[Funland] CLB tiếng Anh - OF English Club (OFEC) 7 - Don't be shy, say to share...

[ChimBaoBaoTài khoản đã xác minh]

An english speaking club is a simple and effective way to improve speaking skill. However, to be effective, the session should not be a kind of sitting down and speaking anything comes into your mind, but should be a group discussion with pre-selected topic and a lead discussant. The members also need to be a kind of active and willing to discuss, not just smile and drink
If cụ resume the club, I'm in.

Well, in that case, we may need a class in stead of club

as i remember in my previous clubs (longtime ago), if no preparation and no pressure, about two third of participants will just seat and eat actually the lead discussant will be rolled over among all members, each member will have to select a topic, prepare talking points, and send to the club in advance so that other members can prepare their arguments, for or against.

Which E skills is important depends on you and your work. There are just two skills namely productive and receptive ones. In some cases you are silver-tongered so you are suitable to become an interpreter for example. In other cases you suit to be a translator instead.
Speaking E frequently does not help you in listening better but quite on the contrary.

I haven't affirmed that good speaking will lead to good listening?

Ar you wrong? I mean Frequent speaking, not Fluent Speaking.

Where to train speaking skill? Or some places where we can put our kids together and let them talk only in english?

 

[phamhoangtb]

In my opinion, listening is the most important skill to master English. If you are good at listening, you can talk, read and write effectively with ease.

I also full of support of the idea that we should have regular meetings for our members to share our views and practice speaking in ENGLISH. It is of course our kids/children can attend and play with each other.

Just take a look at your post dear.

You got it right. Theoretically, you speak what you have listened and you tend to write down what you have read, not the way round or else tou would sound weird.

Agreed! You got my vote too. I love the idea that we have a group of families who when together only converse in english. Can be anywhere, maybe some cafeteria etc... have a good time drink some beer and practice too!

I dont think serious / formal topics is a must for discussing and conversing. Experienced from our previous group ( Chim Bao Bao is one of the founders ) we always tried to make the atmosphere to be most comfortable to everyone and encourage all members to speak out all things they want/ can speak in E. Of course among us always have ... like a leader / guider to lead the discussion and to help the lower level in expressing their thought in English or translate from Vnese to Eng some words that the lower one doesn't know how to say in E. I myself had learnt a lot from those meetings as my level was improved gradually.

Agree!!!
Pre-selected topic will be great if all the members of the class/club have the same level. You see, it is imposible/or you have to have the entrance test and group them together by level.
My experience, free talk is more comfortable and it works well with active-person. Let them talk first!

It's probably not beyond your ability, just because you are setting a limit for yourself

We used to sit down, enjoyed our drinks, talked about ourselves, our lives... in English and English only when we established this CLUB. However, due to many reasons including an event where a founder, a former and the first admin of this Otofun forum has passed away so the coffee session has ended. If around 10 members interested in resuming the session, I would be happy to callout for another session for us

This sound is so great.
I live in Hanoi and I would love to join.
I am in.

 

[Thuy TranThi]

I do like joining club as Chimbaobao recommends.
I also think that we shouldn't set a topic for every offline session. Take it easy to talk about everything which make you harmonize with that atmosphere.

Just pay so much attention on how we can improve English. Could we exchange any topics aound our life.

Today I'm not in a good mood. Some days ago, I had a violent arguments with my wife. I wish I could be back to my youth, I should have made better choice, not be miserable like now.

You both had better dialogue frankly with each other. Family life has never been simple. Conflicts can occur at any time.

I am sure that all families are the same, not separately yours. Try best as you can.
Have fun!

Thanks for your comment. There are many things around us. Just focus on English is a little rough I suppose. We can tell anything, and try to make our brain thinking in English.

Yeah, you're right. Everyone has their own lives, may be happy or sad. And whatever happens we try my best to get over.
