Hi Torsten,

I´ve just read your advice how to learn English most effectively and I think I´ll tyke up your 30/30 Challenge. I´ll also try to find more time to post something I listened to on this forum, I think it´s a great idea to improve my English skills through listening and then reffering to it. So far, I´ve tried to watch some movies and serials with subtitels in my native language - it has helped me to learn a couple of new expressions, but I often concetrate myself too much on reading subtitels. Therefore, I prefer watching sit-coms which I can understand best. Besides, I like reading books in English. I mostly use a dictionary to look for new words and note them down. In addition I try to think in English, to translate everything in Eglish what I´m thinking about or sometimes only paging through the dictionary and noting down new interesting words..

Best regards, Lubos

Hi Torsten,

Can you please tell me which words to be used in the approperiate way.I can understnd english but iam unable to know which words to be used and at which time and place.How to remember the words.

---Appreciate your help

[Torsten]

Hi Urm,

What situation are you referring to? What do you want to say or write and to whom? As for remembering words, you need to listen to English as much as possible. How much time do you spend on listening to English every day now?

Hi friends
I agree with all methods you use, I think everything is possible if you really want get it.
according my experience gain confidence is the best step we need, listening, and enjoying lessons too.
I try to do exercises everyday, listen audio cassette and repeat all I can. As I can't to practice with someone near me
and to know if my pronunciation is right, I search audio exercises in the internet.

Have a nice day

Hi Torsten.

I learn English by reading grammar books and practicing some grammar exercises. I also tried to learn English by watching original movies but it was quit difficult for me to understand them. So sometimes i watch some serials in my language and then in English, so I know better what they are talking about. I am also going to read some English books.
What do you think is the best way of learning English?

Best regards,

Tina

Hi Torsten,

I´ve taken up your 30/30 challenge and I think it´s really helping me to improve my English. So far, I´ve been watching some documentaries, which I would recommend to other members too because you can listen to distinctly spoken Englisch and the most important parts are extra emphasized. In addition, I like watching sit-coms whereby I can learn many colloquial expressions. I´m also revising my vocabulary and can listen to how it is used in the sentences. I think, when I get through all 30 days I will continue without reading subtitels..

Best regards, Lubos

I depend on chatting with americans & I have alot of american`s friends " My Internet friends :) " anyway I love all of them and deal with them as my brothers & sisters and alot of them are muslims or who like to learn alot about Islam so there`s alot of informations which can be shared by us.
Another method of learning is watching Films " LION, Transporter 1,2...etc" .
Thanks alot..

Hi Torsten,

I’m Fairy, one of your students and maybe the laziest student you have ever met.('') I’m from Myanmar and I’m still attending in a university. Except the time I’m in my university there is the time of my own. So I have many times to waste.('')I usually spend my time by reading, watching movie, talking and playing game.('')Although I like reading, I’ve just only read the books writing in Myanmar even it is a poem or a novel. How stupid was I?('') But now I’m trying to read the short novels that are writing in simple English and Reader’s Digest. If there are some words that I don’t familiar with I search them in dictionary and try to remember them. The second way I use is watching English movie. First I off the caption and trying to catch the conversations and then I see that movie as a second time and open the caption to check have I right. The third way is I’m attending in your class, trying to read your replies to some of my classmates. And I’m trying to chatting in English as well. That’s all. I’m still finding others good ways that can improve my English, and welcome your suggestion.('')

Torsten,

I have a problem for my learning since I have been learning English for more than years.
If the subject to easy sometimes I'm boring but if too difficult it will make me boring also.
No I try to learn as systematic as possible follow your class. Everyday I watch TV and listening to the radio for the news.
I'm also using dictionary for learning.
Hope my english will be better.

Regards
