Read as much as possible.  Also, University of Arkansas Press has a book "Writing Good Sentences" that is the best organized English Grammar workbook ever written.  Go to the college website to find it.  The author is a Dr. Faulkner, a professor there who invented the system while he was in the navy and the guys on the ship wanted him to teach them to write when they had spare time.

1. Speak English with people.\n\n2. Watch English TV programmes.\n\n3. Listen to English radio channels.\n\n4. Hang out where people speak English a lot and just listen to them speak. \n\nBut nothing beats practice. Just try to speak it as much as you can with people who can speak it well. Reading more English helps, too, so read as much as you can. Comics, magazines, books, newspapers, and so on.

Firstly READ, READ, READ. It really helps alot. English classes are okay too but set goals, like everyday read a chapter (or less) of a book and any words you don't understand, look them up. Practice speaking and thinking in English, at first it will be difficult and sound grammatical incorrect but you'll get the hang of it soon\n\nAlso tapes and books on English will help a great deal.

Here are some tips which may help you to master the English Language!\n\nSpeak without Fear \n\nThe biggest problem most people face in learning a new language is their own fear. They worry that they won’t say things correctly or that they will look stupid so they don’t talk at all. Don’t do this. The fastest way to learn anything is to do it – again and again until you get it right. Like anything, learning English requires practice. Don’t let a little fear stop you from getting what you want. \n\nUse all of your Resources \n\nEven if you study English at a language school it doesn’t mean you can’t learn outside of class. Using as many different sources, methods and tools as possible, will allow you to learn faster. There are many different ways you can improve your English, so don’t limit yourself to only one or two. The internet is a fantastic resource for virtually anything, but for the language learner it's perfect. \n\nSurround Yourself with English \n\nThe absolute best way to learn English is to surround yourself with it. Take notes in English, put English books around your room, listen to English language radio broadcasts, watch English news, movies and television. Speak English with your friends whenever you can. The more English material that you have around you, the faster you will learn and the more likely it is that you will begin “thinking in English.” . \n\nListen to Native Speakers as Much as Possible \n\nThere are some good English teachers that have had to learn English as a second language before they could teach it. However, there are several reasons why many of the best schools prefer to hire native English speakers. One of the reasons is that native speakers have a natural flow to their speech that students of English should try to imitate. The closer ESL / EFL students can get to this rhythm or flow, the more convincing and comfortable they will become. \n\nWatch English Films and Television \n\nThis is not only a fun way to learn but it is also very effective. By watching English films (especially those with English subtitles) you can expand your vocabulary and hear the flow of speech from the actors. If you listen to the news you can also hear different accents. \n\nListen to English Music \n\nMusic can be a very effective method of learning English. In fact, it is often used as a way of improving comprehension. The best way to learn though, is to get the lyrics (words) to the songs you are listening to and try to read them as the artist sings. There are several good internet sites where one can find the words for most songs. This way you can practice your listening and reading at the same time. And if you like to sing, fine. \n\nStudy As Often As Possible!\n\nOnly by studying things like grammar and vocabulary and doing exercises, can you really improve your knowledge of any language. \n\nDo Exercises and Take Tests\n\nMany people think that exercises and tests aren't much fun. However, by completing exercises and taking tests you can really improve your English. One of the best reasons for doing lots of exercises and tests is that they give you a benchmark to compare your future results with. Often, it is by comparing your score on a test you took yesterday with one you took a month or six months ago that you realize just how much you have learned. If you never test yourself, you will never know how much you are progressing. Start now by doing some of the many exercises and tests on this site, and return in a few days to see what you've learned. Keep doing this and you really will make some progress with English. \n\nRecord Yourself \n\nNobody likes to hear their own voice on tape but like tests, it is good to compare your tapes from time to time. You may be so impressed with the progress you are making that you may not mind the sound of your voice as much. \n\nListen to English \n\nBy this, we mean, speak on the phone or listen to radio broadcasts, audiobooks or CDs i

I suggest you take a remedial English course at your local community college. If you need additional help, hire a tutor. \n\nI think it's commendable that you're taking the initiative for your own learning by trying to become successful in English. Strong skills in grammar and writing are essential if you want to be successful in your career and life in general. It takes a lot of hard work and motivation to succeed in almost anything--including English. Work hard, put forth 100% effort, and you'll succeed. \n\nGood luck to you!

Actually, I think reading books and even watching television can be very helpful. Also, go out and socialize in a group setting with people who speak English with proper grammar. While having a conversation you will hear how they set up their sentences and will easily pick up the essential rules needed in English.

Here's some real help for you:\nhttp://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/esl/index.html\n\nAlso, check your local library. They have books, videos, and audio tapes on how to improve your pronunciation and grammar, all for free. Many libraries also have free ESL programs and conversation groups, as do many local school districts. If you'd add where you are located to your question, I can try to locate specific groups for you.\n\nYou can also hire a writing coach or an editor to help you with your writing. I use WordTechs (www.wordtechs.com). I know they help ESL writers because I've sent many of my overseas friends there for help.\n\nNo matter what, realize that this is difficult and takes time. Don't expect yourself to be perfect right away, and just keep practicing. It takes 2-7 years of dedicated practice to master a new language, and English is one of the hardest.\n\nGood luck,\n~Tia~\nYahoo Brainiac\nhttp://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/asktheplanet/brain.html

Watch English TV shows (or DVDs) and listen to English radio stations. This will help you see how English is used in everyday life instead of just the proper stuff that they teach you in school.

As I said today to another Asker, the following:\n\nI have improved (in my view) English by following steps:\n\n1. Read daily English language Newspapers as a habit and enjoyed reading each and every page from Top to Bottom (in those days when TV was just showing presence in B/W format).\n\n2. Watching English movies and then TV News in English. By the way, BBC Radio (later on BBC World and CNN) helped me a lot while listening to then news of war of liberation in Bangladesh.\n\n3. Having English as medium of instruction and communication in my days in Pak-Swiss Training Centre, Karachi from 1970-1973. PS. I am not sure if the same is continuing now as I can see the present graduates of PSTC are lacking in English.\n\n4. Have a lot of business or friend-circle people whom you can talk / negotiate / chat / SMS / e-mail etc., in English.\n\nHappy English learning!!

Make friends and talk to them.  Ask them to correct mistakes you make instead of just ignoring them out of politeness.  And be happy when they do.  Listen to the radio, to movies, to cartoons, children's programs, be with people as much as you can.  Also, read.  Read children's books to start with, but reading really helps you learn spoken English.  You see words in sentences and context and can look at them for awhile and see how they are used.  Go to the library and ask a librarian to suggest a simple, but intersting children's book with a few chapters that you could read.
