Hi all!
I'm a Vietnamese and I have been learnt English for long time, formerly I very interested in English though I can read English quite fluently, but I still can't listen, speak or write anything fluently even those skill of mine(listening, speaking, writing) so bad. So I gradually don't feel interested in English...
Fortunately, recently, i felt interest in it, i can read more fluently, i can write and listen better thought I still not yet speak English but I believe I can speak fluently a day nearby.
Especially, I have just been reviewed English recently, around middle August, I observe my English is advance quite fast because I learned in high interest, I can acquire quite a lot of vocabularies easily.
The technique that I use here to acquire vocabulary called: Free-reading technique, Perhaps, this technique I used to use but I don't know it.
Why its name is Free-reading, that is while you read something, example: News, newspaper online, e-book..and so on, you'll look for the vocabularies but you don't understand its meaning by a electric dictionary(remember, must be a E-dictionary) in order to we can looking for the word that you want to know its meaning. Attention, you must read the material with the speech as a native speaker, don't use the dictionaries that it make by paper, it'll reduce your reading speed.
When you looking a word...notice 3 things after this:
- Don't try to remember that word
- Don't take note(though its mean is so long)
- And don't underline it
...just read, looking for the word, just read, tired, relax...and continue. Don't try to remember anything.
When you looking for a word, and after that you can don't remember that word because you didn't try to remember it, don't worry, you looking for that word again, and if you still don't remember, looking for it again,...over and over again as long as whole your document. The vocabularies that is repeat again more time and you can remember that is the common words in around 3000 common words(CORE VOCABULARIES). Vice versa, the vocabularies you don't remember that isn't common words...
By the way, I could hear quite word while I listen a lecture of native speakers...so when i can hear better I can speak better.
