Unit 1 How can we become good learners?
Last year, I didn’t like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly that I didn’t understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.
Then one day I watched an English movie called toy story. I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie! So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words. My pronunciation improved as well by listening to the conversations in English movies. I discovered that listening something interesting is the secret to language learning. I also learned useful sentences like “It’s a piece cake”or “It serves you right”. I did not understand these sentences at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in the dictionary.
Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar so that I can have a better understanding of English movies.
How Can You Become a Successful L earner?
Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But weather or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common.
Creating an interest in what they learn
Studies show that if you are interested in something, your brain is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something interesting. For example,if they need to learn English and they like music or sports, they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English. This way they will not get bored. Practising and learning from mistakes
Good learners think about what they are goog at and what they need to practise more. Remember, “Use it or loser it.”Even if you learn something well,you will forget it unless you use it. “Practice makes perfect.”Good learners will keep practising what they have learned, they are not afraid of making mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes.
Developing their studying skills
It is not enough to just study hard. Good learners know the best way they can study. For example, they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. They also look for ways to review what they have learned. They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student. Asking questions
Good learners often ask questions during or after class, They even ask each other and try to find out the answers. Knowledge comes from questioning.
Learning is a lifelong journey because every brings something new. Everything they you learn becomes a part of you and changes you, so learn wisely and learn well.
