To spark someone's interest means to make them start wanting to learn about or do something.
Hear it in real life
How did you get into gardening?
My neighbour's balcony sparked my interest in it.
A short video sparked my interest in learning Japanese.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: spark someone's interest on a subject
Say: spark someone's interest in a subject
Use "in" before the subject that attracts someone's interest.
Build it
How it fits in a sentence.
spark someone's interest in something; spark my interest in
Your turn: say it out loud
A short video sparked my interest in learning Japanese.
Say it out loud two or three times, until it feels like yours.
spark someone's interest
make someone start to be interested
“A short video sparked my interest in learning Japanese.”
