As every one of us knows that, mastering English requires us to spend a lot of time on it for years. However, it is very hard for a normal worker or student to do it.To deal with this problem, I think there are two things we can do. First, create some funny and rewarding ways of learning English so that you can ensure that you can keep on learning it for years. Second, make English a part of your life, so that you can ensure that you spend enough on English, without deliberately spending time on it.Here are some of my ways of learning English.Funny and rewarding ways:1.My dream is to become a very famous freelance writer. I try to blog very often and reply to my readers’ comments every morning, like a very famous writer does. This is certainly a very funny way to me.2.I spend half an hour a day to listen to BBC sound clip and imitate the native speakers. To make it fun, I always imagine that I am the reporters and MCs inside the sound clips.3.Show my English ability to my friends to make myself more popular.4.Participate in English writing contests.5.Recommend myself as the MCs in my school events.6.Try to look for a part-time job which requires me to use English.Make it a part of your life:(Listen + Speak)1.I listen to more English songs, instead of always listening to songs in my mother tongue.2.Talk in English, instead of my mother tongue with some of my friends who want to learn English.3.Ask for direction in English.(Read + Write)1.Instead of spending my weekend on sleeping or something else, sometimes I would like to stay in book store and read some English books. This habit makes my weekends more meaningful.2.Write my schedules, diaries, and planners in English.3.I always carry a book with me and write down my ideas in English in the book. Therefore, I always have a lot of ideas to blog.4.Reply emails or messages in English most of the time.5.I write down all the new vocabularies and good phrases that I encounter in my textbook and internet into a small file and put it inside my briefcase. Therefore, I can read it at odd times.6.Surf the internet in English, instead of in my mother tongue.(Speak + Listen + Write + Read)1.Spend more time with friends who use English, and less time with those who use their mother tongues.(Translation)1.Every time, I try to leave messages in my status box in both my mother tongue and English.The most important point:Always treat myself as a native English user.Here are just my suggestions!Can you share with us about how you learn English?Your valuable advice will be appreciated.You can see the rest of my post here.BlogLucusstyle.blogspot.com
