I can say that these Grammar books are the soul of all grammar books ever. If you want to learn grammar, these books are the most suitable for you. Those are completed with simple explanations, many examples and also various exercises that can hone your Grammar ability. 
Reading Books.
  • Steps to Academic Reading 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 by Jean Zukowski/Faust . Those are really great reading books I'm told. In every levels you can find out many interesting texts with many exercises, e.g scanning, skimming, context clues, understanding sequences, vocabulary drilling, Idioms, details, etc.Unfortunately, I have Step to Academic Reading 3.

Speaking Books
  • Person to Person: Communicative Speaking and Listening Skills, 1, 2 , and 3 by Jack C. Richard et al. I used to have these books when I was in the first semester.

Here, we will look for some ways how to choose the right reading books or material for you.
Finding the perfect reading materials or books is like finding the perfect soul-mate, if you feel that the materials or books are not suitable for you, you can exchange them. Remember the last discussion? I mentioned that smart choice is everything. Now, here are some consideration for you about how to choose the perfect books or material for your reading. 
•    Make sure you have great interest in book you want to read. It can at least overcome your saturation. Choose the books you are really dying to read.
•    Pick up the right level of book for you. Sometimes the book you read is for advance level, but you are in intermediate level. It must be hard for you to understand the content of the book. So, try to find out whether the book is suitable for your level. Some books give preferences at the back cover, it says bout what level the book is for.
•    Try to read the synopsis of the book. It can help you to give a general and brief point of view of the book. It can help you to find the book you like to read.
•    Look at the content briefly,. You can do scanning first if it possible .
•    Ask your friends about some books that suitable for you. It is also important to ask someone to recommend what books are good for you.
•    You can also go online and find some references there. Find a site which gives you some books references.
•    If you go to the book stores, try to ask the clerk what books are recommended to the reader.
•    Look at book closely, is there any "best seller" sign, or how many times the books have printed.  
•    etc.
Those are some tips for my EFL friends who want to find out the suitable book to read. The tips is not only for you who wants to choose English materials, but also other books. At last, happy reading dude.

Hanna Montana for Better English

Talking about some really outstanding TV series that can provide you English, Hanna Montana is the one that I can recommend to you my EFL friends. Why is it so? Nice question. Hanna Montana TV series has nice story lines, it can drag you into laughter. Besides the English conversation is also fabulous, it also sounds natural too.

I also learn about the style of Malibu child, how they go to school, how they treat they parents, and how they make communication among them. 
Hanna Montana is all about fun, I learn so much from this TV series.
Now, let's see some new vocabularies I got from Hanna Montana the series.
  • Toodles means goodbye.
  • Stay out of it means do not  interfere.
  • Make up means being a friend again after a break or problem.
  • Tell me about it means I've already known the thing. 
  • The best of both worlds means there are advantages for both sides.
  • Slick means cute, handsome, or beautiful.
  • Get lost in your eyes means fall in love.
  • Say what?
  • etc.

English Cartoon for All

I am 25 now, but I still love watching cartoons. I sometime find myself staring at TV watching Toppy and Binno, a carton series at one of the private TV station in Indonesia. I also download some Dora the Explorer series. Maybe It sounds peculiar for some, but a small thing like watching Dora the Explorer can help you much in adding your vocabulary.

Watching Barbie sounds so funny for a man, but for me it does not funny at all. As long as the idea is to improve your English, watching barbie is not a big deal. I admit that I used to watch Barbie, and I found it was interesting. I could vary my vocabulary after I watched that cartoon. Besides, Barbie film also taught me good manners how to speak English politely. Just give it try sometimes, I bet you’ll find I mean.

Some of children cartoons also teach us pronunciation, how to spell a letter or word, for example Dora the Explorer, it can give us many vocabularies and also teach us how to pronounce them well.

Next cartoon is The lion king, it is excellent cartoon. It teaches us many moral value, provides us many interesting vocabulary and of course entertains us. You can use this cartoon as a medium in teaching English too. See, you can get many stuff from cartoon.Just find out many great cartoons out there and enjoy the benefits.

At last, just visit some website and check some cartoon you want to watch, or if you have your old collection of the cartoon just play it again and don not miss the learning time.

Bye my EFL friends, keep practicing your English!

Never Stop Sharing :)

How to Choose English Movies

Educative Movies
Maybe you are asking why we should choose the right movies to improve our English, especially for EFL learners. Here are the answers.

Some English movies have no good moral values or proper languages to learn. Those inappropriate movies can lead your English even worse instead of the good one. I can say this because I have discussed to native speakers that choosing the right movie to learn is important.
Some dirty words can be found in many English movies. We did not filter it and check whether those dirty words are even used in daily conversation. Accidentally, often we use them in our conversation and as the result, we make someone upset. It is OK if you want to know the dirty words, but try not to use it. I think it is not real polite to say them to someone.

Next thing you can do to choose the right English movies are by looking at the guidance, I mean whom the movies are proposed for. You’d better choose the English movies that are dedicated for all ages, or family movie. Besides the language used is appropriate, we can also learn many moral values and cultures there.
Find the movie catalog and watch closely to the movie you want to watch. You can also check in the internet and find the recommended movie for learning English. I am also pretty sure that there are some groups on internet which facilitate some information about good movie to watch.    

You may also ask your English teachers and friends about the movie you watch. If it is possible you can also ask your native friends (if you have ones) about good movies to watch. It is so important for EFL learner to know which movies are right for them because some phenomena I found in my daily life show that most of the students use lines they got from movie without checking whether they are appropriate to use in real conversation or not. They do not even know that the words they used were rude.

