Hi Niks, I agree with Hellopanda and fdmaxey. Here is a site that contains many websites about audio books and lots of other useful advice for you. Good Luck! http://www.italki.com/knowledge/contribution-IMPROVE+YOUR+ENGLISH+LISTENING+SKILLS.htm

I find that listening to audio books is the best way to start. It forms a good foundation to build on. However, past a certain point, voice chat is better, simply because you are limited to a script with audio books. If you are going to converse with people on a daily basis, you have to move away from a scripted book and simply start talking - the more, the better.

no, i think listening to audiobooks while reading the book is better because this activity integrates all the language skills. it first helps you with listening (which leads to good speaking) and reading (which leads to better writing).

Hello niks, Voice chat is one of the options not the best one necessarily .Any method could render best results if applied effectively .If you chose a suitable language partner,who could help you improve your spoken English ,it would be a better option than just listening to English through any media or maybe equally good .On the other hand if your partner is not that helpful it wouldn't be your best option . A combination of many methods such as speaking in real with natives , listening to spoken English by listening to music , watching TV etc in addition to using voice chat , all together contribute to your progress . A change for the better happens when you concentrate on the quality of the method applied and not necessarily the quantity of methods . A variation is good for making learning more fun and less tedious ,yet without an actual commitment to the one way or the other you won't achieve a real improvement.
