last week i went to peking university and tsinghua university where i was invited to deliver lectures on “learning english with passion”. i found out that all those students have something in common; they all have determinations to learn english well . that's thevery reason why i gave lectures at more than ten most prestigious universities with an attempt to help students who want to conquer english within the shortest time.
that’s true, having a good command of english is vitally significant and profound. here i would like to give all my friends and students some advice for the future learning in terms of the experience i got from being a teacher for many language training schools and being interpreter for government as well as embassies. being an interpreter is by no means easy, which needs to have a good command of listening, understanding or decoding and speaking. as soon as i hear the original voice from the speaker, meanwhile, i will decode or understand it by dividing the content of the voice into different segments, and use my short-term memory and if possible ,note-taking, to deliver the interpretation in the process of consecutive or simultaneous cases. now , i would like to tell you how to speak good english.
3-d methods (dialogue, discussion and debate) to improve your eloquence
dialogue
having authentic and polished oral english is every learner’s dream, however, many of my students who spent a lot of years, money and efforts to speak this language well but failed to be able to communicate and speak out, the reason to which might be mainly confidence and methods. i notice that many students do well in speaking when conducting a prepared speech or presentation in class. but speaking english fluently is not just about making presentations and giving speeches. it is about expressing your ideas and insight on the most mundane of things around you. i still remember when i first landed on the soil of beijing 5 years ago; i could not communicate with my friends and even felt uneasy when going out with them because i did not have the confidence to start a conversation with my mandarin. it’s the same to the english learners who have no courage to start a topic and face an awkward silence after the initial greeting was given because they don't know what to talk about and are not confident of putting something across correctly, thus the conversation comes to end.
the ability to make dialogues is very important in social communication. topics for casual conversation could include the weather, education, music, current affairs; hobbies, travel, etc. do not always ask foreigner “what is your name and how is your job” when you want to find one to practice your english with. before going to english corner, please read up on your area of interest and try framing sentences expressing your opinions. talk about it with someone close to you or someone’s english level is higher than yours, so you can check for your language accuracy and fluency.you’d better to grasp regularly used ways of small talk, and you will be able to initiate speaking more confidently. if you can break this barrier and speak out with passion and confidence, you can take your first step into the realm of english speaking and become a public speaker in the future.
discussion and debate
i always enlighten my students that your language ability and academic achievements are very imperative and important, but the most important of all, it’s your eloquence to communicate in the personal relationships. elite may not have eloquence, but an eloquent person must be an elite. so the best way to drill your speaking abilities is to discuss and debate. when i was a junior, i always raised discussions with my classmate in my dorm, questions like “environmental protection, cohabitation, 20xx olympics, postgraduate exams and so on. after everyone aired his opinions, then we conducted debate to argue, to express ideas to convince the other. and i gradually build up on my own repertoire of conversational topics and start using them whenever i get a chance; subsequently i have good command of english, and won a lot of awards in english speech contest and debate. hence, it’s also effective for you, my beloved friends or students, to have a try to use your language to discuss and debate.
other methods
many students do want to improve their english by all means. it’s self-evident that all of us like taking down notes when we are listening to the lectures given by teachers at school. but it’s not a correct way to speak good language. can you learn swimming by standing at the edge of the pool and taking down the words spoken by the coach? you have to take the plunge, right? i seldom took notes when i was given lessons, but i would memorize them with my mouth, my mind and my ears. there is just one case i will take notes when i am doing my job as an interpreter for the beijing municipal government and embassy. i still remember when i was interpreting for the ambassador from the philippines, at which moment she was delivering the speech about 10 minutes at the great wall international conference. hadn’t i taken the notice from the speaker, i don’t think i would have interpreted for her and won the applause from the officials. it is the same with language. unless you use the language everyday, you will never know how good you are at it. ask your friends who are good at english to help. try to speak it as much as possible, and let them interrupt you whenever you make mistakes and ask them to correct you. do not feel embarrassed to make mistakes, for that is the only way you will learn. enjoy losing face and enjoy making mistakes because that is the way how the process of acquiring fluency a language occurs. everyone may have made a lot of mistakes before getting a good grasp of mother tongue. the only difference now is that you are conscious of the mistakes. so ,do not be afraid of making mistakes.
attitude that counts the most
if you do want to learn something well, you are supposed to have confidence and passion. i love playing piano , basketball and learning as well as being a teacher, to which i devote my whole interest , confidence and passion no matter how many mistakes i will encounter, how helpless , how hopeless and how far away for me to reach my final goal. i will never stop fighting for the betterment and improvement of myself and to be an all-grounded person equipped with knowledge and clear mindset. and that is why i hope all of you can be confident and passionate for what you have done and what you will be doing.
finally, i want to say to my students and english lovers. try to be confident and passionate in the journey of study and life, all you need is a will to learn and the initiative to begin.
