Hello. I understand how you feel. I am learning Korean and I feel my vocabulary is very small. I have been studying the Chinese roots of Korean vocabulary and that has helped a lot. My suggestions: Look for lists of Latin and Greek roots for English words. Make it a goal to learn one new noun and one new verb every day. Look for lists of the most common English words and start checking off the ones you know. I think you my surprise yourself when you see how much you really do know. Go back to your list every few weeks and look at your progress. Watch "Sesame Street" or another English educational show aimed at kids. (I get a lot of good Korean out of Pororo!) Play a the Good News/Bad News game. "The good news is that I got a new car." "The bad news is that I don't have a driver's license" Make up paired sentences to increase vocabulary. Watch an English-language movie with English subtitles on and the sound down. This forces you to read fast and concentrate on comprehension. Write down any words you do not know. I have used Korean variations on these suggestions. I think you are doing very well. Have fun!

Susan has it correct here. You can be understood, which is more than I can say for my Korean. Look up the site "memrise", though. Very nice little website.

#1. I have to agree with Susan, If you think of a Game, someone who never loses never needs to change strategy which means they never need to improve themselves or learn. People only learn if they lose at something, only then is it necessary to learn something new. #2. Finding a list of common English words will help greatly. And as Susan said I can also understand you very well. You may want to look into English Grammar more.. I personally Speak English as it is my Native language but still the Grammar is the hardest part of English to learn. 3. As stated by Gwenley Memorizing one Verb and one Noun at a time would greatly improve your sentence making. Also watching TV shows. 4. If you post into your notebook daily using it more like a Blog other users can help you with correcting any spelling or grammar problems. They will also get to know you. :) You can make friends here to help with your English and perhaps talk with them over Skype to improve even more. The major issue I've noticed with foreigners speaking English is pronunciation. This is because they grew up speaking in their native language and their accent is based from their language. It will be very important to get verbal practice in as well to ensure English speakers can understand when you speak the words as well as write them down. Check this site and see if it will help you. http://education-portal.com/academy/topic/grammar-and-usage-conventions-in-writing.html?gclid=CMzzj-ncvbQCFc1lOgodlSQAUw I only did a quick search for "Learn English Grammar Free"

Thanks for your advice. I really impressed with your comments. So now, I should have to concentrate on my own way to study. Happy New Year.

Your English proficiency for someone who has only been studying since June is very good. I was told a great way to develop skills is to continue building and using your vocabulary, so your plan is good so far. I used to be hung up on grammar the most, but I think most people can understand the words we say to each other, even if your grammar isn't perfect.
