How to learn and improve English

Because English is so widely spoken, it has often been referred to as a “global language”. While English is not an official language in many countries, it is currently the language most often taught as a second language around the world.





Following are the ways in which you can help yourself to learn and improve English

1. Read as much as possible
Reading is the first step to help you on your journey towards improving and learning English. Read as much, whenever and wherever possible. Start with reading the section of the daily newspaper that you like the most. If you are interested in the sports section, then start with reading that. Slowly you will gain interests in reading other sections of the newspaper as well.

2. Watch English Movies, TV Programs and Listen to Music
The next logical step is to watch as many English Movies and TV Programs as possible. Watching movies and TV programs has an ever lasting impact on you, but beware of movies and TV Soap, Comedy or Drama that uses a lot of slang language. This will destroy your learning process.

3. Get your pronunciations right
We all have pronunciations for every English word that we use, unfortunately some of it is correct and some incorrect. In the previous point where I asked you to listen and watch as many movies/TV programs/Songs, etc as possible, you should also focus on listening to the pronunciations.

4. Group Learning
Having a group of 3 – 4 committed friends can help a lot. If you don’t have one, then identify people who are really interested in learning. Form a group and motivate yourself to learn and improve collectively. The more you share, the more you learn.

5. Speak English
Reading, listening and improving vocabulary is all good, but not till the time you don’t make use of your learning by speaking and writing.

6. Increase and improve your Vocabulary
As you read newspapers, magazines, online articles or watch movies, TV programs, news or listen to songs you might find words which you don’t fully understand. In such cases note those words in a Vocabulary log (more about vocabulary log later).
