今天在韦博英语做升级演讲。我应该是韦博第一个上完商务英语，然后跟别人讲儿童教育的吧！That's kind of funny！（我会告诉你们，我是为了实践打卡吗？No！）
Today, English is more and more important for Chinese Children.
Good at English means you can learn more knowledge and receive more massage from the whole world.
As we know, English is a language, and children are born to learn language.
The earlier they start to learn, the easier it will be.
Today I will share to you some experience that I let my son study English at home.
And I hope that I can get some advices from you.
I let my son start to learn English when he was about 4 years old. And now he is 7.
We know the best way to learn is that your parents speak English to you all the time.
But unfortunately，my son doesn’t have this kind of parents.
So, I had to try some other methods, including:
Cartoons, children's songs, computer games, picture books, online lessons and English dramas.
Cartoons:
Children all love watching cartoons. And they can learn a lot from cartoons.
If they must watch cartoons , why don’t we just let them watch English cartoons.
They can absorb English in a happy state.
And as we say: interesting is the best teacher.
Children's songs are used for mothers to teach their children to pronounce.
I think this is the same all over the world.
But we Chinese parents can’t sing those English child songs very well.
So, I just played these classic songs on my phone, or on the CD-player in my car, repeatedly.
The key is let them listen again and again.And they will learn faster and better than their parents.
Computer games
Kids always love to play computer games.
Some educational games for kids appeared recent years.
They are convenient for kids to learn daily English nouns and verbs.
So I let them play some games on iPad as rewards, if they behave well.
Picture books
Children love to listen to stories.
Reading picture books together is a good way for parents to accompany their children.
We have many outstanding picture books are translated from English. (like Dr. Seuss)
Why don’t we just use those original English versions.
We can read the story and learn some English at the same time.
Online lessons
When my son was 5 years old, the online English lessons appeared.
Since then, I let him talk to English teachers from Northen America 2-3 times a week.
He behaved well on it and had a lot of fun.
English dramas
Sometimes, when I have spare time, we play English dramas together.
The topic can come from a picture book or a fragment of a cartoon.
For children，acting is best way to learn.
These are 6 methods I used to let my son study English.
Now his pronunciation is much better than me, not just English, also mandarin.
And he knows many dinosaurs’ names that I don’t know.
But he can’t communicate with others in English very well.
His listening and reading are good enough for his age, but his expression is not.
He can’t say whole sentences well.
So I am confused how can I help him to improve his expression?
thanks！
Question1:
In these 6 methods, which one you think is the most effective?
Answer: at the beginning,computer games is most effective. And now, I think the online lessons are the most helpful ,and the most expansive one.
Qustion2:You just shared methods for your son to study English, do you have any good way to study English of yourself. And what do you think about the classes of Web?
Answer: I think the classes of Web are good. But the key is how often you can come to study. Book classes as many as you can,and keep learning,that’s the most important.
For myself, I think keep reading and listening are helpful：attend the Mindreading , read a part of a novel every day, watch TV serials and keep listening to those conversations when I am walking ,running, even driving and riding. That’s helpful and fun.
