How to improve my English skill?

[8585]

Dear teacher:
I really want to improve my vocabulary and pronunciation, any suggestions?:shock::shock:

 

[emsr2d2]

Practice. :-D

 

[teloi]

and practice everyday

 

[emsr2d2]

Teloi, that is good advice but please remember to start your responses to other learners with "Not a teacher". Also remember that we start a sentence with a capital letter and end a sentence with a punctuation mark.

There is no shortcut to learning, so you have to practise hard regularly for a long time.

Speaking as a learner, not a teacher.

No one that I know of that has promised a shortcut to learning a language has delivered.

No one that I know of that has promised a shortcut to learning a language has delivered.

Oh, that's a beautiful 'double restriction'.:-D
It has nothing to do with the OP's question, but please allow me to ask a question here.
Is it natural to say 'No one that has promised a shortcut to learning a language that I know of has delivered'?
Thank you.

 

[emsr2d2]

No. That sounds as if you're talking about "a language that you know of".

 

[Matthew Wai]

Then is it natural to say 'I know of no one that has promised a shortcut to learning a language that has delivered'?

 

[emsr2d2]

Yes, although I prefer "who" to "that" in both instances.
