but she was asking again specifically what can I do to teach non-native

what can I do to teach non-native

what can I do to teach non-native English speaking children English and

English speaking children English and

English speaking children English and help them learn so they actually want to

help them learn so they actually want to

help them learn so they actually want to speak so we're gonna talk about that but

speak so we're gonna talk about that but

speak so we're gonna talk about that but just a bit of a background about this as

just a bit of a background about this as

just a bit of a background about this as well even before that so I've been

well even before that so I've been

well even before that so I've been helping people learn as I said for a

helping people learn as I said for a

helping people learn as I said for a long time and the way I teach I never

long time and the way I teach I never

long time and the way I teach I never really had a good name for it until

really had a good name for it until

really had a good name for it until recently and it's kind of something else

recently and it's kind of something else

recently and it's kind of something else like in a similar way that what I do I

like in a similar way that what I do I

like in a similar way that what I do I kind of develop this idea of being an

kind of develop this idea of being an

kind of develop this idea of being an English fluency guide because I'm not

English fluency guide because I'm not

English fluency guide because I'm not here to try to teach you the language

here to try to teach you the language

here to try to teach you the language it's more making the language

it's more making the language

it's more making the language understandable so that people want to

understandable so that people want to

understandable so that people want to practice want to speak and so I'm more

practice want to speak and so I'm more

practice want to speak and so I'm more of a guide for fluency as opposed to

of a guide for fluency as opposed to

of a guide for fluency as opposed to teaching the language and I'll make that

teaching the language and I'll make that

teaching the language and I'll make that point more clear about this but I was

point more clear about this but I was

point more clear about this but I was really excited so lately I've been

really excited so lately I've been

really excited so lately I've been talking about this idea with my

talking about this idea with my

talking about this idea with my newsletter subscribers and I thought I'd

newsletter subscribers and I thought I'd

newsletter subscribers and I thought I'd make a video about it to answer a man's

make a video about it to answer a man's

make a video about it to answer a man's question but also just to help a lot of

question but also just to help a lot of

question but also just to help a lot of other learners too because I know a lot

other learners too because I know a lot

other learners too because I know a lot of people are interested in this anyway

of people are interested in this anyway

of people are interested in this anyway basically the idea is we're gonna we're

basically the idea is we're gonna we're

basically the idea is we're gonna we're gonna cover a whole bunch of things in

gonna cover a whole bunch of things in

gonna cover a whole bunch of things in this video but the most important one is

this video but the most important one is

this video but the most important one is the problem that people experience so

the problem that people experience so

the problem that people experience so part of this is what Iman was talking

part of this is what Iman was talking

part of this is what Iman was talking about about how to help actually people

about about how to help actually people

about about how to help actually people learn the English language or really

learn the English language or really

learn the English language or really this is a video for any language if

this is a video for any language if

this is a video for any language if you're a teacher of any language and

you're a teacher of any language and

you're a teacher of any language and I'll explain why as we go through the

I'll explain why as we go through the

I'll explain why as we go through the video but also it's a problem for people

video but also it's a problem for people

video but also it's a problem for people who have already been learning the

who have already been learning the

who have already been learning the language so many of the people watching

language so many of the people watching

language so many of the people watching this will likely be students of mine

this will likely be students of mine

this will likely be students of mine they've been learning the language for

they've been learning the language for

they've been learning the language for many years now they are adults and they

many years now they are adults and they

many years now they are adults and they understand they know a lot of words in

understand they know a lot of words in

understand they know a lot of words in grammar but they have trouble expressing

grammar but they have trouble expressing

grammar but they have trouble expressing themselves they can't actually put

themselves they can't actually put

themselves they can't actually put everything together in conversations so

everything together in conversations so

everything together in conversations so basically there are actually a lot of

basically there are actually a lot of

basically there are actually a lot of different problems people have and I'm

different problems people have and I'm

different problems people have and I'm going to tell you that they all come

going to tell you that they all come

going to tell you that they all come from the same place in this video so

from the same place in this video so

from the same place in this video so kind of general problems people have

kind of general problems people have

kind of general problems people have like you know maybe you are a learner

like you know maybe you are a learner

like you know maybe you are a learner and you struggle with some of these

and you struggle with some of these

and you struggle with some of these maybe you forget your words when you

maybe you forget your words when you

maybe you forget your words when you speak like inside of a speaking

speak like inside of a speaking

speak like inside of a speaking conversation or you know some other

conversation or you know some other

conversation or you know some other situation where you have to communicate

situation where you have to communicate

situation where you have to communicate you forget the words that you want to

you forget the words that you want to

you forget the words that you want to say or you have to think about grammar

say or you have to think about grammar

say or you have to think about grammar rules and translating your head before

rules and translating your head before

rules and translating your head before you speak or you really have trouble

you speak or you really have trouble

you speak or you really have trouble understanding native speakers in

understanding native speakers in

understanding native speakers in conversations or movies and TV shows but

conversations or movies and TV shows but

conversations or movies and TV shows but you can understand what I'm saying quite

you can understand what I'm saying quite

you can understand what I'm saying quite well so I'm going to explain basically

well so I'm going to explain basically

well so I'm going to explain basically why this happens all these problems that

why this happens all these problems that

why this happens all these problems that people have as learners and what we

people have as learners and what we

people have as learners and what we start doing for when we're helping young

start doing for when we're helping young

start doing for when we're helping young children learn the language too we

children learn the language too we

children learn the language too we basically all do the same thing which is

basically all do the same thing which is

basically all do the same thing which is teach them what I call the wrong way

teach them what I call the wrong way

teach them what I call the wrong way and this is because of something I call

and this is because of something I call

and this is because of something I call the great language learning live if

the great language learning live if

the great language learning live if you've not heard about this this is just

you've not heard about this this is just

you've not heard about this this is just an idea that I've been thinking about

an idea that I've been thinking about

an idea that I've been thinking about for a while and again it's taking me a

for a while and again it's taking me a

for a while and again it's taking me a long time actually many years to think

long time actually many years to think

long time actually many years to think about a great way to express this to

about a great way to express this to

about a great way to express this to make it really obvious for people and

make it really obvious for people and

make it really obvious for people and very clear what the problems are the

very clear what the problems are the

very clear what the problems are the reason that so many people have trouble

reason that so many people have trouble

reason that so many people have trouble being able to understand people or have

being able to understand people or have

being able to understand people or have trouble expressing themselves in

trouble expressing themselves in

trouble expressing themselves in conversations so what I call the great

conversations so what I call the great

conversations so what I call the great language learning lie is really the idea

language learning lie is really the idea

language learning lie is really the idea that there's such a thing as a second

that there's such a thing as a second

that there's such a thing as a second language now I know this sounds kind of

language now I know this sounds kind of

language now I know this sounds kind of weird and you might listen to that and

weird and you might listen to that and

weird and you might listen to that and that sounds like a kind of controversial

that sounds like a kind of controversial

that sounds like a kind of controversial thing isn't it obvious that there are

thing isn't it obvious that there are

thing isn't it obvious that there are many different you know languages and so

many different you know languages and so

many different you know languages and so you would learn something like your

you would learn something like your

you would learn something like your native language that's what you speak at

native language that's what you speak at

native language that's what you speak at home with your parents and then when you

