Hi teachers,

Is the sentence below correct?

I would always remember how much more difficult my first day at kindergarten was than my first day at college.

Thanks in advance. :D

The 'would' doesn't sound very appropriate out of context, unless you are narrating your own past in e.g. your autobiography-- I would change it to 'will'.

Oh...thanks a lot :)
