Its Hygrophila difformis. More commonly known as wisteria. Very easy to care for plant. Great for beginners and breaking in a tank as they are nutrient sponges.

Re
Hold on Simpte, I checked your scientific name out at aquahobby, but the plant's leaves in the photo seem to be thicker than mine? What do you think?
Note: The one marked as C to Miguel A. Pandini is the one I found in aquahobby!

I think its a young plant that hasn't gown yet. Also lighting has a lot to do with this plant's leaves. The more light, the thinner leaves, less light, broader leaves.

Simpte is correct, the leaf shape can also vary according to water parameters.
