[Interest ③] How to start studying AI English?! Plan your study method
💯💯💯
I'm not good at English... no, I'm not good at it. Well...no, I want to give it a try.
The English language trauma is so scary;;; Isn’t this a pointless challenge?!ㅠㅠ
We must learn English.
Because English is the universal language! It is clear that English as a language is a very practical choice. Even in countries where English is not the main language, knowledge of English is often required in business or academia.
The reason I felt I had to relearn English is because we live in the AI era, and also because I want to try using Chet GPT. It is also unfortunate that information shared online by Korean people, who are sensitive to change and respond quickly, can only be accessed in Korean. The world has become smaller and information is shared in real time regardless of geographical distance, but the reality is that English still serves as the main language, and wouldn't people who use English have a higher probability of exchanging and receiving more diverse information?! The reality is that there are clear limitations to Korean search in order to quickly obtain information from big data, and the search scope for content is also narrow.
I currently want to learn English and communicate with the world just a little^-^.
Where do you start with ‘studying English alone’?!

1. Goal setting
It is important to set a goal before you start studying English. They say that English must be learned throughout one's life, but no one plans to learn English their entire life. Deciding specifically why you need English conversation and how much you want to improve your skills can be said to be an important first step to achieving your goal. For example, it could be having the ability to have everyday English conversations or having the ability to write in English. Setting goals in this way not only provides direction for learning, but also allows you to track your learning progress. You can easily obtain English study materials on the Internet or at bookstores. However, most materials are not categorized by level, so it can be difficult for beginners. Therefore, it is recommended that beginners look for books or lectures aimed at beginners. Additionally, it is important to familiarize yourself with English expressions that can be used in real situations through examples.
2. Set study time
Learning time will vary depending on the learner's situation. It may also vary depending on your goals. Studying English requires consistent effort. It is important to create a consistent study habit by learning even a little bit every day. For example, this could be making and memorizing an English vocabulary list every day, practicing English listening, or writing English.
3. Make a plan according to your field of study
‘English word study, sentence patterns (basics), grammar (basics), Reading, Listening’
The basis of studying English is word study. It doesn't matter whether you are old or young now. Even elementary school students, working housewives, or seniors can do it. However, for those who are not sure how to read English words, we recommend that you study phonics first.
Even if you feel that your vocabulary is a little weak, you will accumulate it if you continue, so you can study by dividing it into about 20 words a day. This is a way to study sentence patterns. It is important to build your skills by studying conversation. This is because studying English is ultimately about communication. You can choose any textbook to study sentence patterns. Among the pattern textbooks on the market, there are several textbooks at the beginner level, so take a look and choose the one you like.
4. Find a study method that suits you
The key to studying English alone is to find a study method that suits you and study consistently. It's a good idea to try different methods and choose what works best for you. It is difficult to see results in studying English in a short period of time, but it is important to make consistent efforts.
The reality of English education in Korea / English proficiency index ranked 49th?

Korea is a country with a high passion for education in the world. In particular, when it comes to English education, we are so passionate about sending our children to an English academy called English Kindergarten from their childhood. The time when Korean children first learn English is getting earlier. Perhaps due to the strong enthusiasm for English education, participation in private education by grade level is the highest. In fact, there is a reason why more educational resources are invested in English during childhood when language acquisition is more advantageous. However, despite this investment in educational resources, looking at the ranking table introduced above, it seems difficult to escape the limitations of being a non-English speaking country. In fact, this may be because there are limits to learning a language through study. However, despite this enthusiasm for education, it was ranked 49th in the recently announced 2023 English Proficiency Index for Non-English-speaking Countries.
What direction should English education in Korea take?
I believe that English as a learning tool is being taught at a sufficiently high level. However, it is unfortunate that English skills that can be used in practical situations are generally lacking. Tyler, an American broadcaster, said: “Language is not something to study, it is something to acquire.”
Acquisition is learning, and the word “to learn” is an expression derived from the word “baeda,” which expresses something that permeates and becomes familiar with it. It is said that language is something that should be learned naturally, rather than being studied mentally. It is right to learn a language not through studying, but through repeated exposure and practice. However, because the Korean educational field does not have such an environment, it is bound to be difficult. In order to further improve the English proficiency of Korean children in the future, it seems that the overall public education curriculum and testing method must be changed. If an educational environment is created where children can learn English naturally rather than just study it, Koreans' English language skills will be able to improve.

In Korea, there is a program called ‘Teachers Please Ask for My Grades.’
For students who are worried about grades that are lower than their goals and whose scores do not improve no matter how much they study, Korea's best star instructors provide customized coaching for each challenging student. Although the coaching by Ilta instructors Jeong Seung-je and Jeong-sik Jeong, who appear in this program, is related to grades, it was helpful to think about study methods.
