What should I do if I can t keep up with the pace of teaching in English?

When I graduated from university more than ten years ago, I boasted that my English was still good, and I did well in the TOEFL and GRE exams, but when I took my first public class when I studied in the UK, I basically broke down. I can't even remember the notes of the board secretary, I don't know too many words, the teacher writes a little scribble, I don't know what the specific spelling is, I can only follow the description, go home and look up the dictionary to guess what the word is. However, I didn't collapse after all, I gritted my teeth and survived for three months, and then it became easier and easier.

You're in a deep pit right now, and if you want to climb out of it, you need to work hard to get out, and you need someone to pull you along. The biggest difference between college and high school is that there are no teachers who will help you, and you need to seek help from teachers on your own. Take the initiative to talk to the teacher about your difficulties, listen to their suggestions, and ask them to help you revise your study plan, all of which should be based on yourself, and the teacher will only give you suggestions.

As for how you do it yourself, the background material in your topic is not written in detail, and I can't give advice on what I did, but I can only tell you how I did it back then. I studied economics, the first useful thing I did was to make up English economic terms, this process is not difficult, the most commonly used economic proper nouns are those hundreds, spend a few weeks to get the melon ripe, at this time the feeling of listening to the lecture is no longer confused, but the water is out, although there are still many words that I don't understand, but the nouns are understood, the backbone of the sentence is grasped, and I feel a lot more steady. The second useful skill is to read a lot, economics textbooks are hundreds of pages, and I read them over and over again.

There are also routines in English expressions, and after you read more, you will naturally say a lot of words, and if you can speak, you can help you understand, and if you understand, you can communicate. Taking reading as a breakthrough, improving oral skills, then improving listening, and finally solving communication, this path is all stupid kung fu, but solid, step by step, every step is in practice. The third useful skill is to improve your writing skills.

I don't know if your school has a writing elective, if you have one, you can apply for one, if not, find some writing books to read. The homework should be written beautifully, half of it is the routine, half of it is the content, and the special improvement of the writing can help you get the half of the routine, which is very cost-effective and gets twice the result with half the effort. In short, not collapsing is the premise, don't have illusions, it's enough to make a little progress every day, don't be afraid of slowness, just be afraid of standing, find the right place, work hard, grit your teeth and get through, and it will really get easier and easier later.

After all, it's still an honest child, but I can't understand it in class. When I first joined the company a few years ago, I was quite confident in my English at first. As a result, due to the peculiarities of our department, it is often necessary to have ** meetings with the Spaniards.

As a result, as soon as the meeting arrived, I was completely confused, and I had no idea what the other party was talking about. Being in the workplace, it's not like being in school, and not being able to understand what the other person is saying is a very serious thing. If you buy a house, you have to pay off the mortgage every month, you have to support your family, you have to support your wife, you don't do your job well, you lose your job, it's a big deal.

But I have one advantage, that is, I am thick-skinned and bold. If you don't understand, you continue to listen, and the big deal is often repeated by the other party. If it really doesn't work, after the meeting is dismissed, pretend to confirm and communicate by email.

After all, I will never feel sorry for my family or my boss. admit the shortcomings, hurry up and catch up, people are more popular than people, and they can't understand how big the class is. It is not certain what work will be done in the future.

Anyway, when there are foreigners, I take the initiative to chat, and I stutter a little. A few years have passed, and now I am naturally communicating with my Spanish colleagues every day, the difference is that I talk and laugh freely, and I am no longer the same. In the final analysis, if you can't do it for a while, you can't do it for a lifetime, and you can do everything if you have a thick skin.

Your word is just a cognitive word, not a listening word. You may recognize the word, but you can't understand it when it comes out of someone's mouth. It doesn't matter, it's a necessary stage ......First of all, don't feel that you don't understand and don't listen, insist on paying attention to the class, how much can you listen to, we have all been like this before, it is really difficult, as long as you insist you will find it easier and easier, because the teacher has some fixed words in class, and you will naturally understand what it means when you listen to more.

The second is to listen more, and the number of words is of course a must. Find some listening tutoring materials that suit you, find the original text to read, listen repeatedly, listen to the places you didn't understand at first, and remember to review, after a long time, it will be your own listening ability. This is just a suggestion for practicing listening.

It is a leap from elementary school to junior high school English, don't be nervous, but you must hold on, spend a lot of time reciting and memorizing, and lay a solid foundation, so that it will be easy in the future, otherwise it will be very troublesome. Don't compare it with primary school, it's not at the same level at all. In short, if you want to learn well, you must endure hardships and ......Come on!

Don't feel ashamed when you ask your teacher to speak slower. I'm happy if my students ask me to speak more slowly, because it helps me better understand their needs. Vocabulary and sentence structure are part of English knowledge, and for every word you learn, there's one less word to learn, isn't it, and if you're not used to the accent of a native English teacher, it may be the pot of your previous English teacher.

This means that you have a good chance to correct your accent and make it more perfect. Also, if you have a native English teacher, talk to them as much as you can. Go to them during business hours and ask them a lot of questions.

I promise they'll love helping you. I know, I love my ability to let grinding finger students come to me during work hours to ask questions. I'm cute and helped them improve.
