There are many interesting ways that one can apply to
improve his/her English Communication skills. Reading English newspaper
regularly is one among them and there are many significant benefits if one
reads newspapers.
How to improve your English by reading newspapers?
- Choose a newspapers that suits you best. Reading the standard newspaper like – The Hindu is little bit difficult for you to understand. So select the newspaper which uses simple language and simple words. I suggest you to read The Hans India or The Deccan Chronicle newspapers in the initial stage.
- Then read the newspaper for at least 30 minutes daily.
- Note down difficult words and learn their meanings with the help of a dictionary.
- While going through the sentences observe very carefully how they are written.
- Guess the meaning of the words that you don’t understand. Don’t refer to a dictionary immediately.
- Try to use the words and sentences/expressions that you read in the newspapers in your day-to-day conversations.
- Make it a regular habit of reading newspaper. You will not witness much progress if you give up this habit.
- Don’t try to read the entire newspaper. Select any 3 or 4 articles and read them slowly by understanding each and every word and sentence.
- Although it is a newspaper don’t read it like that; instead read the newspaper of English just like your academic subjects.
- If possible write your views/suggestions and send them to the Editors by e-mail.
- Keep a pocket note book and enter the new words and expressions that you learn every day by reading newspapers of English.
- Revise them (the new words and expressions) at least twice in a month. If you have forgotten them, this sort of revision will help you to recollect them again.
***ALL THE BEST***
