Hope to learn from your experiences and precious opinion for this subject.

  Wow, very clearly guides dear Cyrill. I'm with you
  
  My note book is full filled by precious tips of you. Im really thanks.
  
  You know, some time I can’t leave the dictionary book just for a while because when I look up some words there, with their meanings, synonym, and examples give me some more new words, then I find them and get more the new words…. It is very interested in …sometime I feel that I can’t stop it, maybe I’m greedy. But then, the number of new words is very much….make me easier to forget.. :(
  
  Now, I remembered: figure out the frequent the word is used. Everytime I encount it, try to recall its meaning, pronounciation, spelling and, most importantly, the phrases and sentences associated with it
  
  Have nice day Cyrill !!

  Hi Cyrill, I do agree with you, exactly that trapped us about finding new words.
  
  Follow you, I put my mind one aim that I will read some material, because in that, the associated of word seem to be logical and easier to use in conversation frequently, then just find the word I need, and pick the word identical. Beside, control the time to look up on Dictionary to let it not get endless.. :)
  
  Thanks again for sharing your experience to me and some friends care about that in here. :)

  Dear Melanie Stone,
  
  I don't know how to say enough thanks for you! I respect your way to teach and to learn about language.
  
  Yes, As you said Reading, Singing (not belong to all songs because they don't always use perfect English)...I shouldn't just focus on one aspect. I need to listen, speak, read and write every day. As for chatting online, it's important to always be conscious of language and try to use proper grammar and punctuation at all times.
  
  I will follow your way, ya, nothing to be afraid, go through it!
  
  I'm really grateful for your encourage me with all your kind guides. I will try my best!

  Oh, How interesting experience of you! hihi, I have not any birds, so I think I will talk with myself in the mirror, just have to be careful if anyone can see me while I'm autism....LOL...(hihi, im jokking)
  
  I 'll follow you, pick 5 new words per day and remind always in speaking and all of skill and get the meanings, the examples, synonyms. ( I remembered )
  
  Do you think exchange them with friends is the great idea? :)
  
  Send to you my "Big Thanks" for your support. I will keep moving forward always... This is Promise. :)
