ENTRANCE:By the end of the 20th century, English had finally established itself as a world language. Today, the ability to know foreign languages is becoming one of the integral parts of professional education. Due to the high rate of cooperation with foreign partners among specialists in various fields, there is a high demand for them to learn the language. In modern society, foreign languages are becoming an important component of professional education. People learn such knowledge first at school, college, high school, and then at institutes, training courses or independently by getting acquainted with the basic information sets that help to learn a foreign language.
LITERATURE ANALYSIS AND METHODS
Popular methods of teaching and learning English and Internet resources were used in the research process. During the writing of the article, the principles of theoretical deductive conclusion, analysis and synthesis, logicality were used.
Today, many language courses are held for two hours one or two days a week, which is not good for us. Because on other days we are busy with daily chores. Usually, before the lesson, he forgets the topics of the previous lesson, which slows down the learning process. When we learn any foreign language, it should be studied and repeated daily. Only then the learning process will be much faster. First of all, we must make a commitment to ourselves. For example, “I spend two hours studying English every day, regardless of the situation!” Then our recall results will increase dramatically. Many people say that they should do this method, but they do not do it in practice. We have to adapt ourselves to this day’s training. Only then can we achieve the desired result. Type of abilities.
Linguists have divided the study of the English language into four major directions;
-Reading is the ability to read and understand a text in a foreign language.
-Hearing (listening) is the ability to hear and understand the chat language.
-Writing-the ability to write in a foreign language.
Speaking is the ability to express one’s thoughts and ideas in a foreign language.
In order to achieve this, it is important to master the three most necessary things. These are: grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation.
1. Learning grammar will definitely not be easy for a child. Whether we like it or not, the most difficult part of learning a language is grammar. We often observe that most people focus on memorizing rules when learning grammar. Memorizing the rules does not mean learning grammar. Unfortunately, there are many such people. They know the rules of grammar and phonetics of a foreign language by heart, but they cannot make a more complicated sentence in the language. You don’t have to memorize all the rules, just memorize the most used ones. Once you have memorized all the rules, you will only apply 30% of them. You don’t use the rest. This can cause you various boredom and confusion. Repeat what you have learned every day and build on them simple and then more complex sentences. In a simple sentence, it mainly consists of possessor + participle + complement.
2. Vocabulary memorization.
Even in this process, memorizing yourself for years is a wrong method. I used to memorize 10 words a day. The problem is that I could not use these when I spoke in English, I almost did not use such words. This did not give any results.
We have the concepts of “Active vocabulary” and “Passive vocabulary” for this. To summarize, you can use the words in “active vocabulary” without any problems. You can use them without any difficulties. But it If the words fall into the “passive vocabulary”, you can remember the word only by seeing or hearing it briefly. The words in the passive vocabulary are very dangerous. There is a possibility that the words will be forgotten. For this, we can save the words from the “active vocabulary” and transfer the words from the “passive vocabulary” to the “active vocabulary”. We need to translate all the unfamiliar words in the movies or videos and pay attention to their pronunciation.
3. Pronunciation.
Every language has its own pronunciation. Nowadays, technical progress has developed. This is why we all have access to mass media.
If we listen to different English movies and English songs, our pronunciation will improve a lot. Another way is to use it for another purpose when listening to a song in a foreign language. Find the lyrics of your favorite song in a foreign language and translate it into your language using a dictionary. Or work a lot with English lyrics so that you can mark and translate unfamiliar words. Then you translate the unfamiliar words that cover that text from English to your own language without looking at the translation. Then you will remember them and know when to use them. Another useful way is to listen to native speakers and have conversations with them. Nowadays, we all have the opportunity to communicate online. . That is, we can use this to communicate with native speakers and get various information to improve our pronunciation.
I would like to give some more incentives for us to learn English quickly and effectively.
Define the goal clearly.
If you have to do anything, especially in language learning, it is not for success. Therefore, think about what you want to learn English for. Nowadays, many people are going to learn a language without being interested in the opinion of their family or others. First of all, you should have an interest and a goal. For example, after learning English, I will enter the world languages university as the first grant, “I will enter the University of Westminster on a grand basis” or “I will go abroad to study and work in high positions”, and “I will open new campaigns in cooperation with foreign countries.” “, you can set a goal. Do not forget that the more serious the goal, the faster and more effective language learning will be.
Language is based on repetition.
A language cannot be learned without constant repetition. You can memorize 15 new words a day, but if you do not repeat these words after 2-3 days, it is natural that they will be forgotten. For this, you can effectively use the places where your eyes fall the most. Personally, I stick my newly learned words on a small piece of paper or on various stacks on the door of my room and on my desk.
