Revised Annotated Bibliography 3

The difference between learning English in an English-speaking country and not an English-speaking one is mentioned in this video: that is, the pronunciation of the native teacher and the way students learn English are more helpful to them than the way they were taught in their native countries. Still, there are other opinions may be against these thoughts.

As far as I am concerned, I am pretty identified with what these students say in this video. My identification with them actually bases on my own experiences. In effect, I have been in the United States twice before. I think one of the greatest advantages of learning English in an English-speaking country is exactly the one mentioned by the students that we can learn the accent of the native speakers. However, it still depends on what your attitude is when you are abroad. You need to be active in improving yourself rather than passive in learning the foreign language when you are abroad. Otherwise, you will still not improve your language skills in a foreign country.
