Learn English through surgery?

 

Learn English through surgery?

Many of us find excuses to put off studying languages, even claiming that we’re incapable of learning. Chances are, however, that all you need is the right curriculum and a little faith in yourself to learn English. Battle the following common excuses, and be victorious in your English study!

My tongue was formed wrong

English pronunciation is difficult, especially if your native language doesn’t use the same sounds. But most likely, your tongue is just fine, and you won’t need surgery to make your tongue longer and more flexible in order to speak English. Instead, study the basics of pronunciation, learn how to form your mouth, and listen and imitate the sounds of native speakers. Practice makes perfect!

I’m too old to learn

It’s true that you’re probably not at an optimal age for language learning – unless you’re under 10 years old – but it’s never too late! Many adults successfully master a language later in life, so don’t let your age hinder you.

I don’t have the time

Maybe you have a busy schedule, but everyone has a few minutes to spare every day. Have you considered studying at Englishtown where you can go to class any time you’re free in the comfort of your own home?

I’m not good at language learning

If that’s your excuse, maybe you just haven’t discovered your learning style. Each one of us learns best in different ways – some visually, others with music, and others in a tactile way. Try varying your studying methods to find the one that’s right for you.

I don’t have access to English teachers

As long as you have access to the Internet and a headset, you can contact English teachers! Englishtown has virtual classes that you can attend no matter where you are in the world.

People will laugh at me

Another benefit of online learning is that no one can see you, even if you make a mistake. However, no need to worry at all, because teachers at Englishtown are supportive, not critical of their students. Come to class to gain the confidence you need to speak English in the real world!

I can live without it

There was a time where knowing English was not a necessity. But as the world grows smaller and international business gets bigger, the need for English in nearly every field is growing. If this is your excuse, it may be time to re-examine your philosophy.
