The first way to learn English well with zero foundation in college
pronounce
Find a friend with standard pronunciation or go to a formal training class to solve the pronunciation problem, pronounce every pronunciation as standard as possible, and learn some basic linking rules, so that you can understand the word structure. Teachers who teach phonetic symbols usually teach you, and it may take you 2-3 months to lay a good foundation in this field. This is the most basic, and signing up for a class will not be too expensive. Maybe a few hundred dollars. There are also many related videos on the Internet, so you can look for them.
In the first grade, the teacher began to teach you to write, so English corresponds to remembering words.

memorize words
It is not difficult to recite the words in English textbooks before high school, even if it is zero-based. If you really can't remember some words, just copy them in the old way until you remember them. Now there are also various apps that recite words, which is very convenient. Words are the foundation of the whole study in the future, so we must work hard. Accumulate 300-500 words, of course, the more the better. By the way, next, we will publish an efficient way to remember word series.

read
Then you can start elementary reading. I recommend reading Bookworm published by FLTRP and Oxford University Press. Starting from the most elementary set of books, you only need 300 words to understand. Every book is a wonderful story, and it doesn't seem too difficult. And they are all very thin, only 10 pages. There are many other similar books on the Internet, as long as they are elementary. At first, you may not be used to reading English at all, which is normal. You can read a paragraph of Chinese and then look at the English part of that paragraph. Later, when you get used to it, you can gradually transition to giving up the Chinese part and reading English directly.
After getting used to primary reading, you can start to enter the original work. There is a lot of information in the original book. You can start with some simple books, such as the English version of The Little Prince. It's a good choice to read the original with Kindle. You can directly translate unfamiliar words on Kindle, and you can download many resources of the original book online. Many people also have recommendations in this regard, so you should search more. The most important thing to read the original is to have fun. When you see a word you don't know, skip it first. If you don't know half the words in a text, it means it's too difficult. Change books quickly. If you don't know 10, it's normal.
After reading 4-5 original books, you will get used to the English expression at this time. Maybe you can't write such a sentence, but your sense of language has been gradually established. The effect is that when you see an English passage, you can immediately see what it says.

aural comprehension
At the same time, we should start listening training every day to grind our ears, because the Chinese we hear every day should gradually change our ear habits. At this time, you can find some listening materials to practice listening. Find your favorite novels or VOA news and choose some dictation, one or two a day.
Download new concepts or other audio, and our resources section also has related resources (note that there are English sounds and American sounds). Choose one you like (English sound or American sound, only one can be chosen), and then start learning with it. You should try your best to imitate the pronunciation and intonation in audio. There are some places where you read and skim, so you should mark the text so that you can prepare in advance where you will read the mark. At first, I read the text, and then I followed it. Later, I became very skilled, so I stopped reading the text and listened to the audio. If your pronunciation, intonation, stress, light reading and even skimming can be synchronized with the audio, you will feel very smooth and feel that you have stepped on every step, and you will speak confidently. At this level, you can start the next article.
