According to data released by the U.S. Embassy in China, the number of Chinese students enrolled in the U.S. higher education institutions in 2012 reached 194029, a 23% increase from last year. This is the third consecutive year after 2010, China has become the largest source of American higher education institutions. The huge market of studying abroad has promoted the prosperity of English education, and the number of students who take the TOEFL test continues to increase every year, reaching 20% to 30%. It is noteworthy that among the students in the United States, 80% said their English learning in the country can not be directly used. English can not be used in China according to the Speakingmax spoken talent (speakingmax.cn) team by telephone to extract 300 effective samples of statistics found that 80% of the biggest dilemma for students in the United States is that English can not be directly used. In Britain and the United States, people can use more than 8,000 words a day, the most commonly used sentence patterns about 300. Such figures are not a problem for Chinese people who have been paying attention to English education from an early age. But why can't you talk about the language you learned? "The root cause of this dilemma is the way of learning." Speakingmax co-founder Jason believes that the way English learning works determines the effect of learning. After chatting with a number of brand-training school graduates, Jason found there were big problems with oral English training. There are three drawbacks in English teaching the key to learning English well is to practise and speak more, and secondly, to have a good English environment, and finally, to learn the English that can be used in real life and to persevere. However, the current English teaching institutions generally use large class teaching, a class down students do not have the opportunity to speak English, not even open the opportunity to talk about how to practice more. In a spoken class, even if you have the opportunity to speak English, the person you communicate with is just another you, his (her) way of thinking, life background, language ability and you are no different. In such a learning environment, how can you enjoy the real English communication environment? What's worse, most of the teaching institutions still teach mechanical and dogmatic book English, many of which are already obsolete, and no one in the Anglo-American world in daily life. The way out of English study Speakingmax co-founder Jason believes that to reverse the current situation of English education and find a new way out for English learning, we should begin to change the English teaching methods and contents to teach the English to the students who are really British and American. The current popular world of online English learning model, perhaps to solve the problem of one of the prescriptions. For example, in the Speakingmax site, students through online high-definition video, and Ivy Elite, New York, Los Angeles and other cities to communicate with the locals, both open practice opportunities, but also to learn and master the most authentic American English. "If students can persevere, it is only a matter of time before they learn English well." "In Jason's view, the use of Speakingmax online learning English is not as boring as the traditional model, the learning processTeach in music, get points, medals and small gifts, "it becomes much easier to keep learning." "According to the introduction, Speakingmax is a revolutionary oral English learning site, tailored for the Chinese people, so that everyone can easily master authentic oral English, to solve the mute language."
