Start speaking the language you want to learn. Practice helps with usage and it develops one's level of comfort and confidence. You will make mistakes in the beginning. But that is how we learn i.e. by making mistakes. You just have to be comfortable with the idea of making mistakes. But make sure you learn from the latter. Start writing in English. Start with sentences and smaller pieces. And slowly move towards longer pieces. For all of this, mechanisms must be created with a view to getting feedback, especially from people who are better than you are in this area. This is crucial to ensuring progress. Just as poets get feedback from teachers on their poems, you need to get feedback on your reading, speaking and writing skills. It is sometimes hard to organize this. For those who cannot organize feedback, learning takes a bit longer; however, if feedback is possible, progress can be more rapid, organized and documented. Learning is a slow process. Developing skills is also a slow process. And it requires a lot of effort. So, if you are looking for permanent and extensive change, be prepared to work on issues for long periods. You will start seeing results soon, but they will only get better with time and effort. Eventually, some of the practices that work for you should become a part of your personality and way of being. There are two somewhat overlapping but distinct issues that we need to deal with. One has to do with learning a language: in this case English or Urdu. A certain level of familiarity with a language is a prerequisite for reading and writing in and comprehending that language. The other issue has to do with understanding. If your English is weak, you need to improve it. Taking formal courses is probably the best way of doing this. But make sure these courses are of decent quality. Online courses are also available for this. However, if taking a course is not possible, here are some tips for self-learning. Start reading the editorial pages of a good newspaper. Spend 30 to 45 minutes doing this each day. Make sure you understand every word (keep a dictionary with you) and sentence you read. If this means being very slow in the beginning that is fine. After you read something, do try to summarize the content in your own words, or make an attempt at clearly articulating what you think was the argument in the piece you read. Start listening to conversations in the English language. Watching English movies is one way of doing this but even watching news channels will help. But, again, this has to be done in a way where you understand every word and sentence that is uttered. If you have an audio or video file on the computer, replaying sentences can help. Though comprehension is separate from language acquisition, the great thing is that as you acquire more facility and a greater degree of familiarization with a language, the same methods that you are applying to achieve this will help in comprehension as well. When you read an article or watch a movie, summarize the main arguments. This summary should be in your own words only. If you want to go beyond a summary and write on any topic that you have read about, make sure you spend a day or two thinking about what you have read before you write anything. This is extremely important. You need to internalize what various authors have said. This is done when you are reflecting on what you have read. But you need to acquire a certain distance from each author as well. This is to ensure that your voice as a uriter can emerge. P.T.O Start speaking the language you want to learn.
