Hi. I'm Minghua from China. I'm learning English and I feel so frustrated. There are just so many new words to remember and English grammar rules are really confusing. I become very nervous when I speak English, too. What should I do?
你好,我是明華,我來自中國。我正在學習英語,我感覺很沮喪。需要記憶的新英語單詞很多,語法規則也讓我很困惑。當我說英語的時候也很緊張,我該怎么辦呢?
Hi Minghua,
明華,你好。
Don't be frustrated. Learning a new language is not easy. I can share some of my learning tips with you.
不用沮喪,學習一種新的語言是不容易的。我可以給你分享一些我學習英語的小技巧。
For vocabulary, I think it's useful to make word lists for different topics. For example, you can make lists for fruit, vegetables and animals. Then you can review them whenever you have time. The more you review, the more easily you'll remember! And when you want to speak or write on a certain topic, you can refer to those lists.
對于詞匯,對不同的主題要列單詞列表,我覺得這樣很有用。例如,你可以把水果、蔬菜和動物的單詞分別做個列表,然后當你有時間的時候就復習一下。你復習的越多,記憶起來就越容易。當你需要談論某個主題或對某個主題寫作時就可以參考這些列表了。
As for grammar rules, I've used pictures and tables to help me, for example with verb tenses. I've also tried to put difficult structures into songs, but I think the best way to remember grammar rules is to use them. These methods work well for me. You can have a try.
至于語法規則,我試過用圖片和表格來幫助記憶。以動詞時態為例,我之前試著把難的句子結構放到歌曲中。但是我認為記憶語法規則最好的方法是運用這些規則。這些方法對我很有效。你可以試一試。
In the past, I was also very nervous when I spoke English in class because I was afraid of making mistakes. Then, I tried to talk to myself. Whenever I was alone, I just talked to myself in English. It worked. Now I no longer feel nervous when I speak English in class!
以前,我在課堂上說英語的時候也會緊張,因為我害怕犯錯。后來,我試著和我自己說。每當我一個人的時候,我就自己和自己用英語對話,這種方法很有效。現在,我在課堂上說英語的時候就不會緊張了。
I hope these tips are helpful for you. I am sure you will feel less frustrated soon.
我希望這些建議對你有幫助。我相信你很快就不會那么沮喪了。
Good luck!
祝你好運!
