How To Learn English

The question 'How To Learn English' pops up in the mind of every prospective English student. And it's important to think about this for a few moments, before you go out and sing up for classes, or buy English learning material.

Let's first list some the various methods you could chose:

  • Go and live in an English speaking part of world
  • Take English classes from a native English speaker
  • Take English classes from an English teacher (not native speaker)
  • Buy English books and learn from them
  • Buy English audios and learn from them

Total Immersion English Classes

How To Learn English - Tower Bridge LondonIf you have the time and freedom to go live in an English speaking country, then this if by far the best method to learn English. You wil never ask yourself again how to learn English, it will simply happen to you. You are in an Englis speaking environment and can not escape the language, thus you are in 'total immersion' class the whole day long. Thsi is best and you are priviledged, if you can arrange this scenario!

 

Learn English from a native speaker English teacher

Learn English from a native speaker English teacherWhy a native speaker English teacher? Well, even if you master a second language perfectly, you still will speak English entirely as the native English speaker speak it. Therfore, if you have the choice between a native speaker and an Egnlish teacher who speaks English as a Second Language (ESL), go for the native speaker!

Classes are great, they have a few disadvantages though. They are scheduled, and you need to keep some kind of regularity, and if you don't have individual classes but are in a group, the class learns at the pace of the slowest learner in the English language class.

 

Buy English language books

Using books only to learn English is fine, if you never will need to speak or understand a conversation. There are people who onyl need to be able to read write in the English language, and for these, books are jsut great.

English language booksEnglish language books offer you the freedom to learn when you want and where you want, you can take as long to work through a chapter as you need or progress at rocket speed, it's just you who decides.

Should you however also need to communicate verbally, I strongly suggest you first get the verbal part right and then use book to deepen and broaden your knowlede of the English language. But only once you have gotten your accent and pronunciation right and have developed 'an ear' for the English language!

 

Buy English Audios to learn English

This method is the prefered approach to learning English, and it gets you results very fast, if you chose the right English audio courses.

Why?

  • It's closest to the 'total immersion' method you would get when living in an English speaking country
  • You are immediately confronted with English native speakers and their different accents, thus you develop a feeling for the melody of the English language
  • You have the freedom to listen and learn when you want and where you want, no English teacher is needed, the audio is there when you need it!
  • Because you learn full phrases, you will be able to speak and understand English fast, with the right pronunciation. Different native speakers will train your ear!

What students say about the Pimsleur English audios:

Amigos hispanos... si desean aprender a HABLAR ingles, no hay mejor metodo que el PIMSLEUR INGLES, I, II, III... (English for Spanish Speakers). Recomiendo los cursos PIMSLEUR sobre cualquier otro curso de idiomas. Un producto y metodo comprobado y de alta calidad. Un poco caros los metodos, pero valen la pena. Animo y no tengan miedo de hablar Ingles! Un caluroso saludo a todos los hispanos!!! - Jack B. Moscow

 

With patience, commitment, it will work. Just let the lessons wash over you. Then one day, out of the blue, someone will be speaking some words of the Language you studied, and you realize that you really understand, and the proper response just popped out of your mouth. Lordy, lordy! As 'they' say: "It works if you work it, so work it, you're worth it."  - J. Martini, New York City

 

This is for Vietnamese with no English proficiency. My wife was using Rosetta Stone but the birth of our son made a purely verbal program seem like a good idea. She had to jump to level 6. However, some beginners I work with like it and we are going to give it to our nieces. I had Pimsleur for Spanish and think the technique is very effective. - John Bohlman

 

For people who do not have time to go to school or do not have the ability to stay in a class of a lot of people, it is for you. It is your personal teacher that works on your own pace. JUST TRY IT!!!! - Kamla Dulcio, Philadelphia

 

This is the BEST English for Italian speakers on the market today!!!
Highly recommended for English as a Foreign language (as opposed to English as a second language). I teach English in Italy and find that this cd series is absolutely great!!! - N.R. Lewis
