對于中國孩子來說，學習英語最大的障礙就在于語言環境了。其實，所有非母語的學習者都會面臨這樣的問題。所以我們要盡量營造一個百分百的英語氛圍，讓孩子充分浸潤其中，事半功倍地達到學習的效果。以下是幼兒教育專家提出的一些實戰建議，對自己啟蒙的爸爸媽媽或是學校的老師們都適用哦!

　　1.

　　Have in your learning area something to see, to hear or to touch. For example, there could be a poster of London, an English song they know and an English toy or statuette.

　　在學習區域放置可以刺激各種感官的道具，比如倫敦的標牌，播放孩子熟悉的音樂，放置英倫風的玩具或模型等，營造英語氛圍。

　　2.

　　Have in your room a message like ' We speak English here', 'English only', or 'English spoken', so that the kids will easily see them when they look down or look up.

　　在房間里張貼標牌，寫明“請說英語”或類似的字樣，讓孩子很容易看到。

　　3.

　　Create a specific English-speaking location, e.g. 'This is Liverpool. It is the Football Match today between Liverpool and Manchester United'. This could be written or said. Thus the room becomes Liverpool and you and the kids become Liverpudlians.

　　設定一個說英語的特定場景，比如“這里是利物浦。今天是利物浦隊和曼聯的足球比賽。”可以用標語的形式張貼出來，也可以用廣播的形式播放出來。這樣這個房間就變成了利物浦，而你和孩子就成了利物浦人。

　　4.

　　Give rewards for speaking English, e.g. smile, make eye contact, nod encouragement and understanding, touch, give praise and applause.

　　對說英語的行為設置小小的獎勵，比如微笑、眼神接觸、點頭表示鼓勵和理解，撫摸，稱贊和鼓掌等等。

　　5.

　　Give 'punishments' for speaking Chinese, e.g. frown, look away, step back, pretend not to undertand.

　　如果不小心說了中文，要進行“懲罰”，比如皺眉、不看他、向后退、假裝聽不懂等。

　　6.

　　Agree a system of fines for speaking Chinese. The fines could be coins or just matchsticks. But make sure that you must pay a fine too if you speak Chinese. After a period of time decide with the kids (in English) how you will spend the money.

　　商定一個說中文的“罰金”制度。罰金可以用錢幣也可以用火柴棍代替。但是記住即使你說了中文也要罰款的。過一段時間就和孩子一起商量(用英語)該怎樣花這筆錢。

　　7.

　　Sometimes it might be difficult for the children to concentrate, then just stop and start a 'compulsory talking' in Chinese for exactly one minute. At the last second yell 'Stop', then say 'Can we all speak English for the next five minutes?' and go on with your topic.

　　有時孩子可能很難堅持或集中注意力，那么就馬上停下來，給一分鐘的說中文的時間。到最后一秒時叫停，建議“接下來十分鐘我們要說英語了哦”，再繼續原來的話題。

　　8.

　　Set a recorder and microphone recording what you are saying. The children will be happy to see what has happened.

　　用一臺錄音或錄像設備把整個過程錄下來。孩子們會很樂于看到有關自己的回放。