各位家长，同学们大家好，很高兴站在这里与大家分享我关于英语学习的心得体会，当我站在这个讲台，此时此刻，看到大家，我仿佛看到了那个时候的我，看着那么多的英语单词，看着陌生的英文，可痛苦了，可是我走过了这一段路程。首先我要告诉你，今天你的选择是正确的，接下来你将度过快乐开心的70分钟。
你是不是曾经为了很低的分数而伤心?是不是曾经暗下决心说一定要好好学习英语?如果你的答案是肯定，那么好，祝贺你你已经迈出了第一步!
大家都知道，我们从上初中起就开始接触英语，被英语考试围着;今天能够坐在这里的大家肯定都是爸妈的好孩子，因为你来了，爸妈从小养育我们不容易啊，有没有这样的想法，何时能把英语学好，为了给父母争点光荣?
大家有没有想过我们为什么要来上学?为了生活，就是为了将来更好的生活，据一组数据显示，精通外语者的平均薪水要高于英语一般者25%--60%，同学们，看到了这些难道你不想好好学习它吗?答案是肯定的!
可是，你会问，老师怎么学好英语呢?我该如何培养自己的兴趣呢?答案我来告诉你。
的确啊，提到这个问题，我也能理解大家的心情，看着那么多的单词，一篇篇陌生的文章，的确是很难，难道我们真的被它难住吗?依然记得我当时上初一的时候，第一次考试期中考试及格了，那是第一次期末考试居然排名班级前三名，当时可高兴了。后来我哥，在上初二之前给我买了本课本辅导书，我也知道这是哥哥对我的期待，我好想痴迷了似的，我连续看了好几遍，每一个角落都不落下，现在想来真的要感谢我哥哥。
说到这儿，我要强调的是，要培养自己的学习兴趣，英语学习对于我来说是一个非常有意思的事情，看到英文就有一种亲切感，真的。其实呢，我们会抱怨，说没有学习环境，没有好老师，其实不然，英语学习关键在于自己。大家不知道注意到了没有，现在生活中到处充满了英文，去商场购物，许多物品上都标有英文;路边的电杆上也会有英文;难道这不是英语环境吗?大家要做一个有心人，随时做好学习英语的准备。而这个习惯我也一直能保持到现在，对我很有作用。
我也很奇怪，这么多年的`学习，我始终能够保持对英语的热情。现在想来，的确，英语学习好了，能够能给我带来信心与很多好处。每次你英语考试考得高，英语演讲赛，全国英语竞赛，同学们会羡慕，不知道大家有没有这样的感受?
现在大家都才初中，还有几年参加高考，或者中考，英语考试的重要性不言而喻。现在我分别从听说读写几个方面来给大家阐述如何学好英语。听的方面，听就是要学习人家的如何表达，理解他人的意思，如何发音。我们知道现在中考，高考都逐渐加上了英语听力，而听力也占了一定的分数。大家现在都有电视，甚至电脑，是吧?
很好，这是重要的资源，如果有时间的话，建议大家可以去花上一段时间去听听，即使听不懂。你要相信时间的力量，时间积累够了，你一定会取得进步。我记得我上英语课的时候，每一次老师教我们单词，我总会认认真真的看着老师的嘴巴，看她如何发音，可好奇了，有的时候并不会，就在课本上注释，有谁也这样干?嘿嘿，现在我给大家一个建议把音标学会，自己就会发音了。
说完了听的方面，再来谈谈说的方面。依然记得第一次见外教，看着别人与外教交流，可羡慕了，自己什么都不会。现在我就可以与外教交流了，这也是时间的过程。当然你会说，老师我们现在考试不考英语口语，那怎么办?对，这就是我在说这一部分要给大家强调的经常读课文，把课本上的文章反复阅读，能够达到如痴如醉的地步。提到这儿，我不得不再提一下我初中的时候，那时候有早自习，每天早上我都会和同学一起把课本上的对话反复交换角色来朗读，这也是说的一方面。后来只要是课本上的东西我都很能清晰地记住在脑海中。又一次老师讲到了一句话，问大家在哪儿见过这句话，我就给说出在哪一个单元，那一课，呵呵，当时大家可惊奇了。
现在来谈谈读的方面，一提起读，我要问大家一个问题，大家多长时间阅读一篇文章?
