Many parents find it difficult to learn english: either they die to the detriment of their children, or they insist that they give up without progress for two or three months。
In fact, there are no shortcuts to children's english-language enlightenment, but there are only two things at the core: the right way to respect the rules, and the long-standing persistence of water dripping through the ground。
Today's article, instead of chicken soup, speaks only of bottom logic and demeanour paths。
I. Bottom logic: why is the correct approach the foundation of enlightenment
All the inefficiency, effort and indulging of children in the english language are essentially contrary to the objective laws of the child's language。
Even if the parents try, stay long enough and go in the wrong direction, they can only do half the work and even wipe out the linguistic interests of the children。
Brain science
The 0-6 age group is the golden-sensitive period for the development of children's languages, with the number of brain synapses reaching the peak of a lifetime at around three years of age. At this stage, the brain has a super-linguistic inclusivity and absorptive capacity, with continuous, tunneled english speech stimulation, helping the child's brain to build exclusive language-processing areas, with the natural acceptance of english as a mother tongue, without the need to remember hard。
Acquisition: ignorance is the most efficient
The children's language core is unwittingly learned, not deliberately learned. Adults learn their language by recitation, grammar, brushing, while their children are immersed in big scenes, linguistic sense and mastery of language logic in submersion, a natural gift not available to adults。
Situationalization: building the foundations of english-language thinking
The true ability to speak english is the direct connection of the child's brain to the words, images, scenes and things, skipping the steps of central english translation. The wrong way of enlightening a child is to develop a habit of relying on the chinese interpretation and never building a pure english mind。
Two, the right way: follow the rules, take the least resistance track
The essence of science's enlightenment is to work according to the child's brain development and language learning patterns, to find the lowest resistance level and to achieve half the work easily。
1. Strictly follow the order of " listen-say-read-write " gold
Language input always precedes output, which is an objective and irreversible pattern. Hearing is the foundation of all english-language abilities, and the quality of children's opening words, the speed with which they read and write all depend on the accumulation of prior hearing input. The greatest error is to read, recite and write through the hearing。
2. Adherence to understandable inputs (i+1)
Psychological language learning formula: effective input of a child must add a small amount of new knowledge to existing capacities. Content cannot be too difficult to understand, be uninterested, or simply not improve space for the brain to sustain learning dynamics。
3. Stereotype family language environment
Without relying on foreign teaching, without leaving the country, creating scenery recognition in original drawings, using pure audio to grind ear speech, using fun animation to re-establish the real language, building a immersion-in english environment with debrisification and matching the learning nature of children。
Iii. Long-term insistence: a period of silence will lead to an outbreak
The approach is in the right direction and insistence is at the heart of the land, without which there is no one。
Many parents fail in their initiation, not in the wrong way, but in the short run。
Respect for the silence of the child language
From a large amount of input to an autonomous output, the child takes three to six months or more of the brain internalization process, a period in which the child does not seem to be opening up or making progress, while the brain is in the process of colossal storage of language material and setting up a language system。
It is the regret of the vast majority of families to give up in the absence of results for two or three months, which is tantamount to before dawn。
2. Plumbing long currents over surprise learning
Research in child psychology shows that learning the language of an under-age child is more dependent on continuous habit of indoctrination than on short-term high-intensity raids. A constant 15-30-minute per day immersion is 100 times more effective than a one-time remedial session on weekends, with constant calculus input reinforcing the synaptic memory of the brain language。
3. Quantified change will trigger a qualitative change
English enlightenment is not rapid and only accumulates. Painting, audio and animations at the same level require sufficient horizontal accumulation to support the spiralling of children's abilities. (a) test the real experience: after more than six months of scientific enlightenment, you can see the progress that the child can see in his or her eyes. The more he or she insists, the greater his or her sense of speech, hearing and expression, the more evident he or she becomes, the later he or she enters a virtuous circle of rapid growth。
Iv. Enlightenment positive contrast: avoid 90% of parents ' pits
Wrong mode: death note hard back isolated words, hard syntax, mechanical backstepping text, escape studies in english, breaking the practice and overcoming learning。
The correct pattern: submersible natural learning, based on drawing books, audio, animation scenes, perception of language in taste experience, unconscious accumulation of abilities。
Mistakes: the chinese/british translation and learning from each other, learning to read chinese first, relying on chinese bridge, unable to build an english mind。
Correct habits: scenes correspond directly to the english language through images, actions, circumstances, and skip the chinese translation, creating a sense of native language。
Misthinking: expeditious work, frequent reading of words, forced reading and recitation, short-term output, overdrafting of children's interests。
Right mind: patience waits for silence, interests are at the centre, light reading, re-immersion, and child speech。
Misdirection of resources: blindness and book sales, unstructured resources, a hammer to the east, and no effective accumulation。
Correct resource use: systematic planning, horizontal enrichment of peer-level resources, vertical upgrading of the difficulty ladder and steady empowerment。
It's written to all the anxious parents
English enlightenment is never about talent, money, foreignism, but about science + stability。
Looking for a way to adapt to brain and language patterns, not to rush, not to give up, to stick to more than six months, to see tangible progress, and then you'll find that the more it works, the better。
Those seemingly silent bubbles and accumulations will end up in fluent english, where children will be able to benefit from life
