Hi there. In order to improve your English, it is very important that you listen to and practise spoken English as often as possible to improve your English pronunciation. Click onto Knowledge at the left then go to Learn English. Type in your native language as your base language. You can also click onto Language Partners and Language Teachers at the left of this page and email native speakers to set up a time to practise oral English. Click onto Groups at the left and join an English one that you like, to practise your pronunciation. Italki members recommend these sites for learning English: http://www.elllo.org/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/ http://www.usingenglish.com/http://www.englishpage.com/http://www.sharedtalk.com http://www.tolearnenglish.com

Make lists of words you learned and categorize them, e.g words you use at the office , words you use at school , greetings etc.. - Keep a diary in English . Try to use the new words you learned to write and compose simple sentences .The more you add up to your vocabulary, the more you can form intricate ones. Test your level!. -Take a holiday abroad if you can afford in countries speaking English. It is an opportunity to practice with natives and learn more about the culture and people.You can sign up in language courses in those countries as well beside visiting its historical and monumental buildings and museums . You will be using guiding phrasebooks to help you get along there. The whole process will help you learn more words, expressions and practice speaking. All the above can help you improve your language. Intensifying your efforts will make you improve faster. Concentrating on whatever method you are applying will guarantee you a more steady improvement. I hope those tips were helpful. Good luck:)

Hello Kevin Lee, Here are some tips to help you learn English .The time you need to improve depends on how much time you dedicate to learning and how intensive your effort is.To learn 'quickly' you have to intensify your efforts like taking intensive courses for examples. -To start learning English from the scratch you might need to take some initial classes to learn the alphabet , how to pronounce ,basic vocabulary and grammar. You can do that by taking classes in a language institute or by self learning online, although some guiding from a tutor at that early stage is recommended, unless you are able to depend only on audio/video facilities. - Then you have to practice and increase your vocabulary through different means such as : *Reading at your level of comprehension simple texts or books and looking up new words . * Listening to English through music and possibly reading the lyrics . * Watching movies in English with subtitles in your mother tongue. * Chatting with natives online using voice chats or in real life .Mingling with natives is a very good way to be constantly listening to speech in English, even if you don't understand at the beginning.

You need to find as many oportunities as you can to practise, especially speaking and writing so that you improve your ability to produce the language. There are lots of places online to practise. It's also good to enrol in a class or find a teacher so that your learning is structured. A good teacher will make your learning fun and also motivate you to keep learning.
