While it is true that reading will help you learn English, you will need to speak English too! The fact is that you might understand the concepts and the rules of the English language and from reading books, you might learn new words but if you do not practice speaking the English language, you will not become a smooth speaker.
Learning the English language can benefit you in many different ways. It can boost your confidence level and allow you to communicate internationally. Being fluent in the English language opens a world of opportunities in that there are more job prospects for you.
It is indeed a fact that the most important focus of the English language is reading, speaking, and listening. However, when you are learning to speak English , the most important aspect is speaking. We see this is children. Children do not lean to read or write first. They learn to speak first and once they have become fluent in speaking, they eventually learn to read and to write.
Most schools focus on teaching English speaking children to read first, then write, then listen and then speak. Schools follow this sequence because it is more important for children to read, understand, and write a language in schools since that they already know how to speak the language.
However, when it comes to non-English speaking people, the sequence changes. They need to speak first before focusing on reading and writing. The fact is that there is no relationship between how smart a person is and whether or not he can speak a language. The fact is that a language can be spoken by anyone. In the same way, everyone is capable of learning at least one other language as long as there is sufficient practice. As long as the person is around the language and people who speak the language, he will be able to become a fluent speaker.
Non-English speaking people do not become fluent in English by reading but by being in an environment with English speaking people. The fact is that it is not necessary to go anwyere to become someone who speaks English fluently. All you need to do is to surround yourself with English speakers thus providing yourself with the opportunity to practice your English.
