My mother tongue is Hungarian and I have learned English mostly from TV. But I have improved my English knowledge at school and high school also. Mylot has improved a lot the way I write in English, but it hasn't improved my spoken English.

Yes! Definitely! With continued practicing and experiencing of the English language through communication and interaction in discussions here in myLot, English capability can be vastly improved. It is like learning something. The more you are exposed to it, the easier it is for you to understand the whole thing and use it. Also, by observing how the other myLotters from all over the world use the English language, one can definitely learn a thing or two about the use of certain words, expression and grammar regarding the English language.

Just keep on practicing using the language. Always grab those opportunities to listen, converse and understand the English language. Everybody starts with no knowledge of the language and was just picked up in the early days of learning it. The exposure here on the English language can definitely help you achieve that goal of yours.

Absolutely, but I think not just in Mylot we can improved our English language. Reading a book, watch news or movie (without looking translation text), talk to foreign people etc also help us to improved our English.
I still remember when I in Junior School and/or high school. I'm the most stupid student in school (specially on English lesson). But it change when I go to college. They pushed me to read a lot of English book and talk to foreign people.

The biggest influence on my English improvement came from reading book and watch movie (without seeing translation text). But these only improve our passive language. To improve your active language (speaking fluently) you need to talk with someone (but they must able to speak English too), and I prefer to foreign people.
School push student to learn English but not make student boring?
Well, It depend on student itself. If they serious about their school, it's not gonna be boring

I know how hard it must be for the ones that do not speak English to be an active part on Mylot. I have a great deal of respect for the effort they make. I think that it helps every one with their English, even the ones that already speak English sometimes. Your right...English is not a very easy language. It changes all the time and there are constantly new words added and taken out of it.
I think you are doing a great job! Take care.

Hi adhyz: I'm from Mexico so english is not my mother tongue and from my own experience I can tell you that Mylot really can help you to improve your english level because you have to make your best to express your ideas in english adn at the same time you are reading long structured speeches by other members and you can keep a conversation with them.

I think I have answered a similar question before and my answer is still the same. Yes, Mylot helps us develop our knowledge of the global language because it is what we are using to discuss here. Practice makes it perfect. And also, many members here are very intelligent and we learn a lot from their discussions.

Hi Adhyz....!.
I think we all good basic in English when we first come here. And yes mylot help us getting better and learn new word every day. I think its also teach us courage to speak our mind in many subject, something we rarely had in real life because we usually use our mother tongue in daily conversation. So Mylot giving place to sharpen it.
Its giving courage to speak to foreigner in real life and making friend with few of them. Its open doors to many possibilities.

of course,it is a good platform to improve english. By this,i learn how to use english proficiently in writing. hehehe,just better than before. But it can't improve my listening and oral ability. i know any website can't attain that demand. in order to improve my english,i need other practice,such as listen more and speaking more. hehe. how do you improve your english all the aspects?

Mylot is a good training ground for people to improve their English. When we read written words in English everyday in mylot and respond to the same, we will be able to slowly acquire the proficiency of the native speakers. I think I have not only improved my English but have boost my confidence in communicating in this language.

I have been a member for a while and I have seen several of my non English speaking friends’ English language skills improve a lot. Communicating with others is the best way to learn and practice a new language and what better place to do it than MyLot where we gain new friends and a few pennies as a bonus!

Hi adhyz82,
Yes, we can improve our English here at mylot. By reading the discussions and responses of other members, we also get an idea on how to go about with our own responses.

Yes, in my opinion, I do think that MyLot can help improve a person's English language. I think it's because there are so many topics we can all read on and then to respond to and to start a topic on. All these play an important part in constructing our sentences and how we express our thoughts, etc
