A Simplified ESL Model (by RetSam)

Thanks to George Machlan and Arkady Zilberman's sharings.

Hopefully these simple models can help us understand better what's going on inside us when we are practising English in different ways.

By comparing them, we can easily see that most of ESL learners have been building some unnecessary connections,for example the connection between an English word and it's chinese meaning. And we have missed some important connections, like the connection between an abstract image and an English word.

And we can see how the first language system and the translation process prevent us from talking fluently.

So,to improve our English efficiency,we can simply chose the practices that will help us build the 'missed connections' of the 'speedway'.
