Improve your vocabulary<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Your vocabulary i.e. the usage of words matters a lot no matter you are undergoing a writing task or a speaking task. Learning English is all about using words in the right context as precisely as possible. <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">You need to read frequently to get good at this. The more words you expose yourself to, the better will be your vocabulary. When you read, underline or highlight the words you are not familiar with a marker. <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Try to understand the contextual meaning of these words. You can also look at the dictionary to understand the meaning more clearly. Also, reading English newspapers and listening to English news will expose you to a number of new words. <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">After learning a new word, you should practice using it. When you use new words often, you will be able to speak more fluently. According to research studies, you will have to repeat the new word 10 to 20 times to make it a part of your day-to-day speech.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #339966;\"><strong>Additional Tips:<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Record phrases and expressions to use in different academic contexts.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Use a good dictionary to check proper word usage.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Do not spend too much time learning highly specialized or technical words.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Record meaningful and useful expressions related to any topic<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Practice writing and talking in English.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Read newspapers, magazines, blogs, and listen to podcasts to learn more.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #000080;\">2. Read as much as you can<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Always keep an English-English dictionary handy so that you can refer to meanings when you come across new words.
