Level 7 Writing: Advice about learning English

by Larysa K.

 

 

When you move to another country, you are faced with the task of integrating into society. In order to join society, you need to learn the language. Here in Minnesota, I had a good opportunity to learn a language at an adult education center. 

 

When I came to this center, I had a small vocabulary. I started working on my vocabulary. While sitting in class, I tried to write down all the unfamiliar words in a notebook and translate them into Russian, so that they would be clearer to me. Sometimes a word without context carries little 
information. In different situations, the same word can have different meanings. Studying phrases in English sentences allows you to better understand and remember phrases and apply them correctly. You need to repeat what you've done,  even if you think you've memorized the words, for example on the topic of weather, and come back to them in a month. 

 

There comes a time when you begin to put your knowledge into practice. Communication is one of the key points to consolidate your knowledge. Of course, it's not as easy as it seems, but we learn from our trials and mistakes.
