A lot of my students are studying the TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, or other English tests.
6
28990
5930
00:34
And I understand.

But let me tell you something Memorizing vocabulary lists is not a good
9

way to learn English.
10
45839

00:47
The best way - the very best way to learn English is by reading.
11
47729
4750
00:52
Reading anything that you can.
12
52479
4101
00:56
Books in English.
13
56580
1570
00:58
Magazine articles in English.
14
58150
2100
01:00
Even comic books.
15
60250
1290
01:01
Whatever you like - read - and read as much as you can.
16
61540
3970
01:05
This is really going to help you improve your English much more than memorizing long vocabulary
17
65510
5730
01:11
lists.
18
71240
1000
01:12
It just doesn't work.
19
72240
1000
01:13
But, the thing is, how can we use this vocabulary in everyday conversation?
20
73240
8070
01:21
The most important thing to do is as soon as you learn a new vocabulary word or even
21
81310
5810
01:27
a phrase, Use it!
22
87120
1630
01:28
right away!
23
88750
1380
01:30
Make yourself a note or something to help you remember to use that
24
90130
5330
01:35
in conversation.
25
95460
1430
01:36
Even the Using the vocabulary right away is going to
26
96890
5030
01:41
help you memorize it and stick in your brain.
27
101920
3410
01:45
And you know what, you might be afraid that you're gonna use it wrong or incorrectly
28
105330
5560
01:50
That's okay.
29
110890
1630
01:52
If you use it wrong or incorrectly - not a problem,
30
112520
3860
01:56
that's part of the learning process.
31
116380
2010
01:58
And using what you read is going to help you memorize the English words a lot faster.
32
118390
6400
02:04
By actively using new vocabulary every day, you're going to really memorize that
33
124790
6300
02:11
and it's gonna help you become a better English speaker much faster.
34
131090
6190
02:17
Memorizing vocabulary lists is not a good way to learn English.
35
137280
4620
02:21
If you don't use the new words, then you won't master pronunciation and you might forget
36
141900
5599
02:27
the words.
37
147499
1121
02:28
So remember.

Hi, everyone.
44

02:58
I’m Lynn.
45

03:03
Today, I’m going to give you some tips that are going to help you improve your English
47
183239
3991
03:07
conversation ability.
48
187230
1619
03:08
Today’s tips are about how to ask someone to repeat themselves if you didn’t hear,
49
188849
5870
03:14
or understand them, or maybe they’re speaking a little bit too fast.
50
194719
4461
03:19
These tips are very important to help you start sounding like a native speaker.
51
199180
4139
03:23
So keep watching.
52
203319
5361
03:28
So sometimes when I’m talking to my students, I know that they don’t quite understand
53
208680
5619
03:34
what I am saying.
54
214299
1550
03:35
But, they are a little bit afraid or shy to ask me to slow down.
55
215849
5271
03:41
Or to repeat myself.
56
221120
1549
03:42
Sometimes, I talk too fast.
57
222669
2750
03:45
And I just want to let you know that it’s totally okay to ask someone to repeat themselves,
58
225419
6350
03:51
or to speak slower.
59
231769
2150
03:53
This is going to help you sound more like a native speaker.
60
233919
3191
03:57
So actually, there are a lot of phrases in English, that you can use, to help you to
61
237110
6839
04:03
ask someone to repeat themselves, or to speak slower.
62
243949
3770
04:07
I’m going to tell you what they are.
63
247719
2440
04:10
The first one you can say is, “Please say that again.”
64
250159
3910
04:14
Very simple.
65
254069
1390
04:15
And no one will be offended or upset.
66
255459
2271
04:17
They will be happy to repeat themselves one more time.
67
257730
3479
04:21
Trust me.
68
261209
1571
04:22
Another one you can say is just, “Excuse me.”
69
262780
2790
04:25
That means you didn’t hear what they said.
70
265570
3150
04:28
And they’ll either speak a little bit louder, or a little bit slower to tell you what they
71
268720
4189
04:32
said one more time.
72
272909
2221
04:35
Another one you can use is, “Sorry, I didn’t hear that.”
73
275130
3650
04:38
That’s another simple phrase to help someone know that you didn’t quite hear what they
74
278780
4550
04:43
said.
75
283330
1600
04:44
Another one is, literally, “Please speak slower.”
76
284930
3920
04:48
That’s ok to ask.
77
288850
1659
04:50
Don’t be shy about it.
78
290509
1601
04:52
You’re learning English and everyone will understand.
79
292110
4010
04:56
The next one is, “Sorry, what did you say?”
80
296120
2859
04:58
Or you can even just say, “What did you say?”
81
298979
2750
05:01
Without the ‘sorry’.
82
301729
1000
05:02
Both of those are completely fine.
83
302729
2461
05:05
And in a much more casual setting, you can even use, “Pardon me?”
84
305190
4409
05:09
Or simple, “What?”
85
309599
2281
05:11
Even just saying one word, “What?”, is better than letting the moment pass by.
86
311880
5789
05:17
And you not understanding what someone said.
87
317669
3551
05:21
If you ask people to repeat themselves, or to say what they said one more time, that’s
88
321220
5330
05:26
going to help you learn English quicker.
89
326550
3119
05:29

