To improve pronunciation, I could listen from speaking
accent of native speaker. As for me I try to get good
pronunciation through listening English News Channel like BBC World News, Bloomberg Channel and so on.
To improve vocabulary, I could read upgraded English
level book like advanced one and then memorizing new vocabularies and try to use these new words in my own sentence.
To improve writing skill, I could read a lot. For writing a
good topic, I need to have enough topic related vocabularies and some sort of knowledge and idea.
To improve listening skills, I could just listen every
dialogue of English conversation and then firstly try to catch what is the main idea and topic and after that I could learn how to use which vocabulary in which sentence and style. By listening English conversations like as of our daily activity, we are used to with these tones and voice and after all we will be proficient in listening skill.
To improve grammar, I could learn the nature of
grammar and how to use right grammar. We need to have the knowledge of which tense to use in which way of sentence. We can learn these grammar skills via 4 skills.
My strongest skill is listening skill followed by reading skill.
The skill which need the most practice is I think, the
output skill, speaking and writing.
To improve my skills, I'm going to practice more to
speak English fluently not because I am bad at speaking skill but because I just need to be familiar with speaking English. For about writing skill, I need to read a lot academic written book like paper, journal and essays etc. and then I need to practice and write down some sort of practice topic. As for me I always learn English through receptive way via listening and reading and I rarely make output skill like reading and writing. So I think to be good at 4 skills in language learning, we need to be practice these skills in a regular balance way.
