Q: Ako učiť dieťa angličtinu od narodenia?
A: Diskutujúce matky odporúčali metódu "one parent–one language", pravidelné spievanie anglických lullabies a učenie cez nursery rhymes a detské programy (napr. Thomas the Tank Engine, Ten Green Bottles).

Q: Aké materiály sú vhodné na každodenné počúvanie pre zlepšenie porozumenia?

Závery z diskusie

Zhoda

  • Weby www.englishpage.com a http://www.sitesforteachers.com/index.html sú v diskusii uvádzané ako užitočné zdroje na gramatiku a cvičenia.
  • Počúvanie anglických pesničiek a rýmovačiek (English lullabies, Ten Green Bottles) a sledovanie detských programov v angličtine (Thomas the Tank Engine) sú praktické metódy na zvyknutie dieťaťa na jazyk.


Sporné názory

  • Niektorí diskutéri tvrdia, že prepínanie jazykov môže dieťa zmiasť; iní tvrdia, že systém "one parent–one language" alebo používanie jazyka v konkrétnych situáciách dieťaťu pomáha naučiť sa, kedy ktorý jazyk používať.


Otvorené otázky

  • Koľko hodinovej expozície angličtine denne potrebujú malé deti, aby dosiahli funkčnú úroveň plynulosti?
  • Aká je optimálna kombinácia samoučenia (CD/MP3, piesne, filmy) a formálnych kurzov alebo konverzačných hodín pre dospelých študentov, aby videli rýchle zlepšenie?

I absolutely love such kind of nonce formations and since I usually think in EN sometimes I have problem with Slovak and then such nonce formation/neologism like "dedovka" comes up hi hi

Nobody you are sooooo funny really I´m laughing aloud... go back to your healthy food topic because you´re the only one who knows really what is it about ... by the way learn some bad language before you open your mouth and start using it incorrectly... 😝 😝

What the hell were you talking about 😀

Yeah somebody was very funny here with a meaningless message...oh sorry, nobody was being funny here 😀 😀 😀

Maybe your student only wants to have a feeling that she is doing something for her En, hm? And you´re the one who gives her that feeling 😎

When we were chatting yesterday,she told me she needs someone to guide her and to see her progress and motivate her as well.And it will be a bit difficult for me as well,especially for the lesson preparation as I ´ve never had such a good student.On the otehr hand,I appreciate it,because it forces me to be better as well 🙂

Sorry,I have to go now.Talk to U soon,hopefully.Have a nice day Norik 😉
