I will present part 1. -From my point of view, how to learn English listening effectively, you should find a suitable level. You should listent to short conversations. -One of the best ways to learn English listening to watch a movie and listen to music. Please watch and listen to whatever you love. 1.How to watch English movies effectively ? -An effective way to do this is to watch a movie with subtitles. The first step is to read the script looking up the words you don’t know and working out what the sentences again. Then you can watch a movie with subtitles. Then a few weeks later watch it again. -You can choose from many movies in different topic like: romantic, adventure, horror, action... Here are some example movies: HARRY POTTER, EXTRA, FRIENDS, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, MOM, THE BIGBANG THEORY... -I would like to share one way to watch a movie. Please watch the video on the screen... -At first, you should watch a movie with Vietnamese English subtitles. After that, you should completely remove the Vietnamese subtitles.If you don’s know the meaning of the vocabulary, please write it in the flashcard to check the meaning later. After a while of practice, you can watch English movies without subtitles. 2.How to listen to English music effectively ? -Here are the pictures of some famous singers and bands. Now, you can see on the screen. -As you can see, when listen to music there will be melodies that will interest you. Watching English movies and listening to music continuosly, regularly will help you to have reflexive skills when listening English. While you listening to a recording, you silently read the same text. This activity uses one skill (reading) to support the one (listening). Learners prefer listening while reading over listening by itself and tend to again higher vocabulary leaning scores and comprehension related scores when reading while listening. Thank you for hearing my presentation. 3. Share our experiences: NGHI:-Hello everybody, my name is Nghi. I’m from group 7.

Well, we have told you How can you learn a language through listening. Now, we will move on to How can you learn a language through reading. -Firstly, from my point of view, read texts which are at the right level for you.This is because in English there are many book, called Graded readers, which are books especially written for foreign language learners. + For example, Oxford University Press has the Oxford Bookworms... + The Oxford Bookworms series has the following level: ( bảng trong sách) So a learner who knows only 400 words can read several books at level 1 of the series. + Graded learners series end at around 3000 words . If you know more words than, you should read the Mid-frequency readers which are written at the 4000, 6000 and 8000 word levels. They are free and can be found at Paul Nation’s web site http://www.victoria.ac.nz/lals/staff/paul-nation.aspx + For more information on graded readers visit the Extensive Reading Foundation web site... -Secondly, accompany reading with deliberate learning from word cards or flash card programs. - Thirdly, you can read electronic texts using a program that has easy dictionary look up. You can look up the meaning of a word just by touching it. +For example: Kindle or Kobo... -Finally, make sure you do plenty of reading. The higher your level of proficiency, the more you will need to read in order to meet words at the right level for you enough times to have a chance to learn them. - Compare Extensive Reading and Narrow Reading... Thank you for hearing. HUỆ: Hello everyone, my name is Hue, the last member of group 7. - I have a question for you: When you have read a long text, is it better to re-read the same book or read a different one? You will think and raise your hand to answer. Anyone who answers correctly will have a gift... - As you can see on the screen, each reading will have different benefits. These lists suggest that re-reading is a good idea, and that it would be good to have a mixture of re-reading and different reading in a language learning program. - About reading English effectively, I want to share some of my learning methods: +You must improve a good English vocabulary. When I see new words, I often use highlighter to bold and write them on flashcard I think you should have a flashcard so as to learn by heart new words. + I practice reading comprehension from a short paragraph and then into an essay. I choose to skimming the content, read the question and find the answer. + I often use a TFLAT Dictionary or Oxford Dictionary. Above is today’s lesson content. My group’s presentation here is the end. Thank you for hearing.
