Please help me to improve the listening of English
As a Chinese person,I think it was a bit difficult to learn a new language. Because I think Chinese is different from almost all the languages. You know that, in almost all the language, you could knew the pronunciation by the appearance of the word. You only need to master the rule of pronunciation. But in Chinese, it was quite different. You can not find a little relationship between the appearance of word and pronunciation. Then as a Chinese person, we need to master a new thought of language if we want to master another language. But I think it was not the most terrible problem. I think the most terrible problem is that we can not find a comfortable language environment easily.
In China, we said that you need to through these four steps if you want to learn the language. The first, listening, the second speaking, the third, reading, the last, writing. When you was born, the first thing is that you began to listen the world,and then began to learn to speak. And then you would read something , at last began to learn how to write.
But unfortunately, my language learning steps was make a few mistakes. My first step is reading. And then I began to speaking, and then began to writing. The wrong steps made me to get a bad result of language learning. For example, I can express my meaning exactly, but I can not get the other persons' meaning exactly when we have a conversation. At this case, my pronunciation also sounds like shit.
I tried to do some practice for my English listening . But the effect was not good. Do you have some methods of listening improving ? Please help me. Thank you.
