Top 9 Tips For Improving Your Spoken English





1. Join a Daily English Tip Website
Joining a daily tip newsletter will help keep you inspired in your English studies. Each time you receive the email it will remind you to keep learning and you can go to bed every night knowing that you have learnt something new.
.
2. Listen to English Music.
 When we’re having fun we remember better because our mind is open to receiving more information. So go on, choose your favorite band and learn what their songs mean.

3. Fall in love with learning
If you have a hobby or a passion, you probably learnt how to do it without studying, right? It didn’t feel like studying because you were having fun.

This is essential to learning English. If you hate studying, or if you dislike practicing, it will be very hard for you because your brain will be saying “I don’t want to do this” all the time. Solution? Learn to love learning English.

4. Make time for learning
Choose a time when you’re relaxed and have nothing to do to practice English. Maybe Saturday morning at a cozy cafe? Maybe every evening for 30 minutes before supper.
Make a routine and keep to it. It will greatly improve your chances to learn English.
5. Ask your company to start English classes
Maybe you really want to take an English class but you can’t afford the price. Get together with a group of employees who want to learn English and ask management to sponsor you. A lot of companies do this already!
.
6. Watch English language films in English
We wrote about the importance of watching films in English a couple of weeks ago..

7. Make a vocabulary list
Buy yourself a notebook and keep it as your personal English Learning diary.
Write what your goals are, what motivates you to learn and, most importantly, make a list of the interesting vocabulary words you learn. Write down proverbs, idioms or curious phrasal verbs. When you have time, open your diary and try to remember some of them!
Also, writing notes is a great way to remember vocabulary, much better than just reading and forgetting.
8. Online communication
We love chatting to anyone who is learning English. Ask  questions, share your tips and make friends with other learners so you can form a support group.
Learning in a social atmosphere is always more fun!
9. Record yourself or talk outloud
A lot of students are embarrassed to speak outloud in English, they worry their accent isn’t good enough or that they are making grammar mistakes.
A good way to stop being embarrassed is to talk outloud. When you’re doing your homework say the exercises outloud. When you’re reading an English book read outloud. When you’re listening to English songs sing outloud.

Why? You’ll get used to hearing your own voice speaking in a foreign language. The more you do it, the more natural it will seem.

How To Become A Super Affiliate


 Readers,
Many people have taken the plunge and joined the world of affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing allows you to work for yourself and put your skills, hard work and independence together for you. Success in any business will not happen overnight. It still takes time and effort to get your affiliate marketing scheme up and running. However, if you are persistent, determined and willing to give it your all, affiliate marketing can be the perfect career opportunity for you.

To become the so called Super Affiliate, you should really follow the advice of other successful affiliates. They have been through what you are and know what they are talking about.

One of the first pieces of advice they give is to concentrate on a niche.

Don’t try to sell everything but the kitchen sink:

Concentrate on one thing in the early days. Work out the best way to sell it and get going.

Once you have some strategies worked out you can always expand.

One you have built up a store house of affiliates, you need to know how to promote.

Search engines and the web are usually the best way. If you are confident then you could try pay per click. However, make sure you understand this well. Many affiliates have gone for this option only to find that their profits have been eaten up.

You should take time to know your product and who you’re aiming it for. When you understand both well you begin to build up credibility. People will begin to trust you and what you offer. They will feel much better about giving their business over to you rather than others. This will result in higher sales revenue for you and a much stronger business.

Don’t be afraid to diversify.

Sign up with more than one merchant. Beware of any merchant that wants you to sign up with them exclusively.

By using several merchants you get much more exposure.

You are also protecting yourself if one merchant goes under or does not pay.

Keep on top of current trends in the market. Be prepared to change if you need to. The world of internet marketing is continually changing. By staying flexible and having a willingness to change you can make these changes work for you rather than against you.

Remember, what was working last month may not be this month.

Finally, don’t give up.

It is true that many of these affiliate marketing schemes do fail.

However, the reason isn’t do to poor products or ideas. It’s because people give up way too soon.

It takes time to build any business. Just keep at it. Try to do something every day to promote your business.

If you keep it up you will eventually start to see results.

Affiliate marketing is a great way to make money and work for yourself. You can put your skills and creative knowledge to work for you and not others. Affiliate marketing does take work. You need to build it up like any other business. However, if you stick to the advice in this article and don’t give up, you’ll soon find that your business is booming. Affiliate marketing is a great career opportunity. With hard work and determination you will be well on you’re way to becoming the super affiliate.
