My New Technique to Enhance My English Vocabulary
It's been six years now since I started learning English by myself as I said before. I have done a lot of trial and error. Sometimes, I change my way of acquiring the language. I believe that reading is the only way to fluency. So, I started reading kids' stories, graded readers, and books. As a person who learns English through self-study, I would recommend reading two things at first. Those two things are graded readers and kids' stories. You shouldn't read something more advanced than your level when you start learning a new language. So, both of them are good to start learning a new language by reading. Nowadays, I changed my method of enhancing my vocabulary by reading. I left reading graded readers, and I shifted to reading articles that I am so interested in; I am so interested in entrepreneurship, marketing, side hustle, self-improvement, writing, and so on…
Every day, I try to find an interesting article on the Flipboard app and I add it on the Pocket app to read it offline or to use its highlight feature. When I start reading an article, I use two steps: the first one I read for pleasure ( I only highlight unfamiliar words,) and in the second one, I read to enhance my vocabulary. I do this process every day, and I got used to it.
By this method, I learn a lot of words because I highlight unfamiliar words. I will continue doing this technique till I reach a higher level in English, and I'll keep you up to date with my

My New Technique to Enhance My English Vocabulary
It's been six years now since I started learning English by myself, as I said before.
While this sentence is grammatically correct, it doesn't really make sense to someone without general context.
I have done a lot of trial and error.
"I have" is often said/written as "I've".
Sometimes, I change mythe way of acquiringI learn the language.
"Acquiring" while not technically wrong, sounded odd here.
I believe that reading is the only way to fluency.
So, I started reading kids' stories, graded readers, and books.
As a person who learns English through self-study, I would recommend reading two thingypes of books at first.
Saying "two things" made me think you meant reading two things at once.
Those two thingypes are graded readers and kids' stories.
You shouldn't read something more advanced than your level when you start learning a new language.
So, both of them are goosuited to start learning a new language by reading.

Great Job! Just a few corrections!

It's been six years now since I started learning English by myself, as I said before.
Could you explain this point?

This was the first sentence in your entry, so while it was grammatically correct, it didn't really make sense to say, "As I said before" unless you specified when you had said it before.
For example: "Like I said before at the student-teacher conference, I didn't do anything wrong!".
I hope this helps!

I write sometimes to share my experience with learning English by myself with others. I think my friends will understand me because they read what I write.

Yes, in that case the sentence would make sense because of the prior context. It was just in this isolated format that it was confusing.
