发帖数: 111 | 4 I watched news on TV last night,
In China, a young teacher asks his students to shout English instead of read it,
now his classes become very popular.
He said the reason for shouting is try to have the students concentrate on
pronunciation instead of grammar, try to make them overcome the fear to
make any mistake during English conversations. He makes the English the
loudest language in the world, haha. |

发帖数: 80 | 9 Preface
About ten years ago when I finished Grade 12 in Beijing and moved to Toronto
for high school, there were very few Chinese students in the school. Most
of Chinese students were in universities doing graduate level research. In
terms of English, my fellow students and I faced a different challenge from
those in graduate schools. We had to study English together with the local
students, and study physics, chemistry, biology, in English. It is a big
transition for us.

closely related to today’s Germany. They slowly evolved into the Old

Speaking and writing are active learning methods. In China, few people have
the capability to verify your speaking. We can memorize many words and
grammar. Unfortunately, when it comes to oral communication with an English-
speaking person, what comes out of our mouth makes little sense.
As being previously mentioned, Chinese characters are abstraction from
pictures. In contrast, English words represent the sound. As a consequence,
there are more rules in English pronunciation for one t |

unconsciously is even more.
Learning English is a slow process, taking time to accumulate and growing
one's sense. Speaking and reading more is definite.
A practice I follow is to think in English, summarizing today's activity
before going to sleep. It will do magic in the long run. |
