When we were at school, the method of learning English was totally rote learning. We simply recited the words, sentence patterns and grammar used in the exam, which I really can't remember. We use hanyu pinyin instead. For example, at school, some students labeled it "dead dog"; Potatoes are labeled as "Tucao Wharf", which makes me feel funny now. In fact, the pronunciation of such a labeling method is definitely inaccurate, so the teacher dare not answer the questions loudly when asking questions. When I graduated, the knowledge I learned disappeared. I have studied English for several years, but I dare not speak or understand it, and I have become dumb English.
Daughter 1 year-old began to speak. By the time she was 3 years old, I had fixed time for her to listen to English children's songs every day, but I never forced her to sit there and listen honestly while playing. Let her watch the original English cartoons every night. I think all children are crazy about cartoons, which will arouse her interest in watching cartoons.
When she was four years old, I signed her up for Hellokid's online English course. The purpose of the class is to cultivate her interest and give her a chance to speak English. After dinner every night, I study English online with foreign teachers in Europe and America at 7: 30 on time. I have been studying English with my daughter for 25 minutes. Foreign teachers provide an immersive English environment, which can communicate with children completely in English, cultivate children's interest in learning English to the greatest extent and improve their ability to speak English.
In fact, if parents want to cultivate their children's interest in learning English, they need to provide an English-style environment for their children to communicate in English. For example, say hello to your child in English every day, have some simple conversations, or take your child out for a walk every night to let her know some foreign friends and say hello simply.
After her daughter officially became a student, learning English is very familiar to her, because her previous one-year English study in Hellokid Online Children's English was very successful, and soon her performance in the class was very outstanding, which was reused by teachers. Hehe, son, the more praise you encourage, the harder you study. Since the third grade, I have been trying to train her to participate in various English competitions. These are all things that she volunteered to participate in. I took her to the meeting with her permission. I have never forced her to take the ranking, but I just want to train her to speak boldly in front of everyone.
If some parents have good English, they can have a simple conversation with their children in English in daily life. For example, wake up early, eat, etc., communicate with children in English in daily activities, and interact with children in English when playing, which not only exercises their oral English, but also strengthens their listening. Hehe, the premise is that parents should pronounce correctly.
Interest is the best teacher, so how to cultivate children's interest in learning English? The work of cultivating interest needs the correct guidance of parents. Grasp the characteristics and psychology of children, don't miss the best enlightenment period, and guide them in time. For learning, with interest, get twice the result with half the effort.
