Gone are the days when it was difficult for the non native speaker to get good without a good background where one could acquire this language: Good teacher , good books and the circle of friends and acquaintances who spoke good English
In my day we did not have the computer (as an addition )to assist to acquire a language . We had good teachers and the environment was such we spoke English :at home at school at work and at play and not forgetiiing we read a lot .
Of course that changed thirty five years ago in my country when the education system and the medium of language was changed to the natiohnal language
Through online one can achieve ones goal on getting the best as there are excellent sites one can rely on such as English Club , British Council learning links .
Through a social and educational link one gets motivated and focussed that ther e are people who are there to help you ,takes away your fears that your not the only one with difficulties in fluency, pronounciation and communication .
These many social links gather multitude of people ,gender race under one beautiful umbrella sharing ones experiences and learning all the way in an awesome way
Listening on line
listening to fluent speakers we are able to correct our selves and acquire the correct pronounciaton and further develop our vocabulary and understanding
Listening while speaking makes us less conscious of our selves in making mistakes , especially online . well no one knows you ;)
Writing on line
With every step of writing blogs , commenting on blogs and with the help of the feed back of good friends and members , one is able to achieve and practice a good presentation and writing style .
Reading
"Reading perfects man "
There is no time to sit and read , yet on the net we have time to read mails, chats, news , blogs also welcome and free of charge E books
Finally Speaking
When we get to know people or contacts we connect with them through Skype or other mode and speak or chat
Chatting on conference with folks from all over the world gives us a good opportunity to learn their respective culture, accent and to communicate and have lasting friendship

Thank you very much for the nice blog, Dear Nadira!
Thanks for participating in this month's writing challenge! You have so many great tips here. I like that quote about reading. Do you know who said it?
Learning and improving the language need an everyday activity .It's not only through books and courses ,but also listening to native speakers in the radio ,films ,songs ....and also talk and talk ...this is what we really need ...choosing the correct words and verbs during our conversation is not an easy and it needs only practice !
Thank you dear Nadira for sharing these important tips !
Best wishes !
