It’s human tendency to get excited when learning something new. In recent times, English, as a language, has grown widely. Therefore, you decide to learn and improve English in every possible way. Although, you have been learning English since your childhood, but when it comes to fluency, grammar and accent, your confidence is not at its peak. Now, when you decide to learn these you get confused as to where and how to start. Don’t worry, follow these steps and improve your English skills in no time.

Five steps to follow

Learning English is not an exception. In order to be successful, you must take it seriously.

1. Read books

Start reading English articles, books, and magazines, etc. This is the best way to learn new words. You can start reading with children’s short stories. Every time you come across a word you do not know, look for its meaning and write it down in your mother tongue. From there, you can try to write one or two examples of daily situations in which you could use this word. If you use the word, it is more likely that you will remember it, especially if you brush up on your vocabulary list every day.

2. Start speaking

The more you think about speaking, the more nervous you will get. Just try speaking more and more. Whenever you meet your friends try to speak in English with them. Make a count on how many times you speak in five minutes. Try to speak more. If you spoke one time today, next time, try to speak two or three times. The more you speak, the more you will learn how to communicate properly.

3. Don’t translate

Translating everything into your native language is a bad sign, especially, when you are learning English! It slows down your progress. Instead when you hear something in English you can listen to the words you understand. For example, if you hear, “There is a big rhinoceros” and if you don’t know what ‘rhinoceros’ means, but you see a big animal in a picture, you can deduce the meaning.  Use those clues to figure out what it means.

4. Watch English movies

Watching movies with subtitles is a great way to be actively involved in the plot as you constantly perform a task, of following the script with your eyes. At the same time as you are hearing the words, you are seeing them: this allows you to unconsciously grasp the pronunciation of words, which can sometimes be tricky in English.

5. Make mistakes

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. Fear can stop you from learning English. Do you avoid speaking with native English speakers and other people that speak English better than you? Stop being so afraid of speaking in  English! You need to let go and relax. You need to stop thinking about it. No one is perfect. Everyone make mistakes. The more you do something, the better you get at it. To be a better English speaker, you need to stop worrying about making mistakes.

Be confident in every manner.  You can learn English anytime and anywhere. In today’s smart phone world, you can download helpful apps that can help you learn English on the go!
