How do college students learn English?

It is necessary for college students to learn English. In my opinion, English is still very simple, because English is a subject where everything comes to him who waits. Learning any language is nothing more than listening, speaking, reading and writing, and English learning is no exception.

English learning can be divided into the following stages:

Reciting words stage:

First of all, in English learning, words are the most basic, just like when we were young, we had to learn Chinese characters before we could further learn word idioms, and finally we could learn sentences, and then we learned slowly and deeply. Many people don't like English. Reading English, like a gobbledygook, is also caused by not knowing words.

Some students feel that they have a bad memory, words are difficult to recite, and they don't like to recite words. I can share my experience here. Memorizing words does not depend on the quality of memory, but can be remembered in a short time. The point is to repeat and review more. If you really have a bad memory, you will spend more time to repeat and review, but in fact, as long as one hour a day, studying for several years is also a long time.

The way I remember words:

I will prepare a word book first. I always think that memorizing words on paper is king. Now word books will divide the daily plan into lists. You can prepare a pen to take notes in the book, so that your eyes and hands can be integrated and your memory can be deepened.

Then I will look up every word and pronunciation with my mobile phone, go over it and write down the expanded words and some key phrases.

Finally, I will prepare a piece of paper and write the words on it. In the process of remembering words, I also need to remember the meaning of words quickly.

Then I combine pieces of paper with a word book, read one word at a time, recite it carefully and draw difficult words.

Finally, I will read Chinese spelling words and recite them.

Then prepare a4 paper, which can be reviewed regularly according to the popular Ebbinghaus curve memory on the Internet to deepen the memory.

Generally, a word book has more than 30 lists. You can recite one every day, and it will be finished soon. After personal experience and recitation, the English level will reach a qualitative leap. The main thing is to stick to it, because there will be more and more review tasks piled up every day.

Grammar learning stage:

Grammar learning requires us to read more English articles at ordinary times, so we can naturally cultivate a sense of language in reading.

If the English foundation is not good, it is suggested to buy some grammar books to study or go online to find some up owners. Here I can recommend Angke English Jun, who speaks very popular and easy to understand.

Listening learning stage:

As a candidate in Henan province, I didn't take the listening test in the college entrance examination, so listening was a nightmare for me from the beginning. I just studied reading and vocabulary before, and regarded English as dumb English. While listening, some words I read are the strangers I am most familiar with.

Then I learned some other people's listening methods (but don't blindly refer to others and choose the one that suits you best). The following is a brief analysis of listening learning ~

1. Don't be afraid of difficulties. Many students feel nervous when listening to English, but actually listening doesn't require us to understand every word, as long as we can roughly understand the meaning of the sentence. Then follow his reading progress to understand the corresponding sentence meaning, and don't be too entangled. These are all achieved through a lot of practice.

Now the Internet is very popular, and there are many resources for us to learn. Here I recommend Rachel English, a very interesting and amiable teacher. She can not only learn weak reading, assimilation, ellipsis and linking of English words, but also learn some foreign language thinking.

3. Some recommended materials: Ted talk, VOA Special English, etc. But although these are all good English learning materials, they are very difficult. It is recommended to download Daily English Listening, which contains many materials to choose from. You can also watch some American dramas and study while entertaining. Recommend Game of Thrones, Friends, Modern Family and Naked Bear Bar. ......

4. Method of listening to the material: Personally, we should first understand the new words in the material and read the article. Then try to practice blind listening, write on paper silently, listen repeatedly when you don't understand, and then you can hear it from beginning to end when you are proficient.

Finally:

Of course, you can't put it off when the English learning stage is over. In fact, every stage needs to be practiced day after day, just like reciting words every day.

I hope everyone can understand that there is no shortcut to English learning, mainly in daily persistence.
