English is one of the most popular languages in the world. It comes second in the number of speakers after
Chinese. In Viet Nam, more and more people are studying English, considering it a key to success. However, not
everyone knows how to learn English effectively.
The best way to improve the four skills, speaking, listening, reading, and writing, is to practice regularly. You
should make use of every opportunity to speak English with friends in class or at English speaking clubs or even with

foreign languages. Practicing speaking a lot is a good way to correct your mistakes.
