Indirect learning:
CyberEnd's bilingual environment with
the use of controlled English provides you with a good opportunity
to improve your English by using it. If you want to make the best
of what CybeEnd has to offer, we suggest that you do this:
The best way to improve your
reading is to read the article first in English to get a
general idea, then in Persian to make sure you understand it
completely, and again in English to consolidate the new things you
have learnt.
At this stage, if you chose to move
between the English and the Persian texts and make comparisons
between them, bear in mind that you are not dealing with
word-for-word translations. When you get more used to it, you will realise how useful this kind of "equivalent" texts can be in
learning the natural forms and structures of a language.
If it is an adaptation or article summary
with some references and you have time, it is
a very good idea to click on the link and try to read the original
article, too. It is also useful to have your dictionary handy when
you do this.
To improve your writing, we
suggest you do two things. First, get involved in the discussions
and make comments. Always keep a copy of the comment you have made
because we edit comments before publishing them. By paying
attention to the improvements we have made in your comments, you
can find out about your mistakes and learn to write better. The
second thing you can do is to send us articles, either about your
field of work or about other aspects you are interested in
(interesting things about your town, films, music etc.). If your
article is accepted, it will be edited before publishing, which
can be very useful in improving your writing ability.

Whichever way you are learning a
language (going to language institutes, having
private tutors, self-study), remember that the secret of
learning a language well is in using it! Use any opportunity
you have to use the language you are learning.
By providing a controlled environment
for using languages, CyberEnd.com can help you learn English (or
Persian) better by using them.
