HOW RUSSIAN STUDENTS CAN SPEAK ENGLISH BETTER

By: George Ivanov

Hello! My name is George Ivanov and I am from Moscow, Russia. In this essay I will tell you the ways in which Russian students can speak English better.  I will also explain to you some tools that you can use to help improve your English.  Some of the ways you can improve your English is by:

1)  Practicing 2-3 times a week with a tutor at ESL Carnival Academy

2)  Practice you English on www.English-Test.net

3)  Practice the best English game ever: “Warhammer 40,000”

(Each army has his own RULE book that you're able to translate. When you complete the translation you'll have a great book that has 500 translated pages).

4)  Practice your English by playing English video game like "Destiny."

5)  Practice to use your Russian Google translator often

You will ask me: How can I learn English George?  In fact, I have learned how to speak English in many ways, but one of them is the one I like the most of all.  I will tell you about it in a few moments.

One way you can learn English better is to have a personal tutor from the USA, UK or another native English speaking country. My Teacher Gia is from USA.  We have lessons three times a week.  I love learning English with a private tutor. This is really what’s interesting: we can go to different websites and I can take online tests and quizzes.  So, I have a very good teacher.

A second way to learn is through a personal tutor who teaches English but is from Russia.  My Russian’s teacher’s name was Mr. Bob.  His teaching style was very boring, but it produced results. I had lessons for 5 years, so I know English very well.

A third way to learn English better is by taking a class at a school like “Language Link.” That was “not bad and not good.”

But I don’t like it, I HATE it.

I prefer the first two ways. So you can choose the right way for you.

What about the tools for learning English?
