To improve English comprehension, one must focus on pronunciation, memorization, listening skills, grammar study, and conversation practice. Specifically:

3) Listen to English media like music, movies, news daily to develop listening skills.
4) Study grammar through analyzing sentences from listening materials rather than textbooks.
5) Practice conversations in English without being shy to improve speaking ability.
The most important thing is to listen to English every day while also speaking it regularly.

Overall, language carries subtle meanings that can easily be misunderstood between cultures.

How to learn English outside the classroomkzakrzewska
This document provides tips for learning English outside the classroom, including using grammar and vocabulary books, reading books and materials in English, listening to English radio and music, watching English-language films and TV shows with subtitles, studying English online, and discussing learning strategies with a partner. It emphasizes that the learner is in control of their own learning process, not the teacher. Methods for remembering new vocabulary words are also listed, such as reading word lists repeatedly, translating words, drawing pictures, and writing words in sentences or with opposites.
1) Many myths prevent people from learning English effectively, such as that English is too difficult. However, the facts show English has a simple alphabet and grammar.
2) While English has many words, commonly used words make up a small portion. It is not necessary to learn all words in a dictionary.
3) With practice and exposure to English content and media, learning English is easier than most believe. It is best to start with reading and writing before speaking. Confidence and a natural accent are more important than perfect pronunciation.
The document discusses conditional sentences and common mistakes that can occur when traveling abroad for the first time. It provides two examples of situations involving conditional sentences:

This document discusses natural ways for non-native English speakers to improve their spoken English skills. It notes that while many focus on studying grammar and vocabulary, this does not directly translate to speaking ability. It recommends that adults learn as children do, by repeating common phrases and word combinations they hear every day. Memorizing frequently used expressions will help non-native speakers improve their spoken English more quickly, as fluency is built from word chunks rather than separate words. The key is focusing study on the spoken aspects of the language through imitation and practice, rather than traditional grammar-focused methods alone.
The document provides examples and explanations of embedded clauses. It defines embedded clauses as groups of words within a main clause that are usually marked by commas. Embedded clauses provide additional information about the topic of the sentence. They are dependent on the main clause and do not make sense on their own. The document gives examples of different types of embedded clauses including nominal clauses introduced by words like "that" and relative clauses introduced by words like "which." It also contains exercises for identifying and adding embedded clauses to sentences.

1. Learning involves having expectations, experiencing failures of those expectations, and adapting one's understanding based on new explanations. True learning happens through doing, failing, and receiving just-in-time teaching to try again.
2. Many students' goals in school are not focused on learning, but rather on getting good grades, credits, or pleasing parents. Half of students are disengaged from or undermining the learning process.
3. For real learning to occur, students should be learning disciplines through practice, not just learning about them. The future of education involves applying skills like prediction, modeling, and teamwork to authentic experiences.

Here are 9 out of 24 tips on how to overcome fear of failure. For 13 more tips of this type, click the link: http://vkool.com/how-to-overcome-fear-of-failure/.
1. Identify Causes
Identifying where the fear of failure starts is the first step to get over it. You should sit down, breathe deeply, and try to figure out why the fear of failure appeared. The reasons may be negative thoughts, pessimism, or wrong predictions.
2. Research Alternatives
You should think of as many potential consequences as possible. Doing it this way helps you aware of all difficulties you may have, and be able to determine what should be done for success.
You should prepare at least one alternative solution to use when the initial plan does not work.
3. Treat Failure As A Lesson
One of the most efficient tips on how to overcome fear of failure is to consider it a good lesson or experience. If you fail this time, you will still get something called experience. With this experience, you will get success easier next time.
4. Make A Concrete Plan
Making a concrete plan is another tip on how to overcome fear of failure. What you need to do is to prepare carefully for every single step in the plan. The more detailed your plan is, the easier the success comes.
5. Take Action
The best way to eliminate fear of failure is to take action. Practice makes perfect. Taking action is a chance to experience the facts and gain knowledge. If you dare not do anything, you will never know how to do them right. Everything is difficult when you do it the first time. After that, it will be easier.
6. Balance Your Life
No matter how important the success is, you should still balance your life with other activities rather than focusing on the success only. You should spend time doing your hobbies to refresh your body and mind so as to come closer to success.
7. Believe In Yourself
You should believe that if you try, you will be able to overcome difficulties. Do not give up easily. If you try hard, you will have chances to succeed no matter how hard the case is. If you give up, you will no longer have any chance to be successful.
8. Learn From Others
Learning from others’ stories or successes is also a tip on how to overcome fear of failure. Successful stories will encourage you to move forward. You can also learn from those people the way to carry out their plans for success.
9. Free Your Mind
This is the most important technique on how to overcome fear of failure at work and in life. The fear is from your mind. If your mind is full of negative or pessimistic thoughts, it will create fears. Therefore, you should learn to clean, and refresh your mind by doing yoga or meditation every day. The quieter the mind is, the better it can hear and see, and the easier you can get success.

