10 Tips for learning English fast

Tired of being English? 10 Tips for learning English quickly and easily

Speaking English is essential for those who want independence in the United States or any international travel.

1 - First of all, learn to think in English. Train your brain you do not have to translate everything you hear or want to talk. In early may be a little complicated, but be persistent. If you continue always translating everything mentally, you will never have a normal conversation in another language.

2 - Start to read websites in English. My tip is for starts by CNN, BBC, Google News or another site for news, who, if you do not understand something, you'll probably hear the matter again in the news on television or in newspapers and magazines. If the contrast is even better. Try to read the newspaper in the morning and then look for the same news on the Internet. You will get talking "ah, then that is how they say that word ..."

3 - Listen to music in English. In Brazil, there are programs on television that show vídeoclips with subtitles in Portuguese (if I am not mistaken, in Multishow). Once you begin to understand what the letter says, learn slang and no more shame singing all wrong ... No, seriously, it's great to learn English through music. The combination of words happens automatically, and is much easier for you to remember later. If you can not watch video clips with the caption, look under the letter of your Internet favorite songs or take a look at the site Learn English Through Song.
They have songs ready for you to fill gaps with words that are missing. It is very interesting.

4 - Income to the American movie! DVDs to rent and watch movies without subtitles, if possible. If this option is not possible, cover the subtitles. Do this for every 5-10 minutes of film and then watch the same sentence with subtitles. You will begin to more easily associate the words and grammar in English and Portuguese.

5 - As you have done courses in English, if you have not lived abroad, for sure will empacar in a few words, especially if you are trying to schedule your trip on sites in English. A great help I found was a simultaneous translator, the Babylon. You install the program on your computer and where you are reading in English and do not know a word, he translates for you. Or vice versa. It's great because it is fast and not have to stop doing what I'm looking for books and dictionaries. And the best is that it can also be used for conversions. And that you'll need a lot. The United States does not use the metric system, then you will travel in miles, gallons per fill, weigh in pounds and measured in feet or inches. In addition to knowing the weather forecast in farenheits. Do not be alarmed if the forecast for the next day is 100 degrees ... What is not floating, I have always also a converter for portable me know what people are talking about. Download the free Babylon here.

6 - Get a virtual friend. The sites of relationships are made spreading water. In Brazil, Orkut is champion. Try making friends with American or British, and ask them to correct what you write wrong. Sometimes this does not work because many people just by writing 1, 2, 3 pages, and little people will be damned for having a trabalhão help others for free. Even more here ... So, limit itself to write a few lines and you have more chances to win a tutor. Try searching for people to meet in the Friend Finder and MySpace, two of the favorite sites here.

7 - Pass to use English-English dictionaries as well. As well as in Portuguese when you have a doubt you go to Aurelio and have him explain what that word means blessed or gives you synonyms, the same happens in English. Through synonyms, examples and detailed explanations, you will end up taking your questions. And you need not spend money. Take a look at Dictionary.com. It is free.

8 - Have you any contact with English you ever had was only one of the college, your chances are minimal to get along, especially if you want to come live in the United States - until you can watch TV! I could make a huge list of courses, but you know ... Sometimes we are as lazy to go to class after a day of work integer, or it does not give same time ... and we just left behind. I will give a method that has been true in my case. A company called Rosetta Stone offers the best system of distance learning that I have seen. In Brazil, I took courses in English, Spanish and Italian. I learned very well, so that today are the languages I use to work in several countries. And now I'm learning German. I tried several software, but all I found before the Rosetta Stone are very superficial, and in a few weeks I had just forgotten.

9 - And if you've tried everything and want to try something completely different, check out How To Learn Any Language. The concept is simple: by using some techniques, you can learn any language in the world. The author believes many people quit in the middle because it is trying so wrong, and to employ some techniques, learn two, three, four languages at the same time becomes as easy as learning a. This book is a best-seller in the section of language bookstores in the United States, but even if you're interested, you can purchase the electronic book and start reading in minutes.

10 - Keep the rhythm. No use if you work now and then stop for 6 months. You will forget everything! We must maintain a regular basis. If you do not have much time, dedicate at least 1 hour per week. And make that time sacred! If any compromise arise, download its "moment of English" for another day. The most important thing is you really establish rules and follow them. You will save money and learn a lot faster.
