乾脆直接出國唸語言學校,還是要考到雅思標準分數?




很多學生放棄考到學校要求的語言成績,直接選擇出國唸語言學校,但每年在國外念書念得苦不堪言、拼命跟我求救的,都是之前放棄準備雅思而選擇捷徑的那些同學。
同學阿,如果你願意花這麼多錢去國外進修,為什麼不肯先花一些時間把基本功練好再出國呢?

我們來細數一下,沒有基本功就出國,可能會發生的狀況劇是什麼:

1.在國外上課時聽不懂課堂討論、抓不到上課重點

2.不論在任何地方任何情境,閱讀時有閱讀障礙,看不懂說明也看不懂告示牌


3.交的論文沒有正確的文章結構,不知道怎麼寫主題句,滿是文法問題


4.上堂報告或小組討論,總是因為英文不好而詞不達意,插不上話


5.大家一起出去遊玩時,聽不懂別人說的笑話,只能假裝了解,陪笑


6.感覺自己被歧視,其實是因為英文表達詞不達意,別人沒有耐心聽完

你現在靜下心來仔細想想,這真的是你想得到的學習嗎? 這樣真的有出國念書的價值嗎?

Students who fail to reach their IELTS test minimum requirement may face several obstacles when they study abroad, including:

1. Difficulty in understanding and communicating with others:
Students who struggle with English language proficiency may find it challenging to understand and communicate with others, both inside and outside the classroom. This can impact their ability to form relationships with classmates, professors, and local residents.

2. Difficulty in keeping up with curriculum: Students who struggle with English may also have trouble keeping up with coursework and assignments, particularly in subjects that require extensive reading, writing, and analysis. This can result in lower grades and a lack of engagement in class.

3. Culture shock: Students who are not proficient in English may experience greater culture shock when studying abroad, as they may find it difficult to understand cultural norms and customs. This can impact their ability to adapt to the new environment and feel comfortable in their surroundings. 

4. There is no guarantee that students who fail to reach their IELTS test minimum requirement will pass the exam after taking pre-sessional English courses, and if they do not pass, they may not be able to obtain their master's degree.

Therefore, it is important for students to be prepared and proficient in English language skills before studying abroad to ensure a successful and enjoyable experience. This can be achieved through tailored English instruction provided by reputable language schools or tutors who can provide tailored instruction to improve their English proficiency before studying abroad.

學英文最重要的是興趣和效率,不是死記考試技巧和背句子單字,與其花那麼多錢到國外當冤大頭又面臨各式各樣的學習與生活問題,不如在台灣把英文學好(至少先打好基本功吧!),等到真的能溝通再出國,這樣才能真正體驗國外生的樂趣。
