Although I have passed CET-6 and got a perfect score when I first started learning English in my first year of junior high school, I still feel the pain of English learning very deeply.
After work, we couldn't use English for decades, and we didn't plan to go abroad for our children, so we didn't pay attention to our children's English enlightenment.
When the child was 8 years old and ready to go to the second and third levels, he began to contact English, but found that the 8-year-old child had been defined as an "irretrievable child" by the English education and training market.
Just because of the late start, because of the missed age of the so-called language learning, children in primary school are ready to learn English, and they are despised by English education and training institutions.
It feels like an adult who is interested in musical instruments, didn't learn it when he was a child, and when he grows up, he can only accept the fate of being ridiculed and practicing hard and having no future.
Of course, if you are blindly led by the nose by the education and training institutions, then your children will always be labeled as "poor" before they pay the fee to register for classes.
Otherwise, why do most of the country start learning English in the third grade of primary school?Are all teachers in education and training institutions better than textbook writers and educational decision-makers?
First, when they are young, the children are still learning pinyin, and if they are mixed with English to learn, there is really a large number of children who confuse the two, resulting in pinyin and English are not good at learning.
Second, the subject tasks of primary school are aggravated, and learning English at the beginning will inevitably lead to a heavy burden of coursework. Even in some areas, English classes are offered in the first grade, and the number of hours per week is very small, and this is the starting point.
One is to keep up with the school.
For the English classes offered by the school, the teacher requires me to memorize words, read sentences, memorize texts, etc., of course, and do them one by one.
Learning English at the beginning is the same as learning Chinese as a language subject, and basic words and sentences need to be acquired through repeated practice and memorization.
Some basic grammar will also be taught in school, such as the singular and plural of names, the usage of am, is, are, etc., which are the basis for learning English.
Second, we must pull out colleges and universities.
If you have the motivation to learn, it is easy to slack off just by following the school. Because the difficulty of English in the lower grades is relatively low, the test is easier than the textbook, and the child can guess correctly.
Therefore, it is necessary to work hard outside of class. For example, listening to and reading English picture books, watching English cartoons, and memorizing English words in higher grades are all desirable practices.
