Improve Motivation


Keep your motivation high steadily.

With high motivation, you will feel enjoy (do not feel forced) to spend time for hours to read or memorize grammar, a dictionary, and practice English. If you feel bored quickly, that means you do not have enough motivation high. If my first, just an example, motivation is very high because I want to free school abroad. Then, what motivated you learn English?

Because the English language is very complex, of course, takes time to learn. Many of our friends give up in the middle of the road because of less patience, too want to arrive at the finish line in a short time. My advice, do not be too ambitious to touch the finish line in a very short time. This will create a foundation other than the grammar you're not strong, but also can break your motivation. Take a relax course, sooner or later you will ARRIVE there.

Use good learning media that fit you.
Learn the appropriate media depending on the character and lifestyle there. Media that are appropriate for other people not necessarily right for you, as well as vice versa. Next is the media that you can try:

1. Do not use the dictionary only contain the word meaning only (ie can be =, month = month, = plough plow, ect). Why? Sentence-sentence because you make a wrong. Try to note the following example 3, the likely result of such a dictionary:

* You must do (you should be)
* The month goes round the earth (earth orbit month)
* Three people ploughed the Airplane (three people hijack the plane).

2. If you like to listen to songs west then keep doing so, and if you can not catch its lyrics, search the internet. Here are the benefits of listening to songs in English:

* Can improve your listening skills.
* Be able to know how a certain word is pronounced.
* Can help you build vocab, because the words in the song longer cling in your memory (especially the song-love theme song).
* Can help remembering certain patterns sentence. For example, songs from the Corrs, entitled "What can I do" you can make a reference about the use of capital can in a sentence; pattern of what you get from "It mustt have been love" by Rossette this?
* When you are singing in the small bathroom, you practice speaking, form a pattern, etc. ..

3. If you like watching DVDs, then watch DVD movies. Sub-title of the DVD movies will help you how particular words be vocalized. Select the most good movies you so you do not feel bored for playing again.

4. Use the chat, email, or whatever that uses English.


Practice makes perfect.
Can be as usual, the moment diligent in the broad sense, to do ordinary course, not only dream of doing (dreaming). This solution and a wide right. Stop Dreaming Start Action in English is a must.


:: Tentang Asep Haryono ::

Foto Hak Cipta Bearing
Assalamualaikum Warrahmatullahi Wabarokatuh

Asep Haryono atau akrab dengan panggilan "Kang Asep" ini mulai bergabung dalam grup Pontianak Post pada bulan September tahun 2001 lalu. Ia memang wajah baru di Pontianak Post. Bagi para pengunjung situs web Pontianak Post pasti sudah bisa menikmati hasil kerja yang mengisi dan mengoperasikan situs itu.

"Ah saya sih cuma klik kanan kopi paste aja, saya rasa pekerjaan saya ini mudah dan bisa dilakukan oleh setiap orang " begitu jawabannya yang selalu merendah.

Dikantor tempatnya bekerja dia dikenal mempunyai pergaulan yang baik dan supel dengan orang lain di kantornya mulai dari cleaning service, satpam hingga kepada tingkat manajemen. Mau liat Kaya ruangan tempat saya bekerja bisa klik di sini. Sedangkan kantor/gedung tempat saya bekerja bisa dilihat di sini.

Ketika ditanya mengapa ia tertarik dengan bidang online di Internet yang bagi kebanyakan orang tidak terlalu populer ini, ia mengatakan bahwa bekerja di dunia ONLINE adalah hal yang paling menarik. Dengan fasilitas ini kita bisa berkelana kemana saja di bagian dunia ini tanpa harus beranjak dari bangku duduk kita. Salah satu kegemarannya adalah menjelajah dunia via Internet.

"Saya punya banyak sahabat di manca negara ; Jepang, Australia , Amerika Serikat, Malaysia, Belanda, RRC , Swedia , Hongkong , Inggris dan Philiphina" katanya. "Dahulu kan jaman atau era taon 1990 an masih ngetop korespondensi surat menyurat dengan Pos atau memakai perangko, nah dulu memang hobi ku berkirim surat ke manca negara, mencari sahabat dan teman luar negeri" kata Asep yang sangat gemar seafood ini.

