Hello Jess,

I see that you’re taking part in this forum by this time very intensively. I appreciate that you’re posting few messages every day. I’d say your intensive and consistent efforts are going to bring you a dramatic improvement in learning English language skills. Please keep up speaking English as much as you can!

Dear Jess, I’m regularly taking part in this forum. That’s I can have regular chat with you. But, I’m afraid like many others you might not be interested to chat continuously!

With warm regards,

Mujibur

Hi Jess,

Very good phrasing, "It's now or never!" Your wordings are clear manifestation of your high motivation for learning English language skills. In other words, you have the right passion for this language. And I see you’re courageous enogh to change your lifestyle for intensifying efforts to practice and learn the essential skills. Undoubtedly, you know what you’re doing, and that is why, successes are awaiting at your door-steps!

Hope to have more exchanges with you and bye for now!

Mujibur

I think posting recordings on here is a great way, but very time consuming. Finding native English speaking friends is ideal. That can be difficult, but the internet is amazing. There are many resources out there to connect with a native English speaker online. Skype or other free voice chat software is available.

As always, consistency is key. Try to speak often and with someone who corrects you. You can find free partners out there too. Language exchanges are very popular. Someone who is interesting in learning your native language is a perfect partner.

Good luck!!

Hello Jess,

What techniques have you used in practicing your pronunciation? Like TutorBrain said, finding a native English speaker to talk with might be ideal but something I learned from a friend is to watch programs in English, listen closely to how they pronounce the words and repeat them to yourself. If you don't have someone to talk with at the moment it is a decent second option. I've even used web dictionaries that allow you to click a button and hear the pronunciation of the word.

Hello Megan,
I often use CDs with a text book , i try to listen many times and write down the useful phrases and sentences, until i know every words . And try to use these phrases , sentences in my dailylife or work. i find this is a effective and interesting way. Finding a native English speaker is the best way ,but i found it's very difficult to find , as we know , all of us are very busy and only few people are interested in what we say and write .We must make good use of our time . Watching english programs and movies is a good way , but i find it should based on that we have a certain number of vocabulary,else it's arduous to follow the paces. And i used to writting what i heard and see ,if i think the sentences , phrases and words are useful.
Best regards,
Jess
