Reading the SCP wiki is what drastically improved my English. I was reading and listening to people reading those articles and stories almost daily. It made me jump from being decent but still not that proficient to being able to write essays and sustain long discussions relatively well.
The articles being short and mostly self contained made it significantly more easier to stay hooked and far less suseptible to feel bored compared to reading a book.
