Research has shown that motivation is very important in learning a language; you need to be enthusiastic about it, and to be interested in it. Different people will have different motives-the desire for promotion, the hope of being able to study abroad, curiosity about a very different culture, and pure intellectual enjoyment are only some of the possible motives. But actually wanting to learn is the most important motive of all.
Courage is an essential attribute in learning a language. It takes a lot of courage to speak a foreign language either in front of your friends or to native speakers, but don’t be afraid of making mistakes-that is the way we learn. Nowadays there are many different forms of English, each with its own constructions and accent, and, so long as you can make yourself understood and can understand what is said to you, you have succeeded in communicating, which is the purpose of any language.
Curiosity is not only a possible motivation, it is also a great help in your learning. Remember that a language is not just a grammatical system, it is the outcome of a certain culture or different cultures. It is no good learning strings of words and lists of grammatical rules unless you know as much as possible, about the background of the language, so that you can understand the ideas which are being conveyed, the references which are being made, the inferences which can be drown from the information explicitly given. So learn as much as you can about the different cultures which influence English-watch television programs, listen to the radio, try to obtain newspapers and magazines: which are written by native speakers, look at advertisements, and above all, read-not textbooks, but novels and poems and plays. The will show you how language is really used. The English language is not an abstract system; it is a living form of expression which derives much of its meaning from the context in which it is used , and much of its effect from a whole network of extralinguistic knowledge.
