Dear Annie,
It’s my last year in junior high school.I’m worried about my English because it’s hard for me to understand grammar. I am also afraid to speak in front of the class, so my spoken English is poor. What’s worse, the English is difficult to remember. I don’t know how to improve my English. Can you do me a favor

Dear Meiping,
I know you want to improve your English and you need some help. There are three good ways to learn English.
I think you should be interested in learning English first. If you do this, your brain will be more active and it’s also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. You can connect learning English with something interesting. For example, if you like music or movies, you can listen to English songs or watch English-language movies.
It is also a good idea to develop your study skills because it’s not enough to just study hard. You should find the best way you can study. For example, you can take notes by writing down key words or by drawing a mind map. You could try to improve your English by practicing more. This will help you improve your English listening, speaking, writing and so on. Remember, “Practice makes perfect. ”You should keep practicing what you’ve learned and you shouldn’t be afraid of making mistakes. No one can succeed overnight.
I hope all these will be helpful to you.
Yours,
Annie
