As of our survey in General Engineering 1-F most of them answer most
of the time in ten questions. They have good attitudes towards the
English language and they can improve it by: Listen to the radio in
English. If there are no English radio stations where you live, listen to
one on the internet. Watch TV and movies in English. If you have
English channels on your TV, watch them. If they have subtitles (the
words written in your language) underneath the picture, see if they can
be turned off. Some people even tape paper across the bottom of the
screen so they can't see the words. Most DVD's are great because you
can choose the language you want to hear. Speak English to your
friends.

Get a conversation buddy (friend) and speak in English as much as

possible. If it is a person whose native language is the same as your
own, you may feel silly speaking in English at first. But don't worry.
Continue to do it and it will become more natural to you. Finding
friends whose native language is English is even better. Ask your friend
to correct you when needed. Study or travel to an English-speaking
country. Of course the best way to immerse yourself in the English
language is to live in an all English environment. You'll find yourself
surrounded with the language everywhere you turn. It can be a more
difficult and expensive choice, but you may find it to be a very valuable
and helpful experience. Other ideas. Take an English class, join an
English group, find a tutor, read English magazines. Do whatever you
can to immerse yourself in the language.
