What is blocker on the road of learning English?
We need to find it and remove it then the result is only one.that is conquering it.
Many times we are complaining the reason why we can not speak English well:
We did not start as early as we could.
We did not meet a good English teachersince middle school as soon as we started to learn it.
We did not meet a good classmate or our parents did not tell us the importance of English when we started to learn it and so on.
But complaining and finding the all sorts of the reasons are useless. What we can do now is starting to learn immediately.
But many people always want to find a supper good teacher even native speaker before they decided to learn it or decided to take any class. However, I find a teacher who has mastered English as a second language may be a more effective teacher than a native speaker. A teacher who has experience learning English may be able to explain difficult aspects of the language to a language learner. Such a teacher may be able to anticipate learning problems and potentially confusing language elements better than someone who grew up speaking English as his mother tongue.
and even extremely I find the people study English easily could not be a good teacher because they can not understand the difficulty during your learning. So I find yourself isthe best teacherto you.
My wife is an example. She acquired the language when she was young.
So she can speak well. But She can not fully understand why we can not pronounce well. Why we like to use the rather long profound word to describe the simple things. I did not get as much as I expected even through she always try to tell me why is why.
I believe what we lack on learning English is deeply learning.
We did not learn the fundament things well.
The profound word is easy to use although hard to remember.
The long work alwasy has a conspondingChinese word usually So it is easier to rember to use it for Chinese but the easy word is opposite.
The easyword has too many meanings. The easier the words are the harder to use.So we need to focus on the easy word basic things. So does the grammar.
So let us go over the basic things and lay a good foundation.
