HOW TO STUDY ENGLISH BY GOOD METHOD
Momento_net@yahoo.com
This Just one way that I can share with you
all.
Speak as often and as much as possible! This is the best way to
learn English! There is nothing better than conversation to help you improve.
Whereas, you can practise reading, writing, and listening on your own, it’s
obviously better to speak English with someone. The best way to do this is to
be in an English speaking environment. Take an English course in an English
language school, or better still, learn English in an English-speaking country.
The quickest way to learn English is to surround yourself with
English speakers. Also, get into the habit of thinking in English, don’t
translate from your own language into English, it will slow you down. When you
talk, use the sentences which instantly and naturally feel right to you, these
are often the correct ones. Many students learn to develop an ‘intuition’ about
English, use yours and trust it.
This might sound a little strange and embarrassing at first, but
record yourself talking and listen to your own pronunciation, talking speed and
the flow of your speaking. It will give you a great chance to see the areas you
need to work on. Finally, it’s fun to sing in English, so learn some English
songs and sing your heart out!
Listening
This really is a skill that needs
to be worked on everyday. Like speaking, it’s better for you to be in a totally
English speaking environment. Full immersion is the best way for you to improve
your level. Again, nothing can beat learning at an English language school
abroad.
It’s also good to watch TV shows,
or movies in English. The news can be difficult to learn from for level
students, but the more you listen the more you’ll pick up. As an exercise, it’s
good to have something you can listen to over and over again. For example, a
DVD can be repeated whereas a news report can only be heard once. When
listening to something more than once; first, try to catch the general meaning,
then, listen a second time for more in-depth information.
Learn to ’shadow’ using a DVD or
CD, listen and repeat what you hear said. It’s important to remember that a
native English speaker is not going to repeat something 10 times for you to
understand, so as a long term goal, you must focus on learning to get your
listening right first time.
Here are another couple of
important things to think about.
Reading
Reading English is something you
can do to help you learn on your own, outside of the classroom. Have a
dictionary with you (English/English is best.) to look up new words and then
write them down in a notebook. Try to use these new words in conversation, it's
a great way to learn.
Newspapers are good for higher
level students, so for lower levels try reading children’s stories or books
which have been especially written for English learners. You won’t learn much
if you choose a book that is too difficult or too easy. You should find
something that will be challenging, fun, and you can learn well from.
When you read don’t worry about
trying to understand every world, don’t keep reaching for the dictionary every
few seconds! Instead, try and understand the general meaning of the text first
and then re-read it for more detail. For words you don’t understand, try
learning how to guess the meaning from the context. Look at the other words in
the sentence; they will give you clues as to its meaning. Check to see if the
English word is a verb, a noun or an adjective. The internet is full of stuff
you can read and learn from.
Writing
Try keeping a diary; write
something in English in it every day, even if it’s very simple. Start with
small sentences and make them longer. Again, the internet is a great way to
help. Try to make friends online, visit chat rooms, forums, or post comments on
blogs. These are all useful tools for you to learn well from.
Writing gives you a good chance
to review words you have learned in the past, and allows you the time to think
about grammar as you write. Go back and review anything you might have written
in the past,when your English was at a lower level, and try to find any
mistakes you made.
Think about writing a short story
or even a poem; if you have a teacher, he or she, will be happy to check it for
you.
Mistakes
None of us want to make mistakes
in front of others; however, your mistakes are very important and will actually
help you learn English. The key is, not to be afraid to make mistakes. Don’t
waste a chance to speak English because you were too nervous about making a
mistake. This is especially true if you study in an English language school,
teachers want to hear your mistakes, so they can correct them for you. Don’t be
shy; be confident, having an ‘I can do it’ attitude will help you learn. Above
all, try not to worry, learning English should be fun! The more fun you have,
the easier you will learn!
Goals
Set yourself a goal and keep it
in mind, it will motivate you to learn. For example, think about why you
started to learn English. Do you need to learn English, to pass a test, for
business, to travel or to watch movies? Whatever the reason, you’ll find that
you work harder when you focus on a target. Choose a goal that you want to
achieve and then create a time-frame to achieve it by. Plan what you want to be
able to do with your English ability by this time next year or in six months.
Make sure that your goal is realistic and that you keep working towards it.
It’s worth making plans to take an English test, so you have something very
real you need to learn English for. Whatever you decide to do, don't give up!
