I have a full-time job but I like learning new things in my spare time.

0:00:19.216,0:00:25.016
At the moment I’m studying Spanish, I’m enjoying it but I’m finding it quite difficult.

0:00:25.016,0:00:28.532
[br]Today we are asking people about learning new things.[br]

0:00:28.532,0:00:31.886
I’m learning to speak another language actually.

0:00:31.886,0:00:36.400
[br]I’m learning French, I’m also learning to drive.[br]

0:00:36.400,0:00:39.566
I’m learning to play golf at the moment.

0:00:39.566,0:00:46.283
My husband and my son play golf and when we go on holiday I feel like I want to be able to play with them.

0:00:46.283,0:00:47.882
[br]I’m learning to speak Spanish.

0:00:47.882,0:00:49.484
[br]I am learning Arabic.

0:00:49.484,0:00:58.048
[br]Well, I’ve been learning to play the guitar for about fifty years now, and it’s a constant process, so still learning bits, yes.

0:00:58.048,0:01:01.883
[br]I’m learning yoga at the moment and I find it quite hard.

0:01:01.883,0:01:08.317
[br]The courses I’m taking are training courses for leadership, negotiation, evaluation.

0:01:08.317,0:01:10.817
[br]I’m learning Swahili.

0:01:10.817,0:01:14.766
[br]At the moment I’m learning to paint and draw in evening classes for adults.

0:01:14.766,0:01:17.852
[br]I’m studying part-time after work.

0:01:17.852,0:01:22.217
[br]I’ve just learnt how to do a lot of kayaking.

0:01:22.217,0:01:25.586
[br]I’m learning how to design a website at the moment.

0:01:25.586,0:01:30.497
[br]I’m in a choir, so singing I guess, is pretty much the only thing I’m doing at the moment.

0:01:30.497,0:01:33.346
[br]At the moment I’m taking up a new instrument,

0:01:33.346,0:01:41.699
it’s a traditional instrument from Zimbabwe and it’s called the ‘Mbira’, let me show you…

0:01:43.776,0:01:46.826
[br]What’s the most difficult thing you’ve ever learnt?

0:01:46.826,0:01:48.905
[br]Patience, I think.

0:01:48.905,0:01:50.715
[br]Arabic.

0:01:50.715,0:01:52.161
[br]Courage.

0:01:52.161,0:01:57.202
[br]Learning a language is particularly difficult for myself, so probably learning the Spanish.

0:01:57.202,0:02:01.651
[br]The most difficult thing I’ve ever learnt is Mandarin Chinese.

0:02:01.651,0:02:06.284
I did it in evening classes a few years ago and I found it really really difficult.

0:02:06.284,0:02:13.516
[br]Probably ‘Capoeira’ which is a Brazilian dance martial art, fight thing,

0:02:13.516,0:02:16.550
it’s a combination of all of these things and yes that was very difficult

0:02:16.550,0:02:21.069
because there was a lot of unusual body movements to learn.

0:02:21.069,0:02:23.685
[br]Learning to drive was the most difficult thing.

0:02:23.685,0:02:30.450
[br]Well, I learnt some Sanskrit and that’s got 9 cases two more than Latin,

0:02:30.450,0:02:33.402
it’s quite difficult by most standards.

0:02:33.402,0:02:35.800
[br]I think I found French very hard at school.

0:02:35.800,0:02:41.884
[br]I learnt to play the trumpet at school, that was pretty difficult, and maybe

0:02:41.884,0:02:45.068
