos online, copying experts and learning different techniques. I think a big part of learning a new skill, is motivation and discipline, and I had both of these qualities – so I was pretty lucky really. So, I felt really good about learning. I think, to be honest, it's all down to my auntie and her wonderful demeanor and her positive and encouraging way of teaching and inspiring me as a child.
