English Study Tips

Most of students feel English is difficult, moreover if we should
study about grammar and vocabularies. Here there are some study tips
you can practice, who knows that you will improve your English;-)

# TARGET

Set small target of your study, example:

- learn 5 English words everyday ( Monday to Friday); review then on
Saturday and relax on Sunday
- read and learn a short English text every week
- listen and learn an English song every week, etc

Reaching your target step by step is much better than setting a huge
target that you cannot achieve. Easy does it … and keeps your
motivation up.

Many a mickle makes a muckle.


# MOTIVATION IS THE HALF WORK

"Boring!" Well, that's definitely not the way it works.

Try to find a positive aspect to studying. You can watch you favorite
movies in English or listen your favorite song. Then, you can write
down some useful words or phrases that you want to remember and try to
understand what they are about. Or check out celebrity sites and learn
more about famous actors, bands and other stars. This sure is good for
your vocabulary and on top of that – it's lots of fun.

Always look on the bright side of life.


# DON"T OVERDO

Limit your study! Studying 15 minutes per day is more effective than
studying 2 hours once every week. For a whole week, try studying 15
minutes each day. Not less. And definitively not more than that (even
if you could). You will see that the following day, studying is much
more fun, simply because you didn't push it to the limit the day
before.

Know when to stop before you start.

# TREAT YOURSELF

Everybody notices what you failed to do. But nobody appreciates what
you succeeded to do. That's rather frustrating, isn't it?

Appreciation is always a good motivation. And if nobody else
appreciates your efforts, you'll have to do it yourself. Set a target
for the day, the week or the term and do also set a reward for
yourself that you can look forward to, e.g.:

If I achieve the target, I will treat myself to ...

an adventurous monster killing game on my computer
a visit to the cinema at the weekend
a short trip to London
...

If it's a long-time target, write your reward down on a piece of paper
and hang it up in a place where it catches your eye. This sure will be
a good motivation.

Go for it!

# FIND FRIENDS TO STUDY ENGLISH

Meet friends and study English together.

You can repeat your English vocabulary, do your homework together and
help each other with English grammar. And why not try one of our games
on ego4u. Studying with friends simply is much more fun.

It's also a good oportunity to exchange ideas on studying in general.
Maybe your friends have found out about a good way of studying more
effectively. Or, who knows, maybe you can advise your friends on this?

All for one and one for all.
