Where Can I Learn English?

[Faceless Men]

I want to learn copywriting. But i am not a native english speaker. So, I want to learn english first. I can write & read english. Very basic but i can't speak as there is no one i can speak to. I can't construct sentrnces when i am speaking

Can anyone share any resources where I can improve
1) Grammar
2) Vocabulory
3) Pronunciation
4) Fluency in speaking

Where are you from? Just get a decent english teacher and pay him to teach you for 3-4 months. I wouldt recomemnd online courses

There are a couple of shares in the forum about learning English.
Anyway, your best bet would be speaking with someone (preferably native), or watching shows. As someone who learned English (not my native language), I have to say that you would probably think I am native.

I could probably dig up some courses on this matter (I also have some copywriting stuff), but the reason I am not sharing them in the forum is that the host is not yet on the list. Anyway good luck!

Language is something that you master by speaking. Watching videos and reading helps you grasp the language skills but you'll only get better by constantly conversing in it. Also writing in your case.

I am from India and i already tried coaching classes. They are not effective. I learned much more by playing video games & watching movies

Talk to people. If that's not possible I'm pretty sure there are softwares that help you do that. There was one in my college library back in 2013. There should be pretty advanced ones out now.

Some of the best non-native English speakers I’ve heard learned to speak by watching TV shows. Download English subtitles so you can see what the words look like in writing and you can keep a translate app on the side to look up the words you don’t know. You can also use Duolingo or similar apps and sites for grammar, vocab, and speaking exercises.

You cant learn speaking if you are not exposed to it, you need to have a speaking buddy to help you out.

Find a better english teacher with great skills and reputation, even its more expensive it will worth You are investing in yourself so dont be cheap. Sure you can learn by yourself, but you will never be good enough to become a copywriter.

If you want to learn on how to speak English, then you just neet to speak more often English.

Easy on the Internet, go on Teamspeak-servers and just talk with others. This will help massively!

Best way is via books and courses topped up by watching lots of English TV programs and films the books will give you the basics but the film's and TV will give you the way real conversation is structured and the little words used that are not taught in a book .Your also pick up the way people interact in conversation via the TV and won't fall into the mistake of using too formal words for example dear and sir are used a lot by non native speaker but if you top up your online/book or teacher taught English with TV and movies your notice dear and sir are not often used expect in certain situations. So I would definitely say a mixture of all the above will help you stand out from the crowd. Know a few non native English speakers who only learnt via classroom and books then when they moved over they where shocked by the way we hardly used a lot of words they learnt and used words in ways they didn't learn in the books which is where either TV or films will help

Have you checked Udemy at all?

I understand your dilemma brother. I was in same position as you couple years ago. I am multilingual, but my writing sucked. I was lucky and got the best EL teacher in Uni. So, the best option imp would be to go to University and read tons of books, write a lot of course. Though there is no substitute to good teacher, you can skip university part and practice on your own too. And, there is a multiverse of information on copywriting.

I still suck, but I think I teach you what I know. I might have better experience navigating resources, and this will help me improve too.
Let me know if you are interested. If I trust ya, I will give you access to my university resources as well. And, I can help you get gigs after you are conf.

HelloTalk, Duolingo, Rosetta Stone. I'm learning other languages. It can be frustrating, but you start to pick up the language, subconsciously, with more exposure.
