Studying English is difficult. This is the statement that some people think. Because of this, people are lazy to learn English. Some of them try to find many ways to help them to improve their English. The others try to give up learning English. What I would like to share my idea with you is how to improve your English easily. There are a few ways how to practice your English. They are singing a song, telling a short interesting story, watching a film on TV and practicing your English with your friend.

Before you start singing a song, you have to look for a song which is very interesting and simple. For the first, you could buy an English cassette. If you do not have money, you could borrow it from your friend. Next, listen all songs. After that, choose a song which is very interesting, simple and gives a good impression to you. Afterwards, you listen the song many times until you are familiar with the song, After that, write it word by word. Then try to understand the meaning of each word. Finally, sing the song every time, while you are in the bathroom, in bedroom or wherever you are.

The second way which is very important is how we practice to tell a short story. First of all, choose a short story which is very simple, interesting and easy to understand. The short story should contain four or five sentences. Next, read it in three times. Then understand the meaning of the words. Finally, tell the story by using your own words in English to somebody you know or other people you are familiar with.

Films usually create peoples idea. So that, I think you could create your English through watching a film. Initially, choose a good film which is you like such as a comedy, horror, action film or any other kind of film. Follow the story of the film without focusing too much on the vocabulary. Watch a film whenever you could. The last, tell the story to your friend. Do not care of making mistakes in structures.

After you have already followed the steps above, now you could discuss your problem with your close friend in English. For the first time, you just say hello to your friend or talk simple topic or make a cheat about what you have done. If there is no friend you could talk to, find person you could talk about, example your brother, sister, father or mother. If you find them difficult to do, come to UPPB at PNJ.
