Fixing mistakes 2....


Old version:

"Never imagined learning English like this!"
At first, the video seemed to be a fun one (wrong expression). When you have a look at it, it's quite strange, but the important thing is that it makes you think quite a lot!! What learning strategies can it have (style)? Maybe see (wf) English in real context, but I don’t see the point of repeating by heart. I think repetition can help you pronounce better but not learn English in terms of language use. Maybe it helps you recognise grammar structures, chunks or collocations, but what about the work out of the girls? Maybe using your body while repeating something motivates the brain to retain information or speaking English and working out may be a rather fun way to learn. However, I think I've got an idea, maybe people can associate words with physical movements and then make a movement and remember a word, structure, or the pronunciation of a certain sound. But to be honest, I still don’t see a really useful strategy to learn English (something missing), but I’ll keep on (unnecessary word) thinking about it! This video has been a whole challenge, hasn’t it? ha-ha-ha.
