Tip #1
Listen to English Music - Listening to English music while doing something else can help to get used to the natural rhythm and tone of English speech. The more and more you listen to a song the more you will learn. So put your favourite English song on repeat!

Tip #2
Travel to an English Speaking Country - Traveling to an English speaking country will force you out of your comfort zone. You will have to try and speak English just to get directions. It's amazing how much of the language you will learn in even just a week.

Tip #3
Read an English Book - Read a book written in English. If you are a beginner start with a children's book. Maybe even a story you are already familiar with. Any words you do not understand you can look up in a dictionary. Practice reading this book until you can read it all the way through and then move on to something harder. ***reading out loud will also help you with pronounciation***

Tip #4
Watch an English Movie - Watch an English movie with subtitle in your own language. It will help you become familair with the words. Have a pen and paper close to write down any new word you learned to practice later.
