STUDY SKILLS

1 It's good to find a personal link with the language. It could be music, films, computer games.

Don't spend too long studying. Little and often is the secret.

Make a notebook. And write down new words. Then remember to read them again.

2 Read the words and say them, but pay-attenction at the pronounce, it's very important.
