Your friend wants to improve his / her English and asks you for help. What are the three best ways to learn and why Make some notes in the chart.
Dear Jack,
There are three best ways to learn English. The first way is being interested in what you are doing. If you are interested in something, your brain will be more active and you will be more focused. If you like music, I think you should listen to English songs. If you do this, you will be able to improve your pronunciation.
Secondly, it’s also a good idea to read English books because well-written books can teach you many new words and how they are used.
Finally, You could try to improve your English by watching English movies. This will help you to improve your listening and speaking skills. I hope these three ways will work well for you!
Yours sincerely,
Paul

How Reading Improves My English
Reading plays an important role in my English learning.
Firstly,I find that my spoken English has greatly improved through
reading. It gives me confidence when I talk in English. Secondly,reading
helps make writing easier for me. When I do English reading,it reminds
me how words are spelled correctly. So I make fewer and fewer mistakes
in my English writing. Thirdly,reading develops my thinking ability. What
I’ve read makes me open-minded and enables me to think more. What’s
more,reading helps me develop a good habit of learning English.
In a word,reading brings me not only much joy but also great interest
in English learning.
