Comment posted How to Study English 7 Tips and Ideas by Myn.
According to my experience when learning English (It’s not my primary language)
1. I started learning English from reading (playing a game) and using a dictionary.
2. when i started learning English i have no access to internet nor a English radio/film. And back then game haven’t used voice actor. As a result my listening skill is quite bad compared to reading skill.
I have a friend who often watch movie/film without subtitle. And as far as i know his listening skill is quite good.
3. I have some friend who is English native speaker, and chat with them really help my English skill, especially how to respond quickly
4. Most of my vocabulary was learnt from reading/playing a game.
5. I rarely use this method, but instead i’m using English to English dictionary which sometime “force” you to look at another word while looking for one word.
6. Writting a blog also help much, especially in writting skill. You can get a new friend and share your life with friend. Killing two bird with one stone.
7. Nah, i do not have the chance to go abroad yet. But it surely will help you learning English, since you have to use that to communicate

Hi Myn and thanks for your comments.
You’ve raised a very interesting point about different learning methods Myn. Your language skills really can develop in different ways, depending on how you study. For me personally, watching tv in Thai, for example, really did help me develop my listening skills. But don’t even ask me about writing it haha!
Yes, using an English to English dictionary is a great way of doing things. So too is a thesaurus for learning new words. Also I really do think that blogs are a great way for students of a second language to practice and develop their skills.
