Improve your English!

1. 1. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. Be confident. People can only correct your mistakes when they hear you make them.
2. 2.  Surround yourself in English. Put yourself in an all English speaking environment where you can learn passively. The best way to learn is through speaking.
3. 3.  Practice every day. Make yourself a study plan. Decide how much time a week you are going to spend studying and stick to it. Establish a routine.
4. 4.  Tell your family and friends about your study plan. Get them to push you to study and also don’t let them interrupt you. 
5. 5.  Practice the 4 core skills: reading, writing, speaking and listening. They all need to be worked on for you to improve.
6. 6.  Keep a notebook of new words you learn. Use them in sentences and try to say them at least 3 times when you speak.
7. 7.  You will find words easier to remember if you try to remember an example sentence using that word rather the word on its own.
8. 8.  Give yourself a long term goal. Focus on working towards it.
9. 9.  Do not translate into English from your own language. Think in English to improve your fluency. Talk to yourself…
10. 10.  The most natural way to learn grammar is through talking.
