Vocational English as a Second Language

 

Tips to Learn to Speak English Fluently

The fastest way to improve one’s fluency is to immerse oneself totally in the English language. Speak English in an English-speaking environment. This means that you manage all your daily activities in English, not your native language. You could study at a great vocational school like Interactive College of Technology to learn both English and the vocational skill of your choice.

Language students understandably feel uncomfortable using their second language because they may not know it as well. When learning English as a second language, the student must work hard and practice their new language. Perhaps a listener won’t have as much patience as you need. That’s okay. You still need to practice. Don’t worry. Learning to speak a new language is not easy but speaking is the best way to become fluent.

There is no substitute for learning by speaking. If you are going to learn, speaking is a requirement. And, as you begin to “just do it” as they say, it gets easier. It is practice that makes perfect. Therefore, try to practice speaking on a daily basis.

 

What is a VESL Teacher?

The primary role of VESL teachers is to teach the English grammar, sentence structure and pronunciation in addition to the four core skills. In the VESL class, students come from diverse cultural backgrounds, and speak different languages. However, irrespective of their mother tongue, they all learn the target language in English. The teacher may or may not speak a second language, but it is not relevant to the VESL classroom. Being bilingual can certainly be advantageous, particularly when it comes to explaining difficult grammatical rules and concepts. Nonetheless, bilingual abilities are not mandatory in the VESL classroom.

The VESL teacher is tasked with aiding comprehension even when the student is perplexed. A bilingual teacher could use their second language skills to help their students understand complex grammatical rules. It would fall short, however, because several languages will be spoken among the students and the teacher would not be able to help everyone in their mother tongue. So, classroom activities may be limited because of this. However, with consistent instruction and practice, the student will be able to acquire a good, working knowledge of the English language.

You can also use English when you don’t have anyone around to listen. Start identifying things in your environment in English and make up sentences about your activities.

 

How Can I Learn English in Houston?

To begin learning English, Interactive College of Technology offers a live online VESL program. Our Vocational English as a Second Language programs combine teaching, lab, class discussion, and group activities to help comprehend English for non-native speakers. Each method helps with both he English language skills as well as cultural transference.

 

Is an ESL Program in Houston Right For You?

Perhaps your knowledge of basic English is not savvy enough to apply for the position you want. Maybe you are stuck in a dead-end job because the position you want requires English fluency. Yet, you are not yet proficient in the English language. Could it be that you would like to change your career altogether? If you answered “yes” to any of the above, you should reach out to our institution for further information.
