Be a CopyCat

     
     Bear in your mind that English language cannot can be acquired easily. You don't have to spend a lot of money by attending courses to master it. You don't have to forget your custom and culture in order to understand the language. You don't have to travel out of the country just to meet the native speakers and try to act like one. You don't have to do all that. All you need the most is definitely interest. Then guts, practices and enriched vocabs are counted to enhance your language proficiency. Very simple isn't it? Supposedly most of you must have nailed the basic grammar since your school days, haven't you? So I guess the only barriers that you have to get rid off are the lack of exposure and practises, am I right?

    How you could do that??

     Well if you ask me, I would tell you to watch a lot of movies, films, dramas and what nots. Everybody loves doing that. You don't need a lot of money to invest on this fun activity. It is one of the hardest simplest ways to learn English better and faster. How??? A movie for instance has its own story line as well as various of characters. Each character has his own lines or dialogues. Try to imitate the spoken dialogues by using the correct intonation and facial expression. Have them practised with someone right in front of you or merely a mirror could do. Repeat them over and over again until you sound almost native like. Next, apply the same sentences (if they are relevant, of course) in your daily conversation with colleagues and friends. Challenge yourself even better by approaching foreigners (those who aren't criminals) on the street and start having a conversation with them. Dare yourself to do it. Once and for all!!

    Have FUN with the language!!!
