Improving your motivation for learning English
In this article, we share our techniques for improving your motivation for learning English as a foreign language. We used them all the time when we were learning English and we still use them when we need to boost our motivation in areas other than English.
Imagine yourself in the future
Imagine you can talk to native speakers just like you talk in your first language. Imagine other people wanting to speak English as well as you do. Imagine the possibility of writing e-mail to people from all over the world.
It is helpful to read an article about the advantages of knowing English well. You should know that it is possible to learn English really well. Just look at other people who have done it.
Remember that you are already good
You already know some English (you're reading an article in English right now). That's a big success! Now it's time for more successes. Time to start using powerful methods of effective learning. Time to gain an impressive knowledge of English.
Remember there is a lot that you don't know
You are good, but your English probably isn't perfect. You probably can't understand English-language TV, read books in English, talk to native speakers easily, write letters without mistakes, etc.
You should never think your English is perfect. Even if you are the best student in your class, always try to find your weak areas and work on them. When you've learned to speak English well, your problems will be quite small: punctuation, rarely used grammar structures, rare words, understanding "street language". Right now, your problems are probably more basic: mistakes in pronunciation, small vocabulary, grammar problems with the present perfect tense and conditional structures.
Use your English whenever you can
This is very, very important. The more you use English, the more you will want to learn it.
Because English is so popular, you can use it everywhere. You can use Google to find English-language websites with interesting information, you can watch American cartoons, you can play adventure games on your computer, you can read interesting books in English, or you can do other things that we write about.
If you do these things, you will not only have fun and learn English. If you see that a new English word lets you understand your favorite TV show (or communicate with people, or beat a computer game), you will want to learn more words. So you will learn English more, use it more, learn it more, use it more... If you also use effective learning methods, your English will grow faster than you can imagine.
怎样喜爱学习英语
提高你学习英语的动机
在这篇文章中，我们来分享一下如何提高将英语作为一门外语来学习的动机的方法。当我们学习英语的时候，我们一直在使用这些方法，而且当我们需要提高除英语以外其它领域的学习动机时，我们也使用着这些方法。
想象未来的你
想象你可以与以英语为本土语言的人谈话就如同与别人说自己的母语一样。想象其他人就像你一样也想用英语谈话。想象给世界各地的人写电子邮件的可能性。
读一篇关于对英语有很好的了解的优势的文章是很有帮助的。你应该知道真正地学好英语是可能的。可以看看其他曾经这样做的人。
记住你自己已经很好了
你已经了解了一些英语了(你现在就在读一篇英文文章)。这是个很大的成功!现在是获得更大成功的时候了!是开始使用有效的学习方法的时候了。是获得给人印象深刻的英语知识的时间了。
记住你还有很多不懂的东西
你现在很不错，但是你的英语很有可能达不到非常出色的程度。你很可能还听不懂英语电视节目，读不懂英语书，不能很容易地与以英语为母语的人谈话，不能没有丝毫错误地写英文信，等等。
你应该永远也不要认为你的英语非常出色。即使你是班里最好的学生，也要经常努力去发现你的弱势并且多下功夫。当你已经学说英语并且成绩不错时，你的问题就小多了：标点符号，很少被使用的语法结构，不常见的单词，理解“街道语言”，现在，你的问题很可能就更基础了：发音上的错误，小的词汇量，带有现在完成时和条件结构从句的语法问题。
只要你能就尽量用英语
这是非常，非常重要的。你使用的英语越多，你就会越想学习英语。
因为英语是如此流行，你在任何地方都可以使用它。你可以使用Google(一个网站的搜索引擎)去搜索那些有有趣信息的英语网站，你可以看美国卡通，你可以用电脑玩冒险游戏，你可以读有趣的英文书，或者你还可以做其他我们所涉及到的事情。
如果你做这些事，你将不仅仅获得乐趣和对英语的学习。如果你发现一个新的英文单词使你理解了你最下的电视节目(或者是与人们交往，或者是玩一个电脑游戏)，你就会想学到更多的单词。因此你将要学习更多的英语，更多地使用英语，再更多地学习它，再更多地使用它……如果你还使用有效的学习方法，你的英语水平将会进步很快，甚至超乎你的想象。
