The Best Way to Master a New Skill? Try This Creative Approach.

• Sarah Stein Greenberg

Use this tool to discover your strengths and identify challenge areas.

Becoming skilled at tackling anything means going on a journey of highs and lows. Both extremes provide important feedback that lets you know where you are in the learning process. Most of us know how to interpret the high of a big new idea, but fewer of us have the tools to make sense of the harder moments, when we’re struggling to understand a concept. We forget that discomfort is an essential part of discovery. In those moments, how do you get “unstuck” and navigate your way forward?

• The Learning Journey Map is one tool you can use to chart your learning experience over time and identify the moments when you soared effortlessly and when you ran into challenges.
• It helps you take something that’s usually internal and invisible — your own learning — and bring it outside yourself, where you can examine it more objectively, discover your strengths, and identify and work through your challenge areas.
• The next time you’re struggling with a learning opportunity, use the worksheet in this article to give it a try.

English and me: My language learning journey

As far as my memory goes, the earliest scenario I can remember of English and me is a 4-year-old kindergarten girl learning the alphabet by heart--she rote-memorized the order of the letters by rehearsing aloud the letters in the alphabetic order again and again. Growing up in a very poor family in the 1970s of Hong Kong, she and her three elder brothers and one elder sister didn't have any toys. The first toy she got was a small red model car that her father gave her when she came first in her school exam.

Listening and reading have often been subordinated by speaking and writing due o the general belief that they are secondary language skills without being ends in themselves but 'means to other ends' (Nunan, in Richards & Renandya, 2002:238). Such an approach to language proficiency consequently implies the idea of second/foreign language knowledge primarily related to the ability of producing language (receptive vs. productive language skills). This sharp division by reference to the activity of the language user - passive vs. active (Widdowson, 1978) - was seriously questioned in the 1980s with the emphasis on comprehensible input seen as 'the essential ingredient for second language acquisition' (Krashen, 1985:4). This was the time when SLA researchers started paying attention to listening in particular because they considered listening crucial for providing the learner with input in the language classroom. In other words, his/her failure in understanding input mak...

English has become the international language of education and business. More people around the world than ever before are learning English. The mission of all the teachers of English is to promote learning of English and in turn support professional development of people worldwide. The second language teachers help learners of all age in pursuing their dreams of higher education or getting a good job in English-speaking environments worldwide. In many countries, English is a second language and preparing the learners for a successful mastery of it is not a simple process. It is well known that a new second language is fostered well by providing opportunities to learn it at an early age along with emphasizing the development of one’s native language. So, more and more countries are introducing English-language instruction earlier in school. But irrespective of when a child instigates learning English, the paramount approach is to give it a pleasant learning with well-crafted engaging materials, proficient teachers and an opportunity to cultivate everyday conversational ability applying the four skills — listening, speaking, reading and writing.

This grammatical series will help you to automatize the foundation of the English language, which is the grammar of the English verb: tenses, verbals, auxiliaries, time markers, tense axis, temporal structures, finite and non-finite structures, regular and irregular verbs, verb forms, auxiliary drills, modal auxiliaries, verb patterns, syntactic drills, special constructions, phrasal verbs, verbal idioms. The Anchor of English, Book 2 contains the following chapters: Sing: Forms, Conjugation, Structures – Affirmative, Negative, Interrogative Play: Forms, Conjugation, Structures – Affirmative, Negative, Interrogative Read: Forms, Conjugation, Structures Bake: Forms, Conjugation, Structures Teach: Forms, Passive Conjugation and Structures Instruct: Forms, Passive Conjugation and Structures Passive Auxiliary Structures Grammatical Pictures If you choose to practice all of these structures orally, then in writing, you will be able to use them naturally, and everything you have learned so far will reorganize in your mind, whether or not you are a subordinate bilingual. A famous Latin proverb says, “Repetitio est mater studiorum,” which is so true: Repetition is indeed the mother of learning. Therefore, whatever we consciously choose to repeat aloud several times will go directly into our subconscious mind, thus becoming an automatic process. This is how we can learn almost anything, from the multiplication table to playing the piano. Even when we learn to ride a bike, we have to look at the pedals before feeling comfortable enough to admire our surroundings while cycling. The same is the case with learning English, especially when you live in a non-English-speaking environment. Unless you practice the English words, phrases, structures, or sentences orally many times, you will not be able to use them fluently in your own spoken and written contexts. Learning is not solely an intellectual process. Silent learning and recognizing English information are both passive processes. If you choose consciously to learn as children do, your subconscious mind will do the rest. Just repeat orally any piece of English information you read, study, watch, or listen to; hear yourself say it several times, until you feel comfortable with using it in your own speech. And don’t forget to have fun while practicing, because learning English is indeed fun, regardless of age. May your English help you stay whole! https://www.holistic-english.com/paperbacks

Of all mankind's inventions, none was more consequential than the birth of language and our brain's language center is built through experiences early in life. Of all mankind's inventions, none was more consequential than the birth of language. Before its creation, each person's knowledge was limited to what he or she experienced directly. Afterward, someone who learned something could share it with anybody else. In this video, we'll look at four things known about language learning in general and then listen to the story of lucky Lucy and poor Pete to understand the importance of language in everyday life.

It is acknowledged that children acquire their first language (L1) with seemingly little trouble, and in some cases with astonishing speed and quality. Many theories have been suggested by different scholars on how they obtain their L1 (e g. Hyams, 2012; Brown, 2007; Lust, 2006). Many researchers have studied characteristics of an adult’s success in acquiring their second or foreign language with the same speed and quality as children. Some successes of how adults acquire and learn an additional language are shown in early research conducted by Gardner and Lambert (1972), Stern (1975) and Rubin (1975), while more recent studies by Griffiths (2008), Ortega, (2013) and Ellis, (2015) have explored this in more depth. In this report, the authors investigated all aspects of communicative competence, based on the proposed model revision of Celce-Murcia (2008), including linguistic, discourse, strategic, social cultural, formulaic, and interactional competence. This report is comprised of two parts, each of which discusses the following: the first part describes the background of this report, the participant’s cultural and language learning background, and the rationale for conducting this case study. The second part presents an investigation of the sample learner data and a discussion and analysis of the learner’s strengths and weaknesses based on samples of spoken and written data. Lastly, the authors present future recommendations by devising short- and medium-term outcomes and outlining a programme of study.

Abstract: Language development is characterized by predictable shifts in the words that children learn andthe complexity of their utterances. But language development typically occurs simultaneouslywith cognitive development and maturation, making it difficult to determine the causes of theseshifts. We explored how acquisition precedes in the absence of possible cognitive ormaturational roadblocks, by examining the acquisition of English in internationally-adoptedpreschoolers. Like infants these...