home with your parents and then when you

home with your parents and then when you go to school or if you go to a different

go to school or if you go to a different

go to school or if you go to a different country or something you would speak

country or something you would speak

country or something you would speak what's called a second language now as

what's called a second language now as

what's called a second language now as far as I'm concerned when I'm thinking

far as I'm concerned when I'm thinking

far as I'm concerned when I'm thinking about learning a second language or I'm

about learning a second language or I'm

about learning a second language or I'm trying to help other people learn a

trying to help other people learn a

trying to help other people learn a second language I want them to

second language I want them to

second language I want them to understand that there really is no such

understand that there really is no such

understand that there really is no such thing as a second language and I'll

thing as a second language and I'll

thing as a second language and I'll explain why

explain why

explain why in a little bit but first let's just

in a little bit but first let's just

in a little bit but first let's just talk about the problems of having this

talk about the problems of having this

talk about the problems of having this belief so this belief that there is such

belief so this belief that there is such

belief so this belief that there is such a thing as a second language and because

a thing as a second language and because

a thing as a second language and because there is such a thing as a second

there is such a thing as a second

there is such a thing as a second language you need to teach the way that

language you need to teach the way that

language you need to teach the way that there is such a thing as a second

there is such a thing as a second

there is such a thing as a second language so just to make sure this is

language so just to make sure this is

language so just to make sure this is not confusing really the problem is that

not confusing really the problem is that

not confusing really the problem is that teachers in general and this isn't like

teachers in general and this isn't like

teachers in general and this isn't like they consciously think about it everyone

they consciously think about it everyone

they consciously think about it everyone just kind of assumes this is the correct

just kind of assumes this is the correct

just kind of assumes this is the correct way to teach that there is such a thing

way to teach that there is such a thing

way to teach that there is such a thing as a second language and this is really

as a second language and this is really

as a second language and this is really what we have for a typical second

what we have for a typical second

what we have for a typical second language learning system so we'll begin

language learning system so we'll begin

language learning system so we'll begin over here with the actual original

over here with the actual original

over here with the actual original language I just call it the lesson but

language I just call it the lesson but

language I just call it the lesson but it could be vocabulary or phrase or some

it could be vocabulary or phrase or some

it could be vocabulary or phrase or some cultural thing whatever that happens to

cultural thing whatever that happens to

cultural thing whatever that happens to be and for younger students maybe it's

be and for younger students maybe it's

be and for younger students maybe it's just a simple word like a color or a

just a simple word like a color or a

just a simple word like a color or a shape or an animal name or something

shape or an animal name or something

shape or an animal name or something like that and then all the way over here

like that and then all the way over here

like that and then all the way over here we have the student now I call this

we have the student now I call this

we have the student now I call this second language learning again because

second language learning again because

second language learning again because people have an idea that there's such a

people have an idea that there's such a

people have an idea that there's such a thing as a second language and if

thing as a second language and if

thing as a second language and if there's a second language then you need

there's a second language then you need

there's a second language then you need to have a way of learning a second

to have a way of learning a second

to have a way of learning a second language so you begin with the lesson

language so you begin with the lesson

language so you begin with the lesson this is the original language over here

this is the original language over here

this is the original language over here what's spoken on the streets or in

what's spoken on the streets or in

what's spoken on the streets or in movies and TV shows and then as you move

movies and TV shows and then as you move

movies and TV shows and then as you move closer and closer to the student you

closer and closer to the student you

closer and closer to the student you have all these different steps that get

have all these different steps that get

have all these different steps that get added into the process that really start

added into the process that really start

added into the process that really start to complicate things and this is what

to complicate things and this is what

to complicate things and this is what creates all these problems up here so

creates all these problems up here so

creates all these problems up here so the first thing the really really the

the first thing the really really the

the first thing the really really the worst thing you can do if you're trying

worst thing you can do if you're trying

worst thing you can do if you're trying to help someone learn a language and

to help someone learn a language and

to help someone learn a language and again there are these two ideas about

again there are these two ideas about

again there are these two ideas about learning one is actually just learning

learning one is actually just learning

learning one is actually just learning some words which is maybe you're

some words which is maybe you're

some words which is maybe you're traveling to a different country and you

traveling to a different country and you

traveling to a different country and you learn something like please or thank you

learn something like please or thank you

learn something like please or thank you just so you can communicate in very

just so you can communicate in very

just so you can communicate in very basic ways but then there's actual

basic ways but then there's actual

basic ways but then there's actual acquisition where you're trying for

acquisition where you're trying for

acquisition where you're trying for fluency and you want to be able to

fluency and you want to be able to

fluency and you want to be able to communicate what you're using and what

communicate what you're using and what

communicate what you're using and what you're learning without thinking about

you're learning without thinking about

you're learning without thinking about it so again there's these kind of two

it so again there's these kind of two

it so again there's these kind of two different ideas and so this process here

different ideas and so this process here

different ideas and so this process here basically it's what I call something is

basically it's what I call something is

basically it's what I call something is very dangerous I call this a very

very dangerous I call this a very

very dangerous I call this a very dangerous way of learning because it

dangerous way of learning because it

dangerous way of learning because it does teach the language and people when

does teach the language and people when

does teach the language and people when they go through this process they do

they go through this process they do

they go through this process they do learn lots of words and phrases the

learn lots of words and phrases the

learn lots of words and phrases the problem is that it doesn't

problem is that it doesn't

problem is that it doesn't help them with fluency and here's why so

help them with fluency and here's why so

help them with fluency and here's why so you begin again with the lesson and then

you begin again with the lesson and then

you begin again with the lesson and then you move to the language where you're

you move to the language where you're

you move to the language where you're translating something already because

translating something already because

translating something already because most people are learning English

most people are learning English

most people are learning English especially young children through their

especially young children through their

especially young children through their native language so if I'm in Japan I go

native language so if I'm in Japan I go

native language so if I'm in Japan I go into a regular classroom with a Japanese

into a regular classroom with a Japanese

into a regular classroom with a Japanese teacher that's teaching English and most

teacher that's teaching English and most

teacher that's teaching English and most of the lesson most of the actual

of the lesson most of the actual

of the lesson most of the actual information that's communicated to the

information that's communicated to the

information that's communicated to the student is all in Japanese it's the same

student is all in Japanese it's the same

student is all in Japanese it's the same thing with the textbook they have lots

thing with the textbook they have lots

thing with the textbook they have lots of Japanese written in the textbook it's

of Japanese written in the textbook it's

of Japanese written in the textbook it's giving explanations about things it's

giving explanations about things it's

giving explanations about things it's giving translations and it's giving ways

giving translations and it's giving ways

giving translations and it's giving ways of pronouncing words through Japanese so