I'm Lynn.
103

06:23
Today I'm going to help you improve your English conversation ability
105
383340
4780
06:28
by changing you from a shy timid student into a confident talkative student.
106
388120
8240
06:36
This is a very important video so keep watching.
107
396360
6380
06:42
A lot of my students are very shy.
108
402740
3549
06:46
In fact some of them are so shy that they're afraid to try their English at all.
109
406289
5761
06:52
Some of them are even afraid of foreigners.
110
412050
4169
06:56
Now I know speaking in English can seem very scary
111
416219
4630
07:00
and you might be too shy to try but let me tell you, if you never practice
112
420849
5350
07:06
speaking in English, you'll never improve your English.
113
426199
4391
07:10
English is a skill which means you need lots of practice
114
430590
3930
07:14
and lots of practice speaking in order to get better.
115
434520
3729
07:18
Now if you are one of those very shy students, that's okay.
116
438249
4661
07:22
I have some tips for you to help get you speaking in English.
117
442910
4659
07:27
the first tip I'm gonna tell you is Speak to yourself.
118
447569
4641
07:32
maybe the thought of speaking to someone else in English
119
452210
3269
07:35
is so scary that you just can't do it.
120
455479
3410
07:38
Well just start talking to yourself then.
121
458889
3090
07:41
In the mirror or out loud at home.
122
461979
2631
07:44
That is going to help you practice speaking Another tip is - read out loud.
123
464610
6510
07:51
This one is actually very simple.
124
471120
2289
07:53
Take any English text that you want a book or anything
125
473409
4530
07:57
and read it out loud to yourself.
126
477939
2771
08:00
This will help you feel more confident about speaking English.
127
480710
4489
08:05
Another tip that works well is Talking to younger people.
128
485199
3500
08:08
Younger people - you can have conversation with them a little bit easier .
129
488699
4750
08:13
And so, speaking to younger people in English is
130
493449
2891
08:16
also going to help boost your confidence.
131
496340
4030
08:20
Another tip that I tell my students is try to improve your listening first.
132
500370
5560
08:25
Sometimes, students are shy to speak English because
133
505930
3959
08:29
they don't quite understand what they're hearing.
134
509889
3481
08:33
So if you improve your listening a little bit first,
135
513370
3590
08:36
this will encourage you to speak more in English.
136
516960
4209
08:41
Another tip is - start chatting first.
137
521169
2471
08:43
If you start the conversation with someone else first,
138
523640
4330
08:47
then you can decide a topic that's comfortable for you to talk about in English.
139
527970
5500
08:53
And don't be afraid of making mistakes.
140
533470
2130
08:55
Just go for it.
141
535600
2360
08:57
The last tip I'm gonna tell you is - push yourself.
142
537960
4310
09:02
Speaking English can feel uncomfortable and you might feel shy
143
542270
4190
09:06
but if you don't push yourself, you'll never improve.
144
546460
4250
09:10
So I encourage you to speak up and try.
145
550710
3370
09:14
English is not easy.
146
554080
2610
09:16
But you can improve with just a little bit of effort.
147
556690
4770
09:21
Don't be afraid to speak up in English and don't be afraid of foreigners.
148
561460
4370
09:25
I know you guys can do it.
149
565830
2250
09:28
Try hard.
150
568080

