2. Watch English Movies, TV Programs and Listen to Music
The next logical step is to watch as many English Movies and TV Programming 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.
I would recommend watching channels like Discovery, National Geographic, History and BBC.
Get MP3s or CDs/Cassettes of some old slow English songs. Keep listening to them till the time you can understand each word sung. This will get you used to various words and will improve your overall understanding of the language.
Again during this exercise note the words that you don’t understand in a vocabulary log (more about this ahead).
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. If there is a word which you pronounce differently, then try to rehearse that word over and over again till such time where you feel comfortable with the pronunciation and try pronouncing it the same way while speaking.
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. Always understand that having 3 – 4 friends in a group helps because each person in the group is trying his/her best to learn and when each of you in the group shares, you get to learn 3 – 4 new rules, pronunciations and vocabulary.
I would recommend that you forward this article to as many friends as possible and derive a group of 3 – 4 friends who are really serious about learning and helping you learn. Don’t expect to get any luck in the first try. You need to speak with as many friends as possible to get a solid 3 – 4 friend group. Share this article now
