4 Easy Switches That Will Help Improve Your English
Whatever your level of English language proficiency, it’s always helpful to be reading, speaking, writing or listening to the language every day.
Immersing yourself in the language you are learning can help you become more familiar with it, discover more about it and increase your vocabulary and knowledge of grammar.
If you’re busy, you can easily fit in your language practice while you go
about your daily business. Here, for example, are four easy switches you can make that will help you improve your English…
1. Use English on your devicesWe all use our mobile phones and tablets on a daily basis, so why not
introduce an element of English learning into your usual device activity? It’s easy to change the language – usually, you just need to find the settings, then the language options and select ‘English’. To begin with, it may feel rather daunting, but you’ll soon get used to the different words and commands. You can

If you see a word written several times, you’ll know it’s a popular English word that you will find useful, so make a special effort to learn its meaning. To take this a step further, try switching to watching English-speaking TV shows and movies – they are
an entertaining way to learn more about the language.
4. Listen to English lyrics
You might only listen to songs that contain lyrics in your native
language, but try selecting a song that is sung in English. These songs will
contain many aspects of the English language, including common expressions, everyday language, descriptive terms and slang. It’s also easy to look up the written lyrics of a song on the internet, so you can read the words and then hear them spoken. I
