   How To Learn English Effectively

Have you ever tried to study English, but it turned out it’s too difficult for you? Well, let me tell you that the language is easy once you keep in mind these golden rules:

▲ Always study and review phrases, not individual words.

Did somebody give you a dictionary when you started learning your native language as a child? No? Then why do you keep using it when studying a foreign language? Memorizing individual words has absolutely no sense without the context. 【小题1】

▲ Don’t study grammar.

When you start thinking about what construction to use, you begin to stammer, stop sounding natural. Your responses should become automatic to master the language, so instead of studying theory – take more practice! When you speak, you don't have time for considering what tense is appropriate, one hundred percent correct. 【小题2】 Grammar is important in writing, not in speaking.

▲【小题3】

One of the most common mistakes when studying a foreign language is relying solely on textbooks. Thanks to them you may know a lot of grammar and vocabulary, but you're still not capable of conducting a conversation. It is because you should learn English by listening and not by reading. If you listen more, you'll grasp useful vocabulary and grammar without even realizing it and without memorizing!

▲ Learn English deeply.

Remember it's always about quality, not about quantity. 【小题4】 When memorizing the phrases (remember the first rule!) slowly, you put them into the deeper parts of your brain so they don't fade away quickly.

▲ Listen and answer, not listen and repeat.

【小题5】If you practice listening with a podcast or a video, pause it every 20 – 30 second and summarize what has been said. You have to think quickly, so you stop bothering yourself with useless grammar and start to speak the real, living language!

Unlike some other European languages, English is a little tricky (棘手的) when it comes to writing. How a word 【小题1】 (pronounce ) and how it is actually spelt can be very different 【小题2】(thing).

Imagine, then, a situation 【小题3】 two words are spelt and pronounced exactly the same way, but have【小题4】

So how do you know which 【小题5】 ( mean) someone is referring to? — You don't, except by the context. Obviously, if someone asks you to "give 【小题6】 (he) a hand", they don't want you to remove what is 【小题7】 the end of your arm.

Sometimes even the context doesn't help much — the result can be 【小题8】 (amuse). These sentences play with the double meaning of a noun:

I used to be a banker, 【小题9】 I lost interest.

A small boy swallowed some coins and had to be sent to hospital. When his grandmother phoned 【小题10】 (ask) how he was, the nurse said, "No change yet. "

"Waiter, will the bread be long?" "No, sir. It's round."

I am looking forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely,
