How does reading our newsletter help you speak English?
The best way to learn a language is by receiving comprehensible input.
We are receiving comprehensible input when we understand messages.
The “input” part means that we are listening or reading. Speaking, writing, and doing exercises is not input.
The “comprehensible” part, means that what we are listening to or reading is understandable to us. This doesn’t mean that we understand every word or every grammar point in the input, but that we understand enough to be able to figure out the rest thanks to context.
When we receive comprehensible input, the conditions are met for our brain to be able to use its natural ability to acquire language, without having to do anything else.
Our newsletter has been created to give you comprehensible input that works, no need for anymore boring textbooks!
How to read our newsletter
Read the newsletter all the way through. Don’t worry if you don’t understand a certain word, just focus on understanding the meaning of the message and enjoying what you are reading.
If there were words you don’t know, reread the text and try to guess what the words mean in context. Make a note of these words if you want.
If you are still unsure, then research what the words mean. Look for the definition of the word in English rather than the translation in to your native language, as this makes it easier for you to use the word in the future.
Repeating this will allow you to learn new words and grammar without any studying!
We truly believe this is one of the best ways to learn English.
