On these websites you will also find activities such as word searches, matching games or translation tools that can help you learn English as a second language. You can use a podcast or online activities as a way to learn the language or in addition to working with a tutor.
Use a translation dictionary or phrase book to work English into your everyday language. When you go to the market or see people on the bus, start conversations to practice your English. Speaking with native speakers is a challenge, but it is one of the best ways to learn the language. Ask people how to say things properly if you are unsure.
