How to Achieve your Goals and Be a Fluent English Speaker (with Gabriele Oettingen)

It’s the start of a new year and if you’re  like me, you’ve probably already made some  

New Year’s resolutions. But it can be  quite difficult to figure out the best  

ways to reach your language dreams  when you have no idea where to start.

Well, if you can relate to this in any  way, this lesson is perfect for you!  

Today, we’ll look at clips from our Beyond  Borders talk show where I spoke with the  

incomparable Gabriele Oettingen, creator  of the empirically based WOOP framework  

(Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan). She shared some  practical advice on goal setting. We’ll discuss  

3 of the best ways to improve  your English this year.
