| How to improve your English skills
My most important piece of advice is:
"Do something (anything). If you don't do anything,
you won't get anywhere. Make it your hobby, not a chore, but above all
have fun!"
Don't be in too much of a hurry. You're setting off on a long journey
and there'll be delays and frustrations along the way. Sometimes you'll
be in the fast lane and other times you'll be stuck in traffic, but
there will also be lots of interesting things and interesting people
along the way. Take your time to really enjoy the experience.
There are many ways to improve your level of English, but only you can
find the right way for you. Here are a few tips that might help:- Improve your Learning Skills Learning is a skill and it can be improved.
Your path to learning effectively is through knowing
•yourself
•your capacity to learn
•processes you have successfully used in the past
•your interest, and knowledge of what you wish to learn
Motivate yourself
If you are not motivated to learn English you will become frustrated and
give up. Ask yourself the following questions, and be honest:-
•Why do you need to learn/improve English?
•Where will you need to use English?
•What skills do you need to learn/improve? (Reading/Writing/Listening/Speaking)
•How soon do you need to see results?
•How much time can you afford to devote to learning English.
•How much money can you afford to devote to learning English.
•Do you have a plan or learning strategy? Set yourself achievable goals
You know how much time you can dedicate to learning English, but a short
time each day will produce better, longer-term results than a full day
on the weekend and then nothing for two weeks.
Joining a short intensive course could produce better results than joining a course that takes place once a week for six months.
Here are some goals you could set yourself:-
•Join an English course (and attend regularly).
•Do your homework.
•Read a book a month.
•Learn a new word every day.
•Visit an English speaking forum every day.
•Read a news article on the net every day.
•Do 10 minutes listening practice every day.
•Watch an English film at least once a month.
•Follow a soap, comedy or radio or TV drama.
A good way to meet your goals is to establish a system of rewards and punishments.
Decide on a reward you will give yourself for fulfilling your goals for a month.
•A bottle of your favourite drink
•A meal out / or a nice meal at home
•A new outfit
•A manicure or massage
Understanding how you learn best may also help you.
There are different ways to learn. Find out what kind of learner you are
in order to better understand how to learn more effectively..Other English Learning Tips
Travel to an English speaking country:- •England is only a few hours flight away.
•Specialist holidays are available to improve your English.
•Take an English speaking tour or activity holiday.
Spend your time on things that interest you. If you like cooking then
buy an English-language cookbook or find recipes on the net and practise
following the recipes. You'll soon know if you have made a mistake!
Keep something English on you (book, newspaper or magazine, cd or
cassette, set of flashcards) all day and every day, you never know when
you might have 5 spare minutes.
If you are too tired to actively practice just relax and listen to an English pop song or talk radio station.  gnassora | |
