task 2. read the opinions what is the best way to learn a language?
this week we ask students from all over the world for their ideas,
josef. check republic
i think it's really hard to learn a language if you don't have anyone to talk to. i have joined a social
networking site where i can chat in english to lots of other people like me. i am more interested in
using english to communicate than anything else, so i don't mind if my grammar isn't perfect.
gloria. brazil
my favourite way to learn a language is to go to a language school and join a class. there are classes
for many levels of english, whether you are a beginner or you are have been learning for a long time.
it's great when you have other students in the class and you can learn and practise together, and of
course having a teacher to help you is really important. it's good to do your homework too.
luis. spain
i love books, and in my opinion, you can learn a lot of new words by reading in english. my journey
to university is quite long, so i usually read books on my e-reader. you can click on difficult words
and get a translation, which is very helpful.
marit. norway
i am a big fan of english pop music, so i spend a lot of time listening to different songs at home on
my ipad. i've downloaded a new app that puts the lyrics on the screen and translates the song for you
at the same time. i really enjoy learning english like this, and it's very good for my pronunciation,
too.
