read. I read a lot in my mother tounge.

Reading does improve language a lot, so it is worth doing. If you're a member of a BCL then I'd suggest you start with some of their Graded Readers, which are simplified texts and are a good start to reading. They will have a selection, including famous authors. The best thing to do is have a look and see which look the most interesting.
