learning English. They can use the e technology, e

First
of all you need to search the topic you are looking for
(what's your weakness in English) and narrow it down so
you can research it very easily. For example if it is
grammar that you are looking for then you focus on
grammar. After you have located your topic you can then
look for what type of grammar weakness you have. For
example you like to improve yourself on the past tense.
That means you reached your aim or goal for this
instance. Next you look for past tense drills or
exercises like irregular verbs vs. verbs with ed regular
verbs in the past. You find a list of the verbs you are
looking for and then learn how to know them by heart and
understand them well. If you feel you covered that
that's great. Now you can go to making sentence in the
past tense. Like I went to the college yesterday! And
that's how you start your search on the net until you
find all the topics needed to improve your English.

you will find that you are improving fast. Just remember
focus on what you need to improve as in the examples
above. Good luck!
You
can start by looking at educational links and browse
until you see what you need or what can help you. Look
around and read then decide.
After
that you have found what you are looking for using the
links then you can bookmark or add to favourites. Then
come back to the site and read it or practice step by
step. Do not push yourself take your time.
One important
thing for the students if you are serious about
improving your English, try to learn as many words or
vocabulary as you can. This will build your confidence
in English reading, writing, listening, and speaking.
You can can call this method word bank as you can add
more words every time you learn a new one! For example
if you are in the school try to find any word that you
do not know on a daily basis until you know of them.
Same thing if you are in a supermarket, or hospital, or
a restaurant, airport, and where ever you go!
You can make a
table that looks like this:

Another way to
learn English is to study abroad in an English speaking
country, like England Australia, USA, Canada or many
others. You can apply to study the English course they
offer. There are many places to study and it all depends
on your needs and financial situation! In some cases if
you do not have the money and have high markers in your
school or college you might be able to get a scholarship
to study. These are special cases and you need to apply
for a scholarship.
After you have
located the school or University then you can apply by
email and then by mail to send your original or
certified copies or original transcripts. You wait for
approval after you fill out the application form for
