And please don't forget to write a list of the new words you meet to improve your vocabulary at the same time and record their meaning and pronunciation.
 

IMPROVE YOUR ENGLISH BY READING AND WATCHING THE NEWS WITH "NEWS IN LEVELS"!

This is a great website to visit when you want to read news and  practice of all your skills at the same time.
Notice how the news articles are presented in a different way according to your level, for example
My suggestion is the following: start with: LEVEL 1 or LEVEL 2 to read and understand the text. You can even use it as a dictation exercise and repeat the sentences to improve your pronunciation!
After that, watch the video in LEVEL 3 even in you don't understand the whole text! It'll be good listening practice too.
