listen english, speak english, read english, write english, and the most important - think in english! :P i mean, listen to english clips, movies, TV programmes, news, whatever... if u find it too difficult, start with english sub-titles and then gradually do without them. talk in english. yeah, u'll be slow. yeah, u'll make more mistakes per day than the total no of babies born, but that's important, and that'll help u immensely. and yeah, talk to someone who corrects u! reading and writing is important because that'll imporve your vocab. so u can understand and speak faster and better (read : fluently). writing is imporatnt because they r your thoughts. and finally, think in english. NOT in your native language. be like a protestant. direct approach to english (god) not through any other language (church, etc)
