This document summarizes a language learner's experience using Second Life to practice English. The learner was initially curious about Second Life and joined at the recommendation of their English teacher. They found Second Life easy to begin using and enjoyed exploring different places and chatting with other friendly English speakers. Over time, interacting in Second Life helped improve the learner's vocabulary, ability to describe objects and environments, and provided simulated real-world conversations. While it helped their English learning process, the learner regretted not using voice chat and found it difficult to keep up with group conversations.
