Shauna: 我在过去的六年中，不断收到英语学习者关于他们最大挑战的反馈，主要集中在三个方面：缺乏练习对象、记不住学过的词汇以及害羞。学习英语，心态很重要，积极的心态能帮助学习，消极的心态则会阻碍学习。学习外语会让人感到脆弱，但每个人都会经历这个阶段，不必自责。 首先，要大量进行英语听力练习，这有助于提高发音、听力理解能力和词汇量。其次，即使没有练习对象，也要大声朗读练习口语，锻炼大脑和口腔肌肉。练习时，可以尝试与自己对话，或者对着镜子练习发音，这有助于提高自我意识和自信心。 第三，录音练习可以帮助追踪学习进度，提升自我意识，并增强自信心。通过录音，你可以了解自己的真实发音，发现并纠正错误，并追踪自己的进步。第四，参加在线英语课程可以提供纪律、动力和固定的学习时间，帮助提高口语水平。一个好的老师可以提供专业的指导和鼓励，让你更有动力坚持学习。 最后，要抓住机会，在5秒内开始说英语，避免犹豫不决导致焦虑。犹豫会加剧恐惧，而快速开口可以帮助你克服焦虑，训练大脑快速反应。在日常生活中，可以尝试与陌生人进行简单的英语交流，例如在咖啡店或杂货店。 总而言之，学习英语口语需要一个循序渐进的过程，要平衡输入（听、读）和输出（说、写），并坚持练习，才能取得进步。要评估自己每周或每月实际说英语的时间，并根据实际情况增加练习量。犯错是学习过程的一部分，要保持积极的心态，享受学习的过程。
