Learning Strategy (Strategi Belajar)
Learning Strategies are the thoughts and actions that help make learning easier or more effective.
The learning strategy for this lesson is Access Information Sources. In our digital world there are many free sources of information to help you learn English. And remember that other people can also help. Here is an example.
João is visiting Miami. He wants to take a tour of the National Park in the Everglades (or marismas in Portuguese). He finds the word "Everglades" in his pocket paperback Portuguese - English dictionary, but doesn't know how to pronounce it. He opens a translation web page on his phone, writes "Everglades" and pushes the button to translate. Soon a symbol appears under the word. João clicks on the symbol to hear the sound of the word, "Everglades." He goes to the hotel tour desk and asks, "Do you have a tour of the Everglades?" The clerk understands him and begins to show him the tour information. João asks the clerk, "Will you please say the word slowly for me? I want to check my pronunciation." The clerk smiles and pronounces the word and João says it again. Now João is sure he can say it correctly.

João berkunjung ke Miami. Ia ingin tur di National Park in the Everglades (atau marismas dalam bahasa Inggris). Ia menemukan kata "Everglades" di kamus Portuguese - English, tapi tidak tahu bagaimana mengucapkannya. Ia membuka situs terjemahan di hp-nya, dan menulis "Everglades". Lalu ada simbol yang muncul di bawah kata-katanya. João mengklik simbol itu untuk mendengar pengucapannya, "Everglades." Ia mendatangi meja tur dan bertanya, "Do you have a tour of the Everglades?" Petugas bisa mengerti apa yang dikatakannya dan memberikan informasi. João bertanya kepada petugas, "Will you please say the word slowly for me? I want to check my pronunciation." Petugas tersenyum dan mengucapkan kata tersebut dan João mengulanginya. Sekarang João yakin ia bisa mengucapkan kata tersebut dengan benar.
