5410
02:12
taking a break so before you quit learning languages completely you should
26
132250
4170
02:16
just take a day or two off why well there's a good reason why many cultures
27
136420
4530
02:20
rest for one or two days out of the week it's why we go on vacation why we take
28
140950
4200
02:25

02:48
language learning routine part 2 how to update your language learning routine
34
168850
4620
02:53
what do I mean by that I mean do something completely different with your
35
173470
5070
02:58
language learning do something you enjoy and there are two ways you can update
36
178540
3780
03:02
your routine first do something new within the specific skill you're working
37
182320
4980
03:07
on for example if you like reading and want to continue reading change the
38
187300
4650
03:11
resource put down the textbook and try a comic or our easy extensive reading
39
191950
4980
03:16
books on the website the second way is to change it up completely if you're
40
196930
4290
03:21
focusing on grammar stop that and switch over to something else like practicing
41
201220
4170
03:25
your listening with audio lessons or podcasts the point here is you break a
42
205390
4379
03:29
routine you're tired of and you do something else
43
209769
2551
03:32
something you enjoy but you're still learning the language
44
212320
3180
03:35
the result is you don't burn out you have something new to look forward to
45
215500
3900
03:39
and you're still taking action on your language goal so right now you might be
46
219400
5040
03:44
thinking okay I want to break my routine what else can I do
47
224440
3780
03:48
let's get into the third part 21 ways to break your learning routine the key here
48
228220
5519
03:53
is to do something new and fun or at least something that's easy enough so
49
233739
4081
03:57
that you're not overwhelmed and for that you need some new resources and study
50
237820
4470
04:02
tools so here are 21 examples but if you have more approaches leave a comment
51
242290
5730
04:08
these are just suggestions and you need to find out what works for you
52
248020
3830
04:11
okay if you're focusing on vocabulary set small goals learn just five words a
53
251850
6040
04:17
day that's it sign up for our free word of the day
54
257890
3240
04:21
emails you learn one new word a day every day learn words and phrases with
55
261130
4950
04:26
our free vocabulary lists these cover all kinds of topics seasons holidays and
56
266080
5280
04:31
common phrases use spaced repetition flashcards to drill words or if you're
57
271360
5670
04:37
listening to music or watching a show or a youtube video make it a goal to write
58
277030
4380
04:41
down five words you don't know for grammar listen to our audio lessons with
59
281410
5550
04:46
every lesson conversation you'll learn the grammar rules for the lines used in
60
286960
4200
04:51
the conversation it's a lot easier to hear grammar in action than to read
61
291160
4560
04:55
about the rule look up example sentences using that specific grammar rule again
62
295720
5250
05:00
it's better to learn from multiple examples and see the rules in action get
63
300970
4380
05:05
a grammar workbook and drill through the problems for speaking try and talk to
64
305350
4830
05:10
yourself say what you're doing out loud read out loud you can do this with any
65
310180
4920
05:15
reading resource including our lessons shadow which you hear if you've heard
66
315100
5160
05:20
this tactic before there's a good reason why you're hearing about it again
67
320260
3450
05:23
because it works and if you're not doing it you're missing out for listening this
68
323710
4950
05:28
is the easiest skill to practice just watch a YouTube lesson you can also look
69
328660
4590
05:33
up songs and TV show clips listen to our audio lessons on the site immerse
70
333250
5100
05:38
yourself download our dialogue tracks that give you just the conversation in
71
338350
4350
05:42
the language and play them on repeat for writing make it a goal to write one or
72
342700
4650
05:47
two sentences about your day or simply copy out text from elsewhere whether our
73
347350
4860
05:52
lesson or a social media post you saw you can also write down all the new
74
352210
4200
05:56
words you learned today finally for reading it's a bit tough to
75
356410
3810
06:00
find an easier more fun routine but try these read along as you listen to the
76
360220
4950
06:05
audio so you'll need a resource that gives you text and audio the audio will
77
365170
4800
06:09
make it easier for you to follow along you can easily do this with our audio
78
369970
3930
06:13
lessons try kids books or comics in your target language try our extensive

to get you reading fast or find a book about a topic you're interested in or a
81
383169
5461
06:28
book you read before in your native language then try reading it in your
82
388630
3870
06:32
target language again the point is if you feel that you're in a language
83
392500
4199
06:36
learning rut the best thing to do is take a break and then do something new
84
396699
3750
06:40
something easier something that's fun now what's fun is really up to you as a
85
400449

102
488710
5890
08:14
improve in English I think the most important thing is to continue your
103
494600
4379
08:18
studies always continue your studies every day study a little bit so in your
104
498979
4951
08:23
case you said grammar is really tough so I think if you focus on grammar like you
105
503930
5220
08:29
know that grammar is tough for you if you can focus on really studying grammar
106
509150
4379
08:33
a little bit every day slowly over time over weeks and months you'll get used to
107
513529
5491
08:39
it and then you can move on to more like different like a lot of different things
108
519020
4139
08:43
so like vocabulary or you can move on to listening practice and so on so in your
109
523159
5491
08:48
case you already know grammar is tough so start there good luck with your
110
528650
4200
08:52
continued studies and make sure you keep studying every day I think that's super
111
532850
3450
08:56
important thanks for this message okay let's go on to the next one
112
536300
5810
09:03
hello my name is because villain and from India India I've been learning
113
543550
10120
09:13
English for two years and I think I have not gone too far to have gained so much
114
553670
20940
09:34
knowledge about the language I've been watching it in this class or not one
115
574610
10880
09:45
videos since 2018 and I have got a lot of stuff at this site stuck when it
116
585490
20560
10:06
comes to speaking and I have not interacted much with native speakers I'm
117
606050
12060
10:18
looking forward to practice more English with this channel but English class 101
118
618110
14030
10:34
lastly a tank all the stuffs that English class put to YouTube
119
634720
14670
10:50
thank you nice yeah speaking is tough I know many people really struggle with
120
650290
7319
10:57
speaking like it's hard to find a native speaker to practice with so for some
121
657609
5400
11:03
people I know they like to use apps they found like study partners online and
122
663009
5220
11:08
they use an app to practice with a native speaker or someone who has native
123
668229
5850
11:14
speaker level English so maybe that's one thing that you can try to do another
124
674079
4470
11:18
thing you can do is practice shadowing we talked about shadowing a lot on the
125
678549
4890
11:23
channel which means repeating after something after a native speaker so you
126
683439
5040
11:28
can choose a video that I did that I've made or you can choose a video that like
127
688479
6570
11:35
Davy or Michael appears in and you can practice speaking just after them too so
128
695049
5040
11:40
I think those kinds of things can help you to improve your speaking skills and
129
700089
4350
11:44
get used to making the sounds at a faster pace because like in your message
130
704439
3840
11:48
here like your sentences were grammatically correct your vocabulary
131
708279
3480
11:51
choices were nice like you said speaking and you know
132
711759
3060
11:54
speaking smoothly and getting unstuck and feeling like you can communicate
133
714819
3990
11:58
naturally I think in order to do that you have to kind of push yourself to
134
718809
4470
12:03
practice a little bit faster and like using the same words that native
135
723279
3750
12:07
speakers do so try shadowing that's one thing you can do without a partner and
136
727029
5220
12:12
if you can find a partner great I know for many people that isn't possible
137
732249
3390
12:15
finding a partner and making these recordings of yourself speaking that's
138
735639
4350
12:19
another thing that can help you a lot of things thank you very much for this
139
739989
2850
12:22
message very cool okay I'm going to go to the next one
140
742839
5450
