ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

English as a second language (ESL) is the use or study of English by speakers with different native languages.

English is a language which has great reach and influence;

it is taught all over the world under many different circumstances. In English-speaking countries, 

English language teaching has essentially evolved in two broad directions : instruction for people who intend to live there and for those who do not. These divisions have grown firmer as the instructors of these two "industries" have used different terminology, followed distinct training qualifications, formed separate professional associations, and so on. Crucially, these two arms have very different funding structures, public in the former and private in the latter, and to some extent this influences the way schools are established and classes are held. 

Matters are further complicated by the fact that the United States and the United Kingdom, both major engines of the language, describe these categories in different terms: as many British observers have had attributed to them, the saying goes that "England and America are two countries divided by a common language."

5 top ways to lear english

Thankfully, there are a few proven ways to learn English effectively, such as:

•             Surround yourself with educated English speakers. This is, perhaps, the most ideal way to learn English – at least verbally. Surround yourself with educated English speakers that already have an understanding of language concepts, rules and structures. Why do they have to be educated? Well, it’s no secret that in any language, common conversation it littered with language errors. Educated individuals – those that major in English or hold related degrees – are more likely to speak with correct grammar and usage than those without.   

•             Take English classes. This may be a free option, depending on your level of education and location, but you may also have to pay for such classes. When led by competent, native English-speaking teachers, English classes can have a dramatically positive effect on your understanding of the English language. You can even enroll in online courses if attending an institution isn’t an option!    

   

•             Purchase an English language-learning program. There are a few dozen, state-of-the-art technological programs on the market today that offer language-learning courses. These programs include interactive exercises, word definitions, quizzes, videos and much more. Often thought to be the most effective way to learn a new language (besides being dropped in the language-speaking country) these programs are a convenient way to discover the English language. They can be studied anywhere, at any time. They may, however, cost you a pretty penny; the best of these programs can cost over two hundred dollars. 

      

•             Hire an English tutor. This may be an expensive pursuit, but not necessarily; some tutors work for relatively low prices and really know their stuff. If you can afford it, English tutors are possible better choices than taking English classes, because they provide completely individualized instruction. With an individual English master helping you with your exact needs, you’ll be speaking English fluently in no time!

       

•             Use books, videos and other free materials. There are many online sites that offer free explanations for English rules, translations and word definitions. At the same time, hundreds of books, instructional videos, listening tapes and other supplemental materials are available to anyone with the means to buy them. These resources can also be helpful as additional study material if you chose to pursue one of the previous methods of language-learning.

Dear Mr. Prima

Thank you for offering me the position of research chemist with GM2 biochemical. Regretfully, I must decline the offer ; I have accepted with Kimia Farma Science Corporation instead. Although I appreciate the chance to talk with you about GM2’s ongoing research in aqueous fungicides, the research program at Kimia Farma more closely matches my academic background.

I regret that I will not be joining your team at GM2, but I am grateful for the time you spent with me during the interview,

Sincerely ,

Gisella
