How to learn English well
Dear friends,
I am happy to be here to talk about how to learn English well with you all.
There are four good ways to learn English well. Firstly, listen to the radio or English songs every day. It can help improve your listening. Secondly, make use of every chance to speak English and don't be afraid of making mistakes. It's a good idea to spell and pronounce new words aloud. Thirdly, read English books or newspapers as much as possible. It not only increases our reading speed but also opens our mind. Last but not least, you can try to improve your writing by making an English pen pal. It's never easy to learn English well, but as long as you keep learning.you'll make great progress.
Hope my advice is helpful to you!
