English Learning Experience Survey
If you speak English as a second language, I’d love to hear from you! Feel free to comment or DM me. 🙂
—————————————————————————————
Hi there! I’m a student who also learns English as a second language, and I’m working on a school project focused on the experiences of others in similar situations. I’m interested in understanding how you’ve developed your English literacy. Here are a few questions I’d like to ask:
- Why are you learning English, or what motivated you to learn it?
- What methods did you use to learn English? (e.g., school classes, apps, informal methods like conversation, watching videos, or participating in online forums)
- What is your primary mode of communication in English? (spoken or written)
- Can you recall any specific assignments or tasks from your English education? If so, what were they?
- How did those assignments contribute to your English learning?
- Do you teach others English in any way? If so, how?
Thank you for your participation! Your insights will be invaluable to my project.
Hi there! I’d be happy to help with your survey. Here are my responses:
1. Why are you learning English?/ Why did you learn English?
I started learning English because I wanted to broaden my opportunities for education and work. English is a global language, and I felt it was essential for connecting with people from different cultures and accessing more information online.
2. How did you learn English?
I learned English through a combination of formal education and informal methods. I took classes in school and used language learning apps to practice. Additionally, I found watching English-speaking movies and TV shows very helpful. I also participated in online forums where English is the primary language.
3. What is the main way you communicate in English?
I primarily communicate in English through writing, especially in emails and messages, but I also engage in conversations with friends and colleagues when I can.
4. Do you remember specific assignments in your English education? If so, what were they?
Yes, I remember assignments where we had to write essays on different topics. There were also group projects where we had to present in front of the class. These helped me practice both my written and spoken English.
5. How did those assignments help you learn English?
The writing assignments allowed me to structure my thoughts in English and improve my vocabulary. Presenting in front of the class helped build my confidence in speaking and taught me how to articulate my ideas clearly.
6. How, if at all, do you teach other people English?
I occasionally help friends or younger students by practicing conversation with them and correcting their grammar when needed. I also encourage them to engage with English media like books, shows, or podcasts to enhance their learning.
I hope this helps with your project! Good luck!
