The obvious answer is read, a lot, from lots of different sources - factbooks, novels, newspapers, magazines.
Whenever you come across a word you don't know don't stop - try and guess the meaning from the context....
Also write the word down, with the context (the whole sentence it sits in, or more if it's not entirely clear) and look up all the words after you finish (it's a lot easier on the internet than rifling through a dictionary).

Yes, that's common. I would suggest you to watch English cartoons provided that you don't find it too childish. It would help you learn the uses and pronunciations of most of the common words. For more advanced usages, read more of the classic novels and jot down the meanings of the more difficult words. This would etch the words in your memory.Even buy a book on better vocabulary. Good Luck!

Go to a local school and see if they offer either English classes or speach....
Either one will help in vocabulary and expressing yourself.

The more you read, the better your vocabulary becomes. Your writing improves as well.
