with the people’s names.

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO LEARN A LANGUAGE?

This week we ask students and teachers from all over the world for their ideas.
Peter, student, Hungary
Find something interesting to read in the language you’re studying. Reading really
helps you learn new vocabulary and grammar. I’m studying French, and I try to read a
little French everyday – you don’t have to spend a long time doing it, maybe just five
minutes looking at a French newspaper or website.
Ana, student, Spain
I think you have to concentrate on pronunciation from the beginning. You don’t have
to pronounce words perfectly, but you mustn’t pronounce them in a way that people
won’t understand. I practice English pronunciation by repeating words after the tape
or by saying the words in my head.
Elke, language teacher, Sweden

ED REVIEW TEST 2 | TOEFL IBT – COURSE 1 2

You have to listen to the language as much as you can. In Sweden a lot of people speak
very good English, and I think it’s partly because there are TV programs in English, so
you hear the language a lot.
Sompong, IT consultant, Thailand
I don’t have a lot of time for studying, but I think that the Internet is an incredible
resource for learners of English around the world. Everybody with a computer has
access to millions of pages of English and you don’t have to leave home – in a few
seconds you can find something interesting to read. You don’t have to be studying to
learn a language – you can be enjoying yourself.
Konrad, student, Poland
I think you have to have a good dictionary; it can really help you learn a language. It
tells you what words mean, but it also gives you information about how words are
used together, phrases expressions, and pronunciation.

1. _____________ says that you don’t need to have perfect pronunciation.

2. _____________ and _____________ think that having a computer will help you
learn.
3. _____________ thinks that a good reference book is important.
4. _____________ thinks that if you hear a language, you’ll get better at speaking it.
5. _____________ says that reading can improve your vocabulary.
