6
60040
5760
01:05
differences English has different spelling  and grammar rules depending on the
7

9960
01:15
country one example is British and American  English I know this can be confusing for
8
75760
10520
01:26
students the solution ution decide  which version of English you want to  
9
86280
7880
01:34
focus on and learn its specific rules  pay attention to the differences when  
10
94160
7280
01:41
reading or listening to English from different
11
101440
3200
01:44
regions practice writing and  speaking in the version you chose
12
104640
11080
01:55
also familiarize yourself with common  differences to avoid confusion that's  
13
115720
10040
02:05
the solution thank you oh this  is also very common translation
14
125760
8800
02:14
dependence the students often rely too much  on translating from their native language to  
15
134560
10720
02:25
English which can slow down their learning and  cause errors what you have to do in this case  
16
145280
10240
02:35
is try to think in English as much as  possible practice using English English
17
155520
9000
02:44
dictionaries instead of translating surround  yourself with English through media and
18
164520
9360
02:53
conversation the more you immerse yourself  in the language the less you will need to
19
173880
9520
03:03
translate great another common  problem students have is retaining
20
183400
10560
03:13
information the students may find it hard to  retain new information such as vocabulary or  
21
193960
10120
03:24
grammar rules especially if they don't use it  regularly for this regular review and practice are
22
204080
9640
03:33
essential use a spaced repetition  techniques to help remember new
23
213720
9000
03:42
information practice speaking writing  and using new words or rules in different
24
222720
9720
03:52
contexts engaging with the language  frequently helps re fors learning believe
25
232440
10360
04:02
me perfect understanding humor  the students find it difficult to
26
242800
9160
04:11
understand you're totally right humor in English  can be difficult to understand especially if it  
27
251960
10400
04:22
involves warplay cultural references or idioms  the students may not find jokes funny or may  
28
262360
9640
04:32
misinterpret them what you have to do is expose  yourself to English comedy shows movies and  
29
272000
9920
04:41
standup comedians pay attention to the context and  the way jokes are delivered ask native speakers to
30
281920
10200
04:52
explain those jokes you don't understand over  time you will get better at catching the nuances  
31
292120
9880
05:02
of English humor fantastic oh this is also  very common the laning formal and informal
32
302000
9480
05:11
language oh absolutely knowing when to  use formal or informal language can be
33
311480
9480
05:20
confusing using the wrong register  can lead to misunderstandings or seem
34
320960
9000
05:29
inappropriate but what can you do learn  the differences between formal and informal
35
329960
10520
05:40
Expressions practice using formal language  
36
340480
5440
05:45
in professional or academic  settings and inform formal
37
345920
4200
05:50
language with friends or in casual  conversations observing native
38
350120
9640
05:59
speakers and how they switch between registers can  
39
359760
8520
06:08
also help try it all right understanding  fast speech that is one of the biggest
40
368280
11160
06:19
problems for sure native speakers often  talk quickly making it hard for students  
41
379440
10120
06:29
to understand everything fast speech can make  even familiar words seem difficult believe
42
389560
9440
06:39
me what is the solution start with slower  recordings and gradually move to faster  
43
399000
11000
06:50
ones use tools that allow you to slow down the  speech speed here in YouTube you have that option
44
410000
9520
07:02
practice listening to fast speech regularly  and try to pick out keywords and main
45
422320
6600
07:08
ideas over time your ability to understand  fast the speech will improve don't give up  
46
428920
12880
07:21
another common problem is students  phase is remembering irregular verbs
47
441800
7720
07:31
all the irregular verbs irregular verbs don't  follow regular conjugation rules making them  
48
451440
10560
07:42
harder to memorize and use correctly I understand  students frustration I think what you have to  
49
462000
10560
07:52
do is create a list of common irregular  verbs and their forms practice using them  
50
472560
9600
08:02
in sentences and regular exercises flashcards  and repetition can help reinforce your memory  
51
482160
9200
08:11
using irregular verbs in context will help  you remember them better let me tell you that  
52
491360
9400
08:20
in my opinion making a list and memorizing the  verbs while doing sentences is the best option
53
500760
8680
08:31
perfect there is one problem here and  it's very common mastering sentence
54
511200
6480
08:37
variety I know using the same sentences  structures repeatedly can make writing or speaking
55
517680
9800
08:47
boring knowing how to vary sentence  structure can be challenging I know that
56
527480
11960
09:00
learn different ways to start and structure  sentences practice combining short sentences  
57
540560
9960
09:10
and breaking up long ones use  exercises to practice sentence
58
550520
5360
09:15
variety with practice your writing and speaking  will become more interesting and varied seriously
59
555880
13920
09:29
