In the case of ways on how to improve English, integrate activities that are geared towards this end in your daily life. Don't look at it as a burdensome chore; instead, treat it as something where you will have a lot of fun. Don't expect too much in such a short span of time. Remember that you are undergoing a process, and you will encounter difficulties and delays along the way. Sometimes you may find that you are undergoing an easy journey, and at other times you may find yourself stuck and unable to move on. However, there will be a lot of interesting things and experiences that you are bound to encounter as you are learning a language.

         Thinking up of ways on how to improve English involves knowing and taking into account many factors: your motivation for learning, your learning style and learning capacity, processes that you have employed to learn a new skill which have worked for you in the past, the knowledge you already possess of the material in question. As a general rule, it would be better to commit to spend a few hours of your time everyday for activities which will enhance your knowledge of English rather than allotting one full day of learning per week. This is because the former approach allows you to be able to retain the concepts of what you are learning better.

• Join a physical English course at your local college or an online class, and make sure to attend regularly
• Read a newspaper, journal, book, even a comic everyday.
