How to learn English

Hi,

I would like to have your help to give me some ideas of how to learn good english (native spearker level).  

1) If my boy is not going to study in an IS, what other english course can he take? private native english speaking tutor?  expensive?

2) If he studies in an IS, he will have interviews in English, how can he learn that?

I and my husband are Chinese speakers, know English but not native, how do we train him? My husband does not want our bb to study in IS, coz worries that bb doesn't know Chinese well in the future.  What is the beginning step I should take?  

The expensive school fee is another concern, as we are going to have a 2nd baby.  

Any mama or papa share?

Re: How to learn English

If you want your child to learn Native English Speaking level, and you don't want to spend too much money, you can hire students studying in international school.  Make sure they study in IS since they are very young.  More exposure to English enviornment will be good and children will be more confident during interview.

School fee is cheaper if study in ESF schools but they are going to raise school fee in September.

Sending kids to IS not only can learn better English but also have better development in  children's thinking.

Hope this helps.

最重要的是你要給他創造一個英文的環境。

如將英文學習分成口語,閱讀和書寫三個不同方面,要達到native程度,對小朋友來說,口語最易,閱讀次之,書寫最難。

在小學前,小朋友未讀IS而口語和閱讀達到native程度, 並不是不可能。書寫最難,原因很多,最主要的是缺乏peer pressure和老師的系統指導。另外在應付中文學校的每日功課外,已無精力再學英文寫作。

除了平時盡量用英文交流外,有幾點對口語和閱讀有幫助:

1) 電腦,特別是一些教育軟件和網站;
2) 菲律賓工人;
3) 常和native speaker小朋友玩;
4) 電視;
5) 書。

有幾點對小朋友英文幫助不大:
1) 請人補習;
2) 讀British Council的英文課程。

小朋友在小學前的英文學會,不需要一本正經讀書。最重要是給他們一個環境,他們有充分的能力自己就會學到一口的native英文。

如果覺得電腦,電視會傷眼睛,菲律賓工人英文有口音,native speaker小朋友又找不到,那就難了。

Depends on where you live.  You can put ad on Dollarsavers or Towncryers.  Many expats read these magazines because they are free.

Re: How to learn English

I agree with 阿胡. Providing the kid with a pure Eng. environment is the most important. IMHO, this means you start speaking Eng. with your kid when she is a baby. Eng. all the time, wherever you are. This should make Eng. her first language. I don't think you need to have high Eng. proficiency to do this, say maybe until the kid's 5 or 6 years old.

She will learn to read & write Eng. in school. Hopefully, she can write like a native, with Eng. being her first language. Coz she'd think in Eng. and when she writes, she'll write something like what she says, which isn't Hong Kong style or Chinglish.

Just my 2 cents. :wink:

Hi, Ah Wu,

Why you said the Eng. Course at British Council is not good?  Do you have some bad experience?  Pls share.

Many thanks,

Try to talk to him in English for 30 minutes every day. Don't worry your English level.