of pronouncing words through Japanese so

of pronouncing words through Japanese so again we're beginning with really the

again we're beginning with really the

again we're beginning with really the worst thing possible that you can do for

worst thing possible that you can do for

worst thing possible that you can do for trying to help someone actually

trying to help someone actually

trying to help someone actually communicate in a second language

communicate in a second language

communicate in a second language it's not bad for trying to teach

it's not bad for trying to teach

it's not bad for trying to teach something I can communicate something I

something I can communicate something I

something I can communicate something I can explain a rule to you but often just

can explain a rule to you but often just

can explain a rule to you but often just like the lessons that we learn in life

like the lessons that we learn in life

like the lessons that we learn in life someone can tell us something just like

someone can tell us something just like

someone can tell us something just like I can tell my daughter hey don't touch

I can tell my daughter hey don't touch

I can tell my daughter hey don't touch the stove or you're going to burn

the stove or you're going to burn

the stove or you're going to burn yourself and she says okay daddy you

yourself and she says okay daddy you

yourself and she says okay daddy you know she's not really paying attention

know she's not really paying attention

know she's not really paying attention but when she actually touches the stove

but when she actually touches the stove

but when she actually touches the stove and burns herself that's the real lesson

and burns herself that's the real lesson

and burns herself that's the real lesson that's where the acquisition comes from

that's where the acquisition comes from

that's where the acquisition comes from so again this idea we begin with the

so again this idea we begin with the

so again this idea we begin with the actual language and then slowly the

actual language and then slowly the

actual language and then slowly the language begins to shift it begins to

language begins to shift it begins to

language begins to shift it begins to change and so we have not really the

change and so we have not really the

change and so we have not really the actual English anymore if we're talking

actual English anymore if we're talking

actual English anymore if we're talking about learning English we begin to have

about learning English we begin to have

about learning English we begin to have like the Chinese version of that or the

like the Chinese version of that or the

like the Chinese version of that or the Japanese version or Portuguese or

Japanese version or Portuguese or

Japanese version or Portuguese or whatever the language is you're learning

whatever the language is you're learning

whatever the language is you're learning it in next we take that what we're doing

it in next we take that what we're doing

it in next we take that what we're doing we're translating something and then we

we're translating something and then we

we're translating something and then we also look at the formal vocabulary of

also look at the formal vocabulary of

also look at the formal vocabulary of what people are learning in English for

what people are learning in English for

what people are learning in English for reading and writing and this is mostly

reading and writing and this is mostly

reading and writing and this is mostly because people are taking tests and for

because people are taking tests and for

because people are taking tests and for you know whatever academic tests or

you know whatever academic tests or

you know whatever academic tests or things like that that they need to go

things like that that they need to go

things like that that they need to go from one level of schooling to another

from one level of schooling to another

from one level of schooling to another or to be able to get like you know pass

or to be able to get like you know pass

or to be able to get like you know pass a particular exam to get a job or that

a particular exam to get a job or that

a particular exam to get a job or that kind of thing so we already have a

kind of thing so we already have a

kind of thing so we already have a limited vocabulary that's more of the

limited vocabulary that's more of the

limited vocabulary that's more of the formal language than what you would hear

formal language than what you would hear

formal language than what you would hear again in an actual movie or TV show

again in an actual movie or TV show

again in an actual movie or TV show something like that again we move into

something like that again we move into

something like that again we move into teaching the the rules and the structure

teaching the the rules and the structure

teaching the the rules and the structure of the language

of the language

of the language actually by telling people what the

actually by telling people what the

actually by telling people what the rules are instead of helping people

rules are instead of helping people

rules are instead of helping people understand what the rules mean and again

understand what the rules mean and again

understand what the rules mean and again this is different I'll explain a little

this is different I'll explain a little

this is different I'll explain a little bit more about how you should be doing

bit more about how you should be doing

bit more about how you should be doing this but I just want to make these

this but I just want to make these

this but I just want to make these different steps clear and also one more

different steps clear and also one more

different steps clear and also one more thing is that it's not really you do

thing is that it's not really you do

thing is that it's not really you do this thing and then this thing and then

this thing and then this thing and then

this thing and then this thing and then this thing and some people may be like

this thing and some people may be like

this thing and some people may be like you do try to have some other kind of

you do try to have some other kind of

you do try to have some other kind of vocabulary so you're missing one step or

vocabulary so you're missing one step or

vocabulary so you're missing one step or another but this is generally how the

another but this is generally how the

another but this is generally how the process works it's a couple of these

process works it's a couple of these

process works it's a couple of these things all together and the point is

things all together and the point is

things all together and the point is really that we're separating the lesson

really that we're separating the lesson

really that we're separating the lesson the real English from the learner so we

the real English from the learner so we

the real English from the learner so we move again from the grammar rules or

move again from the grammar rules or

move again from the grammar rules or whatever kinds of ideas we are we're

whatever kinds of ideas we are we're

whatever kinds of ideas we are we're trying to have them learn vocabulary by

trying to have them learn vocabulary by

trying to have them learn vocabulary by studying lists of things trying to

studying lists of things trying to

studying lists of things trying to memorize them or use lots of flashcards

memorize them or use lots of flashcards

memorize them or use lots of flashcards and then the final thing we have here is

and then the final thing we have here is

and then the final thing we have here is slowed speech so this is where we take

slowed speech so this is where we take

slowed speech so this is where we take something like a listening practice

something like a listening practice

something like a listening practice exercise and we're listening to it if

exercise and we're listening to it if

exercise and we're listening to it if I'm a student in a classroom here in

I'm a student in a classroom here in

I'm a student in a classroom here in Japan I would listen oh it's really very

Japan I would listen oh it's really very

Japan I would listen oh it's really very slow and very easy to understand kind of

slow and very easy to understand kind of

slow and very easy to understand kind of like the way I'm speaking now so the way

