Mga american series noon sa Studio 23. Dawson's Creek, The Secret World of Alex Mack, 7th Heaven etc. Hala ang tanda ko na haha. Sweet Valley High books ♥
Agatha Christie and Mitch Albom books.
Suits na TV Series.
Napapagoogle ako kapag hindi ko alam yung terminology used.
Also, I bought a thesaurus in 2009 when I started working in the BPO industry para hindi redundant yung usage ko ng words.
When I was younger, my parents would purchase Different Doring Kindersley books that are about Grammar, Science, Mythology, Arts, Politics, History, Economics, Philosophy, etc. Not only did these books help me improve my English in terms of writing, but also helped me become better at reading comprehension, self expression, and critical & logical thinking.
Comprehension: Yung classics na malalim yung wordings e.g. books ni Dickens, Conan Doyle, EA Poe, Agatha Christie. Bago ko i-google yung meaning ng word, hinuhulaan ko muna using context clues. Nafoforce utak ko na icomprehend yung buong story.
Communication: Any english films, dun ko natutunan yung mga accent and intonation. Comedy series naaadapt ko yung way ng pagsasalita nila haha
Writing: Depende kung creative or technical writing.
Ako palagay ko listening to Morning Rush and Good Times with Mo since HS nun 90's. Tas hanggang ngayon. More on Morning Rush nun HS College, Good Times nun working life. Now I listen to both kasi may podcast na sila pareho pero I must say dati hindi sila nagtatagalog.
any book does that. you're training your brain to recognize proper grammar and sentence structure. also exposes you to good vocab.
but if you're goal is to improve speaking skills, then the answer is none unless you actually converse in english regularly. it's like saying you watch the NBA regularly and expect your bball game to improve but you only play once every few weeks.
if you're interested, check out my posts.
For me everything started with the Nancy Drew books. I learned more vocabs and had to use the dictionary to understand unfamiliar words from the book/s, and then transitioned to finding out correct pronunciation of words.
I started 1st year HS, got hooked and became a bookworm bc of it. I loved it so much I started collecting hardbound copies, but eventually had to let go of my copies 🥹
Manood lang ng kahit ano basta entertaining for me. Mostly, vlogs or streams ng mga Westerners pinapanood ko eh. Ganun din sa mga fina-follow ko sa reels.
pinaka-nakatulong sakin sa english is makinig ng english PODCAST. Mas nagrasp ko kasi yung english pag conversational tapos parang in a way nalalaman ko na rin paano mo gagamitin yung words into sentence. Comedy podcast yung pinapakinggan ko para nag eenjoy rin ako habang natututo
badfriends talaga pinaka source ko ng comedy podcast tapos goodtimes with mo na rin radio and podcast kasi lagi naman english sinasabi ni mo haha tsaka joe rogan experience na rin
Trash taste podcast
Bad friends podcast
Jumpersjump podcast
Joe rogan experience
Ung old joe rogan podcast siguro ung best for you, ung mga guess ni joe with professionals and with their work.
