How did you learn English, Как вы изучаете английский язык

oh... it's a long process. I have been learning English for many years. regular classes, spacial classes, with teachers and tutors - you name it! at some point it became just a self-eduction. I talk, read, write and think in English. 'cause I need I and just for fun.

I think watching tv shows in English might be an effective way to learn the language. I've been advising my friends to start doing that, but apparently they are too busy.

Inthernet, textbooks and all that... If honestly, english very complex for me, I more simply account french

I can say that this is the most effective method. I've been studying english since I was 7. School, courses, then university (I have a degree in english language & literature). Most of my courses in university were basically useless. I still suck at grammar.

I had to stay at home for a couple of month. I started watching Tv shows in english - regularly, every day. My level improved just after 2 or 3 months. I still do that everyday (well, when I have time), also I read news, fanfiction, spoilers|other tv-show related stuff.

The worst part is that you forget the language as soon as you stop using it (french, german, czeck, slovak - been there, done that).

Ами, I agree about the last part, I don't remember French whatsoever.

What tv shows have you been watching for those few months?

Яна, a lot of them)) Specifically I remember Gossip Girl, Bones, Pretty Little Liars, Body of Proof, The Mentalist (the favorite one of this whole bunch). These are shows I watched from the beginning. Also I was keeping up with Castle, Vampire Diaries and something else. I can't remember what.

But Fringe (half year later) was the real challenge. Because of Walter. I could barely understand him without subtitles before I got used to his "style" and crazyness.

TV shows in English forever! it's a funny and effective way to improve some aspects.

Also I enjoy reading books of English writers in original)

Scarlett1111, oh! What kind of books?

I prefer american authers. Their language much easier for understanding.
