This brief article discusses, in English, Vietnamese, and Cambodian, the best method for Indochinese refugees in the U.S. to learn to speak and understand English fluently. The grammar-translation method is not recommended. Instead, audiolingual methods are stressed, as well as constant oral practice, either with a teacher or native speaker. Communication is emphasized as the primary goal. Suggestions for learning English include: daily practice; using English instead of relying on gestures; an ESL course as a good basis; and oral communication with Americans while learning. (AM)
