How to communicate well
First is state your limits. Communicate your boundaries clearly. State what is acceptable and unacceptable. For example, I am not able to listen to you while you speak at that volume. Please speak to me in a quieter voice and I will be able to listen. Second, communicate directly. Communicate clearly instead of hinting. Third, communicate your feelings. Communicate your feelings instead of clamming up. For example, instead of going quiet for 2 days because you seem to be doing everything for everyone you might say, "I am feeling taken for granted at the moment, please can you help me to do the dishes." Fourth, choose the best friends for you. Have people around you with similar values to yourself. Gain support from other people who care about the same things you do. For example, if you think looking after the environment matters, or meditation is good for your soul, have people in your life who think the same way. Then, say, "No, thank you" nicely. Learn how to say, "No, thank you" nicely so you can avoid becoming over committed without feeling guilty.

How to improve English(ii)
Hi, Today I still want to share tips how to improve our English. There have a few tips that I want to share to you. To improve our English, we should watch English films and television. This is not only a fun way to learn but it is also very effective. By watching English films (especially those with English subtitles) you can expand your vocabulary and hear the flow of speech from the actors. If you listen to the news you can also hear different accents. Then, listen to English music. Music can be a very effective method of learning English. In fact, it is often used as a way of improving comprehension. The best way to learn though is to get the lyrics (words) to the songs you are listening to and try to read them as the artist sings. There are several good internet sites where one can find the words for most songs. This way you can practice your listening and reading at the same time. Besides, do exercises and take tests. Many people think that exercises and tests aren't much fun. However, by completing exercises and taking tests you can really improve your English. One of the best reasons for doing lots of exercises and tests is that they give you a benchmark to compare your future results with. Next, record yourself. Nobody likes to hear their own voice on tape but like tests, it is good to compare your tapes from time to time. You may be so impressed with the progress you are making that you may not mind the sound of your voice as much. Lastly, listen to English. By this, we mean, speak on the phone or listen to radio broadcasts or CDs in English. This is different than watching the television or films because you can’t see the person that is speaking to you. Many learners of English say that speaking on the phone is one of the most difficult things that they do and the only way to improve is to practice.
