Day 163/365 Today I watched (a) YouTube video and I'd like to tell you about it. This video was about English. How we need to study it. A teacher says that if your level is about intermediate or less , the beast thing that you can do it reads adapted books and then start to listen some short videos( like Ted talk, simple conversation or easy expansion of something) , or listen to these adapted books. On the one hand you get new and interesting information for you and the same time we have some input process in our brain. I mean that when we have context all information stay deeper in our brain. He also says, if you learn some lists of words it's not so good idea, because, yes , probably you able to remember these, but on the other hand all off these without practice and context lost very quickly. I absolutely agree with him. In my opinion the readying is the perfect spending your free time. It's very interesting and useful. I'm feeling so much power when I can read and understand some English books. It gives me more energy for maintain my study of English.

Day 163/365 Today I watched a YouTube video and I'd like to tell you about it. This video was about English and how we need to study it. A teacher says that if your level is about intermediate or less, the best thing that you can do is read adapted books and then start to listen some short videos (like Ted talks, simple conversations or easy explanations of something), or listen to these adapted books. On one hand, you get new and interesting information and on the other hand, we have some input process in our brain. I mean that when we have context, all information is stored deeper in our brain. He also says, if you learn lists of words, it's not such a good idea, because, yes, probably you will be able to remember these, but without practice context is lost very quickly. I absolutely agree with him. In my opinion the reading is the perfect way to spend your free time. It's very interesting and useful. I feel so much power when I can read and understand some English books. It gives me more energy to maintain my study of English.

I think reading is the best way to improve English, but that may be just me. What do you think?

I'm totally agree with you. I think that the main problem of most of intermediate level people is the low vocabulary knowledge and a good way to solve this problem is to read novel books. I also recommend watching English news at the same time.

Day 163/365 Today I watched a YouTube video I'd like to write about. This video was about how we need to study English. A teacher said that if your level is around intermediate or less, the best thing you can do is read adapted books and then start watching short videos( like Ted talks, simple conversations or easy expansion of something) , or listen to these adapted books. On the one hand, you obtain new and interesting information while learning new words. When we have context, we remember information longer. He also said, if you learn lists of words, it's not a good idea. Although you may be able to remember these, without practice and context, you will forget. I absolutely agree with him. In my opinion, reading is a perfect way to spend your free time. It's very interesting and useful. I feel empowered when I read and understand English books. It gives me energy to keep studying English.
