5 Things To Remember As You Improve Your English
How do you keep motivated to learn? Do you have fun learning it outside of class? Here are some reminders for you as you learn and practice your English!
Very interesting, Taylor! And you were right in all of those points!
You know, I first started learning English just like you did! Listening to music and, consequently, series, videos and movies. Nowadays, I do it as a hobby! I put English videos or audios in my background to just listen to them and enjoy. And, of course, to get new information!
I believe using things you're passionate about is the best way to canalize your studying.
Nice article!
Good little article Taylor.
I liked the part where you mentioned speaking another language made you feel like another person.
When I started learning German, in 1977, probably before you were born, one of our textbooks there appeared a quote from Winston Churchill, „To speak a foreign language is to be another person.“
I always found that to be true, at least psychologically. Learning a foreign language is actually fun, if you like the language, the culture and the people it´s native to. And, not being afraid of making mistakes is really big in making progress. You learn a lesson from every mistake you make that you`ll never forget, which itself is a valuable learning experience, and only one or a handful of people will have ever heard the mistake. Even if the mistake embarassed you (which is why people remain reticent) that`s only one person or a few out of millions of speakers who never did hear the mistake and never will. I look at like that. Then you can really see how unimportant it is, and in fact how useful it is, to make mistakes.
Good job on your article.
