How do you feel when you hear "Do you speak English?"
How often does bitterness arise from a useless decade of school and a few more at the institute? Would you like to take courses where you would be taught to speak, read and understand English once and for all?
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”
In this article, I will describe an effective way to learn English . Moreover, it will not only be easy, but also free. I guarantee that your vocabulary will be over 10,000 words and that movies and other books will never be difficult again.
And if you are also an architect or designer, then this is just a must read (to improve your English, as well as to form the integral personality of a creative person).
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”
The novel The Source , written by American writer Ayn Rand , would be the most appropriate example for this technique. In addition, this novel represents a tremendous power of philosophical teaching, helping to understand oneself, one's weaknesses and desires in this world, to find one's own path in life and follow it, despite all difficulties and misunderstandings. Break through despair and opposition. Plus to everything: the most interesting plot and witty dialogues will not leave anyone indifferent.

How can an architect learn English?
What do you need?
1. A little less than a month to read the book itself in translation into Russian or Ukrainian.
To read a novel, for example, it took me 3 weeks, 40 minutes a day.
2. Book in original (in English) audio format.
It can be easily downloaded here . Amazing voice acting will create the feeling that the characters are speaking right in your head. Knowing the essence of the book will make it easier to navigate and understand the course of events. It is possible that some words do not even need translation, because you have experienced these emotions once while reading a book.
3. Semi-children's educational site LinguaLeo .
At first it may seem like this is not serious ... but let's not jump to conclusions. After all, you can get the most out of each tool. I will write about the correct and effective use of this site just below.
4. LinguaLeo application for Android , as well as a browser plugin.
I recommend installing both apps (phone and browser). You can read and do exercises on your phone, and it is very convenient to add new words for learning through the application in the browser.
How to study correctly?
1. We read the book in translation. You can download it here: Part 1. Part 2.
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”
2. Register on LinguaLeo and read the original book in parallel. Go to the Materials tab and search for "The Fountainhead" . After you start it, the system on the computer and on the phone will open the last read page. So you don't have to look for the place where you are staying every time.

3. Listening to an audiobook on the way to work (while jogging or at the gym). Since the novel is quite long, I advise you to use your time rationally. Listening in transport or during training is perfect.
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”
4. Highlight unfamiliar words:
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”


5. When you start adding words, the list in the dictionary will look something like this. Now and during the entire time of reading the book, create vocabulary sets of 50 words.
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”

6. We repeat the sets of words in the required sequence:
1 day - 1 day - 2 days - 1 week - 2 weeks - 1 month - 2 months - 4 months
For convenience, I created just such a table. If necessary, a blank table can be downloaded and adapted for yourself.
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”

Description:
We give each set a name and a sequence number. We fill in the dates of the repetitions. To make it easier to navigate in the next repetition dates, I filled in each month with my own color. Also, it will not be superfluous to mark the material already passed. The table is universal and fits any book.
It has been scientifically proven that this sequence of repetitions allows you to remember information for a long time, translating it into long-term memory.
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”
7. How is the training and the study of words:
In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”

This concludes the description of a simple method of learning English.
It can be applied in any field.
And only in this particular example, we considered a method suitable for architects and designers, since the book contains not only a rich vocabulary from the field of construction, but also a very correct life position of the life of an architect, a person going against the system, against the general passivity of "small" people.
The Source is not just an intellectual novel, it is a challenge to the whole world, where a person is not just a resident, but a creator.
