随着时代的进步，社会的发展，学习英语的意义越来越突出。它作为世界上的通用语言，又是一个官方语言，地位不可小觑。但是要学好英语，可不是一件简答的事情，因为不仅要掌握英语学习的基本方法和学习原则，还要注意口头英语的灵活运用。
如何学好英语，提高英语水平，是当前很多学生头疼的难题。其实，学好英语并不难，关键在于要掌握好的英语学习方法。下面，小编整理了6个方法，希望能够让你的外语学习之路更简单、更有效。
1。 Have a Word of the Day。
每日一词
Trying to learn everything at once and getting overwhelmed by the sheer number of words in your new language can be overwhelming。 Sometimes， even if you do learn new words， you forget them quickly because you haven’t heard them enough in context。
试图记住每个遇到的单词、每天淹没在词海里工作量太大。即使你当下记住了新单词，在没有使用环境的情况下遗忘速度也是惊人的。
One way to get around this problem is to keep a few new words in your vocabulary by using them on a daily basis。 Since it takes an adult an average of 150 times to learn to use a new word properly， having a Word of the Day or several words can help build your vocabulary。
解决这个问题的好办法是挑选一些单词出来，每天用一用。一个成年人掌握一个新词平均需要使用150次，每日重点使用一词或几词则可帮助词汇量的累积。
You can do this one of two ways。 One， you can keep a running list of words you’d like to learn and designate one to be the word of the day。 Or， two， you can wait for new words to come up organically in conversation， and then try to use the new word several times。
推荐两种方式：1。 列个单词清单，每天轮流选择一个作为使用重点；2。 选择无意出现在对话中的新单词作为记忆对象，再使用数次。
2。 Speak the language as much as you can （especially with native speakers）。
说得越多越好（特别是跟母语人士）
It goes without saying that the best way to learn how to speak a language is to actually speak it。 Reading and studying grammar books will only get you so far。
毫无疑问，说好一门外语最好方式就是说说说。毕竟阅读和语法只能帮你到这里。
And yet， it’s so easy to get trapped in the “not-good-enough” mindset， where you don’t speak because you think you don’t speak well enough。 And then your speaking doesn’t get better。
我们很容易就陷入“因为说不好，所以不愿说；因为不愿说，所以更说不好”的死胡同。
So make an effort to communicate with native speakers of your language。 You’ll learn a lot more in a 5 minute conversation with a native Spanish speaker than you will from another English speaker who’s had 2 years of college Spanish。 Try to spend 80% of your time speaking with those who speak the language better than you。
尽最大努力去和那些母语人士交流吧。比起向那些学过4年专业英语的中国老师，和母语人士交流5分钟的收获要多得多。你应该将80%的学习时间用来和那些口语更好的人进行对话。
3。 Listen to foreign language radio or TV， even as background noise。
听英语广播和电视，即使当背景也好
Part of learning to speak a foreign language properly is learning the intonations and rhythms of the words。 In French， for example， you can’t put the emphasis on different words in a sentence to vary what you mean （like you can do in English）。 And it’s easy to distinguish beginner students from near-native speakers by listening for the ones who pronounce French like it’s English。
口语学习的一个重要部分就是学习声调和节奏。例如在一个句子中，将重音放在不同单词上就会表达出不同的含义。初学者和高手的区别就在于是否会将英语说成中国味儿。
The remedy to that is to listen to the language as much as possible。
提升的方法就是尽可能地多听。
Try to hear the pacing of the words， how they’re pronounced in different contexts， and what the different intonations are。 How does the language sound when the speaker is excited， or angry， or asking an accusatory question？
将听的重点放在单词的节奏上，在不同环境中发音、语调的区别。当说话者处于激动、愤怒或指责性地反问时语言有什么变化。
Even listening to the language in the background will help you to pick up information on how the language is spoken。
即使是把对话当背景也可以潜移默化影响你。
