Thank you so much for downloading and using my free ESL audio and ebooks.

These ebooks and audios will definitely help you to improve your English. You’ll have to give enough time and a lot of practice.

I’d like to make a few suggestions to help you learn faster and better.

1. Listen. Listen to English talks and conversations as much as possible. Listen to radio and TV programs. Listen to native speakers. Listen to audio courses. You need to listen a lot, really a lot – many, many hours every day. Listen to audio programs even while you are cooking or driving.

2. Speak. You receive the language by listening, and you produce the language by speaking. You become a good speaker only if you speak a lot. You can speak with your friends and family. Or you can even speak with yourself. Have a conversation with yourself. Speak on different topics.

Important: When you’re listening to the audio, pause it now and then, and repeat what the speakers are saying. You can even have a conversation with the speakers on the audio!

3. Read. Read anything you like – novels, comic books, magazines, newspapers, brochures. Reading will develop your vocabulary and sharpen your thinking. It will make you an intelligent speaker.

4. Write. Writing is the last skill. Yet it is important. It helps you to remember things better because it involves muscle memory. Try to write the things you listen on the audio. You can also write short notes, poems, letters and articles. Of course, it will be difficult at first to write anything fluently at first. But remember, practice makes perfect.

I’D LIKE TO WISH YOU ALL THE BEST.
