Learning English


I have read a book about learning English. The book is called 'A Language Lover's guide to English'. It is written by Siu Sir. I would like to recommand this book to Hong Kong secondary school students.

This book is biliterate, i.e. it is written in English and Chinese. It is easy to understand. The examples he uses are autentic and close to young people. It has five different sections: the attitude of learning English; reading and writing; listening and speaking; grammar; English that you cannot learn in class. The writer also shares his experiences in learning English at the end of the book.

I recommanded this book because I strongly agreed with what the writer talks about the attutide of learning English. I will talk about it next time.
