Hi Ed and all,
Today I discovered a good eBook ,it’s name “Business vocabulary in use (Cambridge Professional English)” I’ll start to study this eBook then I ‘ll move to listening I also found good website www.ello.org This will be my way in “How to study English” I hope it’s correct way and not old. Thanks Hani From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Eduardo Costa Sent: Tuesday, August 04, 2009 6:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ESL Podcast] Re: Hello!... and Make Learning English a Habit Hello Hani and Pln Thank you for remember me this lin Pln. Hani, go to page given by Pln and read the articles from Warren ( http://groups.google.com/group/eslpodcast/web/pages?hl=en) I ask how to improve english alone. That´s a great question. Thats´s my own opnion: For english conversation, you need two important things, first be able to organize your thinking in words with your vocabulary(no concerned with grammar rules) and second a understandable pronunciation. Of course that to improve english alone sometimes is not funny, but can be unique way someone have. You can increase your vocabulary reading and writing. It´s what you do here. You can train you brain to organize thinking , speaking aloud to your self what you want to speak. But how to train the pronunciation and have a feedback if your pronunciation is good is the challenge. Listening good stuffs like the podcast from www.eslpod.com you can to train you listening, and using good software of speech recognition like the following you can trains you pronunciation: Nuance - Dragon <http://www.nuance.com/naturallyspeaking/> NaturallySpeaking Speech Recognition Software All this you can do alonw, can´t you ? But this is my opnion and its not based on scientific research, was just a way I found to learn by myself. Take care Ed.
