Today's requirements for English are no longer "know" but forced to "master" this language, to erase the boundary with new knowledge and horizons. But the fear for foreign languages ​​is still present, when you have to step out of the safe area of ​​your native language. The status of teaching and learning English is still an issue to be improved in Vietnam. Many students are afraid of English time, while teachers are embarrassed to find new ways to teach.

Observe true-false

Floating obsession when learning English

Using English, speakers need to arrange words in a different order, using new words, bending tongue muscles in a different way, ears and brains must always be ready to listen and handle other sounds absolutely native language. The large class size, high score thinking makes students hesitate to practice, fear of being laughed at if they make mistakes. So, the teacher kept teaching, the learners kept stomping on the spot and were always obsessed with false fears, leading to avoidance and not often cases of becoming aversion to foreign languages.]

"Reverse process": Many places also apply the method of teaching writing and reading according to the curriculum, then practice reading new words and finally, students will hear the dialogue. This is a fairly common way of teaching at schools, but unfortunately, it is a complete opposite of the method of learning a foreign language: as a child acquiring mother language, it is "listening-speaking-reading-writing." ". Listen and penetrate that language first, then follow it, then read and write it at the end.

Heavy theory, not reading books: Being busy learning in short paragraphs in the curriculum makes thinking framed, leading to embarrassment when exposed to reality. Unfortunately, many students have not been instructed and encouraged to read books and newspapers in English, but instead are a series of theoretical exercises that put a lot of right / wrong pressure on students.

Lack of visualization: Actively applying the new language is the best way to learn, instead of looking at pictures and watching videos illustrating passively. Most classes at the school today do not have the space, time and tools for students to practice foreign languages. The living environment in Vietnam is also not an ideal condition for students to use English or any other language.
