Helloo, I'm Rasmey, from Cambodia ... Nice to join here with all of You :)

Hello every body,

My name is Rasmey, I'm from Cambodia, 20years old. I am waiting my admission to study Master in Management. I've just joined this site for 2days. I'm so happy to know this site and to introduce myself to all of you here.

Well, I used to study English at school, but I had stopped it since I was in grade Intermediate. My course in university are all in French, except the course of economics analysis which is in English, so I speak and understand French more than English.

I need to study English as it's international language, and it's required in my Master program and in business international communication. I hope I can improve my English by joining this interested website. English is very useful in our everyday life.

I'm supposed to take a TOEIC in next month, so I need to prepare myself for it, I have promised myself to work harder and harder in order to get a satisfied result. But I find it's not that easy... I have difficulties in writing English. I think the problem is the fact that I lack of new vocabulary such as expression used to connect one phrase to another, language tools... and also grammar.
Whatever, I'll try hard.

Best Regards,
Rasmey.

Dear Rasmey,

Many thanks for joining our forum and sharing your experiences with us. It's interesting to hear that all your courses at university are in French. I know that many people in Cambodia speak French although the official language is Khmer, is that right? When did you start learning French and how often do you speak it? As for your English, you can improve it if you surround yourself with the language. For example, you should try to listen to English audio for at least 1 hour every day. The first thing after you get up in the morning should be to switch on an English language TV or radio station. Then, on your way to university you can listen to an audio book or podcast using an MP3 player.

If you do this for a couple of days, you will start having correct English phrases in your head without "working hard". Learning English should be fun.

Let me know what you think.
Regards,
Torsten
