What would you like to know about acquiring English?

I created Successful English to help English learners – people like you – improve their English by themselves. To become autonomous, or independent. When I write, I try to answer three questions: what should they do? why is that important? how should they do it?

Today, I’d like to listen to your questions! What would you like to know? What would help you become a better English learner? If I believe an answer to your question will help you and others, I’ll answer it in a LEARN article sometime soon.

I know that some people hesitate to write on a web site like this, so here’s a little help:

1. Click on Leave a Comment
2. Begin your question with I would like to know.
3. Choose a question word – who, what, when, where, why, or how.
4. Finish your question.

It’s that easy! And you can ask as many questions as you want!

I’m looking forward to reading your questions.

Recently, my students and I have been talking about favorite books. What are yours?

1. What books – originally written in English – have you enjoyed reading the most? Include the names of the authors if you remember them.
2. Did you read them (a) in translation to your first language, (b) in English, or (c) both?
3. (optional) What did you enjoy about them?

TODAY’S QUESTION: A challenge is a difficult task. What is the biggest challenge you face, or experience, as an English learner who doesn’t live in an English-speaking country?

Let’s Talk! is an online discussion about learning English as a second language.
