How to speak English like a native speaker within 3 months

Museum of Knowledge students come to us to understand and take advantage of the techniques that will enable them to learn a language and really excel. In order to reach a high level of competency and to be able to speak English like a native within a set period of time, grammatical skills and syntax proficiency is key.

The Museum of Knowledge has developed a number of immersion courses that enable the language learner to practice speaking with a specific topic in mind. Audio downloads are also a feature of the Museum of Knowledge speaking module so that students can play back their session and therefore perfect their skills. Repetition and listening skills are also great enablers of perfecting English-speaking skills.

To reach a level of competency with the English language within three months requires a level of deep immersion and daily practice. There is no other way around it and unfortunately no real short cuts to this process. The Museum of Knowledge would suggest 3 hours a day of intensive practice with structured content for the full period of three months. Defining an objective is also incredibly important. If the objective is to reach a high level of competency for knowledge of the technology industry for advanced language learners or for intermediate language learners, the desire to reach a high level of fluency for topics covering travel or ordering in a restaurant, the student can attain these objectives though the museum’s structured programmes.

How to speak English without translating from your native tongue

One of the key issues and barriers some students face when they decide to learn a language is thinking in their native tongue instead of the target language, in this case, English. The Museum of Knowledge employs various immersion techniques that aim to prevent language learners from adopting bad habits.

If a language learner is constantly thinking in Chinese for example, translating from Chinese to English in their head before speaking or writing in English, then the language learner is not truly adopting the correct techniques. It is true to say that in order to speak English, one must think in English. It is also helpful that to speak Chinese, one must be thinking in Chinese as Chinese is the target language.

The ability to think in English is related to language exposure. The more a student is exposed to a language, the greater the awareness of phrases and vocabulary and therefore the ability to express these thoughts without thinking in the native tongue. Immersion techniques offered at the Museum of Knowledge enable students to gain high levels of exposure to the language they are learning. These include vocabulary and terminology exercises as well as games.

The greater the level of practice the student undertakes, the greater the exposure and therefore the less need a student will have to consistently think in another language when the reality is their goal is to speak English.
