Learning English Lessons

Minnie Said:

Is there a way to learn English horseback riding without lessons?

We Answered:

No, you can't. If you tried to teach yourself, you'll develop bad habits that will be hard to break. It's best to get lessons from a professional. Also, your horse will need training so it'll know the English commands and stuff.

Nina Said:

Hy, i´am harald from bavaria. Can you help my in english lessons?

We Answered:

You need to go to a language learning site. There must be many that teach English, and many that have networks of native English speakers who are learning German.

Start with livemocha.com

Actually, broadening/improving one's language skills is a very broad concept, it can be done in more than one ways at the same time which is highly recommended. One can NOT become better ONLY in one area e.g. chatting, one MUST improve skills in ALL dimensions of the language!

Learning language well requires being as active as possible and making the learning as FUN for oneself as possible. Taking lessons is always important, but equally important are these:

1) Listen/watch: Listen to internet radio stations like BBC, watch TV shows in English (use only subtitles, NOT voice dubbing!), etc.

2) Write/communicate: Try to find discussion forums from the web about things that you find interesting (music/various artists, hobbies, etc.) and start communicating there with other people using English. Start using instant messaging systems in case you find some new friends or start emailing them.

3) Buy yourself a proper dictionary, and each time when you see a strange word that you do not understand, look it up. Putting words into their context is one of the best ways to broaden one's vocabulary, the more you read and write the better. Memorising is NOT the best way to go with learning vocabulary or any other language areas!

The main point in ANY language learning is to make it as fun as possible for yourself. Try to find topics that INTEREST you, read online newspapers (Times, Guardian, Independent...), listen to BBC/NBC and other radio stations online, if you find a discussion forum for e.g. your favourite hobby or your idols in music do participate there, etc. The key word here is CONTEXT, which means that it is easier to learn new words and their usage as well as grammar when you use/see them in their real CONTEXT.

I'm sorry there is no easy way out with this, one really must develop language skills in ALL these language "levels" or dimensions in order to reach better language skills!!

Last but not least: NEVER EVER use ANY online translators, they are nothing but utter rubbish!! English is practically EVERYWHERE in the online world these days, you just have to use your imagination to find it! Learning pace is always personal, it takes the time it takes so there is no reason to hurry it up too much. If you do, you will not learn so well.

Good luck!

Irene Said:

I am French and I would like to know an school in the United Kingdom to learn English lessons intensive?

We Answered:

Hello, I think that you might want to try contacting the Lewis School of English, they have very good courses including intensive English. They also have a student exchange scheme where you can come and learn English at the school while you live with an English family in their home.
The link below will take you to their website.
Good Luck,
J.
