This week we asked students at New Star High School about the best ways to learn more English. Some said they learnt by using English. Some students had more specific suggestions(具体的建议).
Lillian Li said the best way to learn new words was by reading English magazines. She said that she never studied grammar. She thought it was too boring.
Wei Ming feels differently. He’s been learning English for six years and really loves it. He thinks studying grammar is a great way to learn a language. He also thinks that watching English movies is a good way to watch the actors say the words.
Liu Chang said that joining the English club at school was the best way to improve her English. Students get lots of practice and they also have fun.