Khusus negara Philliphina mendapat tempat di Hati pria berbintang Aries ini. "Teman saya dari Philliphina memberi gelar kuya di depan nama saya. Kuya dalam Bahasa Tagalog Philiphina berarti "big Brother" gitu deh". Wah Jadi abang tertua donk ya. "Sampai sekarang saya selalu ingat gelar pemberian sahabat Philiphina Saya itu". Sekarang pun jika ada kesempatan saya mempelajari Bahasa Tagalog dari salah seorang teman saya Ann dari Manila, Philiphina.

Eh iya Ngomong ngomong tentu untuk jadi warga Dunia tentu harus menguasai Bahasa Inggris donk?. "oh ya jelas Donk. Sebagai salah satu bahasa Internasional kita harus menguasai Bahasa Inggris itu. Gak gaUl ah kalo bisanya cuma Jago Kandang aja. Bahasa Asing khan Banyak tidak hanya Bahasa Inggris loh" katanya Meluruskan. Khan susah belajarnya ya? Gimana sih tips biar bisa berbahasa Inggris itu. "Syaratnya mudah aja dan banyak orang sudah tahu kok. Kamu harus punya Motivasi yang sangat Kuat, Jangan Malu dan terus Berlatih itu saja tips dari saya". Oala gitu aja ya?.

Apa lagi yang menarik dari perjalanan hidup Asep ini? Pengalaman bekerja mengajar les dari Rumah Ke Rumah (door to door) semakin membuatnya sadar akan pentingnya menghargai uang. "Banyak orang yang mulai tidak belajar hidup hemat sebelum dia tidak memiliki (uang) sama Sekali" celotehnya bak Pujangga. Diomelin orang tanpa selidik dulu adalah salah satu babak dalam hidupnya yang menarik dari perjalanan Asep. Bagaimana cara pandang "Kuya" Asep terhadap penolakan Wanita?.

"Wah jangan nanya ini donk, kan personal loh. Tapi gak papa kok, yang jelas setiap orang Wanita punya pilihan dan standarnya masing masing dan itu harus dihormati. Namun yang menarik jika kamu ditolak jangan kecil hati, petiklah hikmahnya bahwa manusia memang dibekali kelebihan dan kekurangan masing masing. Kedewasaan kita mutlak diperlukan untuk bisa menerima orang lain dengan segala kelebihan dan kekurangannya. Kalau itu sudah ada, nah Itu baru jodoh namanya" katanya Seolah Berfilosofi.

Jika perjalanan hidup seseorang bisa dianalogikan dengan sebuah buku yang terdiri atas beberapa bab, perjalanan hidup Asep Haryono ini juga terdiri atas beberapa bagian. Apa yang masih ingin dicapai dalam perjalanan hidup berikutnya, kang Asep?. " Saya masih ingin kembali ke bangku Kuliah, belajar bahasa Inggris dan Teknologi Informasi yang sudah mulai merambah dalam hidup saya. Saya berangan angan bisa menimba Ilmu di Australia melalui beasiswa Pemerintah Australia. Kebetulan saja saya memang banyak network dari mereka tapi bukan mengharapkan koneksi ataw relasi loh". Duile bahasanya hahaha.

Ehm Jadi serius nih mau kuliah di Australia melalui tes beasiswa Pemerintah Australia yang dibuka tiap tahun itu?. "Ya tentu. Mengapa tidak" jawabnya. Lalu bagaimana dengan kembali bergerak di pendidikan publik, barangkali ya jawab pria yang badannya mulai melar ini. "nggak harus pendidikan formal, tapi juga termasuk pendidikan sosial .Saya juga mau coba mulai belajar menggunakan media elektronik dan teknologinya sebagai sarana dalam proses pembelajaran itu" jelas Asep.

