CCIE basics – CCNA

CCNA was really painful at first and I felt that I was too far away from CCIE . Every day after class, I was groggy, and I felt like suffering. I really couldn't understand and listen to it but because I didn't record the screen at the time, I went back to review and didn't know where to review. When I grew up, the biggest weakness of my study is that I don't like to ask questions. I always like to study on my own that I don't forget if I understand it. In case I really can't understand, I will leave it and don't ask the teacher. This may due to personality issue, partial introversion and active personality in childhood but since the junior high school began to be introverted. However, it was better when the time of studying at university, unlike before people who don’t know then I won’t even chat with them especially those who are not familiar. But once closed with each other, I will have many interactions with them. Therefore, I am not as active as the other in SPOTO, basically, I was hidden in the group. Therefore, the teacher can't understand my progress, so I was going to CCNP and CCNA in such situation.

CCIE's improvement - CCNP return to CCNA

Although I learned CCNA not very well I could understand it. I didn't understand it when I got to NP. I watched other classmates were able to catch up with class and I was completely out of the team. So, I made up my mind to correct it and I didn't understand it. I would go through CCNA again. So, I decided to watch CCNA content in NP class and lay the foundation for the next time I re-entered NP. In this way, others are on the NP and I was on the NA. Slowly, I felt farther and farther away from CCIE and I began to regret signing up. Since I can't give up after choosing, I went over again after this round of NP and I wanted to lay the foundation. Moreover, I have to start school and as I discovered that my foundation is still too bad. So I think I can't go to the NP course anymore, so I told the class teacher that I planned to go to NP after I had a better foundation in the school and started my self-study content, so my CCIE trip stopped there for a short time. I went to the library and borrowed some books during the school self-study period but because my perseverance was not strong enough, I couldn’t stand it until half of the book was read. But it still worked, and some of the remaining problems suddenly became clear under the study of reading books.

CCIE's improvement - CCNP restart

Regaining my confidence, I went to the NP in the summer of my sophomore year. Actually, that was not easy to learn but I still able to understand it this summer with the NP class but I always fell asleep during the morning class but a bit fine in the afternoon. In this way, the NP class has been finished without proper understanding. The NP tour is no longer a person there is a new classmate. The impression he gave me is very talkative and outgoing. Soon, he became famous in SPOTO even rest of the classmates including the teacher and finally, I found someone which I can share and I don't have to have meals by alone. Sometimes I don't bother to go downstairs to eat. Then I know another classmate is very bold and I will ask him if I have experiments which I don’t understand and he will also talk to me tirelessly. In this way with their companionship and help during this NP class finished, I understood a lot. Afterward, it seems that CCIE has taken a big step on the road, contrary to the previous one. This time it is not far away but closer and some continue to the next round of learning. For this time, I felt that I am close to CCIE.
