How do you acquire confidence?Speak English with friends first because with them you can speak freely without feeling shy.
Then try your ability with your teachers and with foreigners if you have an opportunity to meet them.Don’t be afraid of mistakes.Nobody is above mistakes; and don’t be afraid to ask questions about things you don’t know.This is the way to acquire knowledge.
Not until you begin to think in English rather than Chinese can you be said to know the language.This is not a superhuman achievement—only a question of practice.Thinking in English will help you to truly understand how the language is spoken.
Read novels to build vocabulary,thus gaining confidence.Start with small volumes of 30 to 40 pages.Write down any new word you discover and look it up in your dictionary.Learn how to use the new word by making sentences with it.Bring the word to your teacher to have it explained more fully.
Don’t be angry when you learn a new word today and forget it tomorrow.To forget is a natural process; to remember is unnatural and requires effort.Of 10 new words learnt in a day,only two or three will remain in the memory.The others you will forget and have to relearn.
When learning them for the second time,they will come more easily,and this time you probably will remember nearly all of them.A small minority,however,may elude you again,and have to be learnt for a third time.Constant repetition is necessary.
