It is absolutely right: to improve your English skill you have to learn new words. You can’t understand a question or a sentence without knowing what they mean. To understand you have to know all the words in there. And the best way to learn is reading and listening. Find the books you like and read them. Try to find the meaning of all the words you don’t know and remember them. Watching English TV programs or movie also is good for you. If you have problem with listening, you can turn on the caption to read. I usually do that to learn English and it seem working. Remember to find the meaning of those words you don’t know. Those practices are not enough, they only improve your reading and listening skill. To become a good English learner you have to practice to speak and write. Try to take what you learn in reading and listening to practice in speaking and writing, don’t be afraid, and speak whenever you have a chance. Your English will improve a lot if you know how to keep the balance between input and output.

I think that is very complicated to be in another country, in this case (Elham) in the United States and can not speak in its native language, but in language of the another country (U.S). I think that it is necessary work too much four main different aspects: reading, writing, listening and speaking. Read different articles in english language, write letter, essays, emails, and so on in english, listening for example podcasts, and speaking with a friend in english. Every day, all day. I think that it is the best o perhaps the only way (method) for read, write, listen ang speak very well in english. In other word, understand english.
