In plain English

This repository is a written guide in Chinese titled "A Programmer's Guide to English," aimed at programmers who want to genuinely improve their English skills. The guide was written by a developer who started with a poor English foundation and systematically improved their proficiency over roughly six months of dedicated study, ultimately reaching an internationally recognized test score equivalent to IELTS 6.5. Topics covered in the guide include the nature of language learning, how to train your brain to recognize English, specific practice methods, and a Q&A section. It also includes recommended resources and tools. The guide is written entirely in Chinese prose (no programming code), explaining the principles of language acquisition in terms that software developers can relate to. It is meant for people who want to invest real time in mastering English rather than looking for quick shortcuts.
