How to learn English well

[old learner]

learning English is easy job!

At first we should know learning of what part of language is our concern.
In my opinion no body is able to learn all part of English language or even any other languages. For example some people graduated from English litreture courses after many years of studying. Can these people be able speak a perfect English in a medical seminar?

If we put enough time and effort we are able to learn some aspect of English language perfectly. So it is necessary to select the area of language we are interested on. If our goal is to speak English at daily regular life our learning approach should fit to this goal. For example through living among English spoken people. This oppertunity is not available for everyone. So as other alternative method we can wahch English movies or watch English TV programs.

If our goals is to read english books in our subjects we need another appraoch which fits to our goals; and so on.

So we should choose our concern of English language and then we should find the ways we can reach to our goal.

Hello Alice,

Yes sure it is a possibility ..... if I had your email, I would contact you, bit I don't. So you can try to contact me or anyone else who likes to speak English, or you can post your own email address so others can contact you.
Up to you

cheers ..Erwin

study of any subject will be easier if we use the rules of learning as they were explained in psychologic books.
Daily continuation of study is necessary to improve our knowlege in English or any other subjects.
So for better learning we should know these rules.

On the other hand I missed the chance for "making friends" -16 years ago-that you hinted at since I'm married.

As you are a chinese, I suggest the website below ÆÕÌØÓ¢ÓïÌýÁ¦ - Ó¢ÓïÌýÁ¦µÄÌì¿Õ. It is a good place for you to download or listening online according to your English proficiency. You can not only practice listening there, but also broaden your view. This website provides a variety of news, stories, articles for you to choose. You can also learn from other chinese people learning English. Hope this do help

One thing that might help is to surf on over to the "Editing and Writing Topics" and post some sample sentences for revision. You'll get lots of advice and get the hang of it in no time!

And while you are easily understandable, since you mentioned grammar and word use, I thought I'd suggest a few revisions. I would substitute "improve" for "better" in the first sentence, and add an "s" to the word "skill" in the second sentence. I would also revise the next two sentences to read, "I wish my grammar skills were as good as yours. Would you mind sharing some tips for learning grammar and sentence structure with me?"

You can always PM me if you want more advice...
