New year's resolution for learning English
As I wrote in my previous entry that I would write about my plans and goals of learning English this year, here it is.
1. As in Like last year, I plan to study English everyday.
2. I plan to surround myself with an English environment as I always do. For This year, I plan to add variation to it. Instead of TV series and News, I plan to watch cooking shows, traveling shows, and etc.
3. I plan to listen more carefully. Thai is different from English. Ending sounds mean nothing in Thai but it could change the meaning of words in English. So, I plan to listen more carefully when I talk to people, listen to the radio, watching TV, and etc.
4. I plan to talk to my wife in English as much as possible.
5. I plan to learn from a word a day app. It is an application on the phone that feeds a new word with definition and usage everyday.
6. I plan to read more articles in English and write every word I don't know in a notebook to help me remember them and their usage.
7. I plan to practice "Effortless English" everyday. I have a problem that where I always think about grammar rules, pronunciation, and word usage before I speak and that makes me stutter. It is a self-study program and one of its goals is speaking without thinking then so it might help me overcome the stuttering.
8. I plan to study more grammar books to improve my writing skills.
That These is are all of my plans of for studying English for this year. Let me tell you about my goals.
1. I expect myself to be able to express everything, both physical stuff things and feelings, clearly.
2. I expect myself to be able to help people who come to Thailand by answering their questions in English clearly (if I know the answers.)
3. I expect myself to be able to talk to my coworkers in English about work, small-talk, and everyday conversation.
4. I expect myself to be able to write at least 80% correct English in emails, documents, and notebook entries.
If you have any suggestion or comment about my plan, please let me know. :)
