Many students ask for advice about improving their English. There are three basic questions.
The first question is about real English. Li Hao from Hubei wrote, "I enjoy watching English movies and listening to English songs. But it takes a long time. What do you think?"
These are great ways to learn English! Talk about the movies and songs with your friends, and guess the meanings of the new words. Just enjoy yourself!
The second question is about speaking. Sam from Jiangsu wrote, "Our school has a foreign teacher. But I'm shy and I am afraid of speaking to her. What should I do?"
When I visit China, lots of people in the street say, "Hello! How are you? Where are you from? Do you like China?" These are good questions to start a conversation. Many people are shy when they speak English, so before you begin, take a deep breath and smile! Smiling always helps.
The third question is about vocabulary. Oliver from Anhui wrote, "I want to remember all the new words. I write them down, but I forget them quickly. What should I do?"
Try to remember eight or ten words a day. Write them on pieces of paper and place them in your bedroom. Say the words when you see them, and change them every day. And when you are shopping, how about counting the English words, or saying the English names for everything you see?
