- How do students feel about their English

2050
00:02
before they join my virtual immersion?
1
2170
2940
00:05
And more importantly,
2
5110
2120
00:07
how do they feel after and what results do they have?

2770
00:10
Let's hear from four people who took the program,
4
10000
2630
00:12
Business English Mastery,
5
12630
1200
00:13
so that you can hear and see for yourself.
6
13830
4180
00:18
When a new student enrolls in Business English Mastery,
7
18010
3220
00:21
I always ask them,
8
21230
1440
00:22
what difficulties do you have, speaking English?
9
22670
3610
00:26
Listen to what four students said
10
26280
2410
00:28
in response to that question.
11
28690
1720
00:30
And maybe you're feeling some of the same things,
12
30410
2700
00:33
so you'll see that you are not alone.
13
33110
2610
00:35
Justine, a project manager in Morocco,
14
35720
2950
00:38
didn't speak English enough in her job
15
38670
2570
00:41
and so, she didn't feel confident.
16
41240
2590
00:43
- I learned English during my studies
17
43830
2460
00:47
and from my previous job,
18
47670
2573
00:51
I use, I speak English only by email
19
51524
2626
00:54
or sometimes very short
20
54150
3180
00:57
and little bit of,
21
57330
2220
00:59
sometimes by,
22
59550
1629
01:01
for some presentation. - Okay
23
61179
2031
01:03
- Now I started a new job
24
63210
2210
01:05
and yeah,
25
65420
1400
01:06
I need to
26
66820
870
01:08
speak more,
27
68560
1180
01:09
you know, more friend
28
69740
1300
01:11
and not thinking to speak out to search my words.
29
71040
4570
01:15
- And Paul Emmanuel felt that her English was okay,
30
75610
4710
01:20
but she was still afraid.
31
80320
2680
01:23
- I think my level
32
83000
2530
01:27
isn't so bad.
33
87182
1485
01:28
But I,
34
88667
833
01:31
I'm afraid
35
91490
1574
01:33
to fail!
36
93064
833
01:33
- Okay got it.
37
93897
833
01:34
- Yes
38
94730
833
01:35
and I prefer
39
95563
917
01:37
to avoid.
40
97670
833
01:38
And yes, I'm not very courageous.
41
98503
4017
01:42
- Then there's Dmitri, the Russian Airline pilot,
42
102520
3150
01:45
who wanted better grammar and more vocabulary.
43
105670
3490
01:49
- So that's why, you know, I need to,
44
109160
2510
01:51
I think work on grammar,
45
111670
1343
01:54
particularly for conditionals.
46
114140
2276
01:56
- Okay, yeah.
47
116416
833
01:57
- Also, I'd like to work on my pronunciation
48
117249
2561
01:59
because sometimes even if you know words,
49
119810
4350
02:04
people cannot understand you because
50
124160
1550
02:05
you pronounced it in a different,
51
125710
1350
02:07
in wrong way, right? - Definitely!
52
127060
1570
02:08
- So, and it makes you shy because,
53
128630
2120
02:10
why
54
130750
1020
02:11
I said the words,
55
131770
1010
02:12
what I really know,
56
132780
1030
02:13
but they don't understand me
57
133810
1940
02:15
what is going on wrong?
58
135750
833
02:16
So it's actually a little bit obstac me sometimes.
59
136583
3980
02:20
- Right.
60
140563
833
02:21
- And also,
61
141396
1444
02:22
I'd like to expand my vocabulary bank.
62
142840
3420
02:26
- And Maxon,
63
146260
1430
02:27
a French coach and founder of his own company,
64
147690
3080
02:30
who just felt bad about his English in general.
65
150770
4112
02:34
- I think I had
66
154882
1071
02:35
the
67
155953
1233
02:37
same difficulties with,
68
157186
3684
02:40
or the plot.
69
160870
833
02:41
Well...
70
161703
833
02:45
I feel myself very
71
165540
1490
02:48
low in every,
72
168430
1503
02:51
each parts.
73
171070
1130
02:52
- Each person had their own unique fears and insecurities
74
172200
3720
02:55
about speaking English,
75
175920
1420
02:57
but they also had a lot of things in common.
76
177340
3190
03:00
They knew that they could do better.
77
180530
2290
03:02
They knew that it was important for their future
78
182820
3560
03:06
and for their career.
