preface
English has always been a subject that torments people. We "learned" for over a decade, but we stayed at ABCD or Apple Banana Cat. We often spend time under the teacher's mouth because we don't understand. Not interesting to listen to. In other cases, we even completely abandoned the topic, but will begin to regret later.
English in most cases acts as a tool, a tool that allows you to communicate with the world, but it seems that it is difficult to use as skillfully as an axe, nowadays the price of machine translation and human translation is getting lower and lower. Machine translation software is limitless, as if we have reached the only point where there is no need to learn English.
So let's think about it, aside from being able to communicate, what benefits can English bring to you? Of course, English is a second foreign language, so all cognitive improvements in learning and learning can be provided to you.
But in other ways? Learning a language, of course, in terms of not deifying this learning process, what will this learning process help?
Currently, in addition to foreign words can increase visual advantage, in9dustry can also improve memory ability.
And my personal experience is to improve the ability to read.
So let's start today's main topic.
How to quickly start working in English
How to get started quickly in English, let's not worry about what is called an introduction. But what is the entanglement of what is called fasting, this month? Three months? Six months? One year? If you want to start in a year, even better, congratulations, your idea has theoretical support for proven statistics. For more information, please see my previous blog: language learning for adults can be almost like I started speaking fluently when I started learning as a child . So if you want to start within one year, it's impossible? No, because according to statistics, most people can get their own six-part number, which is above the pass line, in about six months.
However, if you want to rise above the passing line, six-year and even one-year study time is about three hours a day, and this has already stumped many working people.
I've also said a few methods before, but this time more systematically, first of all you have to categorize your time and needs. According to my observations, the following are generally the following categories:
Less time + hear and read
Less time + audible
Less time + listening, speaking, reading and writing
Less time + listening
Or:
Great time
Yes, if there is less time, you need to list the requirements separately, but if you have more time, you can ignore the requirements.
Please note that the time defined here refers to more than 3 hours of study time per day.
If you spend less than 3 hours of English per day, you can categorize it as a time-consuming category and then move on to the next step depending on the point you want to increase.
For example, if you want to improve your reading and writing skills, there is a convenient way:
Listen directly to EST, or you can download ESLpod. Note that the name here is called ESLpod. Later I added it. This is an educational audio for people who use English as a second language. It will be supported in the 18th release. Textbooks lectures, for complete the lecture requires half an hour of exercise .
Use the above listening, shadow reading (about which you can look back: shadow and reading), here to talk about basic skills, in addition to shadow accuracy and reading needs, don't stay, don't stay, don't stop.
Keep an eye on the speed as much as possible while reading so you can deal with it quickly.
As for the ability to read, it is very difficult to increase the number of words, but it is also in order to see your needs, because you can know the knowledge to understand the technical documentation, then you only need to use a simple word segmentation program to get what you want to see. Appropriate technical documentation dictionary, then delete the usual 4000 words or so, then only what you need to return / remember remains.
So, in General, what you have to do is actually the same:
Find the hearing, listen and follow
Combining materials with reading
Reverse word
Then you will certainly ask, then I am used to this, why there is no big improvement, note here we just simplified these processes into the above three steps, in fact, you have done these three steps before, but perhaps some details of the solution Processing determines the effectiveness of your training.
The first detail: you have a test, I suppose most people hate the test, but if the language is just a skill or a tool, then the skill skill can be tested and it will make You can get feedback in time.
The second detail: do you have control? In fact, when you're alone, your enthusiasm for learning is relatively low, but if you have someone who can help with appropriate learning, you'll grow faster and get More opportunities to prove yourself.
The third detail: active awareness, active awareness allows you to get the necessary language training from the beginning, because you need to request a dictionary of foreign languages and the like, lack of initiative, it is difficult to achieve significant improvement.
And depending on the situation, if you use a reasonable review interval, it will also result in big differences in effects.
For example, if you use Anki or SuperMemo or Quizlet to input your own thinking and what you're learning into a map, you can review it in a reasonable amount of time, instead of viewing nothing.
Getting started steps one two three
The author's current level of English is probably above average. I can be honest here. The biggest problem I have faced is not a lack of training resources, but a refusal to learn, which means laziness, but it will lead to survival. After pressure slowly reduce.
One
Search for your favorite English documents, even go to Reddit to see what interests you, then constantly check the words according to the content inside, constantly look down and see that you are not interested in the topic.
Here you need to recommend "Salad Check Words" - Chrome extension
two
Find one or more English short films that you like and try to compare existing English translations after listening to them.
three
Find the recording app, explain the English for the recording app, and then repeat and talk about if you have room for correction. If so, correct it. If not, the next sentence.
After these three steps, there may still be some problems because many people may not be able to learn fully according to the rules, so the key to this core is textbooks and listening texts.
These two load the contents of the tutorial, provided that they are well used, no matter the circumstances, you will find that your learning progress will slowly increase.
Above is the entire content of this blog, briefly, but I tried to explain a specific example, the following topic: how to fix the difference of the basics of English - three examples .
