Our English Grammar Phrase Book contains one thousand commonly used
phrases. We hope you find it useful with your language learning goals. Learning English
at the very basic levels is all about literal definitions of words in the English language.
Remember that when we first learn English, we learn the literal definitions to help build
basic language structures.
This book has been developed for English language learners at the PreIntermediate or A-2 Level and above. That said, anyone can learn phrases easily with a
few basic rules. Remember that the literal definitions of words individually, is much
different than words used in phrases. Often, its better to forget what you know about a
word alone. Learn the phrase and its usage as a new word. Often a phrase can be
compared to an individual word.
After learning the basics in English, now its time to learn phrases. Study a little
bit everyday. Start at the beginning of this book and ask a friend to help with dialogue.
Working with a friend or teacher is the best way to learn and speak English. Also
remember that many phrases have other meanings that must be used in the proper context.

Five Keys for Learning


to Speak Great English
So youre interested in learning a new language? Congratulations!
Learning a new language can be exciting but, often times, daunting. Never fear
(and we mean that!); heres a list of five things successful language learners do
differently. Read on to find some useful tips to help you reach your language
potential.

1. Set goals: Successful language learners define exactly what they


want to achieve when they start learning a new language. Before you begin
tackling a foreign language, take a few minutes to outline your personal
expectations. Say, for example, you are planning a trip to Ukraine next spring.
During the first month of lessons, set a goal to learn some basic greeting and
dining phrases. If you do not set goals, you may find yourself straying from
your initial intentions, and taking on too much at once. Larisa School of
Language can help you avoid such problems; our experienced language
instructors can assist you in defining your goals, and staying on track.

2. Do a little bit every day: This might seem like a no-brainer, but for
many, finding the time to dedicate to learning a new language can be tricky.
One of the keys, as successful language learners know, is that you must
reserve a little bit of time every day. For example, many Larisa School of
Language students report tackling one lesson every morning while drinking
their coffee. Be realistic; as part of your goals, set a reasonable amount of time
you want to spend learning a new language each day. Larisa School of
Language features an interactive curriculum that allows you to work your way
through learning activities,and pick up right where you left off.

3. Have the right learning aides: Were all different. Therefore, there
is no one size fits all method to learning a foreign language. Successful
language learners realize that tools suitable to your learning style provide a
better language experience. If youre an auditory learner, try listening to native
music and radio, watching native television, and buying audio books in the
target language. If youre a more visual learner, it will be to your benefit to
relate words and scenarios to pictures. Larisa School of Language also features
flash cards in Russian and English to help jog your memory with words and
phrases.

4. Gain real-life experience: Whether that means going to a foreign


country or finding people in your area who speak the language you are
learning, successful language learners know the importance of immersing
themselves with native speakers. At Larisa School of Language, our
instructors are native-born to their language. With Larisa School of Language,
you will be sure to gain experience with instructors who are not only qualified
to teach their language, but can also give you the native interaction you need.

5. Set all fears aside: The most successful language learners are not
afraid to make mistakes. One of the biggest problems beginners have is that
they are afraid to make mistakes, whether in an online classroom or in person.
Successful language learners make themselves vulnerable in a classroom; they
learn from their mistakes, and use that knowledge to further their education.
Those students who make mistakes and continue to try again are able to
advance more quickly than those who sit silently in a classroom.
