I've been paying more attention to Mr. Vinod Kaliyath's blog, “Think in English,” recently. In the chapters of this blog, I found a scientific approach to acquiring English language skills. Vinod Sir has adopted an effective approach by including 40 English sentences that help learners understand the most basic patterns in English.
The way one learns is a crucial aspect of the teaching-learning process. Only a teacher who comprehends the depths of teaching can explain how to advance the learning process in a scientific manner. We see such a teacher in Vinod Sir through his blog.
When we observe the most basic pattern of the 7-English questions section, we see that he provides various examples:
Am I writing clearly?
Have I written clearly?
Was I writing clearly?
Will I write clearly?
Can I write clearly?
He clearly demonstrates the differences in verb usage across different sentences. The examples continue in this manner.
Vinod Sir's method is effective for language learners to gain competence.
That's precisely why we should encourage the efforts of writers like Vinod Sir. He has also written a book on English language learning. All the best in his pursuits.
