Learn Basic English and Open Many Doors


When you learn basic English, you have opened a door on the world.
Believe it or not, English is actually the dominant international language that is used for business, communications, science, and even diplomatic relations.


While it is definitely important for people to develop and master a broad English vocabulary, it is equally important to make sure that you learn standard English grammar. While vocabulary can help you find the words to express yourself, having proper grammar will help you speak and write in a way that other people can understand.
Although it may seem like a daunting task to try to learn English, there are a variety of online aids that can make the process a whole lot easier for you.

Understanding the Basics
First of all, it is important that you understand what is meant when we talk about learning the “basics” of the English language. There are several basics that you will need to know in order to develop a good grasp of the English language.
If you are to learn basic English, you are first of all going to have the memorize the English alphabet.. Other basics of the English language that are important include learning the numbers, the colors, simple greetings, dates and times, the weather, and how to speak of family and friends. Simply put, the basics of English basically include the building blocks for the rest of your learning as well as the parts of the language that are necessary for the simplest and most important communication.







Written or Oral – Which Way is Best?
If you are going to learn basic English, you will have the opportunity to learn orally or by doing written work. There is much debate about which method is the best one to start with and the opinions differ drastically.
On the one hand some feel that starting out with written basic English helps the eye to recognize what it sees and then it can be verbalized. However, other people debate that starting out with oral learning is the better choice. For many people it comes right down to the learning style that you prefer. If you learn more by seeing words, then you may want to start learning basic English in a written manner. However, if you learn better by speaking and hearing, then oral learning may work the best for you.


How Long Will it Take to Learn English?

This is one of the most common questions that is asked about the English language. Well, it may only take you a few weeks or months to learn basic English; however, becoming efficient in the language is going to take quite a bit longer. In most cases studies have shown that it can actually take adults many years to become fluent in the English language.

However, it is important to note that every person is different, and every situation is different. While it may take one person who lives in a non-English speaking country a few months to learn basic English, it could take someone else a longer or a shorter time to learn the same amount of material, especially if that person were living in an English environment.

You will find the method that is right for you. No matter what works for anyone else, your method is the one that is right for you.

Meu livro virtual

Olá! Certamente, qualquer um de nós tem esses momentos nostálgicos em que voltamos à nossa infância, à nossa cartilha, aos nossos queridos professores. Foi pensando nisso que criei o poema que pode ser acesado abaixo.

A tarefa de ser professor


Não é uma tarefas das mais fáceis ser professor nos dias atuais, sobretudo quando se confronta com as dificuldades físicas e psíquicas da criança e adolescente nos moldes da aprenizagem. A todo momento confrontamos com o acúmulo de informações em detrimento da velocidade da tecnologia e a transformação gradativa das práticas pedagógicas, levando-nos a redescobrir a cada dia o nosso papel.

Mas é a soma disso tudo que nos torna diferencial, sobretudo quando conscientizamos que não somos mais meros transmissores de informações, mas sim, compartilhadores de conhecimento, aptos e abertos a novas aprendizagens com nossos colegas de profissão e, sobretudo, com os nossos alunos. Essa é a nossa meta. E nesse ponto de partida encontramos o nosso potencial e o nosso referencial.

Hoje em dia é comum confrontarmos com aprendizes, nossos educandos, que, muitas vezes familiarizados com os avanços tecnológicos, nos ensinam também como lidar com o processo de rapidez contemporânea. É claro que, para isso precisamos estar abertos e descer do nosso pedestal de mestres para acolhermos o que realmente nos fazem crescer como pessoas, pois são nas mudanças que quebramos paradigmas obsoletos e fazemos jus aos nossos juramentos de educadores.

Foi pensando nisso que criei esse blog como forma de interação e troca de idéias dessa profissão tão antiga e tão necessária.