like the way I'm speaking now so the way

like the way I'm speaking now so the way I speak in a lesson like if I'm trying

I speak in a lesson like if I'm trying

I speak in a lesson like if I'm trying to teach things and I know non-native

to teach things and I know non-native

to teach things and I know non-native speakers will be listening to that I'm

speakers will be listening to that I'm

speakers will be listening to that I'm communicating in a different way than I

communicating in a different way than I

communicating in a different way than I would normally if I'm just talking to

would normally if I'm just talking to

would normally if I'm just talking to friends or family or even my daughter

friends or family or even my daughter

friends or family or even my daughter now but again where we're going here and

now but again where we're going here and

now but again where we're going here and then by the time the student actually

then by the time the student actually

then by the time the student actually touches the language it's gone through

touches the language it's gone through

touches the language it's gone through all these filters basically they're just

all these filters basically they're just

all these filters basically they're just filtering the language and changing it

filtering the language and changing it

filtering the language and changing it and trying to make it it's I know the

and trying to make it it's I know the

and trying to make it it's I know the idea is to make it easier for the for

idea is to make it easier for the for

idea is to make it easier for the for the student to understand but the

the student to understand but the

the student to understand but the problem is that we're making it more

problem is that we're making it more

problem is that we're making it more difficult for them to actually

difficult for them to actually

difficult for them to actually communicate so here's basically the two

communicate so here's basically the two

communicate so here's basically the two big problems that we have from this I've

big problems that we have from this I've

big problems that we have from this I've already explained that number one the

already explained that number one the

already explained that number one the language is changing so the original

language is changing so the original

language is changing so the original language here if we translate it we only

language here if we translate it we only

language here if we translate it we only teach the formal vocabulary we try to

teach the formal vocabulary we try to

teach the formal vocabulary we try to take the rules and make them easier to

take the rules and make them easier to

take the rules and make them easier to understand even though they actually

understand even though they actually

understand even though they actually become more difficult like you can tell

become more difficult like you can tell

become more difficult like you can tell I can tell you what a grammar rule is

I can tell you what a grammar rule is

I can tell you what a grammar rule is but being able to use that grammar rule

but being able to use that grammar rule

but being able to use that grammar rule correctly and automatically that's not

correctly and automatically that's not

correctly and automatically that's not really something you learn to do using

really something you learn to do using

really something you learn to do using this step and then also the speech is

this step and then also the speech is

this step and then also the speech is much slower so because the language

much slower so because the language

much slower so because the language changes this makes it really really

changes this makes it really really

changes this makes it really really difficult for learners

difficult for learners

difficult for learners who want to understand this you're

who want to understand this you're

who want to understand this you're essentially separating the learner from

essentially separating the learner from

essentially separating the learner from the actual language they want to learn

the actual language they want to learn

the actual language they want to learn and as the language changes by the time

and as the language changes by the time

and as the language changes by the time it gets to them when they have to go

it gets to them when they have to go

it gets to them when they have to go back into an actual speaking situation

back into an actual speaking situation

back into an actual speaking situation so the person that's maybe learning like

so the person that's maybe learning like

so the person that's maybe learning like the Chinese learner that's learning

the Chinese learner that's learning

the Chinese learner that's learning English in a school when they go out

English in a school when they go out

English in a school when they go out into the real world and try to

into the real world and try to

into the real world and try to communicate they have to jump all the

communicate they have to jump all the

communicate they have to jump all the way back to this this is the language

way back to this this is the language

way back to this this is the language that people are really speaking but the

that people are really speaking but the

that people are really speaking but the language they learned is something

language they learned is something

language they learned is something that's basically completely different

that's basically completely different

that's basically completely different and this is why so many people have a

and this is why so many people have a

and this is why so many people have a really hard time understanding native

really hard time understanding native

really hard time understanding native speakers because the speech is faster

speakers because the speech is faster

speakers because the speech is faster there are idioms and slang and other

there are idioms and slang and other

there are idioms and slang and other conversational vocabulary that you don't

conversational vocabulary that you don't

conversational vocabulary that you don't really learn again because you're

really learn again because you're

really learn again because you're getting the limited formal vocabulary

getting the limited formal vocabulary

getting the limited formal vocabulary for reading and writing and then again

for reading and writing and then again

for reading and writing and then again because it's really slow because of what

because it's really slow because of what

because it's really slow because of what you learned with the slow listening

you learned with the slow listening

you learned with the slow listening practice exercises when everybody is

practice exercises when everybody is

practice exercises when everybody is really fast you get overwhelmed there's

really fast you get overwhelmed there's

really fast you get overwhelmed there's too much information and it makes it

too much information and it makes it

too much information and it makes it really difficult now of course this is

really difficult now of course this is

really difficult now of course this is just for the learning phase of this

just for the learning phase of this

just for the learning phase of this what's really difficult is when you have

what's really difficult is when you have

what's really difficult is when you have to try to reverse this process and go

to try to reverse this process and go

to try to reverse this process and go back when you actually want to speak so

back when you actually want to speak so

back when you actually want to speak so this is just listening if I'm just in a

this is just listening if I'm just in a

this is just listening if I'm just in a classroom I don't even open my mouth

classroom I don't even open my mouth

classroom I don't even open my mouth someone is teaching me French or Spanish

someone is teaching me French or Spanish

someone is teaching me French or Spanish or Italian or whatever the languages and

or Italian or whatever the languages and

or Italian or whatever the languages and they're using this typical second

they're using this typical second

they're using this typical second language learning system I've learned

language learning system I've learned

language learning system I've learned the language okay I understand something

the language okay I understand something

the language okay I understand something but when I try to speak what do I have

but when I try to speak what do I have

but when I try to speak what do I have to do I have to read I have to read like

to do I have to read I have to read like

to do I have to read I have to read like redo all of these steps I have to work

redo all of these steps I have to work

redo all of these steps I have to work back all this this is why people

back all this this is why people

back all this this is why people translate in their head and they get

translate in their head and they get

translate in their head and they get stuck thinking about grammar rules they

stuck thinking about grammar rules they

stuck thinking about grammar rules they have to you know really worried about

have to you know really worried about

have to you know really worried about their communication they worry about

their communication they worry about

their communication they worry about making mistakes how's my pronunciation

making mistakes how's my pronunciation

making mistakes how's my pronunciation all of these things come because now

all of these things come because now

all of these things come because now they're trying to reverse these steps as

they're trying to reverse these steps as

they're trying to reverse these steps as they go back to try to communicate in

they go back to try to communicate in

they go back to try to communicate in the actual language so what they do is

the actual language so what they do is

the actual language so what they do is they communicate in the language they've

they communicate in the language they've

they communicate in the language they've been taught which is this really slow

been taught which is this really slow

been taught which is this really slow limited vocabulary and they try to use

limited vocabulary and they try to use

limited vocabulary and they try to use grammar rules but they aren't correct

grammar rules but they aren't correct

grammar rules but they aren't correct and so that's why they end up sounding

and so that's why they end up sounding

and so that's why they end up sounding like robots when they speak so if this

like robots when they speak so if this

like robots when they speak so if this is you if you have this problem again

is you if you have this problem again

is you if you have this problem again it's really all these different things

it's really all these different things

it's really all these different things here that come from this one idea so I

here that come from this one idea so I

here that come from this one idea so I hope you understand this is incredibly

hope you understand this is incredibly

hope you understand this is incredibly important and it's really the gray

important and it's really the gray

important and it's really the gray language-learning lie that there's such

language-learning lie that there's such

language-learning lie that there's such a such a thing as the second language

a such a thing as the second language

a such a thing as the second language and I'll show you why that's not true in

and I'll show you why that's not true in

and I'll show you why that's not true in just a moment but I really want you to

just a moment but I really want you to

just a moment but I really want you to understand this is if you have been in

understand this is if you have been in

understand this is if you have been in this situation maybe you are a teacher

this situation maybe you are a teacher

this situation maybe you are a teacher yourself where you've been a learner and

yourself where you've been a learner and

yourself where you've been a learner and you experienced all these problems you

you experienced all these problems you

you experienced all these problems you have problems understanding and you have

have problems understanding and you have

have problems understanding and you have have excuse me have actual problems

have excuse me have actual problems

have excuse me have actual problems communicating like I'm having right now

communicating like I'm having right now

communicating like I'm having right now if you struggle with this it's not your

if you struggle with this it's not your

if you struggle with this it's not your fault the reason is because of this way

fault the reason is because of this way

fault the reason is because of this way of teaching but I'm going to explain

of teaching but I'm going to explain

of teaching but I'm going to explain right now that it doesn't have to be

right now that it doesn't have to be that way

that way

that way so for aman and for all the other

so for aman and for all the other

so for aman and for all the other teachers out there i know a lot of

teachers out there i know a lot of

teachers out there i know a lot of teachers follow me and what i do so i

teachers follow me and what i do so i

teachers follow me and what i do so i really want to make my my style of

really want to make my my style of

really want to make my my style of teaching the way of showing people how

teaching the way of showing people how

teaching the way of showing people how something works so they understand it

something works so they understand it

something works so they understand it automatically and they can use it

automatically and they can use it

automatically and they can use it automatically this is what you should be

automatically this is what you should be

automatically this is what you should be doing so again this is the the the

doing so again this is the the the

doing so again this is the the the reason why people struggle to

reason why people struggle to

reason why people struggle to communicate and struggle to understand

communicate and struggle to understand

communicate and struggle to understand is because of all these steps so you

is because of all these steps so you

is because of all these steps so you have the language changing the language

have the language changing the language

have the language changing the language itself changes like what you learn in a

itself changes like what you learn in a

itself changes like what you learn in a classroom is different from what's

classroom is different from what's

classroom is different from what's spoken in the streets and then all these

spoken in the streets and then all these

spoken in the streets and then all these different steps they essentially inhibit

