Think English
On a day to day basis there are many things we can do outside of the classroom to improve our fluency in another language.
Thinking in English for example, this is not a process which requires money and will not eat into
your valuable time but can bring many benefits to you as an English student. Thinking in English is a very powerful exercise,
and you may be surprised at how many times you lack vocabulary or structure for a given topic or situation.
As an exercise think of an incident or problem that occurred in the air or on the ground. Go through the problem and imagine
you are interacting with a controller or colleague to describe the problem or situation in plain English. You may be surprised
at how difficult it can be. Go one step further and record your part of the conversation and listen back to
the recording. Be honest, be critical. How was your accent, was your pronunciation acceptable, could you produce flowing stretches of language
could you articulate well?
This is just one of many things you can do to improve your English outside of the classroom.
Switch off from Portuguese and Switch on to English.
You already know Portuguese so help yourself by doing as much as you can in English outside of the classroom. Read in English (grammar, vocabulary and structures), listen to mixed content radio stations in English (comprehension), watch TV or films in English but above all THINK in English.
