English is an important language owing to the fact that it is an international language, plays a vital role in helping to develop the fields of economy, education, politics, tourism and used by many countries. Specifically, more than 1 billion people in the world speak English, although only about 380 million people use this language as their mother tongue. Therefore, many countries have used this language as a second language. Singapore, India, Philippines or Malaysia are all the first countries in Asia speak English as a second language. In Vietnam, English is taught as a second language in system schools. From elementary school, children learn English until high school. English is widely communicated in all provinces, from North to South, from rural to urban areas, students have access to English.
In many studies, foreign language education at different ages has different effects. According to Cameron: "The younger learners are those between the ages of five and twelve, so the age of the younger learners is in elementary school. " According to the data given in the table, the student is 8 years old, so this person is a young learner. Young learners are easy to get bored with studying, only focusing on problems for 5-10 minutes. They want to explore things, like to imitate, have a rich imagination. Not only do they like exciting activities, but they are also easily attracted by colorful images.
Learner in the data is given in the table with learning styles: visual, kinaesthetic and individual. Learning styles are the ways in which a learner naturally prefers to take in, process and remember information and skills. (52-TKT) “Visual learning style is the learner learns best through seeing” (52-TKT). “The visual learning style is fairly self-explanatory. It’s all about seeing things in order to learn them. This can take many forms, from spatial awareness, colors and tones, brightness and contrast, and other visual information. ” https: //www. wgu. edu/blog/visual-learning-style-strategies2007. html#close. For example, learners will like lectures with lots of pictures, graphics, drawings. People will prioritize looking at something above all else, like color, shape, size, which attracts them. “Kinaesthetic learning style is the learner learns best through using the body”. (52-TKT). It means that kinesthetic learning styles is a method of learner based on moving, touching or practicing. Learners have to touch everything, are also well coordinated, like to make things with their hands, enjoy most doing sports than reading a book, have the necessity of practice a new thing that has learnt before. “Individual learning style is the learner learns best through working alone” (52-TKT). This means that learners do not like to work in groups, these people will prefer to work alone, self-study, do-it-yourself, self-thinking will be more effective than working together.
“Motivation is the thoughts and feelings we have which make us want to do something, continue to want to do it and turn our wishes into action” (38-TKT). Motivation plays a vital role in language studying. The better motivation you have, the more successful you will be. His/ Her motivation for learning English is “likes English songs and cartoons, likes animals”. This really makes it easier for his/her to learn English. There are plenty of resources on the internet on this subject. Moreover, his/ her reason to learn English comes from love and passion, which will help him/ her to volunteer and he/ she will not be under too much pressure when learning English.
From the topic, it can be seen that this learner is young learner (8 years ols), belong to visual, kinaesthetic and individual learning style, has motivation for learning English is “likes English songs and cartoons, likes animals”. I come up with some ways that I can teach him/her.
Measures can be applied such as slideshows of photos, paintings, short films about animals, cartoons, English songs, and eye-catching lesson designs. Organizing active games and assigning homework are also options to consider. Give him/her instructions and documents to she/he can do it himselves/herselves, let him/her do everything with his/her hands and she/he will remember them. I should organize activities that usually take no more than ten minutes to complete. If more than that time, he/she will easily get bored and uninterested. Content must be interesting and motivating. The topics of the activities should focus on the students' daily, accessible lives. Ideally, the classroom should be brightly colored and spacious enough to be able to move around without any hindrance. Children should work in groups and activities should take place in an atmosphere of tension and anxiety.
