Many students face common challenges when studying a new language. Many Chinese students find it difficult to learn English, but not Chinese, because Chinese is their mother language. As an English teacher in Beijing, Xu Feng knows his students usually meet various difficulties in English learning. Among them, remembering new words, understanding the grammar and spoken English seem to be the most difficulties for students. How to deal with the difficulties in English learning? Here are Xu Feng’s suggestions:

First, copy new words on pieces of paper, stick them on the walls in the bedroom or living room, and read the words aloud when seeing them. Change the words often.

Next, focus on understanding and practicing the basic grammar rules before moving on to the more difficult ones.

Finally, practice speaking English as much as possible, whether it’s with foreigners, classmates, friends or teachers. Also, watching English TV shows or movies, listening to English songs, and reading English books are good ways to improve spoken English.

In a word, English learning is a challenging but rewarding (回报) experience. Remembering that practice makes perfect and never give up. We can achieve our language learning goals.

Mnemonics are techniques to help you remember things. There are a variety of them, ______ rhymes, spelling acronyms (首字母缩略词) and sentence mnemonics.

Rhymes are a great way ______ things. The sounds, unusual words and rhythm of them help you recall ideas. Do you know when Columbus sailed to America? There’s a thyme to help you which goes like this, “______ fourteen-hundred and ninety-two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.” Most people ______ that since they ______ young and never forget it!

Spelling acronyms involve creating a sentence ______ on the letters of a target word. For example, the following sentence can help you with the spelling of the word “because”, “Big elephants can always understand small elephants”. Notice how the ______ letter of each word in the sentence spells out the word “because”. This one ______ to remind you to include the “h” in the word “which”, “Which house is Cath’s house?” To spell Mississippi, a rhythm mnemonic is combined with a spelling one: “miss iss ippi”. And ______ you can’t remember the spelling of the word “mnemonics”, use this one “Mike never eats meat or nuts in case he is sick.”

Sentence mnemonics are also ______. The following can help you with the difference between the words “principal” and “principle”, “A principal is your pal at school, and a principle is a belief or rule.” Or this one to help you remember the difference in spelling between “deserts” (such as the Sahara) and “desserts” (such as Tiramisu), “A dessert has two sugars so it’s ______ but a desert only has one.” The two “sugars” mentioned in the sentence refer to the two s’s in the word “dessert”. Or this one to clear up the confusion between “stationery” and “stationary”, “The car is stationary. An envelope is stationery”.

You can learn grammar rules with sentence mnemonics too. For example, this one ______ help you with the position of adjectives, “Adjectives come before nouns just as ’A’ comes before ‘N’.” And this one can help you learn about the use of apostrophes (撇号), “Apostrophes show possession (拥有).”
