Writing Prompt: Teachable Moment

If I need to learn a skill. I feel it is important to read about it. If I am unable to make sense of it by reading.  I’d try to watch someone else do it.

The only problem I have with watching someone is sometimes they do it too quickly,I am left wondering how on earth did he do that.My experience with demonstration hasn’t been good. I am not the only one who has trouble. My husband bought a gadget, just by watching someone go through the process, when he came home and tried, things did not work out. This is what he said,”It looked so easy when she was showing it, now I can’t even do one thing with it.”

Hear someone describe it, is not going to work for me either. The best thing I think is to read it and do it myself.

DP Daily Prompt: Take That Rosetta!

If I woke up tomorrow and be fluent in any language it would be Spanish. I did a course in Spanish, I wasn’t able to practice it because I didn’t know anyone who could help. I have lost most of it, but am sure if I get a chance I might be able to regain what I lost.

The first thing I’d do is visit Spain ,there will be lots to see,I won’t have to depend on anyone, there’ll be no language barrier. I can apply my linguistic skills with a friend of ours,he is a Peruvian. I want to surprise him.

I’d be able to travel in Spanish speaking countries. Although it is only make-believe I’m already excited with what I can do with it. This was my kind of prompt, thank you.
