We have already read many posts about what to do to learn English, how to study vocabulary, basically, you already know how to name all the objects you see, if you are in a restaurant you know how to order and also if you see yourself in an airport you have no problems defending yourself but now it has arrived time to improve your knowledge.

 

Yes, we know, you already think you know the different methods that you have to apply to learn English but now what it is about is to know different methods to have fun and recognize how to improve each skill with a different method.

 

And here we go with the tips, we hope you really put them into practice.

 

BTW, the word tip, apart from meaning "tip" also means "tip" (what you give the waiter when paying the bill). So, you tip something (10%) or you tip somebody (the kind waitress). The tip has other meanings, but I'll write a post about common English polysemic words ????

 

 

Get a perfect pronunciation thanks to poems

 

We start with tip number one, you cannot forget a very important rule, if you do not like poetry or you do not enjoy it, this methodology is not the most appropriate for you, even so we recommend that you at least try it, perhaps the poetry was a hobby that you did not know.

 

Practice reading poetry aloud, in this way you will learn pronunciation, intonation, rhythm, and a fairly advanced vocabulary. Even better if you have a native friend to whom you can read the poetry, it will help you with intonation and pronunciation. You can also translate poems from English to your mother tongue, in this way you will learn vocabulary.

 

We also recommend this poem specially created for those of us who want to improve our pronunciation in English. It's super useful, believe me.

 

 

Learn to express opinions with the news

Start watching the news in English to collect vocabulary and also to develop your listening skills. If you look really motivated you can even write your own opinion essays.

 

You have a couple of recommended options, if you consider yourself to be of a good level and brave, you can read any British or American newspaper, if you see that the level of English offered by the BBC gives you a little respect, try Breaking News English, in this website they collect original articles and edit them to adjust them to other levels.

 

Thanks to the news you will learn vocabulary and formal English that will help you a lot to express your opinion in possible debates or situations where it is necessary to give an opinion.

 

 

Movie conversation skills

Not forgetting that with movies we not only mean to see them but to talk about them. You can also practice from kissanime its free online streaming anime service. If at first, the subtitles confuse you or you see that you cannot follow them, you can always try to download the script and follow it and thus you will have absolutely all the vocabulary of the film. Once you have seen it, either with subtitles or with the script, gather your friends and comment on what has most caught your attention, the plot, or what you most want to comment on.

 

In any case, what you will improve with this method will be the description of things and a casual conversation.

 

 

Improved understanding of idioms

 

The more set phrases you know the better and the more natural your English will sound, try looking for lists with set phrases like this one that will help you have a more fun conversation.

 

With this methodology, you will improve your speech and also speak more naturally

 

 

Increase your confidence using social media

Finally, we are going to refer to the use of social networks to increase self-confidence in relation to learning English.

 

What will you get with social media? Phrases for conversation, street language, and grammar.

 

As we all know, the best way to learn English is by surrounding yourself with English-speaking speakers, but as it is not always possible, the other option is to use social networks, where you can find people who will speak English and with whom you can practice your knowledge either by exchanging languages, in forums, on Twitter or in all the ways you can find on the Internet.

 

And so far the tips, we hope you have learned new ways to improve your English skills.