different steps they essentially inhibit

different steps they essentially inhibit fluency although they're actually

fluency although they're actually

fluency although they're actually helping you learn the language so i

helping you learn the language so i

helping you learn the language so i might be able to sit down and take a

might be able to sit down and take a

might be able to sit down and take a test but i can't really communicate in

test but i can't really communicate in

test but i can't really communicate in that language and that's again the

that language and that's again the

that language and that's again the difference between learning something

difference between learning something

difference between learning something and actually acquiring the language

and actually acquiring the language

and actually acquiring the language developing fluency which is what my

developing fluency which is what my

developing fluency which is what my focus is so i want to try to help people

focus is so i want to try to help people

focus is so i want to try to help people who have gone through this process and

who have gone through this process and

who have gone through this process and show them that there's a better way of

show them that there's a better way of

show them that there's a better way of doing it but even more importantly to

doing it but even more importantly to

doing it but even more importantly to take all the young students who have not

take all the young students who have not

take all the young students who have not even been exposed to you know a second

even been exposed to you know a second

even been exposed to you know a second language yet and show them that there's

language yet and show them that there's

language yet and show them that there's actually a better way to do it

actually a better way to do it

actually a better way to do it especially for learning english because

especially for learning english because

especially for learning english because it's such an important thing just to

it's such an important thing just to

it's such an important thing just to make this point really clear just a few

make this point really clear just a few

make this point really clear just a few examples of this idea of even just the

examples of this idea of even just the

examples of this idea of even just the language changing but the different

language changing but the different

language changing but the different steps that you have here maybe you

steps that you have here maybe you

steps that you have here maybe you remember playing a game called telephone

remember playing a game called telephone

remember playing a game called telephone when you were a young child you would

when you were a young child you would

when you were a young child you would have a group of kids either sitting down

have a group of kids either sitting down

have a group of kids either sitting down or standing in a line and the first

or standing in a line and the first

or standing in a line and the first child would say something they would

child would say something they would

child would say something they would whisper into the second child zere and

whisper into the second child zere and

whisper into the second child zere and then the next child and they would pass

then the next child and they would pass

then the next child and they would pass that information on you know to the next

that information on you know to the next

that information on you know to the next person the next person in the next

person the next person in the next

person the next person in the next person and then by the end of that line

person and then by the end of that line

person and then by the end of that line again you have this system here where

again you have this system here where

again you have this system here where the language is slowly changing

the language is slowly changing

the language is slowly changing changing in that same way so this is a

changing in that same way so this is a

changing in that same way so this is a very natural thing that happens as a

very natural thing that happens as a

very natural thing that happens as a result of you just take something like

result of you just take something like

result of you just take something like this and continue to add more steps

this and continue to add more steps

this and continue to add more steps between the sender of the message and

between the sender of the message and

between the sender of the message and the receiver of the message over here

the receiver of the message over here

the receiver of the message over here even if you're trying to be perfect it's

even if you're trying to be perfect it's

even if you're trying to be perfect it's the same thing if I go to like a copy

the same thing if I go to like a copy

the same thing if I go to like a copy place I want to make photocopies of

place I want to make photocopies of

place I want to make photocopies of something if I take an actual document

something if I take an actual document

something if I take an actual document like a perfectly clean document I make a

like a perfectly clean document I make a

like a perfectly clean document I make a copy of that document

copy of that document

copy of that document it's going to be not quite perfect it'll

it's going to be not quite perfect it'll

it's going to be not quite perfect it'll look almost similar you probably can't

look almost similar you probably can't

look almost similar you probably can't tell the difference but if I keep making

tell the difference but if I keep making

tell the difference but if I keep making copies of copies of copies of copies

copies of copies of copies of copies

copies of copies of copies of copies maybe by the 50th copy it could look

maybe by the 50th copy it could look

maybe by the 50th copy it could look like a completely different document and

like a completely different document and

like a completely different document and again it's because the more steps that

again it's because the more steps that

again it's because the more steps that you place between the sender and the

you place between the sender and the

you place between the sender and the receiver of a message it's going to

receiver of a message it's going to

receiver of a message it's going to become basically you're gonna lose

become basically you're gonna lose

become basically you're gonna lose you're gonna lose the message it's going

you're gonna lose the message it's going

you're gonna lose the message it's going to change in some way and so it's going

to change in some way and so it's going

to change in some way and so it's going to be more difficult when you try to go

to be more difficult when you try to go

to be more difficult when you try to go back to that step okay so hopefully this

back to that step okay so hopefully this

back to that step okay so hopefully this makes sense and this again what I call a

makes sense and this again what I call a

makes sense and this again what I call a great language learning lie is that

great language learning lie is that

great language learning lie is that there is such a thing as a second

there is such a thing as a second

there is such a thing as a second language so we need a system like this

language so we need a system like this

language so we need a system like this that actually teaches languages we need

that actually teaches languages we need

that actually teaches languages we need like okay there's a second language

like okay there's a second language

like okay there's a second language learning system now what I do and here's

learning system now what I do and here's

learning system now what I do and here's why this like this belief is false

why this like this belief is false

why this like this belief is false basically that you won't really have to

basically that you won't really have to

basically that you won't really have to teach in this way because there's really

teach in this way because there's really

teach in this way because there's really no such thing as a second language the

no such thing as a second language the

no such thing as a second language the idea is that it's really all in how we

idea is that it's really all in how we

idea is that it's really all in how we think about what a second language

think about what a second language

think about what a second language really is and even learning something

really is and even learning something

really is and even learning something like mathematics or you know biology or

like mathematics or you know biology or

like mathematics or you know biology or something like that there's lots of

something like that there's lots of

something like that there's lots of different things like computer code

different things like computer code

different things like computer code where we're learning a different

where we're learning a different

where we're learning a different language but you can understand what

language but you can understand what

language but you can understand what things mean without adding all these

things mean without adding all these

things mean without adding all these different steps into them and it's the

different steps into them and it's the

different steps into them and it's the the removal of these steps that's

the removal of these steps that's

the removal of these steps that's actually what what drives acquisition so

actually what what drives acquisition so

actually what what drives acquisition so what actually helps you develop fluency

what actually helps you develop fluency

what actually helps you develop fluency is removing these steps and connecting

is removing these steps and connecting

is removing these steps and connecting the learner with with the lesson

the learner with with the lesson

the learner with with the lesson directly so this is what I do and I'll

directly so this is what I do and I'll

directly so this is what I do and I'll explain why right now the this idea of a

explain why right now the this idea of a

explain why right now the this idea of a second language is just not really there

