Reading is a great way of practising your English in your own time. You can take one word at a time at your own pace, without your teacher peering over your shoulder. If you’re studying at a beginner to intermediate level, pick up a children’s book where the language will be easier than an adult book.

Newspapers are also worth reading. Not only can you improve your English but you’ll learn about local and national goings on, which can be handy when communicating with native speakers. Free newspapers and magazines, as well as tabloid-style newspapers which use more basic language, are perhaps better for low level speakers.

Nowadays, English is widely spoken all around the world, it’s the national language in many countries. Since we are Vietnamese, our English might not be as good as the native speaker’s.

Many people like reading books in English because they can develop their knowledge, vocabulary and grammar, the others choose to talk with foreigners so as to gain their confidence and improve their way of speaking English.
