To Sharpen Your English Ability

Knowing he is getting into National Central University, a student mentioned on FB that he decided to sharpen his English ability during this summer vacation.  I suggested that he listen to Studio Classroom every day.  In fact, I advised him to listen to the program three times a day and repeat after the teachers.

Since there is no set order for English learners to follow when it comes to learning English, the learners can benefit from any material as long as they stick to it and persist.

An old friend of mine, a retired English teacher from TFG, said around 15 years ago that her daughter, who was then a student at TFG, told her it was Studio Classroom that she learned most English from.  Her daughter listend to the program on the radio in the morning before leaving  for school and at the same time recorded it.  In the evening, she listened to the recorded program twice.  She was so familiar with the content that at the third listening, she often blurted out exactly what the teachers was going to say.  She did this for three years and by her third year of high school, her writing ability had surpassed her mother's.

I'm not hired to promote Studio Classroom.  I posted this story here just to help English learners who know some English and want to improve it but do not know where to start.