second language is just not really there

second language is just not really there so first of all when you're learning

so first of all when you're learning

so first of all when you're learning your native language everybody learns a

your native language everybody learns a

your native language everybody learns a native language like even if you're

native language like even if you're

native language like even if you're maybe trapped in a box for many years

maybe trapped in a box for many years

maybe trapped in a box for many years and then you're you

and then you're you

and then you're you released from that box and you you are

released from that box and you you are

released from that box and you you are grown-up maybe even from 20 years old in

grown-up maybe even from 20 years old in

grown-up maybe even from 20 years old in some kind of community you will learn to

some kind of community you will learn to

some kind of community you will learn to speak the language of that community

speak the language of that community

speak the language of that community naturally and without anybody having to

naturally and without anybody having to

naturally and without anybody having to tell you really grammar rules in a

tell you really grammar rules in a

tell you really grammar rules in a classroom you will naturally develop an

classroom you will naturally develop an

classroom you will naturally develop an ability to understand the language and

ability to understand the language and

ability to understand the language and that would be what people call your

that would be what people call your

that would be what people call your first language so you don't need to

first language so you don't need to

first language so you don't need to learn your first language through a

learn your first language through a

learn your first language through a different language so that's just one

different language so that's just one

different language so that's just one example of how you can learn something

example of how you can learn something

example of how you can learn something directly from the very beginning without

directly from the very beginning without

directly from the very beginning without having something else again here like

having something else again here like

having something else again here like using a second language in order to try

using a second language in order to try

using a second language in order to try to learn you know some other language

to learn you know some other language

to learn you know some other language like that so there's no need for

like that so there's no need for

like that so there's no need for translating or anything like that when

translating or anything like that when

translating or anything like that when you're learning your first language now

you're learning your first language now

you're learning your first language now the same thing is also true for children

the same thing is also true for children

the same thing is also true for children like my daughter who are bilingual so

like my daughter who are bilingual so

like my daughter who are bilingual so they can speak two languages or you can

they can speak two languages or you can

they can speak two languages or you can even have children who speak more

even have children who speak more

even have children who speak more languages than that and all those

languages than that and all those

languages than that and all those children are essentially learning the

children are essentially learning the

children are essentially learning the different languages but each one of them

different languages but each one of them

different languages but each one of them becomes a first language or a native

becomes a first language or a native

becomes a first language or a native language now for most people those two

language now for most people those two

language now for most people those two examples might seem like okay well

examples might seem like okay well

examples might seem like okay well that's obvious those are easy but really

that's obvious those are easy but really

that's obvious those are easy but really the truth is that everyone uses multiple

the truth is that everyone uses multiple

the truth is that everyone uses multiple first languages without thinking about

first languages without thinking about

first languages without thinking about it and just here some very simple

it and just here some very simple

it and just here some very simple examples so I could be speaking one way

examples so I could be speaking one way

examples so I could be speaking one way to my boss if I'm at some kind of work I

to my boss if I'm at some kind of work I

to my boss if I'm at some kind of work I may be speaking a bit more or formally

may be speaking a bit more or formally

may be speaking a bit more or formally even right now this is more of a like a

even right now this is more of a like a

even right now this is more of a like a work situation I'm actually trying to

work situation I'm actually trying to

work situation I'm actually trying to make myself more clearly understood so

make myself more clearly understood so

make myself more clearly understood so I'm communicating in a way that's easier

I'm communicating in a way that's easier

I'm communicating in a way that's easier for people to understand what I'm saying

for people to understand what I'm saying

for people to understand what I'm saying but when I'm sitting with my friends I

but when I'm sitting with my friends I

but when I'm sitting with my friends I communicate in a different way now I

communicate in a different way now I

communicate in a different way now I actually have friends of mine like maybe

actually have friends of mine like maybe

actually have friends of mine like maybe they're like one of their parents is

they're like one of their parents is

they're like one of their parents is from a different country so I might be

from a different country so I might be

from a different country so I might be standing in speaking with one of them

standing in speaking with one of them

standing in speaking with one of them and then they get a phone call from one

and then they get a phone call from one

and then they get a phone call from one of their parents and as soon as they

of their parents and as soon as they

of their parents and as soon as they start speaking they develop an accent

start speaking they develop an accent

start speaking they develop an accent and their words and their vocabulary

and their words and their vocabulary

and their words and their vocabulary even the way that they're speaking

even the way that they're speaking

even the way that they're speaking changes and even the way we speak when

changes and even the way we speak when

changes and even the way we speak when we're communicating with other people

we're communicating with other people

we're communicating with other people maybe at our you know social level or

maybe at our you know social level or

maybe at our you know social level or someone higher or we're communicating

someone higher or we're communicating

someone higher or we're communicating with young children that also changes

with young children that also changes

with young children that also changes now each one of these different things

now each one of these different things

now each one of these different things is a different language but we

is a different language but we

is a different language but we communicate in these things without even

communicate in these things without even

communicate in these things without even thinking about it and so these are

thinking about it and so these are

thinking about it and so these are examples of where I'm thinking about

examples of where I'm thinking about

examples of where I'm thinking about something as not a second language but

something as not a second language but

something as not a second language but really these are all just first

really these are all just first

really these are all just first languages because of how we

languages because of how we

languages because of how we learned that so really the difference

learned that so really the difference

learned that so really the difference between something like maybe me as a as

between something like maybe me as a as

between something like maybe me as a as an English native English speaker from

an English native English speaker from

an English native English speaker from the United States if I want to learn

the United States if I want to learn

the United States if I want to learn German I can actually learn German as a

German I can actually learn German as a

German I can actually learn German as a native person that's learning German as

native person that's learning German as

native person that's learning German as opposed to trying to use this system

opposed to trying to use this system

opposed to trying to use this system here to learn it as a second language it

here to learn it as a second language it

here to learn it as a second language it just depends on the way I'm thinking

just depends on the way I'm thinking

just depends on the way I'm thinking about it and so really the simple

about it and so really the simple

about it and so really the simple solution is to do this you erase all of

solution is to do this you erase all of

solution is to do this you erase all of these different steps and it's not that

these different steps and it's not that

these different steps and it's not that you don't teach grammar or you don't

you don't teach grammar or you don't

you don't teach grammar or you don't help people learn pronunciation or other

help people learn pronunciation or other

help people learn pronunciation or other things like that it's more that you're

things like that it's more that you're

things like that it's more that you're making it really obvious and clear and

making it really obvious and clear and

making it really obvious and clear and easy for people to understand all those

easy for people to understand all those

easy for people to understand all those things by helping them connect directly

things by helping them connect directly

things by helping them connect directly with the language and this is why I call

with the language and this is why I call

with the language and this is why I call it instant language learning so the

it instant language learning so the

it instant language learning so the instant language learner is someone who

instant language learner is someone who

instant language learner is someone who can understand this directly without a

can understand this directly without a

can understand this directly without a teacher having to explain all these

teacher having to explain all these

teacher having to explain all these different things without having to slow

different things without having to slow

different things without having to slow everything down without having to use

everything down without having to use

everything down without having to use translations or teach grammar rules

translations or teach grammar rules

translations or teach grammar rules specifically that will help them learn

specifically that will help them learn

specifically that will help them learn the language again you'll learn

the language again you'll learn

the language again you'll learn vocabulary you will remember things like

vocabulary you will remember things like

vocabulary you will remember things like that but being able to connect

that but being able to connect

that but being able to connect everything and use it automatically the

everything and use it automatically the

everything and use it automatically the only way you get that is through being

only way you get that is through being

only way you get that is through being able to understand things automatically

able to understand things automatically

able to understand things automatically and that's why I call it instant

and that's why I call it instant

and that's why I call it instant language learning so the problem here

language learning so the problem here

language learning so the problem here again we have the great language

again we have the great language

again we have the great language learning lie that you have such a thing

learning lie that you have such a thing

learning lie that you have such a thing as a second language but there really

as a second language but there really

as a second language but there really isn't one it's more that there are two

isn't one it's more that there are two

isn't one it's more that there are two different ways of learning a language

different ways of learning a language

different ways of learning a language and you can apply either of those to any

and you can apply either of those to any

and you can apply either of those to any language you want to learn now the smart

