Situation teaching English to children in Vietnam today
Teacher Nguyen Quoc Hung, English was introduced to Vietnam thirty years ago thanks to the parents and children, and teaches movement English is promoted today. Proportional to this movement is the central teaching English to children, meets all the requirements of families and the students' chatter ". However, in Vietnam, there is currently no assessment of the effectiveness of the center. Vietnam Children free English language centers in the majority start from 4 years old. Each center selected different teaching curricula that teach native teachers and teaching assistants who often Vietnam.
On the training of teachers, Vietnam no English teacher training for primary education (no fields of training). Most teachers are trained to teach English to adults. This led to a teacher with 10 000 corpus from conveying data for children with mere 300 words, that they were "overloaded".
Regarding the method of teaching English to children, we often hear the phrase from "learning by playing". However, many teachers still confusion in the process of teaching English to the children. For example, while helping them reach English through songs, the teacher could not differentiate between "sing to learn" (sung to school) or "learn to sing" (learning to sing). Want to teach them new words mean in three songs that are just three words are repeated, not in a cage from which three long songs. If not master this method, teaching English to children certainly will not achieve high efficiency.
Currently, Ministry of Education and Training put on the teaching of English in primary education to students beginning in grade 3. The Ministry is developing the program through 2020 and invited experts to build a redress program spontaneity in teaching - learning English today.
"Should children learn English at any age? "
Ms. Phuong Dong Tam Ward, Hai Ba Trung expressed concerns: "my daughter was 7 years old this year. I went to learn English from the age of 4 but does not tell much. Do not know so I can learn to be effective or not? "
That was the general concerns of many parents who participated in the seminar. Explaining this, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Hung said that parents should not worry and do not be too ambitious, in order to "belligerent" in their children's learning all the consequences that would come under pressure child but education is not effective. According to Mr. Hung, not necessarily for their children English from early on, however, conditional family can give children acquainted, access to English from kindergarten (4 years and older) but should have rightly recognizes that children play to learn, not only to language center to learn English or a foreign language there.
Parents and teachers of English for children like?
Tips of Vu Hung is: With parents know foreign languages, can help children learn by choosing curriculum and appropriate tape, while guiding the school according to tapes.
The parents do not know the language, go to it to the school. His advice for parents is when there is no specialized education, do not know much about how to teach English, best not to teach.
Each day parents just turn the tape for about 10 minutes to their children and look to create an environment "mimic" the language for children. Parents also need patience to let children see repeated, so they can "turn" in English in the same communication environment.
With the Vietnam teacher should know how to utilize the source tapes, software English teaching is plentiful today. Do not ask children to "read in her" which is "Read strip".
Method of teaching English to children most effective
According to Mr. Hung, preschool children with psychological characteristics is through the play to find out how Around world, so should aim was to familiarize children, access to English as a language game. We teach the children of single words and phrases as units "prefabricated", no need to teach the abstract meaning from, nor be afraid of him "rote". In particular, the need to give the children play to learn with the forms of the game to imitate, act, sing, draw, paint, etc.
For children at primary school age, begin to learn English as a new language, while learning the mother tongue is still the main task. As English only 4 periods / a month, so we should not expect quick young English speaking fluently. We should be checked at the level of "light" one. The fact that a child wants to speak Vietnamese fluently take about three years, and that is in terms children "immersed" in Vietnamese and hundreds of "teachers" teach: grandparents, parents, relatives, etc. Currently, in Vietnam, according to statistics, one of the children to learn about 800 words and sample sentences are too severe 52. Language learning is a process, requiring time, can not burn phase.
Regarding the children should learn English with Vietnamese teachers or native speakers and to give the child to school, or inviting center teachers about teaching, teacher Hung said that children can learn with Vietnamese teachers, provided that said teachers utilize tapes, software abundant teaching English today. Recommended for children because children love to centers of friends, excited to learn. She Jullie that foreign teachers have good pronunciation, but do not understand much about the characteristics of children in Vietnam and Vietnamese culture.
The backing should choose textbooks teach English to children under any criterion, Mr. Hung said that almost all of the English curriculum, America brought to Vietnam are designed for students to Europe, which is not suitable for students in Vietnam, with the grammar characteristics is not accented. If we use textbooks imported materials are not entirely consistent. Textbooks matching characteristics Vietnam Children currently in the process of compiling.
On overheard young adults learn many different languages and incorporate "haphazard", parents should not worry. Children will find out which language is the most close to us. Overall, at this age children love and are capable to become familiar with the new language. Let the children develop language naturally, ie, forming a natural reflex for children.
