Today, we are going to talk about practicing English!
And we have Evy and Potter here with us today. Hello!
In 2017, a German research group found that people speak English better when they drink a little alcohol.
Why?
Because the alcohol makes them feel more confident and comfortable.
So, we should take that attitude to practicing English.
We should be confident and comfortable, and ready to make mistakes.
Evy, how do you find the courage to speak English?
Well, I am also afraid to make mistakes when I'm practicing English.
I feel embarrassed too.
But, my teachers and friends told me that, if you want to improve in a foreign language the most important thing is just to talk, talk, talk.
The more practicing you do the more improvement you will see.
Because, the final goal of learning a foreign language is listening and speaking, with no barrier in communication.
So just do it, don't be worried. No one will make fun of you.
So how do we learn a language?
We learn a language by reading books, and by listening to native speakers speak.
We need to pay close attention to the grammar and vocabulary of native speakers and books.
Speaking is like taking a test. You are using the information you learned by listening.
So, we should speak. But more importantly, we should listen carefully.
Potter, how do you like to learn English. How do you practice?
Hmm, according to my experience, creating a good environment and atmosphere is very important.
Ummm, I prefer learning English by reading and talking with
others.
When I was in there was a foreign teacher, who taught us once a week.
It is a good way to practice oral English.
After I left college, the most common connection between me and English is watching foreign movies or TV shows.
Sometimes I repeat the lines if I found them interesting.
But, the most difficult part of learning English is writing.
You need to pay attention to the vocabulary and the grammar.
Ok guys thanks a lot for the chat!
Next week, we will talk about something else.
If you have a suggestion, please let me know.
See you!
