Gostaria de começar um novo tópico no blog, para aqueles que desejam iniciar e/ou continuar a jornada como aprendiz em Língua Inglesa. Digo que isto serviria não para aqueles começam, pois a maioria dessas dicas são voltadas para a mudança de pensamento (mindset).  MINDSET Se livre de crenças limitantes do tipo "não consigo aprender", "inglês é muito difícil" e vários outros NÃOS! Reflita sobre seus objetivos para aprender inglês, quanto mais forte e claro o objetivo mais fácil será construir um plano e segui-lo.  Não se compare com os outros,cada pessoa está seguindo sua própria jornada. Alguns puderam estudar em escola particular ou foram para a Disney quando crianças, outros aprenderam com músicas, seriados ou videogame.  Não faça julgamento de valor quanto a pronúncia, escrita, ou outras habilidades de outra pessoa. Se você sabe, e se houver abertura se ofereça para ajudar a pessoa e reforçar seu aprendizado ativamente.  xoxo Wanderlust so
