I learn English each day for about 3 to 4 hours somethimes even longer. It’s my addiction as well as my love and biggest aim so for me spending a few hours a day is not a big deal because I do it with my whole heart and just because I want it. I can say, I’m obsessed with English. I watch your videos all the time, I read books in english, I listen to english music and videos so that I am surrounded with the language. I don’t really need to learn more, but for me it will never be enough. It’s a passion. ❤️🇬🇧 Thanks Tom for being such an amazing YouTube teacher!

In my opinion the most important thing is just trying, I mean I used be so afraid to talk with native speakers as I was like oh no I'm not sure, I don't know, I don't wanna sound silly blah blah blah but now I just don't care:D I mean it's always better to say something (even with mistakes) than don't say anything. It's not that easy actually, but I know it's possible! The most helpful thing for me was chatting online with native speakers, it made me more confident. I think the best way to learn foreign language is just being and talking with natives, even online only. The other thing is aping, when I wanna sound British (love posh accent btw) I think of my fav actor or singer and I just try to speak the way I think they would. I mean every way is good if you try, practice and you're not afraid! Enjoy your viadeos so much! Cheers x

I repeat what you are saying on the video outaloud and so that I can get be more fluent. This is how I work out my face muscles. Since I started to do it, I sped up my velocity when I speak and my understanding when I watch TV shows. There is a tool on the VLC player which allows you to slow down the velocity so that you can watch a video in a slower motion.

I read english books, especially thrillers on my Kindle, using the Hachette and the Oxford dictionneries

[emanmahmoud]

Learning English through music and songs is a good and an effective chance to learn English because songs teach us to speak more faster as we are obliged to follow the speed of the song while singnig . This also makes learning a fun and a great pleasure.

[emanmahmoud]

Another important tip for learning English is to learn phrases and sentences. Not to learn vocabulary individually because this work well in conversational English in our natural and real life .

[malazahmed]

And thank you, you are an amazing teacher 💞

The most important tip is to make learning as a habit or an essential part of our daily routine . Yes learning English must be a life style.
