So what can we do to make children remember English words firmly? Here, Bian Xiao takes animal names in children's English teaching videos as an example to tell how to inspire children's English.
1. Listening and Speaking Method
Listening and speaking methods include imitation, follow-up, error correction and correction. Listening and speaking method is beneficial to cultivate children's language and spoken language. In the teaching of English words, many training institutions will use this method to let children pass? Listen to the foreign teacher, read after the foreign teacher, and read aloud? Learn how to pronounce animal names in a new way.
Like training institutions, this online English training institution for children allows children to teach authentic spoken English in pure foreign languages in Britain, the United States and Canada. And in the classroom of training institutions, foreign teachers should pay attention to strengthening the use of basic language in the classroom, training children's listening, and achieving the purpose of flexible use in daily life.

2. Audio-visual methods
In children's English teaching, audio-visual method is helpful to cultivate children's interest in learning and promote children's active participation and interaction, which is a useful supplement to classroom teaching. The method of audio-visual combination is far more than simply relying on hearing or vision to understand, remember and store language materials. Visual image provides conditions for children to think in images and promotes children to master English naturally and firmly.
In the interesting class of training institutions, the teaching of animal names is like this. If you talk about it? Lions? The English word (lion) will be added to the courseware together with the relevant fragments of the animated film "The Lion King". Lions? This word is specific. Let the children associate specific things with English words to remember.
Perhaps parents think that the teaching of animal names in children's English teaching videos can also achieve the above two points, but the most important thing in English learning is to learn in a pure English environment, so that children don't have to immerse themselves in English environment? Study? But nature? Acquisition? . Especially in early childhood, natural acquisition? The effect is far better than? Study? All right.
In addition, the teaching of animal names in children's English teaching videos cannot give children an interactive environment. There is no interaction, children just imitate and read, and don't know how to use it. If it can't be used, in the end, children will still forget the words of animal names.
Actually, learning animal names is very simple. Parents can take their children to the zoo and tell them what animals are in English when they visit. After the field experience, the child's memory is more profound.
