What is the right age to learn English?
According to leading linguists in the world, parents should let children learn foreign languages as soon as possible. Research by Harvard University shows that learning a second language from the age of 3-5 will help children improve their creativity, and stimulate critical thinking, and developmental flexibility.. If adults often have difficulty memorizing vocabulary or imitating the pronunciation and intonation of native speakers, children have great flexibility when learning English because children have not yet been accustomed to the language. Dominant mother tongue. The preschool years are considered the “golden period” for children to develop their innate language and learning abilities. At this age, a child’s brain is like a “sponge” that absorbs information around. Children are always curious about the world around them, constantly asking “Why” questions, and are especially sensitive to sounds and languages. The period from 3-5 years old is the period of listening and absorbing of children, while the period from 5-7 years old is the period when children naturally select and memorize vocabulary. Therefore, children can take advantage of the absorbing ability of the “sponge” to learn foreign languages naturally and easily imitate the standard pronunciation.
Top Mobile Apps for Learning English
Duolingo
Possibly one of the most popular apps out there, Duolingo comes highly recommended for beginners. With just 20 minutes every day, you can learn English little by little by playing short games. Based on different topics, you can learn up to seven new words per topic and you gain skill points after completion of lessons.
Babbel
Another very popular language app, and for good reason – it is very effective if you want to acquire basic conversational skills. The focus of Babbel is vocabulary, so you get to understand the language better, rather than just memorising words. The lessons are divided in real-world topics, which means it ensures that you can start having comprehensible conversations sooner.
FluentU
This app is quite unique, as it uses engaging real-world videos; such as commercials and news, to turn them into English-learning experiences. You ease into a natural culture and similar to Babbel, you can start having conversation right away on every day or more meaningful topics. Learning English as it’s spoken in real life will also help you form an accent, if that’s what you are also after.
Rosetta Stone
The most famous app, the method it uses is also quite a unique one, because Rosetta Stone will not give you any translations in your own language. This is a cold-turkey method, where you are immersed in the language and there is no way out – except learning it! The app includes exercises to help you with basic words, before eventually move on to forming phrases and sentences.
Memrise
Slightly similar to another app called MindSnacks, the focus of Memrise is to learn English words, more than anything else. But its particularity is that it uses humour to help you memorise the words in question. Surely, if something is funny, you will be sure to remember it better. The Memrise courses are also created and designed by other users like yourself, which makes it a really friendly, true-to-form experience.
HelloEnglish
Known as Asia’s ‘largest English learning platform’, HelloEnglish is what is known as a spoken English app. The learning app has some interesting features such as interactive modules where the user can do his lessons through games. You can also build on your reading, writing and listening skills by using its bilingual dictionary.

2. Create a Study Plan Develop a personalized study schedule based on your strengths and weaknesses, ensuring efficient use of your time.
3. Study the Right Material Consider attending an IELTS preparation course to familiarize yourself with exam materials and strategies. If courses are not an option, work with a qualified tutor who can guide your preparation.
4. Practice for Confidence Boost your confidence by practicing regularly. Speak English with friends, skim through reading passages, and listen to English news or music daily to sharpen your skills.
5. Practice Under Time Constraints Simulate exam conditions by taking practice tests within the 2 hours and 45-minute time frame. This will help you manage your time effectively on the actual test day.
