How to teach yourself English? Do you want to start with memorizing words?
I am 48 years old. I have nothing to do after retirement, and I am also teaching myself English. My daughter went to the library to help me borrow children's books. First, I read them myself. If I don't know them, I will look them up in the dictionary.

Find me an original children's cartoon every week. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it once. Keep reading until you understand it. For example, "Kung Fu Panda" 1 the original version was read 20 times before I understood it. I'm glad I haven't read the translated version, Kung Fu Panda 2 and Kung Fu Panda 3 for five times and three times. Sure enough, there are elements of China in the original animation, which is easier to understand and more attractive.

Among animals, I like killer whales best, so my daughter helped me find the movie Willie 123, which is an old movie. These three movies seem ugly to me, and I can't remember how many times I have watched them. Anyway, I finally understand them. I find that children know a lot of English, while adults speak English quickly and often have slang, which is difficult to understand. Although there are English subtitles, I don't understand many paragraphs behind a word. I don't know what to say. I want to go back and watch it. Stop? My daughter won't let me use an interpreter, so I have to understand, guess and live by myself.

I also like cooking and buying vegetables. My daughter also found me English pictures of food. I find that learning English from what I like is the fastest and fastest, and people are very happy.

I also like watching A Christmas Story. My daughter also helped me find a child to watch. I also like fairy tales. My daughter also finds bible stories for me to read, but it is very difficult.

My daughter is willing to help me with my English. She said she couldn't speak when she was a child, and her mother took pains to teach her to speak again and again. For example, when she was one and a half years old, she couldn't pronounce the word "clothes", but she said that her mother taught her to say "clothes" again and again. When she was a child, we liked to video her.

I taught her to speak, and she was willing to help me with my English.

I also like to remember the names of all countries in the world, watch English programs about food, and try to record English recipes, among which salad is the simplest, and I like both cooking programs.

The fly in the ointment is that at my age, English is memorized and I forget too much.

So I think we adults should learn English by ourselves, without pressure, and start with what we like, so that we can get started faster and feel happier.
