Steve’s Tip of the Week

“To speak well, we eventually need to speak a lot, without worrying about how we sound, or the mistakes we make. We will learn through our mistakes. However, to make sure we improve, we need to continue listening and reading.

If we expose ourselves to lots of the language through massive reading and listening, we will notice more and more things; words, grammar patterns and even aspects of pronunciation. But we have to want to notice these things. We have to train ourselves to be attentive to the language.”

Julz

Julz611, known as one of the most positive and outgoing members of the LingQ community, started learning Chinese from scratch in her 50s. Age is no a barrier at all. She likes Chinese people and wants to use the language as a bridge to befriend and assist new immigrants in her community.
Julz’s favorite activity during the Challenge so far is listening on her MP3 player and reading on the iPad (which is a new habit, by the way). The most challenging but rewarding aspect is learning the characters. Good luck, Julz, and thanks for your positive attitude! 祝你好运!
