The Fastest Way To Memorize! - Fresh Mind

2012-01-21T11:05:00.000-08:00

New research reveals the most effective way of learning.

This is a new method of learning and studying material. Research concludes that it is the most effective way of learning.

In my research I found that the average person remembers 40% of material they learn by listing words. This rises to 60% when you associate these words with mental images. But by making a quick story in your head you can double the results with 90% of the words. In fact, the more bizarre the story the better.

This method can be used by students for learning terms, quotes, events, dates. One candidate even used this to learn off entire essays before big exams with huge success.

This can be used to better your education, your career and your life.

Tips For Beginner - How To Learn English Free

2011-11-21T22:16:00.000-08:00

Yes, you can. All you need to do is train yourself to speak English as comfortably and perfectly as you speak your mother tongue.

You are like a new baby,babies learn their language slowly, first they learn to listen.Then they learn to talk,finally, they can read and write.

Visit an English speaking country, learn English more quickly.Stay with an English family,hear native speakers talk.Have a fun experience.

Remember that learning a language is a gradual process - it does not happen overnight.

Make learning a habit. Try to learn something every day. It is much better to study (or read, or listen to English news, etc.) 10 minutes each day than to study for 2 hours once a week.

Find friends to study and speak with. Learning English together can be very encouraging.

i. Until you learn the correct intonation and rhythm of English, slow your speech down.

If you speak too quickly, and with the wrong intonation and rhythm, native speakers will have a hard time understanding you.

Don't worry about your listener getting impatient with your slow speech -- it is more important that everything you say be understood.

i. Listen to the 'music' of English.

Do not use the 'music' of your native language when you speak English. Each language has its own way of 'singing'.

iii. Use the dictionary.

Try and familiarise yourself with the phonetic symbols of your dictionary. Look up the correct pronunciation of words that are hard for you to say.

iv. Make a list of frequently used words that you find difficult to pronounce and ask someone who speaks the language well to pronounce them for you.

Record these words, listen to them and practice saying them. Listen and read at the same time.

v. Read aloud in English for 15-20 minutes every day.

Research has shown it takes about three months of daily practice to develop strong mouth muscles for speaking a new language.
