Making Mistakes is Okay 😅
When we learn something new, we often make mistakes. This is normal. But did you know that making mistakes can help us learn English?
When we make a mistake, we learn what not to do. This helps us do better next time. So, making mistakes is a part of learning.
Listening and Speaking 🎧
Listening and speaking are very important for learning English. One way is to provide scaffolds and trees. These are like guides to help you organize your thoughts before speaking.
Patience is Key 🧘
Learning a new language takes time. So, patience is very important. Teachers need to give students more time to think and speak. And students need to be patient with themselves too.
Learning English is a journey.
It's okay to make mistakes along the way. In fact, making mistakes can help us learn better. So, let's celebrate our mistakes and keep learning!
Remember, the journey to becoming a confident English speaker is a marathon, not a sprint. Keep practicing, keep making mistakes, and most importantly, keep learning!
