Listen! Not to everything but listen specifically to the kind of English that you want to be

able to understand and to speak. So, for example, if you're interested in being

able to discuss the news with people, you should listen to the news in English.

If you want to talk about sports with your friends in English, then listen to sports

news. If you want to be able to have regular conversations

with people, then perhaps watch some sitcoms on TV, or listen in to real conversations,

or listen to podcasts. They're a great way to hear natural English.

So again, step two is to listen a lot, and make English a part of your daily life so

that you're listening to English a little bit, or a lot, every day.