language you want to learn now the smart

language you want to learn now the smart student or especially the smart teacher

student or especially the smart teacher

student or especially the smart teacher and especially for young children is

and especially for young children is

and especially for young children is going to going to use the instant

going to going to use the instant

going to going to use the instant language learning system now this is the

language learning system now this is the

language learning system now this is the way I teach and again I never really had

a good name for it it's just how do I

a good name for it it's just how do I help people learn the language directly

help people learn the language directly

help people learn the language directly without me having to explain things or

without me having to explain things or

without me having to explain things or to do anything like that and that's why

to do anything like that and that's why

to do anything like that and that's why you'll notice all the lessons that I

you'll notice all the lessons that I

you'll notice all the lessons that I have like I could teach you know English

have like I could teach you know English

have like I could teach you know English in Japanese or something I could have

in Japanese or something I could have

in Japanese or something I could have even a youtube channel like that where I

even a youtube channel like that where I

even a youtube channel like that where I focus just specifically on helping

focus just specifically on helping

focus just specifically on helping Japanese speakers but the reason I don't

Japanese speakers but the reason I don't

Japanese speakers but the reason I don't is because if I were to do that I would

is because if I were to do that I would

is because if I were to do that I would help them learn a lot but I'm not going

help them learn a lot but I'm not going

help them learn a lot but I'm not going to help them communicate as well as if I

to help them communicate as well as if I

to help them communicate as well as if I am able to teach like this so the number

am able to teach like this so the number

am able to teach like this so the number one thing you should be doing as a

one thing you should be doing as a

one thing you should be doing as a teacher is everything should be taught

teacher is everything should be taught

teacher is everything should be taught in the language and it

in the language and it

in the language and it you have to explain something in your

you have to explain something in your

you have to explain something in your native language it means that it's too

native language it means that it's too

native language it means that it's too complicated for them you need to take it

complicated for them you need to take it

complicated for them you need to take it down make it much easier for people to

down make it much easier for people to

down make it much easier for people to understand so that they can connect

understand so that they can connect

understand so that they can connect directly with language now you can slow

directly with language now you can slow

directly with language now you can slow it down a little bit the same way that

it down a little bit the same way that

it down a little bit the same way that we help teach you know young children

we help teach you know young children

we help teach you know young children even for my daughter when I began

even for my daughter when I began

even for my daughter when I began teaching her when she was you know I

teaching her when she was you know I

teaching her when she was you know I mean obviously right from birth I began

mean obviously right from birth I began

mean obviously right from birth I began speaking to her but as she gets older

speaking to her but as she gets older

speaking to her but as she gets older now I speak much more quickly to her and

now I speak much more quickly to her and

now I speak much more quickly to her and she can understand what I'm saying and

she can understand what I'm saying and

she can understand what I'm saying and she even herself she uses wanna and

she even herself she uses wanna and

she even herself she uses wanna and gonna and other things like that that I

gonna and other things like that that I

gonna and other things like that that I specifically taught her how to do

specifically taught her how to do

specifically taught her how to do because again I'm giving the same thing

because again I'm giving the same thing

because again I'm giving the same thing of just teaching one thing at a time

of just teaching one thing at a time

of just teaching one thing at a time making it easy I'm not having to

making it easy I'm not having to

making it easy I'm not having to translate anything I'm just showing her

translate anything I'm just showing her

translate anything I'm just showing her things and letting her mind do the work

things and letting her mind do the work

things and letting her mind do the work automatically that it should be doing

automatically that it should be doing

automatically that it should be doing basically we make things really

basically we make things really

basically we make things really difficult for the mind because we're

difficult for the mind because we're

difficult for the mind because we're trying to teach the language the same

trying to teach the language the same

trying to teach the language the same way a computer might learn it when we

way a computer might learn it when we

way a computer might learn it when we don't learn that way we learn by

don't learn that way we learn by

don't learn that way we learn by connecting with things and understanding

connecting with things and understanding

connecting with things and understanding them and this is why we enjoy puzzles we

them and this is why we enjoy puzzles we

them and this is why we enjoy puzzles we get a little bit of information we get a

get a little bit of information we get a

get a little bit of information we get a clue about something and then we see how

clue about something and then we see how

clue about something and then we see how we can put that together and really make

we can put that together and really make

we can put that together and really make it very obvious and easy to understand

it very obvious and easy to understand

it very obvious and easy to understand for our minds so again that's why the

for our minds so again that's why the

for our minds so again that's why the belief is false you don't have to teach

belief is false you don't have to teach

belief is false you don't have to teach it there really is no such thing as a

it there really is no such thing as a second language and right now I'm just

second language and right now I'm just

second language and right now I'm just going to make a very simple lesson using

going to make a very simple lesson using

going to make a very simple lesson using Japanese to help you learn Japanese but

Japanese to help you learn Japanese but

Japanese to help you learn Japanese but again I'm not going to use any English

again I'm not going to use any English

again I'm not going to use any English in this but it's going to be very simple

in this but it's going to be very simple

in this but it's going to be very simple very easy and if you already speak

very easy and if you already speak

very easy and if you already speak Japanese then maybe this will be not the

Japanese then maybe this will be not the

Japanese then maybe this will be not the greatest example for you I have actual a

greatest example for you I have actual a

find I forget the name of it now but

find I forget the name of it now but it's it's basically a presentation where

it's it's basically a presentation where

it's it's basically a presentation where I'm talking about how you should learn a

