Take a look at our previous language webinars! With Janek and more:)
Remember, there is no universal method for learning a foreign language. Find your own way, pay attention to what you like. You love books – read them in English. Do you like TV series? Watch them in that language (with subtitles at the beginning). It helps you to write down vocabulary, that’s a good thought too!
So far, our webin experts have identified four methods of effective education:
- Immersion
- Sentence Translation
- Tandems
- Applications
A few words about immersion
Immerse yourself in the language. Try to feel like a native. Surround yourself with English. Watch TV shows, shows, movies, movies in target language. Listen as much as you can! It doesn’t matter that you don’t understand anything or much at first. Use audiobooks. Be patient and consistent, eventually words will become a part of your life. Let Shakespeare’s language be your number one! Do you have a passion? Study it in English.

Sentence Translation
Listen, speak, repeat. Try to catch whole sentences. Use radio plays and podcasts. And remember, practice. Your speech apparatus has to get used to a different tongue or mouth pattern.

In other words, learning in pairs. Try to exchange (also knowledge and competences). Teach your native language and have someone teach you English. Find an interlocutor, a tandem-partner, who will guide you through English, point out customary phrases, correct your pronunciation, etc. It’s a buddy.
Want to start talking? You need words! Make the most of every free moment. Instead of looking in a window or browsing FB, use apps, online courses, learn words, phrases, phrases.
