Your learning experience should begin with an honest assessment. Why do you want to learn English? Your answer will be your main motivation. Keep your motivation at the forefront of your mind at all times. Attainable goals will keep you focused on success. Set small goals each week for new vocabulary words, pronunciation and listening skills. When your goals have been achieved each week, reward yourself.
Learning style will greatly influence how you study English. Determine whether your style of learning is visual, auditory, or tactile and let that dictate how you spend your study time. A visual learner should focus on pictures, diagrams, and notes taken during class. The auditory learner may want to record class lectures and spend time listening to other English speakers. A tactile learner will want to use a hands-on approach to learning through interacting with natural English speakers.
English learning should become a part of your daily life. A set amount of time each day should be chosen to dedicate specifically to studying the English language. English should be on your mind all the time. If you want to dedicate 30 minutes a day to learning English, consider breaking that time up into three 10-minute sessions throughout the day.
Research has shown that immersion into a culture is the most efficient way to learn a new language. If you are living in a country where English is not spoken, consider taking a trip to an English-speaking country. Alternatively, find a tour or lecture in your country that will be spoken in English. If neither of these opportunities are available, purchase several movies in English and watch them frequently.
