Improving english skills

Even though english is not my first language, in my opinion my english can be improved.
We can learn from children's experience in learning new things. They're natural learner and they will master something systematically through education. The two reasons before make me convince that i can improve my english skills.

In the first place, becoming natural learner means we can understand something if we live in its environment. Living in the english environment makes us use and develop our skills because all communication channels are in english. In non-english enviroment we should maximize english usage. For example, writing blog in english, speaking english with some relatives and watching english film at home. All of the things are simple and easy to do and give almost the same natural english environment.

Second, systematic education is the best way to make structural knowledge. Education give basic theory to be used in all english skills. It consists of rule and grammar of using english. Because language is a standard, so it need formal and standard guidance to use. We must master the english grammar to communicate to the others. The better of english grammar we use, the easier foreign people understand us.

In conclusion, i think mastering english is just a matter of time. By doing and learning english, it will make english a common language to non-native speaker.
