You can always read the newspapers and borrow books from the library just to read and improve your English words and being able to construct them into sentences. Conversing with your friends in English can also help you to improve your English as well.

I suggest you to start reading english newspapers and watching english movies. Watch english movies that come with subtitles and speak with them. This will help you in improving your english.

There are programs on the internet for learning languages. You can search for them. That could be very helpful. Participating in the activities of myLot will very much help improving your English too. Another way could be, do you have English speaking friends there ? Talking to them and listening to what they say can be very helpful. Have a nice day !

You need to read books and write down those words that you hardly understand and check it with dictionary. Also listen or watch English movies always and listen well how they pronounced the words properly. You can also try youtube- there's a lot of online tutors uploaded in youtube where you can learn basics English. Have a good day and welcome to mylot jaiho®

I don't know how good is my English , maybe not so :D But I think it would be helpful to see English movies (as somebody recommended) or English series. I watch few series, but on the PC, because our TV doesn't broadcast them, and often I can't wait for the subtitles and watch it without them. It is both educational and interesting. You can also read books , as they said you Harry Potter is in easy English. Try find some tests on the net and see where are the wrong answers. If you want it, keep trying and you'll get a success. I believe that if somebody wants something very much, it doesn't matter if he/she is from China or from UK. It only matter your persistence. I keep learning, so my advice is not from a person with perfect English, but hope it will help you. Nice day !

Since you took exams already, find out from the results in what area you need to improve (grammar, vocabulary, comprehension, etc.) so that you can focus on that. Also, it is helpful that you watch English movies or tv shows or read English books.

Is it difficult of Chinese to study english. I am one the Jackie chan fan. I used to see his films. I also see that he cant speak english fluently ,as there is difficult to speak. The director have to take more shots because of this. Well it is my imagination. The main thing in english is the grammer and read english novels like harry potter series.
