　　旅居美國7～8年，接觸過從世界各國到美國的留學生及移居美國的朋友，發現並不是花很多錢、很聰明或是很有學問，就能說一口外國人聽得懂的英文。需要發音正確、具備充足的單字量，才能說出外國人聽得懂的「英文」去融入美國社會，否則很多留美碩士、博士，在美國的社交生活仍只侷限在華人圈裡，實在很可惜！

　　我從事英文教學30年，前8年以自認很會教KK音標為榮。2001年與美籍外師Paul Barger在台中創辦彌賽亞美語學苑，才恍然大悟：我們傳統的教學法都是死背單字，這會讓學生失去對英文的興趣。雖然我擁有2個美國碩士學位、中學英文教師證、大學英文講師證，也曾指導英文教學碩士班的研究生（北維吉尼亞大學TESOL），但多年以來，仍然願意投入中小學英文教學，因為見證到正確、有趣的教學法，可以讓孩子自信地學英文，中小學學生的英文可比大學生好太多了！

　　這本書所介紹的學習法，22年來透過彌賽亞美語學苑ESL課程，讓好多幸運的孩子正確、有趣地背單字，奠定堅實而良好的英文基礎，一輩子受益無窮。我的女兒Sueann（林思恩）15歲前往美國讀書，目前在美國的中小學科學及閱讀學習網站RocketLit / InnerOrbit擔任客戶業務經理，客戶是全美各學區及學校老師。信望愛眼科名醫郭醫師的女兒郭品君，台大政治系國際關係組畢業後，取得英國倫敦國際政治學碩士學位，目前任職於法務部調查局。尚展律師事務所廖律師的三位兒女，Roger在澳洲工作、Kelly擔任國外業務專員負責美國業務、Rose東海大學外文系畢業，目前從事英文教學工作。

　　受益於《單字音律記憶術》學習法的學生真的不勝枚舉，希望這本書也能帶給您滿滿的祝福！
