Have we ever think that our English skill isn’t good? Or have we ever think that our English skill isn’t improving? Many people want to speak english fluently. But we aren’t too brave to speak english or too lazy to learn English. Some of us might think English isn’t too important because English isn’t our mother tongue. Even though some of us think like that, i’m sure that many people want to speak English fluently. If we want to make our English more better, we must practice everyday. So, how to improve our English skill? What we can do is that we must read a lot of English book, follow some accounts on social media which share a content using English, and make a lot of friends on social media who can speak English well.

First of all, read a lot about English. For example, we can read an English book such as novel. Why should novel? Because in novel there’s a lot of words that we can get and we can translate it if we don’t understand. If we read a lot about English, i’m sure that our English will be improving in day by day. Then, if we find some words that we never heard before, we must write it on our note and translate it in word by word. So, we can add some vocabs in one day.

I’m sure that we have a social media such as instagram, twitter, whatsapp, etc. At this point, we need to follow some accounts on our social media which share a content using English such as English quotes, English meme, a person who teach english on their social media, etc. I’m sure that we always open our social media everyday. So, when we open our social media, we will read a lot about english and don’t forget to write a word that we never heard before.

The last step, make a lot of friends on social media from another country or someone who can speak English well. After that, make an English group chat, so we can have a chit-chat with them using English. The question is ‘how to make a friend on social media?’ some of us have some hobbies, right? Find someone who has a same hobby as us. For example, if we are a kpop-lovers and always have a fangirling time on our social media such as twitter. We definitely followed some kpop fanbase, but we need to follow an international fanbase because they use english when they give some information. Don’t forget to check their followers or following, then follow some people who follow that fanbase and don’t be hesitate to ask them to have a chat with us. If we have a chat with them everyday using English, we will improving our English skill indirectly.

As we know, learning English isn’t very difficult if we have the desire to learn it. Maybe, the most difficult one is about the grammar, but if we want to speak English, just speak. Don’t think too much about the grammar, it will be improving as we speak English more. However, if we want to improving our English skill, we must practice everyday.
