Spoken English

Set yourself small goals. Learning English is a long process, and it may take years to progress from one level to the next. That’s why it’s important to set yourself achievable goals. 

Create a study schedule. Ensure this schedule works around your daily responsibilities and make sure to keep it simple! Try breaking up your English language learning over the course of an entire day, which may make it feel less daunting.

Practice a little bit every day. Even if it’s listening to an English podcast during your commute or practicing your favorite words while having your breakfast — every little bit of practice helps!

Turn on music in English. Rhythms and rhymes have been found to stimulate the brain and improve learning. In fact music can be an invaluable tool when learning English, as it helps with pronunciation, word boundaries and vocabulary.

Watch movies with English dialogue. Movies are a great source of native conversation and vocabulary. Plus, the visual nature of film allows you to experience nonverbal context too — such as facial expressions and hand gestures — accompanying and contextualising the film’s dialogue. Above all, watching a film is a fun and motivational way to develop English language skills.

Track your progress. To gain a sense of accomplishment, it’s important to know where you’ve started.
Finally, it’s important to keep in mind that not every learning trick will work for you. So, if you find that chatting with native-English speakers helps you progress faster but you’re not always able to converse with them face-to-face, spend more of your time communicating online with your English speaking friends and contacts......
