The most efficient way to practice English I am a kind of people who believe that practice is the best method to learn a language. I have been studying English for about 2 years and I feel my ability is decreasing because I barely practice at the moment. There were times when I felt very confident to use English in my daily activities. It was the time when I practiced it so much; I would practice listening and reading in the morning, writing in the afternoon and even having conversation with some friends before I sleep. The result was very nice. I even beat the TOEFL test with a good score! However, things are pretty busy currently so I can't practice English as frequent as I used to. Moreover, I also lose some friends I usually practiced English with. The result can be guessed, I lose my confidence to use English in my daily life. It is not that I don't practice English at all because I still read some English articles and watch some decent movies with no subtitles on. But still, without practicing speaking and writing, my ability is rapidly declining. That is why I would recommend you to not stop practicing learning language even in the short time. It would make your struggles for years in vain.
