Improving English

The Simple Way to Learn English
I have some ideas about how to improve my skills in speaking English. Speaking English correctly is very important if you live in America. There are several simple ways to learn new words. First of all, I think watching television can help to improve your skills. When you watch television, you can understand new words by figuring out their meaning through images. If you cannot understand the meaning, you need to look it up in the dictionary. The news represents the most difficult English on television. Also, listening to the radio is another method. When you drive, put on the radio and listen to every word they are saying. Finding an interesting station will make your learning process more enjoyable and fun. Finally, talking in English to your friend will do it too. Practice your new words that you have learned from television and radio. Talk to them about your past or future, plan some trips. Combine your learning English with your daily activities and it will make the process much easier.

B)yes do feel confident speaking English outside of class. Because my family, my friend and my wife also speak English. I have two cousins. I take them one in two weeks to have some fun. I have a big family here so we gather often in my aunt hose. And most of my friends speak English fluently and it's easier for me to communicate in English with them. Sometimes it's also easy to argue with my wife.

First year it was really hard to write in English because I didn't have any English so I spend hours with dictionary. Year after year my English getting better but it's not perfect yet. So that is why I'm taking English class. Also I’m using messengers to talk to my friend.
