1. What foreign languages do Vietnamese children learn?
There are a variety of foreign languages that youngsters in my country have been given the opportunity to acquire since they were kids. It’s prevalent that parents enrol in various language courses for their children, ranging from languages commonly spoken in Asian neighbouring countries such as Japanese, Chinese, Korean or Western countries such as English, French, Italian. Also, I think young people’s choices to pick up certain foreign languages also depends on the amount of exposure they have to certain cultures, especially through movies, music and their virality on social media.
2. Why do Vietnamese children learn English?/Why are so many people learning English?
It’s apparent that English has become an international language, so in this globalisation era, having a good grip on this language can greatly benefit people. Firstly, as English acts as an effective communication tool when travelling abroad, it’s more convenient to deal with any problems you might encounter on your overseas trips, since there’s always someone speaking English out there and giving you instructions on how to tackle certain unexpected issues. Moreover, preparing yourselves to become global citizens can open the door to many opportunities out there, such as pursuing your academic paths or enhancing your employment prospects abroad.
3. How can you help children learn English?
The effective methods to acquire a foreign language like English may vary, depending on different styles of learning. For instance, if you’re a visual learner, improving English vocabulary by using visual aids like pictures or videos might work well for you. If you’re an auditory learner, you might show your preference for listening to other people communicating in your target languages in order to gain the input to produce the language later. However, no matter what type of learner one is, “practice makes perfect” is still what language learners should bear in mind, and only by putting enough effort into frequent practice can you become a competent language user.
4. Do you think the way people learn English today is the same as in the past?
There might exist both similarities and differences between the techniques English learners adopted in their language acquisition process a few decades ago and at the present. In terms of the similarities, I think people would still attempt to improve their communication skills by finding the opportunities to converse with native speakers, or enriching their vocabulary by watching movies of English speaking cultures, or using dictionaries and reading books in English.
Regarding the differences, I reckon that thanks to the explosion of the Internet and social media, as well as the availability of high tech digital gadgets, it has been more convenient for language learners to gain access to the wealth of language knowledge for free, along with expanding their circle of international friends to hone their English skills.
5. What are the benefits of the Internet for people’s language learning?
As I mentioned before, the enormous advantages of the Internet to language learners are undeniable. While distance learning allows learners to study languages at their own pace and in the comfort of their homes, they also have the freedom to access an abundance of learning resources free of charge. For example, it’s possible to make use of various English learning platforms, watching English movies with subtitles, reading online news and blogs in English, to name just a few. Being able to establish friendships with people in other parts of the world by initiating conversations with them in English to exchange information is also one perk of using the Internet to study English.