In short, You have rights to choose your own English movie, but try to find some movies which have Educational values for you.
Smart choice is all needed here, find the educative movies pal. Happy watching!

Leraning English by Watching Movies

English Flicks are great media in learning English
Everyone likes watching movies, I am pretty sure about this. Besides I do believe that movies, especially English movies can help the EFL learners in improving their English. Am I right?
There are a thousands English movies available out there.They are nice media to sharpen your ability in English, they are also rich of knowledge and information for the watcher. Watching movies sounds like killing two birds with single stone, you are learning English and you give your brain break at the same time. Just go to the DVDs rental and pick up the movies you are dying to watch.
Below are some advantages of watching movies for your English.
  • Watching movies can enrich your vocabulary. You may have a piece of paper and write down a new vocabulary you think important in the movie.
  • You can also sound like a real native. Just repeat the line how the actors or actress say, snort not sweet child, it will work, especially to some spelling that is wrongly pronounced by EFL learners, e.g. Thought, tough, thirteen, thirty, etc.
  • You can also learn how the real natives speak. How they use their gesture, mime etc.
  • You can learn about the culture, for instance, table manner, how to greet someone, how they communicate etc.
  • You can improve your listening ability. You'll get accustomed to native speakers' speeches by watching movies.
  •  You can also learn grammar from the movies your watching. It's so true that you can find out some example for your grammar class.
  • You can use some lines in the real conversation and make your word choice better. Besides it will sound awesome. 
  • You can get the new idea about your linguistics task. You can even make the movies as an object of your research, for example theses, final report, art class report, or drama class.
  • etc.
Hints: 
  • You can play the movie over and over again, until you can memorize the words. It sounds crazy, but I apply it.  
  • Use the vocabulary you've got in the movie in your writing, or speaking.
  • Pay attention to lip movements of the actors or actress. It can help you to understand what they say. 
  • Choose the right movie, not all the English movies are good for us (I'll talk this later)
  • Don't forget to share your new knowledge you've got from the movie to everyone. This is important.
So, let's watch the movies and get all the good things from them. Do not waste your time watching something unimportant. Re-watch your old movie and make yourself good at English. Have fun!
 

Are You afraid of speaking English?

Confidence is all you need.
Are You afraid of speaking English?, I hope this sentence I am afraid of Speaking English is not available in your dictionary, or if you have one, let's think over that  its sentence should be turned to be I am not afraid to speak English. 
Now, let me share you my experience about my students who are afraid of speaking English, and I put some reasons why they are.
Most of my students said that they are afraid of speaking English. They mentioned various reasons why they are. I try to understand their problems and I do my best to motivate them, since learning English is a process, rushing is no need. Then, my duty is also to encourage them to keep practicing their English, especially they are English teacher candidates, and English is an important part for their future.
I pay much attentions how to give them many opportunities to learn much and persuade them by a number of motivations in order to build their very own encouragement in learning English.
Well, let's see some of their excuse in speaking English.
  •  They are afraid of making mistakes. I've told them a thousands time that they do not have to pay anything if they make mistakes in speaking English. Besides English is not our mother tongue, it is not a big deal if you make a mistake.
  • They are afraid of being ridiculed. Ridiculing, mocking, or insulting someone who wants to speak English is a real bad habit. Many students of mine feel uncomfortable and give up speaking English because of being ridiculed by other people. Again, I told them that they have to ignore what people say, remember dog's barking, doesn't bite. It is useless to pay attention to what people say. Just keep your chin up and be happy, keep practicing because it will be better .
  • They are afraid because of the lack of vocabulary. Imagine, if they just stop talking because they have some vocabulary only, their English will get even worse then. I said, ignored your vocabulary and keep practicing your English. I guarantee, by practicing your English as often as possible, your vocabulary will be rich. 
  •  etc.
Those are some reason why they are afraid of speaking English. In short, they are just not confident. Yap! building a confidence is quite tough, but do not give it up easily and get rid of your shyness!. Remember, you are what you think.

At last, maybe you've got the same problem as I am facing now. If you've got some brilliant ideas to overcome those problems, let's share. I am looking forward to it.

Thanks a billion for Reading

English in Indonesia

Hi pal! 

Even thought English is a foreign language in Indonesia, it took several stories how  It becomes a compulsory subject in our country. It's important to know, you know what they say, out of sight, out of mind.

Maybe some of you do not know that Indonesian's government made Undang-undang Republik Indonesia Nomor 2 Tahun 1989 (Laws of the Republic of Indonesia Number 2,1989) about National Education System, and It is also fallowed by Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 2 Tahun 1990 (The government Regulation Number 28, 1990) about the development of human resources. It is all about the development the qualification of teachers, students and related parties.

In this case, the government also issued the Regulation of Department of Education of Indonesia No. 0487/14/1992 section VIII that the content of this regulation is to give an opportunity for elementary school to add an additional lesson to its curriculum, but under one circumstances that the additional lesson is not against with the goals of national education.
In some region, English is added as an additional lesson at Elementary school.

A very next year, the Decree of Minister of Education and Culture No. 060/U/1993 of February 25, 1993 was aired. It stated that English can be taught at elementary school as additional subject (muatan lokal), and it can be started from 4th grade. 

The following next years English took its part to be a compulsory additional subject at elementary school. Originally, It was firstly begun and brought by West Java Province and since then English is widely taught in every level of study.    

Well, that's how the story begins. It sounds so simple though, but I hope, It can be an eyes-opener to all of you pals, who want to know how English become an important part in our education.   

Okay then, keep practicing Your English Pal :D
