Hey;
My name's Mercedes. For me the best way to improve your English skills is principally surround yourself with the language - the methods to do it are in your hands. In my case, I watched visual content in English, I did all my Google searches in English, I talked with myself in order to find new vocabulary, etc. It’s also really useful to keep a journal so you can practice your writing skills and fluency.

How to learn English 50-70 words

Postby luciaespert » Wed Sep 26, 2018 4:40 pm

Hi, I'm Lucia a student of IES HORT FELIU, from Alginet.
In my point of view to learn English you have to go to classes with someone who knows a lot of English to learn grammar, to write in English and listen to the person speak.
Other methods that I use are listening music and watch series, but not with a very difficult vocabulary, to understand it.

So that the Students from Valencia™ don't start a 1000 threads on "Hi, I'm learning English" just to practice English. I'm personally glad to see people starting a language learning journey. At the same time, the forum is about providing useful content for language learners, so for each thing ... a place.

Hi!
I'm Mónica Blasco and I'm studying at IES Hort de Feliu.I think that when I was a student of 3rd of ESO I had a bad level of English but today I'm very better, but I think that I can improve it more. In my opinion I think that the best form to learn a language is watching videos or series, also you can hear music for learn new vocabulary and improve the pronunciation. In my case that the best form is reading,where I learn much vocabulary because you must find the vocabulary that you don't understand.Also I learn so much watching videos, where there are a lot of new vocabulary for me.

Hello, my name is paula. I'm a student at IES hort de Feliu.
In my opinion a good way to learn English is watching films, listening to music, reading books and write the words you don't know in the notebook and translate them.
In my case, i started learning English in the elementary school, starting with the colours and little by little i learned more english listening to music.
The ways i use to learn Engkish are listening to music, this is my favourite method and the most entretaining too.
I watch films in English with subtitles and with that I learn a lot of vocabulary and pronunciation.
And sometimes I read books in English, is very useful to express yourself better and the writing.

Tips to learn english

Postby patriciamerlobruno » Wed Sep 26, 2018 6:55 pm

Hi everyone,
My name is Patricia and I am 15. From my 11 years studying english I’ve learnt a few tips which can be really helpful for you in order to learn a language.

First of all, if you get used to the pronounciation since you’re a child, your comprehension skills will highly improve and in some years you will understand any conversation.

Besides, if you want to learn vocabulary, there are 2 good ways of doing it: On the one hand you can read as many books as you can (written in original version) and on the other hand you can listen to music of native singers.

I hope you all follow my advices since you won’t regret it. :D
