Aprenda bem o Simples e fale corretamente Inglês sempre!
Olá! Sou Luciana, professora de Inglês e como mencionei na introdução deste blog, acho que muitos alunos fazem muita confusão com os tempos verbais, sem contar que na hora de falar, não conseguem porque não se lembram bem de cada um. Isso é um erro que a maioria comete.
Aqui estão alguns exemplos:
A melhor forma de aprender a falar efetivamente segundo a minha experiência:
- Procure ler livros que gosta em Inglês, talvez comece pelos mais fáceis, os infantis.
- Procure falar com algum nativo e mais importante não tenha vergonha de falar.
- Aprenda bem o Simple Present e o Present Continous.
- Aprenda preposições e artigos definitos e indefinidos.
- Aprenda o que puder de vocabulário. Tendo um conhecimento grande em palavras você pode se expressar.