Communication.
Language is a means of communication. We all know that communication plays an important role in language learning. Go to Speaking Clubs at study centers or resource centres. Never be shy to speak even if you are not fluent yet. The one who tries to speak, even if he does not know the language better, wins than the one who is shy to participate in conversations. Never be shy to speak in general, keep speaking even if you make mistakes.
Or you can find a partner for constant training. Another advantage is that this method creates a unique competitive environment among partners. For example, you try to memorize in order not to fall behind your partner.
Adapt the language learning process to your daily life.
When learning a language, fit everything into your daily life. For example, if you go to the institute or school by bus every day, you will lose at least 30-35 minutes of your time. You can use this time effectively. You can listen to various exercises or audios to develop Listening Comprehension.
Use your smartphone correctly and effectively, you should use easy methods to learn quickly in the process of language learning. Your smartphone will help you with this. Using your smartphone, you can download free English language learning programs and use them without attending paid courses. You can also watch various English movies with subtitles.
The main reasons for this are the natural tendency of children to learn languages, the fact that they have a strong ability to imitate, and the fact that children have more time than adults. It should be noted that 6-7-year-old children do not understand the meaning of information, but memorize it mechanically. Therefore, it is necessary not to start teaching English to elementary school students with grammatical concepts. Otherwise, from the first step of teaching a foreign language, it is possible to strain the child and extinguish his interest. Therefore, teaching a foreign language to young children is very difficult and responsible. The following methods can be used to teach children English in a meaningful and interesting way
-To teach by means of songs and poems the letters or combinations that are difficult to explain or remember, that do not have meaning.
For example, it can be shown that children learning the English alphabet by singing is more effective than just memorizing. – games related to mental and physical activities;
-Cartoons;
While children do not understand the words in the cartoon during language learning, they try to understand the words they use through the actions of the cartoon characters. This is an interesting and effective way for children to learn the language.
– role play, the teacher should role-play or play it to children while teaching some information, for example, the names of animals or birds. For example: one student shows a dog howling, a cat meowing, another student can show which animal these sounds are.
– subject environment;
Children learn the language better if the teacher can create that environment depending on the subject. For example: traveling, birthday, in the kitchen, etc. On the topic of traveling, the teacher organizes a trip, information about the importance of traveling (foot, bicycle, automobile, train, boat, airplane), where to travel (Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara, England, USA) will give. This situation strengthens the students’ vocabulary, language abilities, and expands their worldview.
RESEARCH RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Children have a strong interest in finding answers to riddles. Therefore, when the teacher says the riddle in English or Uzbek, he should ask the children to say the answer in English. Then children learn words quickly.
Practical training (tasting fruits and other foods, smelling flowers); This sentence can be explained by the thoughts of a practicing psychologist: “The pedagogue, who wants something to be firmly fixed in the children’s memory, should use as many of the child’s sensory organs as possible: eyes, ears, sound organs, muscle sensations, and even if if possible, he should try to involve the sense of smell and taste in the process of remembering”. For example: when a student tastes an apple, its color is red or green, He should give information about whether it is sweet (tasty) or big (small), and after feeding other students, he should ask the children to give information about that fruit in English If the teacher asks the students the English name of the colors, the child will immediately remember that they are red-red and green-green. Ensures that information is kept in memory for a long time. – through gestures, facial expressions; When the teacher says something to the child or gives an order, for example, it is understandable to the child if he uses gestures in sentences such as come here, open the book, stand up, look at the blackboard. .
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTIONS
In conclusion, it should be said that teaching a modern language is aimed at forming a more cultured person, who has the skills of self-analysis and systematization of new knowledge. Innovative methods are an integral part of the modernization of the entire system. This ensures that teachers can familiarize themselves with the most advanced approaches and then integrate them and use them in their work to achieve significant growth in the education system. Many organizations are moving to a new level by using multimedia capabilities to send and receive information. The use of computers and other devices determines the success of the entire educational process. Speech skills in the trainings held during the educational process. Sufficient attention should be paid to formation and development of social flexibility. In addition, the success of each lesson in education largely depends on the correct organization of the training. The lesson should be based on the creative cooperation of the teacher and the student. Only then will students be able to think independently and will be educated. Learning English is not easy. It requires you to set a clear goal, constantly repeat new words, communicate without shame when you have the opportunity, adapt the process of learning English to your life, and finally, use technology effectively.