79
186380
1220
03:07
It was important for their personal satisfaction also.
80
187600
3400
03:11
And so they decided to do something
81
191000
2410
03:13
to change their situation.
82
193410
2250
03:15
Was it an easy decision?
83
195660
2350
03:18
Maybe,
84
198010
833
03:18
maybe not.
85
198843
833
03:19
You know, sometimes you're busy and you hesitate.
86
199676
3064
03:22
- Before, I
87
202740
1010
03:25
had no any time, okay?
88
205030
1800
03:26
Because
89
206830
833
03:27
I was really, really busy for my job.
90
207663
2617
03:30
- Or you're worried about your level of English
91
210280
2760
03:33
at the beginning.
92
213040
940
03:33
- At the beginning, I had a lot of apprehension.
93
213980
4018
03:37
I was afraid not to be
94
217998
1452
03:41
another advanced,
95
221395
1505
03:42
- Sure yeah right
96
222900
900
03:44
in English.
97
224880
833
03:45
- But despite those hesitations,
98
225713
1997
03:47
you know that you're ready for something different.
99
227710
2580
03:50
You're tired of feeling that frustration,
100
230290
3060
03:53
tired of feeling afraid
101
233350
1710
03:55
every time you have to speak in English.
102
235060
2420
03:57
And you just want someone to help you to get unstuck.
103
237480
5000
04:02
So that you can feel better about yourself,
104
242490
3450
04:05
about using English in your job,
105
245940
2640
04:08
your current and your future opportunities.
106
248580
3240
04:11
So how did they feel
107
251820
1140
04:12
after they finished Business English mastery?
108
252960
2400
04:15
Justine felt more confident!
109
255360
2350
04:17
- It's easier
110
257710
833
04:20
to write, also
111
260600
860
04:23
to speak in English.
112
263990
1640
04:25
- Right, okay!
113
265630
1033
04:27
(mumbles)
114
267882
1808
04:29
- So
115
269690
833
04:31
it was
116
271705
833
04:32
my main objective, my main goal
117
272538
2132
04:34
and I think
118
274670
833
04:36
it's done
119
276860
833
04:37
- Paul Emmanuel felt more credible, more legitimate!
120
277693
3237
04:40
- I feel very confident.
121
280930
1730
04:42
And, yeah, so legitimated on sort of speaking in English.
122
282660
4600
04:47
- Right.
123
287260
833
04:48
- And the return of
124
288093
2877
04:50
the partners
125
290970
1200
04:52
and
126
292170
833
04:53
also the teachers were so ungrading,
127
293003
3246
04:56
that
128
296249
833
04:58
I stopped feeling
129
298082
858
04:59
guilty when I,
130
299850
1462
05:01
- Right? Yeah, sure! Yeah, right!
131
301312
833
05:02
- When I spoke in English.
132
302145
1725
05:03
And it was very very valuable experience.
133
303870
3100
05:08
Thank you very much, Christina!
134
308261
1586
05:09
- Dmitri felt like he spoke more like a native speaker!
135
309847
3703
05:13
- I improved my
136
313550
860
05:15
kind of
137
315520
833
05:17
I'd like to say book open metaphors,
138
317730
2440
05:20
- Yeah
139
320170
937
05:21
and colloquial expressions.
140
321107
1773
05:22
- Yeah.
141
322880
833
05:23
- Now I can use pretty much,
142
323713
2927
05:26
a lot of expressions, actually!
143
326640
2110
05:28
I think it's also making your speech more nature, more,
144
328750
3903
05:34
how I say, it's like a close to Natives.
145
334040
2207
05:36
- And Maxon felt great!
146
336247
2073
05:38
- Now I feel
147
338320
833
05:40
right!
148
340443
833
05:41
I mean,
149
341276
833
05:42
I remember that
150
342109
833
05:42
when we did,
151
342942
921
05:45
the before a variation,
152
345253
947
05:46
I was a bit stressed out or,
153
346200
3690
05:49
at the beginning and at the end.
154
349890
2640
05:52
I feel great!
155
352530
850
05:53
- Awesome! All right.
156
353380
950
05:54
And that's the same confidence
157
354330
2370
05:56
and satisfaction that so many other students have felt
158
356700
4060
06:00
after they completed Business English Mastery.
159
360760
2710
06:03
And now,
160
363470
940
06:04
it's your turn to make that change!