:: Four Basic Problem in Learning English ::


The cause is the habit of Indonesia (sorry) was really so ugly. If we are talking about the reviews or, in general, we like to spin (not to the point), plus not structured, so that often we do not know which main subject, main verb, and so on. What relationship with the English language? Please read the following points!

When the cause of both is to use the English language, both via speaking and writing, we are the brain we usually into 2, the partition A to language B and a partition for the English language. First sentence is made in the first partition A, and then exported to the new partition B to translate before finally expressed through speaking or writing.

The effect is a pattern or grammar that has been gravely trouble since learned to be forgotten because Junior High School partition B is too busy translating for word that is made in the partition A. And, because the Indonesian language is really playing around and not structured, partition B to become a headache in the translation. As a result, the partition B often hangs (jammed), and no output is produced. If the partition is successfully removing the B output, the output is generally far below the standard, aka the ugly English. In addition, opponents to speak often be eaten mosquitoes already asleep running.

Motivation is the third cause of that is not consistent. For students, the motivation for learning English in general, because you want to get a good value. This means that only English would be the test of time, and after the test has finished a book settle somewhere. Finally the fourth reason is the method of learning English is less precise. If you only rely on power memorize, your English will not get better.

:: My English is Poor? ::


I have taught / learn English since junior high school (or perhaps since kindergarten), but the English ability My Poor Growth? What is wrong with me? "This question may often undermine the mind of the English language if you are still there and you stuck without any developed.

If your question so you still need to be thankful that with a question like that, in the chest you still have to be seething. You just keep on trying! Although the English language is complex (for example because a lot of vocab, pronunciation is not really consistent, many exceptions, and many others. If other people why can not you?. Just find out rhe need now is what is wrong, whether the method, the level of seriousness, or perhaps because of other reasons ?

: What are you waiting for ; Learn English now::


Well now what is preventing you? Find by clear what the obstacles and to be able getting through. Your partner may be less to learn and you have a group Learning English On Facebook, for example, but you do not already have a laptop. Just learning English hard, buy a laptop, hard really hard course. If only a little later harder capable computer used

How to find the money to study English I have not been working? Learning already have 2 months that have not yet received, and learning hard become domestic workers, what a lot of this job is available, the salary tolerable working hours, and not always long. This is what people already learning hard certainly can!. Work and also very noble. There is no root of rattan is so. If you already have a rattan life, if not the root of life is first, not correct?.

Well, so only a short post about the English with hard way this time, hopefully I can cover more in the future. In fact we all already know that learning hard that can produce large differences in learning English, which is a little we-we really doing something to practice it. Maybe because we have not stopped dreaming (lazy, or doing nothing etc. but want to) and not start the action. Therefore, the slogan Stop Dreaming Start Action is also very relevant in the world to learn English.

:: Learn English With Hard? ::


Now I am posting tips about learning English is just so relaxed it would put the heart may be considered entertainment is also not why. I was plainly not senekad I think this study in English. You want to successfully master the English language? So easy to apply only moment-this is easy easy to master English with hard moment. For example, if you at this time is far from the English can only be with hard the English language completely. How? Yes I would learn English with hard.

I have not wanted to learn where and with whom? Learning hard is more places where I studied English and the best person who can teach you that. The quality of learning is usually expensive, not enough money? People learn hard should never give up, because that is not easily give up the name hard was. So, you also need to learn hard cut off all obstacles, including what the obstacles in learning the English language that come from within yourself as lazy, and so the minder.

Of course, if only hard now is to the level or just dream to know that learning the English language hard moment this is successful but can not do hard determination that the results almost certainly the English language you will also stand up to learn hard here. The desire or dream is very important as the fuel and that it is not enough without the Take Action hard before, my motto for this is Stop Dreaming Start action which means that only a dream but do not start to do, so do not Stop Dreaming can be defined as not have any dreams or dreaming on it or may not have a strong desire, that I should thus, including the desire to be the English language course.

:: English is Easy To Learn ::


Hello all on this forum,

:: Start Learning English ::


Body is a biological tool to change the duty of creativity into a reality, and change a mind to become action. But often we do not have any synchronization adequate to change the illusion / dream into action that produces. We want the body in shape but want to sit in relax wat. We want to ENGLISH, but our bodies, especially the tongue forced us averse to speaking in another language.