阅读呢，这是一个长期的过程，大家知道，罗马不是一天建成的，北京不是两个月建成。
刚才同学说自己没有阅读，那么同学们，从今天起，你要记住要大量阅读。同学们会问了，老师我没用时间，嗯，同学们，记住，不要给自己的懒惰找借口。有位名人曾经说过：“时间就像海绵里的水，只要你愿意去挤，总会是有的”。同学们，并非要求你每一天去花上几个小时阅读，而是你要在每一天抽上十几分钟，几十分钟，可以是一片文字，也可以是几句话，总之，你必须坚持!明白吗?我就是这样坚持下来的，所以现在对于一般文章都能轻松理解。同学们，只要你能坚持坚持，我相信，到你中考或者高考的时候，英语阅读水平一定会有大的长进。而这里面的“坚持”二字也是我要强调的学习习惯。
提到写作，我先问一下同学，那位同学平时写英语作文呢?我想跟刚才的情况是一样吧?中考，高考中英语写作都是占有重要分数的题目，难道我们就让他难倒吗?答案当然不是!那怎么办呢?一个字：练!怎么练呢?大家注意了，这个时候必须要回到课本上的话题，刚才我在读的方面已经提到，要把课本中的内容烂熟于心，恭喜你了，只要你能做到这一点，你的水平已经不差了。为什么要提到课本呢?这时因为课本是重要的写作素材。另外，在日常的生活中，一定要做个有心人，随时留意一些有用的句子，把它记下来，背住它，成为你自己的东西。
英语学习，这是一个长期的过程，它包括了许多方面，单词，课文，语法，句子，很多很多。就如盖房子一样，一点点累积起来的。但是大家一定要养成良好的学习习惯。如何在这些方面取得进步，才能在英语学习中取得进步。
说了这么些，我的内心深处，已经燃起浓厚的英语热情。在以后的教学过程中，我会不断的给大家穿插进去这些理念，让大家有一定收获。大家要记住，任何事情不是轻易能够的到的，他需要长期的努力，要经过专业的培训，给予及时纠正和指导。
最后，要给大家说英语学习一定要培养良好的学习习惯，不懂就问，善于查字典，等等。
在最后，同学们，为了能够取得好成绩，培养兴趣，不让爸妈失望，难道你不想好好学习它吗?
兴趣+方法+努力=成功!
最后祝愿大家都能取得收获，度过快乐的暑假!谢谢大家!
很荣幸今天能站在这里跟大家交流一下英语学习经验。直接进入正题吧。现在既然大家坐在这里，说明大家还是对大学阶段的英语学习有一定规划的，至少是有一些想法要提高自己的英语水平吧。我去年这个时候，基本上什么都不知道，对英语怎么继续学习也比较茫然，不知道你们现在有没有这个感觉。
我是分在五班，班里的同学一般英语都很强。基础英语课还行，视听说说课曾让我郁闷了很长时间，几乎每次上听说就很紧张。因为我们高中课上比较沉默，不爱发言，正好跟听老师说课，然后我们就奋笔疾书。我的口语发音还行，就是感觉英式思维不是很敏捷，总担心对话时答不上来，脑子一片空白怎么办。班上很多同学课上表现非常积极，有时给我压力很大。但是，压力归根结底还是要化为动力嘛，大家还是要强迫自己积极举手，不要怕在课堂上因为说错而丢脸，在学习面前是不需要面子一言的，更何况英语关系我们的前途啊，一定要在课上多说英语，并且不懂要不耻下问，这是最关键的。
口语方面只有多联系对话才会提高。当自己跟着老师说或者与同学用英语对话时间久了以后就会自然而然产生语感，这对你的基础英语提升也是有很大帮助的。还有说道口语还有一点，现在我们的新标准英语是配了MP3格式音频文件，英语发音非常纯正，因为口语跟写完全不同，我们需要跟着正确的读音进行复制，而新标准英语的这套MP3材料给我们提供了一个很好的平台，我们一定要每天跟着标准语音进行朗读，像我就会在背课文前先听1遍背诵段落之后熟悉了，再试着跟着MP3进行复制其语音的朗读，可能一开始跟不上他的口语速度，毕竟我们是中国人，发音与他们不同，所以我们可以在某些他读重音或者停顿或者是快速连读的地方做一些标记，再进行跟读，这样，多跟读几遍就会有显著效果，虽然不能完全模仿，但是你会明显体会到自己的口音开始改变，像标准的口语靠拢了。
俗话说，冰冻三尺非一日之寒，英语就很好的的印证了这句古话，只要我们勤加练习，一个学期应该就会有很大提高，政治上我们也说只有量的积累才有质的飞跃嘛!再说背课文，之前我们多次跟读对我们背课文也有很大帮助。当我们朗诵完5~6遍文章之后，我们对课文内容已经能比较熟悉了，此时我们取下耳机，进行一段一段地慢读，顾名思义，就是慢速阅读，因为之前口语速度过快，所以我们无法记住文章细节，因此我们需要慢读，放慢一些阅读速度，让我们大脑有充分记忆文章细节的反应并且记忆的时间，注意一定要是一段一段的慢读和背诵背诵，这样能记忆牢固，不易忘。我这些大概就是我的英语学习情况了。
最后我再提一些对英语学习的建议：第二，单词的积累。这是学习任何一门语言都是要做的基本功。因为英语单词的数量之多，掌握一定的方法和技巧来记单词是十分必要的。第一，要有一本够用的词典。词典是最好的老师。这里说的词典不是电子词典。了词典还要学会用词典和养成查词典的习惯。第六，注重口语和听力练习，养成背诵和广泛阅读的习惯。口语和听力是我们学习弱项。要解决它们，首先是要重视口语课和听力课;其次是在课后进行大量的口语和听力练习。第四，预习和复习。学习好外语预习和复习一个都不能少。通常需要我们认真预习的课程有精读课，泛读课，作文课。口语课也需要在上课前进行充分的准备。
我希望大家能从我的经验中学到些许，然后好好地去规划自己的英语学习，毕竟每个人的学习方法学习态度都不一样。最后祝愿你们在英语学习中取得质的飞跃，早日飞上蓝天!谢谢
