the tips for learning english:

improve your vocabulary

use english notebooks

watch english films

listen while reading is a good idea.
keep up to date with current events and watch an english-language news station,     

such as bbc world. watch news reports on events you are already aware of.

find out how to switch languages on your tv. if you have digital or satellite tv there are several channels that broadcast in multiple languages. eurosport is one and euronews is another, you should be able to set these to the english language.

improve your speaking

speak clearly, concisely and use simple vocabulary.

avoid idioms and slang

improve your reading

make a habit of reading regularly.

read as many english books, newspapers and magazines as you can find.

find an author you like and read all their books. by doing this you will get used to the style of a particular author and the typical vocabulary and grammar they use. as you read more of his/her books you will find it easier and easier.

if you have a local library find out if they stock english books or if they have bilingual editions of english classics. or ask them to stock english translations of books you are already familiar with.

try reading things more than once. read something and then read it again a few weeks/months later. you should find your understanding has improved.

improve your writing

write frequently, in a wide range of formal and informal situations.

get the most out of your dictionary by understanding how to use it correctly.

copy out short passages of english text from newspapers, magazines or books.

try dictation exercises. you can do this online or get friends to read out text for you to write and then check your writing - concentrate on spelling and punctuation.