09:48
Hey everybody.
156
588820
5440
09:54
I'm Lynn.
157
594260
1000
09:55
Thanks for watching my video.
158
595260
1840
09:57
Today I'm going to be talking to you about the benefits
159
597100
4060
10:01
of watching movies, TV, and even YouTube videos in English.
160
601160
4990
10:06
This is a really helpful video so keep watching watching.
161
606150
7820
10:13
Watching movies and TV shows in English is a
162
613970
2760
10:16
great way to improve your English speaking ability.
163
616730
4310
10:21
You can improve your listening, your reading,
164
621040
3790
10:24
if you use subtitles, and your speaking
165
624830
3250
10:28
all by watching movies, TV shows or even YouTube videos in English.
166
628080
5440
10:33
Now the most important thing to keep in mind when choosing a movie,
167
633520
5350
10:38
a TV show or a YouTube video is not to choose something too difficult.
168
638870
7340
10:46
Many of my students when they start watching movies or TV shows in English,
169
646210
5140
10:51
they choose something that might be fun to watch,
170
651350
3630
10:54
but it's much too difficult for them to understand.
171
654980
3590
10:58
Then what happens is they feel overwhelmed or frustrated and they just want to give up
172
658570
6280
11:04
on learning English.
173
664850
2120
11:06
so in order to avoid that, choose something that is easy first.
174
666970
6770
11:13
Then after, you feel comfortable, you can move on to something a little bit
175
673740
4980
11:18
more difficult.
176
678720
1970
11:20
When choosing a YouTube video, a good suggestion is to stick to one channel
177
680690
5290
11:25
and keep watching those videos many times until you feel comfortable .
178
685980
6310
11:32
Another good idea is watch the same video a number of times.
179
692290
5220
11:37
Repeat it over and over.
180
697510
1880
11:39
You can watch it with the subtitles in your language,
181
699390
4110
11:43
and then you can watch it with the subtitles in English,
182
703500
3760
11:47
and then you can watch it with no subtitles.
183
707260
3250
11:50
And each time you watch the video, or whatever you choose,
184
710510
4170
11:54
you'll be improving your English speaking ability.
185
714680
4910
11:59
Watching English programs is a great way to improve your English conversation skill.
186
719590
5850
12:05
So watching movies, TV shows, and YouTube videos in English
187
725440
4790
12:10
is going to help improve your English conversation ability.
188
730230
4430
12:14
And when you watch these movies or TV shows, don't be afraid to mimic just what the actor
189
734660
5750
12:20
or actress says.
190
740410
1200
12:21
This will also help you to improve.
191
741610
3320
12:24
I know learning English is hard, but I know you can do it as well.
192
744930
5040
12:29
Thanks for watching.

Hello, again.

I'm Lynn.

5160
12:58
Thanks for watching my video.
201

12:59
Today, we're going to be talking about translation programs and apps.
202
779960
6110
13:06
And how they never help you learn English This is a really helpful video, so keep watching.
203
786070
10370
13:16
Translation programs and apps like google translate are good
204
796440
3840
13:20
when you want to get kind of a sense or an idea of some text.
205
800280
5240
13:25
I've used it before when I get a text or an email in another language.
206
805520
5280
13:30
I can just quickly copy and paste it into Google Translate
207
810800
3770
13:34
And find out the general idea of what the person is talking about.
208
814570
5870
13:40
However, using these kinds of translation programs
209
820440
3930
13:44
will not help you improve your English conversation ability.
210
824370
5030
13:49
One way that I can see that's very clear is when my students try to use these translation
211
829400
6800
13:56
programs in their writing or in their presentations, it's very obvious that they simply typed or
212
836200
8440
14:04
wrote something up in their own language and then plugged it
213
844640
3510
14:08
into Google Translate.
214
848150
2110
14:10
It comes out wacky and crazy.
215
850260
2170
14:12
The English does not make sense and it just sounds weird.
216
852430
5420
14:17
So my tip for you is to not rely on these translation programs and apps.
217
857850
7090
14:24
Get away from them as much as you can.
218
864940
3350
14:28
They're good in a hurry when you just want to get a sense of some text,
219
868290
5010
14:33
but they are not good for improving your English conversation ability.
220
873300
5050
14:38
So stay away from these translation programs as much as you can.
221
878350
4580
14:42
They are not going to help you improve your English conversation skills.
222
882930
4480
14:47
I always know which of my students has used a translation program or app.
223
887410
6810
14:54
It might seem tempting because it's quick and easy but the English is not good.
224
894220
6010
15:00
And a teacher always knows which students have used
225
900230
3520
15:03
this kind of translation program.
226
903750
3000
15:06
So I believe in you guys if you just try hard and put in the effort.
227
906750
4740
15:11
That is going to help improve your English conversation skills.
228

