Is it too late to start learning English from scratch at the age of thirty?

It is not too late to start learning English at the age of thirty. There are also many people who only start to study English diligently after they reach adulthood, such as Li Yang. After Li Yang was admitted to Lanzhou University in 1986, he took the English retake exam for two consecutive years. Two years later, Li Yang finally succeeded for the first time. After four months of brutal self-discipline, Li Yang recited more than a dozen original English books and blurted out , achieved a qualitative leap in English. After that, his English College Test Band 4 ranked second in the school. And in 1989, he founded an English speaking training class. This kicked off Li Yang’s Crazy English.

Li Yang is not an isolated case. There is also a middle-aged man, Professor Zhong Daolong, who went from "not understanding" to "translating" in a year and a half. He calls his learning method the "reverse English learning method."

Different from Li Yang’s blurting out and reciting methods, Professor Zhong Daolong emphasized the importance of listening. To learn Li Yang English, you can basically start learning as soon as you know the pronunciation and phonetic symbols. With a lot of recitation and input, you can get a certain amount of English input, and blurt out these contents and turn them into your own things, making every input of yours Transformed into output, it is actually more suitable for most English learners. Professor Zhong Daolong's learning method is more painful, because you have to rely on listening to improve your strength. Listening to a large amount of content can easily make people lose concentration and feel tired. So I recommend you Li Yang’s English learning method.

First of all, you need to master the standard pronunciation system. You can learn "Lai Shixiongmei Phonetic Symbols".

Second, after mastering the pronunciation system, it is still recommended that you have a certain foundation before starting to recite a lot. Therefore, it is recommended to recite "New Concept 1" first to improve your sense of language. After studying "New Concept 1", the grammar system has begun to be established.

Third, learn to recite "New Concept 2". This book can improve all your English grammar, so after reciting this book, you will find that all your English grammar is solved.

Fourth, start reciting a large number of original English works.

After the whole process, you can acquire good English pronunciation and blurt it out in one year or even less.

So, age should never be a hindrance to your learning, but should be a catalyst that encourages you to cherish your time and learn quickly. I wish you start a new journey on the road to learning English! ?
