Their spirit is worth giving credit to, but their method is wrong. Learn English in 8 days? Come on ... I've been doing English for 20 damn years and my English is still flawed as ever
Li Yang is a genius! He understands the importance of English-speaking people being examples for young Chinese students to learn from. I so appreciate having been a part of this process in 2006.
More open minded? They're learning a foreign language during their spare time! How much more open minded can they be? I got nothing but mad respect for the people of China. In America we don't learn another language because more foreigners are going to come to visit, we pass laws to kick their asses out! Hahahaha. No wonder China is going to be a super power, the adapt to anything. Good for them.
They learn faster because they are Chinese... because Life is not that easy for them and they really want to learn... it's like LIFE or DEATH! They aren't lazies like most of the other students...
Where is Li Yang come from? His English is excellent. Many of my business friends told me that to do business with China and communicating in English is much easier in do that in Japan despite that Japan is more developed country.
such method would not work, it ignores grammar. so it's detrimental to any students who want to master another language. we also noticed that Mr Li was not articulate when he spoke to the reporters.
Mr Li is not that good, I was in his lesson one time and all he was doing was repeating simple phrases over and over again and I ended up only being able to memorise fragments of sentences instead of speaking useful stuff!
It's an interesting approach. As a former EFL teacher myself, I find it fascinating. There are many students around the world that learn the grammar of English and even how to speak some of the language, but are horribly reliant on their electronic dictionaries. I'd love to see a solid study on how well Mr. Li's methods work.
bet half of the people here end up here cus of TEFL Newsletter. lol
