What is the best way to learn english without going to school?

We Answered:

Submersion in a language is vital to learning a language. Simply put, this means you need to surround yourself with the best possible grammar, a large variety of words, some slang, and you need to start thinking in that language, rather than translating.

Thinking rather than translating means that, now you're just taking an English word and you're translating it to your native language. That works great when you begin, but it makes grammar very diffecult.

English is an extremely complicated language to learn. We have quite a few grammar rules and the best way to blend-in, is to learn those grammar rules. You do that by thinking in english, rather than translating. That's what I mean by submersion.

This is why natives to Canada spend most of their time as children taking English classes. Keep in mind, children's brains are more adaptable, because their short-term memory and neo-cortex (the part of the brain responsible for verbal-language), overlap their long-term memory until they're about 6-years-old. After that, the brain gets bigger and bigger, and those two parts of the brain grow further and further apart. The further apart, the longer the distance the information has to travel. This means that we may forget things while it's traveling. This is why we describe a child's mind as a sponge. They literally absorb everything they attempt to learn. As adults, we don't have that ability. We have a few dry spots in between and some things get lost. So we need to try even harder to submerse ourselves.

Your english is actually very good. I'm impressed. I can read your accent, but it's actually very good. You even used the contractions "I've", "don't" and "haven't" properly. You're using the punctuation properly too.

What is the most effective way to learn English?

Your name suggests you are Chinese. In my experience different mother tongues encounter different challenges when learning English.
One thing that helps with pronunciation is watching unscripted and linguistically unchallenging TV programmes such as game shows e.g. 'Who Wants To Be a Millionaire' there are plenty of excerpts on YouTube. There are lots of silences which give you time to replay in your mind the words you have just heard.

Is it harder for Latinos to learn english in high schools than for any other non-american individual?

We Answered:

I don't know why it would be any harder or easier for Latinos as a group to learn English than it is for anyone else.

The details of your question look like perhaps you're trying to get to the issue of bilingual education and the debate about English-only classes, but I'm not sure. The second question you ask (about things being "laid out in front of them) is not clear.
