Speak English!

Because you can do better than "Where is Brian? Brian is in the kitchen…"

Speaking English can sometimes save your life! Or in a less dramatic point of view, it can help you find a job, communicate with local people when you're abroad, understand the songs you listen to or the movies you watch etc.
Question is, how do you get better at english when you don't always have a teacher or an english-speaking person with you? In these times of great modernity, sharing and globalization, the answer, as you have guessed, is Internet!

Online learning English

First of all, you can find free on-line dictionary such as reverso or the well-known google service.
Other sites are more complete: usingenglish.com for instance provides a whole section of idiomatic expressions with definitions.
Example: you can find out that an "agony aunt" is actually not your old auntie Gertrude suffering from arthritis but "a newspaper columnist who gives advice to people having problems, especially personal ones."
