學英文的祕訣

很多學生都問我有沒有短期能學好英文的方法,(一般學生希望的就是口語進步)
我的回答是:有方法可以在短期內進步,但是要把時間空出來給”英文”而不是中文,
這裡是一些方法跟大家分享

1. 沈浸在英文環境中:看洋片,影片,聽ICRT,一面看,一面學習句子的講法.
2. 專心傾聽:注意聽老師或是老外講話的音調,發音的方法及語調,聽老外講話時,專心聽它的結尾音怎麼發,然後去模仿
3. 模仿:模仿老外的發音音調,除了專心傾聽外,更要模仿老外的音調.英文跟中文不一樣的地方就是口腔的發音部位不同,透過模仿可以漸漸習慣舌頭放的位置,及敢於將不同的腔調發出來.

4. 監控:將自己的發音錄下來,然後問自己是不是將這個字的發音講對,將自己的發音與外國發音比較,是不是有改進的空間?

5. 校正:問老師是否自己發音正確,或者找一位老外老師,問他這個字怎麼唸.將自己的發音腔調以此方法漸漸的改正到正確的腔調

其實我在美國時,也是透過這樣的方法學習的,老外的腔調是與中文很不同的,我們要像唱歌一樣把英文句子的do ra mi音發出來,剛學時,不要找太難的教材,那樣會造成挫折感;我鼓勵學生不要給自己太大壓力,像是強迫自己短期內進步這樣太高的期望,其實很容易造成因為達不到而完全放棄.那麼以前學的就前功盡棄了.
只要每天給自己一小時的時間學英文,不要間斷,一年下來,一定有所進步的.
