Here's my 7 secrets to improving English:1. Make sure that you really want to learn EnglishYou should know why you want to learn English - to pass an exam and go to college or study abroad, to find a good job or excel in the field, or just for fun. The more you're sure, the more progress you'll make in your learning.2. Prepare to take pains and persevereIt takes pains and a lot of effort to improve your English - it's definitely not a breeze (very easy). You'll find it more difficult than you thought. The key to success is to persevere - keep learning and never give up.3. Learn English in a fun wayLearning English can be boring - some books may be too difficult to read. So try to find some interesting, legible(easy to read), reader-friendly books to read. Make your learning an enjoyable journey!4. Don't be afraid of making mistakesEnglish is a tricky language. Even when you've learned all the rules, chances are you'll still make some mistakes in your speaking or writing. In fact, we all make mistakes, no matter whether you're an English teacher or a learner of English. But you should try to learn from the mistakes.5. Learn some grammarGrammar might be the answer to the question 'How to improve English effectively?' Learning grammar can be fun!6. Learn to use some idioms, phrasal verbs, etcYou need to learn some idioms, phrasal verbs, or even slang to make you sound natural. And many members here find this blog helpful!7. Immerse yourself in EnglishTake advantage of the Internet - MyEC in particular. Watch English TVs, movies or videos, listen to English radios or audio, or read articles in English newspapers or magazines. Make you feel like you were living in an English-speaking country where you had to speak English.Hope that helps!
