babies and small children are best English learners

 babies and small children are the best English learners in the world!

they easy learn to speak as a native speaker with excellent grammar and vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation. instead of studying text books, perhaps we should look at babies and how they learn English.

when a baby start to learn English over any language it mostly just listens. in fact, for many months the baby or child will only listen without any real speaking. this period of listening is called the silent period of linguists.

during the silent period , the babies learning to understand the language. of course, when a baby silently learning the parents do not get worried. they don't teach the baby grammar. they don't get angry if the baby doesn't speak. the baby will use more words. its grammar will improve even though it never studies grammar rules! the babies pronunciation will improve. and yet,for many years was listening will still be better than its speaking. the baby will understand more than it can say.

this is the natural way of learning English. as you can see, it is very different than the way you learn in school. perhaps you were forced to speak very soon, even though you are not ready. you focus on studying grammar rules. when you made a mistake,the teacher corrected you.

unlike the baby , you did not improve quickly. you didn't improve your grammar naturally and effortlessly. your pronunciation never seemed to get much better. and you are speaking always seemed too. For you, English probably was not a joyful experience. English was not a playful and natural experience that you loved.

the truth is, your brain is an incredible language-learning machine. When you have a strong psychology and an effective method, you learn English quickly. even better, when you follow a natural approach , you enjoy the process of learning because you are no longer fighting against nature and your own brain.

I should warn you that this method is completely different from the hidden curriculum you have used in the past. remember, doesn't depend on traditional methods. instead it is designed to follow the natural order of language learning seen with small children. on the road to English fluency, you need to two things: powerful fuel and a powerful car: strong psychology and the great method. you now know how to create the premium fuel you need. the specific English learning methods you must use in order to speak English powerfully. it is time to learn the English.

easy and fast way to speak English 

1. learn with your ears not with your eyes

that's right if you want to speak excellent English you have to listen.listening listening and more listening is the key to speaking excellent English. if you listen a lot, you are going to learn vocabulary. you will learn grammar.you will get faster at speaking and you will understand what people are saying to you.you will do all of this in a more natural and enjoyable manner. you will imitate the process that babies and small children use to learn a language.

2. I can understand written English perfectly

I hear this a lot from students who don't understand why they have great comprehension of written English but can't speak it well.one reason is because English conversation is quite different from English reading . conversation uses a different type of English, including different vocabulary.

3. learn English conversation

this is why listening is so important . listening provides the foundation for speaking. as your listening ability improves, it will pull your speaking ability up too. too many learners are focused solely on speaking and they neglect listening. however, what use is speaking if you can't understand other person?

another reason listening is important is because the dynamics of spoken english are completely different from those of the written language. 

and most importantly, the speed is different. speech is fast. superfast. so fast that you have no time to think about translations or grammar rules, or text book lessons or pronunciation.

4. listening practice

to help students improve their listening, I often suggest an exercise known as the movie technique.to to this, you need to pick an English language movie that you enjoy.again, pic a fairly easy one where you will understand most of the words used. begin by watching the first scene. they should take about 3 to 5 minutes. turn on the English subtitles. as you go through it, pause if there is a something you don't understand. look up the meaning of the word of phrase in an idiomatic dictionary. watch the scene until you know all the words of it and understand.

the next day, watched the same scene again several times. once you understand the vocabulary , turn off the subtitles. then watch the scene again, listening without a subtitles. do this everyday for the next five days or so.

5. deep learning practice

pic and audio that's 10 minutes long. this is going to be your main audio for the week. listen to it a few times repeat this process every day for the next week. really commit yourself to mastering it will stop the idea is you are not trying to memorize it but rather to thoroughly know it. imagine that it's time to listen to and understand the audio, it is going deeper into your brain. it's like a seed you are planting in your mind. plant it deep and water it with many repeated listening.
