HOW TO LEARN ENGLISH WELL

1. Study for one hour each day. Learning another language takes time. An hour is a short time when you consider that it takes about ten years to learn a language well.
2. Study in English, not your mother tongue. (Translation slows permanent learning).
3. Study with simple, interesting books. Difficult, or boring books make learning stressful and uninteresting. Stress will lead to frustration, and boredom will lead to quitting or half-hearted efforts.
4. Study with books at or below your level. You want to learn logically, peacefully, and building confidence.
5. Study with books that do not use your language. Native English books quicken and strengthen your thinking and learning.
6. Study with a native speaker. Native-speakers are your 'reason' for studying, and they speak English as it is spoken (your goal)!
7. Memorize key phrases. These are your building blocks for communication, and every one learned builds your confidence.
8. Write in English every day. This slows down your tongue; improves thinking and speech.
9. Speak in English every day. This builds listening, speech and confidence.
10. Listen to live English every day; talk shows, real conversations, recorded classes. This is how people actually talk!
