Regarding learn English ways
As we know that lots of people in China are learning English. I am also one of them.
In China, most of the time, the parents and the teachers encouraged the children to speak to the foreigners to practice their English. I admit that it is a good way to learn the language by communicating with the local people. For example, practice in the English corner or making friends with foreign people.
But some times, the teacher and the parents will tell the children to speak to the foreign people whenever they meet the foreign people. I don’t think this is the best way to encourage the children to learn the foreign language. I think we should consider other people, especially the forign people. Maybe sometimes they don’t want to be disturbed or maybe they want to have their own space.
So i think we should choose the right time or people to practice our foreign language.

A lot of parents in Korea want their children to learn English as well. Speaking English is such an honor and is so highly praised in this country. However, I go to and international school, and most of the students are Korean-American, so when we go around speaking English in public, parents and other Korean natives get angry. They say we are a disgrace to the country, and that we should be speaking Korean because we are Koreans. I don’t really get it … parents want their kids to be fluent English speakers … but when they meet other children who are fluent English speakers, they condemn them? Strange. Is it also like this where you live?
