Ways to get motivated with English self study.

5. Read e-books, articles and online magazines:

Reading is as important as listening when learning English. Reading and listening both sharpen the mind and train you to think in English too. The more you read, the more exposure to English sentence structure, new vocabulary, and formal and casual speech patterns you get. This means you have a whole lot of sentences to choose from when you start to speak English.

The internet is a treasure trove of English e-books, articles and magazines. Find a resource with a topic that you’re really interested in.

6. Write about something you're thinking about:

It doesn’t have to be a published article online, you can simply start with a personal journal. Writing your own piece puts all your learning together—how much you know about English grammar, vocabulary and overall understanding.

After writing, feel free to check your own work for any errors. To do this, it’s best to put your composition in a file so you can use grammar checker programs to locate mistakes and errors in your work.

7. Speak English wherever you go: 

As much as possible, try and speak English wherever you are and wherever you go, even if the person you’re talking to isn’t really fluent. It’s all about communication!
