English Entrance Examination (EEE)

The triple E test is not about complex grammar and difficult vocabulary that you would never use in real life. So, when you prepare yourself for the EEE test, you’re also preparing yourself for using English in real life—like at a university or job.

The best way to learn and improve a language is to practice. Whether you’re learning English for fun or preparing for an upcoming English language proficiency test, here below you will find a list of 8 ways to practice English.

1- Change your smartphone’s language to English

Since learning a language is all about surrounding yourself with it, why not start with your smartphone? Change your phone and social media languages to English – you’ll be amazed by how many new words you pick up that you can use in everyday life!

2- Download some fun language-learning apps

Language-learning apps have skyrocketed in popularity thanks to their convenience, affordability, and interactive platform. They make it easy to practice a language in short bursts every day, get instant feedback, track your progress, and have fun while doing it!

3- Read books, magazines, and articles in English

Test your reading comprehension by picking up a book or magazine, or reading online articles in English. One great way to practice reading in English is to read an English book.

4- Tune into your favorite movie, podcast or radio

Listening comprehension will also be tested on most English exams, and movies add an extra element of cultural context that is key to learning a new language. Challenge yourself by watching without subtitles in your native language. If you’re really struggling, turn on subtitles in English to help and improve your reading comprehension.

Mix up your listening comprehension by trying out a podcast or radio show in English. Removing the visual cues makes this slightly more difficult than watching movies, and is more likely the format you’ll encounter on an actual English examination.

5- Label things around your home

It may look a bit silly, but labeling items in your home is a great way to improve your vocabulary.

Label your windows, doors, coffeemaker, refrigerator, blow-dryer, and bedside lamp, and these words will be reinforced just by walking around your home!

6- Write short stories or keep a journal in English

Your ability to write in English will also be tested in the EEE test. So, it’s important to practice your writing skills just as much as your reading, listening, and speaking.

A fun way to do this is to write short stories in English. You don’t need to show anyone these stories – so they don’t have to be award winners! But creative writing like this can be a fun way to practice using a large amount of vocabulary, especially adjectives and nouns in different tenses.

7- Sign up for an online test preparation training

Grammar and a strong vocabulary are your foundation, but the bonus points if you know the tips and strategies to answer the test questions.