This obstacle is the cause of the billion people on earth, but only under the 10% who have a role in changes in the world. There are millions of internet users but there is only one expert in Indonesia who apply it in natural context. There are millions of vocabulary in English, but we only want to use yes / no.

We need an integration between mind and action that bears the human-human integrity. Man who not only talk but also act to make changes in his life. Thought we should be ruling body, the desire-body is the desire we need to note, such as the need for health care, food, clothes etc.. But the body also has the desire-the desire that, in principle, want to take. To do what? The mind must act as the master, mind to meet the needs of the body, but should still be able to control with both to achieve the purposes of the mind.

Dreams is a world we thought, and can only be realized if the body to act. Stop Dreaming Start Action is a phrase that could trigger the expected jump in our minds and so can strengten ruling body to act. Say Stop Dreaming Start Action now and ordered the body to act to realize your dreams. The future is indeed, and now have in mind-mind, ordered the body to act, have put the changes and we will see our dreams realized.

:: Learn English Need a lot of hardwork ::


Immediate action to take a foreign language!. Master a language other than the language itself is a solitary joy. I remember a friend who is fluent in German, nearly like the original German. When I ask him how to master this language, my friend told how her mother is German force since the age of 5 years! My friend's mother is a lawyer (attorney) and is very fluent in German. Since the age of 5 years, starting were poisoned by two languages spoken in the brain and the result is really the way his career is not far from the German ability.

Control of a foreign language will be seen when we have been able to kick with the language! Because when in a state of anger, we talk a lot without thinking, and this could be a test whether we are already over a foreign language or not. If you do not have any other people who can force you to learn to truly can be, the only way you should be able to be a motivator for self, a foreman for themselves.

Similarly, in control of the sciences, including science, such as the Internet made by an expert. One of the vocabulary that you must have to have a starting skill is often said Stop Dreaming Start Action

:: Final Preparation For IETLS :


IELTS test is a test for a long and tiring. So, make sure that your bed and the breakfast is quite adequate. Research shows that breakfast containing protein is the most well before the exam, while the breakfast that contains carbohydrates should be avoided. Do not drink too much coffee!

Do not learn quickly in the minutes-minutes before the end of the day the test was because when you find new things that you have not learned, your panic and even your worries will not be productive. It is best that you do in the last hours before the test is to speak with the English language, or re-read the essay that has been corrected. That's it.

Come early to the test so that you have enough time in case a street jammed. Get to know the situation around so that you feel comfortable, and try to see the space in the test so that your peace of mind. At the time of waiting, talk in English to the candidate's brain so that other tests you have to go 'English mode'.

Remember that the IELTS test is not the biggest problem. If you can not get the value you need, you can still repeat ... again and again (at least until you run out of money!). Prepare as best as possible, and as many practice tests Get step for step, so you will get band score you need in a short time. For tips and strategies for a more complete, and for the exercise test, follow the IELTS Preparation course.

:: Speaking ::


Success in the speaking test comes from practice and confidence. The confidence is the key, but often that feel confident that this new show after a lot of exercise. Remember that this test is to speak, so speak as much as possible and do not just give one word answers to one question. In the second part, you are expected to speak about a certain topic for one or two minutes. Should be prepared to write a note with as much as possible (the keywords that will help you later).

This will be useful to minimize the risk of 'brain blank' at the time of speaking. Try to continue to speak for two minutes until a full examiner ask you to stop, this will show your ability in a 'run on' and you will add value in the smooth / fluency. The first and second question is about you and the topics you know well, while the third contains an abstract question. Listen carefully to the questions provided, especially in the third and respond appropriately. Do not talk about yourself in the third.

Examiner will provide a value based on 4 aspects of your speaking ability: fluency (the ability to continue to talk), grammar (type of use and accuracy), vocabulary (the type and accuracy) and the pronunciation. Prepare to learn grammar and vocabulary but do not think grammar while undergoing a test, because if you have the correct forms of grammar, your value in the case of a smooth (Fluency) will decrease.

