For math, English, and similar subjects, we each had a book for our level. We read classic literature and comics, wrote book reports, built tree h

She
15、 makes sure she understands a passage before memorizing it, and then uses it to dialogues with herself, creating new sentences in imagined situations. Until meeting some foreign friends at a local church last year, she could only practice speaking with herself, but because of her constant listening,
16、 her accent is very natural. She chats intelligently in English, and its hard to believe she hasnt had a university education.Richards StoryA year ago, Richard was painfully shy, and shorter and weaker than his classmates who often bullied him. He only slept five hours a night because of schoolwork, and had nightmares about ghosts and failing classes. Learning to speak English confidently seemed impossible.Then h
