How to learn English is interesting. Scottish addicts, failed interviews, podcasts and Greeks

The topic of learning English is puzzling. On the one hand, effective recipes are extremely simple and accessible to everyone. On the other hand, the information field is filled to overflowing with stereotypes, opinions, promises and other types of noise. By the remoteness of these sides from each other, it can be compared, probably, only with the topic of losing weight (although science is well aware of the solution to this problem ).

TL;DR

Find English analogues of the Russian content that you are reading / listening / watching now, read / listen / watch it every day, learn frequently encountered words and expressions in context, use convenient auxiliary tools - in a couple of years you will know English well. To speak and write well, you will most likely need important life circumstances that require these skills and about the same number of years of practice.