:: Writing ::


In the first, you are expected to describe your a graph, table, or a combination of the three, within 20 minutes. In the second, the time you have 40 minutes to write an academic essay as long as 250 words. Remember the time. The second part is longer and more important, so take 40 minutes. So make sure that you move in real time.

The first part is about to compare and describe your data. You need not be a waste of time writing it and the reason for the movement of data or graphs based on your estimates. Describe it yourself what is seen in the graph. You should always try to compare the data you see, not just write down the information in front of you. Be careful to make notes about the date and time in the data, and make sure you use the correct tenses.

In the second part, you must analyze the question carefully, gather ideas, and think about the structure of the paragraphs you will make. All this must be done before you start writing. Do not leave the topic requested and make sure that you are leaving at the end of 5 minutes to check your work. If you already have awareness about the weaknesses in your writing, then you can use this time to re-examine your job effectively.

IELTS examiner will see when the 4 aspects of any posts you rate it. Content (whether you have a question?), Grammar (if you have proper grammar? Whether you use a structure that varies?), Vocabulary (whether the vocabulary used and the exact match, if written properly, and whether the vocabulary used varies ?), and cohesion (essay if you have a good structure? if you use the words effectively?)

Success in writing require the exercise test. Exercise is a need to write tests because you will be able to learn a lot from the mistakes you make. If you are lucky enough to have a teacher who can help you, make sure you bring back the results to analyze the corrections made by your teacher. And do not make the same mistake in writing the next exercise. In the second part of the test, try to give a balanced argument. Just telling your two arguments. If you are writing in your opinion, try to write both sides of the issues before you bring your actual opinion.

Finally, write a clear and neat and make the sign of improvement with crossing line through the wrong part. Do not scratch-scratch. There is no value for the leanliness and hygiene, but the text blowzy mood can make a tester, so do not feel more likely he will give a low value for an essay which is actually bearable!.

:: Reading ::

A difficult question that has weighting the same value with a simple question. So, do not waste time on the rope. Leave it, which is easier to do first. You can return again to the difficult question of when there is still time.

Read the instructions and questions. As you read the question, underline keywords and try to think of a word or words that relate. Words that exist in the literature is usually the paraphrase or the words and sentences of the form of questions.

Depending on the form of a question, use the techniques to read faster and thumb. Read quickly (scanning), namely the eye to your top to bottom, left and right to the text (not to read each line) to search for a word or a phrase or a specific information. Imagine when we are looking for a name in the phone book. Cursory reading (skimming) of each line is read the sentence quickly, ignoring the words grammar and words that we do not understand.

:: General Strategy to get IELTS ::



General Strategy
Read or listen to instructions carefully. Most test participants are school students or university graduates. They are often the various tests and felt that reading the instructions on a test is useless, yet because the instructions they met during this almost always the same. This is a big mistake in the IELTS test. In short, the candidate who does not follow instructions correctly always give the wrong answers. There are various instructions given to the four components in the test, including the 'responsibility to use no more than 3 word' or 'responsibility to use a short phrase. On the instructions first before, using the 4 words, although the core of the answers are correct, will still be considered wrong. On the second instruction, answers form a complete sentence will also be considered incorrect.

Organize your time. You should be aware and conscious of time will be important fir you to think about during taking in the test. At the reading, you have one hour to complete the 3 parts, then do not spend more than 20 minutes for each section. In the writing, make sure that you do not spend more than 20 minutes to the first part of the task, and prepare about 40 minutes for the second task is more important.

Do not panic. If you have a part of this test is difficult, most likely, tens of thousands of people around the world who hold the very day the same tests. Band score value or you will be counted after the results were collected from all over the world and, to a more difficult test, the number of correct answers required will be less to achieve a certain band score. When conducting tests, if you feel less successful in one test section, keep on trying and keep on concentrating to the next section. It is no use thinking of listening when you are working on the reading.
