Collections of Professor Dr David Ngin Sian Pau

1. What was your dream before five years ago?

2. My dream before 15 years ago -

to become a millionaire/
a famous actor/kung fu
master/a famous preacher.

3. How speaking good English took over my interest? Tell the importance of English!

4. Will Chinese language become universal language?

5. What are the hindrances of speaking very good English ?

How does Second language acquisition work?
getting by heart-no translation/
brain translation/
repeat over and over again/
speak out the language/use your own English/
vocabulary/
listen to songs and news/

6. How to learn English!

A good learning attitude/
Practice makes perfect/
Accept correction/
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes but learn from your mistakes/
Rome was not built in a day-don’t be in a hurry/Talk to foreign English teachers/
Create English speaking environment with friends who support you/

7. Don’t stop reading, listening, speaking and writing English whenever you get time.

Even if you study at the best university in the world, you will gain nothing if you don’t
have self study. I know people who went and came back from USA, UK but could not
speak English well. Don’t blame the college or your professor or lecturer. They will
just guide you but by dint of hard work you will be successful and achieve your life
goal.
