Like pulling teeth

I went to the toastmaster online meeting  tonight and learned a new idiom from my fellow toastmaster: Like pulling teeth.

 

She was talking about how challenging her new position at her company was: It was like pulling teeth...

 

I googled the idiom’s meaning after the meeting: The phrase like pulling teeth describes something that is difficult to do, something that requires a lot of effort, something that is tedious, tiring or unpleasant.

 

May I say learning English for me is like pulling teeth? :) Maybe not. 

 

Thank you for reading. Until next time!
