Take English Home

One way to learn English faster is to take it home with you. Here are some ideas.

1. If you have a friend or family member who speaks English, ask them to talk with you in English for 15 minutes. You can do this several times a day. If they correct your mistakes, just say "thank you," and keep on talking.

2. Sometimes when you are shopping, you might see one employee who looks like an English-only speaker and another one who looks like he or she might speak your language. Go to the English speaker for help. It is the employee's job to be patient and to try to understand you.

3. When you are shopping in a store with a machine where you can check yourself out, choose English as your language. If you don't understand an instruction, you can always ask a clerk for help.

Try it! The more you try, the more you'll learn.