2. Reason #1
reaching international audience
you will be able to write comments online in English
and express your views to a much broader audience
on a wide variety of issues that bother you.
These issues include but are not limited to
stupid government, inefficient transport system,
the weather, irresponsible dog owners,
spoilt kids in restaurants
and your in-laws.
3. Reason #2
improving career prospects
you will be able to rub your boss' nose
in a grammar mistake in his email in English
to the company’s foreign partners.
Make sure you demand promotion
on the grounds of
being bilingual and having
excellent attention to detail.
4. Reason #3
optimising travel expenses
you will be able to speak to waiters
when you are on holiday abroad.
If they don't reply in fluent English,
complain about the poor service and don't leave a tip.
Note: don't try it in Amsterdam,
as they all speak English there
and if you piss them off
they will run you over on a bike.
5. Reason #4
increasing e-commerce &
information sourcing opportunities
you will be able to enrich your online shopping experience
buying stuff you don't need from all over the world.
And then (ahead of all your friends who don't speak English)
master the newest system of getting rid of the stuff you don't need,
the system so new,
they haven't yet translated the book
sharing this wisdom
into your native language.
6. Reason #5
getting authentic movie experience
you will be able to enjoy movies starring
Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original
and secretly feel superior
because your English accent
is much better than his.
7. Reason #6
the queen of England
you will be able to write a letter
to the Queen of England
and ask her to adopt you
as one of her loyal dogs.
Don't forget to say ‘please’.
8. Reason #7
revamping self-expression
you will be able to fearlessly write graffiti
on walls in two languages
and once caught,
explain with dignity
that it’s language practice
not vandalism.
9. Reason #8
honing practical skills
you will be able to authentically shout ‘Taxi’
in New York
like they do in the movies.
Not that it will help you
get one at a busy hour.
10. Reason #9
fully appreciating pop culture
you will be able to understand
all those pop songs
in English,
cringe
and stop listening to this shite.
11. Reason #10
looking great & feeling smooth
you will be able to watch millions
of YouTube videos
teaching you
how to iron your shirts,
socks and undergarments
correctly.
12. Reason #11
updating parenting style
you will be able to do your kids’ homework
in English
and let the poor children
rest instead.
After all kids
should relax at home,
not do stupid homework.
14. Reason #13
enhancing holiday experience
you will be able to casually remark to the hospitality staff
at the hotel you are staying at,
that your negative review on Trip Advisor will be in English
for the whole world to know
that the croissants for breakfast were stale on 3 July
and the water in the outdoor pool
was uncomfortably cold for you
after sunbathing.
15. Reason #14
the British
If you focus on the British English,
you will inevitably adopt
some of the ladies & gentlemen
culture and...
16. will be able to offer your apologies on all sorts of
possible occasions:
if you burp, if someone else burps,
if you behaved like an idiot, if someone else
behaved like an idiot and you saw it,
if you pushed someone accidentally, if someone
pushed you accidentally
and also just in case so that people around don't
think you are being rude.
17. once addressed by complete strangers,
you will be able to elaborate
on weather predicaments of all sorts
for half an hour in a row.
And know a hundred and one expressions
to describe rain.
18. you will be able to stay calm
and carry on being polite
even if someone punches you
in your stiff
upper
lip.
19. If you think that these reasons are
not convincing enough,
you should learn English because...
21. And of course
Reason #15.5
because these slides are in English.
In case you didn't notice.
Happy learning!
