Tear off the reflection of word grammar books, that's how English should be learned.

Miss Yang used to be an English teacher in New Oriental, but now she has her own company. In her own way, she trained Lulu, the nanny at home, as an IELTS teacher and the chef of the company as a children's English teacher.

This record is ok. Then I'll read it.

In the book, Yang Ma shared two important things. First, English learning is a skill learning, which needs constant repetition. Second, memorizing word strings is many times better than memorizing simple words.

Yang Ma pointed out two main mistakes that China students often make when learning English. One is memorizing words, and the other is picking grammar.

In view of the above phenomenon, Yang Ma put forward the "four haves" learning method. Relevance, chord, affection, and companionship.

I'll say it one by one.

Relevance means that your English learning materials should be highly relevant to you. For example, if you are a chef, find some information about cooking and tasting. If you are a comic book lover, look for the names of comic characters, comic movie lines or English comic books. In short, the English materials you want to learn should be highly relevant to you, so as to stimulate your enthusiasm and persistence in learning.

There is a word string, which is an important word first mentioned by Yang Ma. The range of word strings is larger than phrases and smaller than sentences. It can be a phrase or a sentence. The criterion of judgment is that a word string can remind people of a specific scene. For example, a beautiful girl can remind people of a blonde. What's the matter? It reminds people that one person asks another about the progress of things. The advantage of memorizing word strings is that you can quickly master the usage of words without worrying about part of speech and polysemy. Moreover, word strings can be directly used in daily communication, instead of speaking English as we do now, thinking out Chinese first and then translating it into English. At the same time, we should consider whether the words are correct and the grammar is correct. These considerations are all good. What we are worried about is oral pronunciation. Finally, I became dumb English.

Feeling means that when reading English, you should read English with feeling like reading Chinese, so that you can master the connotation of the language and really learn English well.

English, like Chinese, is a skill learning. Skills are like learning to ride a bike. You need to keep practicing. Don't be afraid. You can master the balance after a few falls, and just ride twice more. At present, it is generally recognized that learning English means learning knowledge. Learn the grades of parts of speech, verbs, adjectives, etc. , to learn attributive clauses and adverbial clauses, to learn 16 tense, to learn language doctor English, to break the branches of English. The students were scared silly, and the teacher only shouted tired. If you regard English as a skill, you won't be like this. First find the material that is highly relevant to you, then decompose the quality into word strings, and then try your best to memorize the word strings. Finally, open your mouth and say it. English is so simple. You can recall how you learned Chinese. Did you learn the words one by one, or did you say the related words naturally in some cases?

Having a partner means finding an English study partner. As long as this partner can listen to you speak English. Never mind if he can understand or give you feedback. We have always lacked confidence in speaking English. So find someone who can't judge your English and be your listener. So as to cultivate self-confidence in speaking English.

Yang Ma has her own views on English reading teaching. She thinks that English reading is a very simple thing, in fact, it is to examine your knowledge and logical judgment. A credible example is given in the book. Daughter, began to learn English, and Yang Ma made her daughter understand a paragraph of Korean. Yes, my daughter didn't learn Korean, but with her mother's method and relying on her own knowledge and logical reasoning, her daughter actually understood the meaning of this Korean, and then changed it into a professional article on market economy. Her daughter circled the word "will" first. Then I used my knowledge to guess and reason, and even understood the meaning of the theme.

In fact, imagine that no matter what language, people who speak Bi Hua and Chinese have the same content, which is nothing more than eating and drinking Lazarus, society, economy and politics, international and so on. A normal social person, accumulating these materials every day, should not be difficult to reason.

Seeing this, my confidence in English learning has been greatly improved.

About grammar learning, Yang Ma's idea is reading first. Integrating grammar learning into English reading. Compared with Chinese learning, when we learn Chinese and master the most basic Chinese characters and pinyin, parents and teachers will throw us a children's book for us to read. I didn't teach you any verbs, rankings, ellipsis, questions at all. It's all what we understand in reading. So the main carrier of English learning is reading all kinds of articles. Yang Ma read it step by step. The first is all kinds of English jokes, the second is "stabbing" short reading, and the third is reading English original novels.

Regarding the study of oral English, Yang Ma pointed out that she should put down her face, open her eyes to see the whitest, and speak out boldly. Beautiful content is more important than beautiful accent. This is consistent with Mr. Zhu Wei of Hualin.

I found out from Baidu that Yang Ma also has a method of memorizing words, that is, when she sees a new word, she first guesses it in the article, then looks up the translation, uses the derivation of the word to understand the meaning of the word, and then memorizes it in the word string. However, this book does not design this content, which may be found in Yang Ma's 12 video.

The above is what I summed up after reading this book. This is the first time about "word string", and I also think that the effect of this word string is better than simple words. The method of reading comprehension has actually been used in English learning, but it has not been summarized theoretically. In a word, this book is recommended to everyone. I always think that books that can arouse people's enthusiasm for learning English are qualified books.