I'm talking about how you should learn a

I'm talking about how you should learn a second language and I give an example of

second language and I give an example of

second language and I give an example of language learning as an alien would do

language learning as an alien would do

language learning as an alien would do it so when I think about how do I teach

it so when I think about how do I teach

it so when I think about how do I teach something especially for the new app

something especially for the new app

something especially for the new app that we're developing or any of the

that we're developing or any of the

that we're developing or any of the lessons that I develop I try to think

lessons that I develop I try to think

lessons that I develop I try to think how could an alien understand this and

how could an alien understand this and

how could an alien understand this and obviously that's really for very

obviously that's really for very

obviously that's really for very beginners which I'm kind of doing but

beginners which I'm kind of doing but

beginners which I'm kind of doing but you can use instant language learning

you can use instant language learning

you can use instant language learning for every level it's just that you're

for every level it's just that you're

for every level it's just that you're trying to think about how do I make

trying to think about how do I make

trying to think about how do I make something understandable as quickly as

something understandable as quickly as

something understandable as quickly as possible without any steps in between

possible without any steps in between

possible without any steps in between the learner and a lesson so very quickly

the learner and a lesson so very quickly

the learner and a lesson so very quickly just like a quick Japanese lesson salt

just like a quick Japanese lesson salt

just like a quick Japanese lesson salt teach you some Japanese and I'm going to

teach you some Japanese and I'm going to

teach you some Japanese and I'm going to be very slow because maybe this is like

explaining some different things and

explaining some different things and here's why I did it the way I did

here's why I did it the way I did

here's why I did it the way I did now first if I just draw something like

now first if I just draw something like

now first if I just draw something like just looking at one thing by itself it's

just looking at one thing by itself it's

just looking at one thing by itself it's really difficult for the mind to

really difficult for the mind to

really difficult for the mind to understand what exactly the person is

understand what exactly the person is

understand what exactly the person is talking about and this is why we always

talking about and this is why we always

talking about and this is why we always begin when we're teaching something by

begin when we're teaching something by

begin when we're teaching something by contrasting it with something else so we

contrasting it with something else so we

contrasting it with something else so we want to we want to have a contrast I'm

want to we want to have a contrast I'm

want to we want to have a contrast I'm putting some other things with this here

putting some other things with this here

putting some other things with this here okay so this group of things you already

okay so this group of things you already

okay so this group of things you already understand that these are shapes so I

understand that these are shapes so I

understand that these are shapes so I don't need to explain I'm not trying to

don't need to explain I'm not trying to

don't need to explain I'm not trying to say like the word shape but putting them

say like the word shape but putting them

say like the word shape but putting them all together and showing okay there's

all together and showing okay there's

all together and showing okay there's they look similar they're in a group

they look similar they're in a group

they look similar they're in a group together but I can talk about them and

together but I can talk about them and

together but I can talk about them and try to explain what these different

try to explain what these different

try to explain what these different things are so shikaku is Square motto is

things are so shikaku is Square motto is

things are so shikaku is Square motto is circle and sankaku is a triangle and so

circle and sankaku is a triangle and so

circle and sankaku is a triangle and so if I went back and if you listen

if I went back and if you listen

if I went back and if you listen carefully you heard like Shikoku Sochi

carefully you heard like Shikoku Sochi

carefully you heard like Shikoku Sochi meaning four so it's got four angles

meaning four so it's got four angles

meaning four so it's got four angles shikaku motto and some couples so each

shikaku motto and some couples so each

shikaku motto and some couples so each knees some some cuckoo so there are

knees some some cuckoo so there are

knees some some cuckoo so there are three three angles in a triangle so just

three three angles in a triangle so just

three three angles in a triangle so just the same way it is in English a triangle

the same way it is in English a triangle

the same way it is in English a triangle is a sunk up suncook so we have here the

is a sunk up suncook so we have here the

is a sunk up suncook so we have here the same thing we have a blue square and we

same thing we have a blue square and we

same thing we have a blue square and we have a red square so I'm taking the same

have a red square so I'm taking the same

have a red square so I'm taking the same thing where you learned that the name of

thing where you learned that the name of

thing where you learned that the name of the shape is a square and then you

the shape is a square and then you

the shape is a square and then you learned okay the color of it here we

learned okay the color of it here we

learned okay the color of it here we have like a blue square and a red square

have like a blue square and a red square

have like a blue square and a red square so you're learning again like the color

so you're learning again like the color

so you're learning again like the color of something what's different between is

of something what's different between is

of something what's different between is in these examples Blue Square and red

in these examples Blue Square and red

in these examples Blue Square and red squares so Alawis so owl is blue and

squares so Alawis so owl is blue and

squares so Alawis so owl is blue and akka is red but the adjective there

akka is red but the adjective there

akka is red but the adjective there where we're putting that on something

where we're putting that on something

where we're putting that on something else so akka becomes a chi like a chi e

else so akka becomes a chi like a chi e

else so akka becomes a chi like a chi e shikaku or we have like a blue like oh

shikaku or we have like a blue like oh

shikaku or we have like a blue like oh we got goo here so a blue square or a

we got goo here so a blue square or a

we got goo here so a blue square or a Red Square

Red Square

Red Square and then the same thing over here I can

and then the same thing over here I can

and then the same thing over here I can begin by just going back with the color

begin by just going back with the color

begin by just going back with the color or I can talk about the animal you

or I can talk about the animal you

or I can talk about the animal you already know what the animal is but I

already know what the animal is but I

already know what the animal is but I can teach you the name of it in Japanese

can teach you the name of it in Japanese

can teach you the name of it in Japanese and make it more of a puzzle for your

and make it more of a puzzle for your

and make it more of a puzzle for your brain to understand automatically and

brain to understand automatically and

it's that idea this is why we like doing

it's that idea this is why we like doing puzzles because our brain wants to

puzzles because our brain wants to

puzzles because our brain wants to understand that and so if you allow your

understand that and so if you allow your

understand that and so if you allow your brain to understand these things you

brain to understand these things you

brain to understand these things you automatically develop that fluency and

automatically develop that fluency and

automatically develop that fluency and you want to understand something you

you want to understand something you

you want to understand something you feel excited about that and if you

feel excited about that and if you

feel excited about that and if you understood this ah like shit all meaning

but white on the inside but so white white white like an even better lesson

white white like an even better lesson

white white like an even better lesson would have been to make these green or

would have been to make these green or

something like that just to make it even

something like that just to make it even more obvious that that's what I'm

more obvious that that's what I'm

more obvious that that's what I'm talking about but the general idea is

talking about but the general idea is

talking about but the general idea is the same where we're trying to

the same where we're trying to

the same where we're trying to communicate something in the language of

communicate something in the language of

communicate something in the language of origin and in the way that you should be

origin and in the way that you should be

origin and in the way that you should be learning it the same way a child would

learning it the same way a child would

learning it the same way a child would be learning it so there's no such thing

be learning it so there's no such thing

be learning it so there's no such thing as a second language it's just more that

as a second language it's just more that

as a second language it's just more that people are using a system called second

people are using a system called second

people are using a system called second language learning because they think

language learning because they think

language learning because they think there's such a thing as a second

there's such a thing as a second

there's such a thing as a second language now technically or

language now technically or

language now technically or realistically you could learn any

realistically you could learn any

realistically you could learn any language you want using this same system

language you want using this same system

language you want using this same system it's just that basically 99% of people

it's just that basically 99% of people

it's just that basically 99% of people don't offer any system like this because

don't offer any system like this because

don't offer any system like this because they believe this idea that there's such

they believe this idea that there's such

they believe this idea that there's such a thing as a second language and so we

a thing as a second language and so we

a thing as a second language and so we need to have second language learning in

need to have second language learning in

need to have second language learning in order to understand something like that

order to understand something like that

order to understand something like that so this is the tricky thing about

so this is the tricky thing about

so this is the tricky thing about learning and the reason that people have

learning and the reason that people have

learning and the reason that people have so much trouble all of these different

so much trouble all of these different

so much trouble all of these different things up here is again because they
