People often ask me for suggestions abouthow to learn English. As for it, everyone is different. I'll share some of my experiences1you. I once took an English course for oneschool year in Peking University, but I mostly2to learnEnglish myself.
One thing I can tell you is that once you'vestarted learning, you should try to think3 English as much as possible. If you see somethingwhen you're riding your bike or walking down the street,4think about "How would I say them inEnglish?" At first, it might be with simple words or phrases, but later youshould think about longer phrases and sentences. Now when I'm in America, and formost of the time, I will think in English and speak it5. It's amazing how much this helps.
For several years after I started learning,I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didn't want to makemistakes. Finally, I6it.And while traveling in America, I'd try to hang out with friends who couldn't speakChinese, so that I'd have no choice but7English.And I also decided that if I said something stupid and other people laughed at me,then so be it. After that, my English started improving8.
