We asked some of the English class students at NEW to share their top 10 tips for learning English and to share why it’s important for them to learn a new language. “Learning English is a challenge,” says one student. “But it is important for immigrants. It can help people to adapt to a new country.” Another student added, “I want to speak English without hesitation so I can communicate easily and be self-reliant in society.”

Here are the tips they wanted to share.

  1. Speak English to anyone or English speakers.

  2. Listen to TV, radio and people speaking.

  3. Read simple books (try kids’ books.)

  4. Learn to use your phone dictionary.

  5. Download English learning apps like Duolingo.

  6. Youtube education videos.

  7. Learn from kids.

  8. Collect new words in a small notebook.

  9. Attend community activities and workshops.

  10. Play language games on your phone.