Today, I'm going to be giving you some tips about English pronunciation.
236
942740
4810
15:47
We're going to be talking about the importance of the phonetic alphabet and why you should
237
947550
4790
15:52
know it.
238
952340
1000
15:53
So keep watching.
239
953340
5280
15:58
Many of my students want to improve their English pronunciation.
240
958620
4140
16:02
And I always tell them if you're really serious about improving English,
241
962760
4790
16:07
pronunciation you have to learn the phonetic alphabet.
242
967550
5120
16:12
Once you learn the phonetic alphabet, you will know every vowel and consonant sound
243
972670
5380
16:18
in English.
244
978050
1320
16:19
And you won't even need a native speaker teacher to tell you how to pronounce a certain word
245
979370
6170
16:25
because you'll already know when you see the word and you know the phonetic alphabet you'll
246
985540
6440
16:31
know exactly how to pronounce it.
247
991980
2330
16:34
And this will help you improve your English pronunciation a lot.
248
994310
5110
16:39
A lot of my students are kind of hesitant to learn the phonetic alphabet.
249
999420
5960
16:45
Maybe they think they have to be better at English first or there's a lot of reasons,
250
1005380
5290
16:50
But I always tell them no learn the phonetic alphabet right away as soon as you can.
251
1010670
6340
16:57
It's going to really help you a lot especially if you're serious about improving
252
1017010
5470
17:02
your English pronunciation.
253
1022480
2270
17:04
This is an essential tool, so go ahead and start learning it right now.
254
1024750
5350
17:10
Let's take a look at an example.
255
1030100
2500
17:12
How do you think you pronounce this word?
256
1032600
5050
17:17
A lot of my students they would say this word is pronounced 'corpse'.
257
1037650
4540
17:22
Makes sense, but no.
258
1042190
3660
17:25
Actually there are some silent letters in this word.
259
1045850
4130
17:29
This word is probably very difficult, but if you know the phonetic alphabet, you already
260
1049980
5890
17:35
know that this word is pronounced 'cor'.
261
1055870
4110
17:39
So you can see just from this example how important it is to learn the phonetic alphabet.
262
1059980
6200
17:46
I'm gonna put some links below to help you learn more about the phonetic alphabet
263
1066180
5570
17:51
and be on your way to improving your English pronunciation.
264

4510
17:56
So study hard.

Here's our tips to sound more like a native speaker.
278
1124640
2510
18:47
And remember, the more you speak, the better you speak.
279
1127150
3710
18:50
And the better you speak, the more confidence you'll have.
280
1130860
1890
18:52
So listen up!
281
1132750
1990
18:54
The first tip I'm going to tell you is: Talk to yourself.
282
1134740
4010
18:58
Now that might sound a little bit strange, but it works.
283
1138750
3220
19:01
Over the years my students have tried these tips,
284
1141970
3180
19:05
and it's really helped them a lot.
285
1145150
2090
19:07
If you have no one to practice your English with,
286
1147240
2280
19:09
you can talk to yourself.
287
1149520
2090
19:11
Talk in the mirror.
288
1151610
1080
19:12
Talk out loud.
289
1152690
1080
19:13
It really will help you improve.
290
1153770
1910
19:15
Another tip I'm going to share with you is: Mimic what you hear in videos, podcasts, movies
291
1155680
6990
19:22
or songs.
292
1162670
1320
19:23
You can actually just repeat what you hear in movies, lines from movies, sing-a-long
293
1163990
6580
19:30
with the songs.
294
1170570
1550
19:32
Anything like that is going to help you improve your English a lot.
295
1172120
4390
19:36
Another tips is: Talk to your friends in English.
296
1176510
2180
19:38
If you have a friend, or a coworker, who is also learning English,
297
1178690
4300
19:42
you can talk to each other.
298
1182990
2180
19:45
It might seem a little awkward, but it's not.
299
1185170
3000
19:48
You can have conversations that are simple, and it will help both of you improve your
300
1188170
3610
19:51
English.
301
1191780
1530
19:53
Another tip is: Talk to foreigners.
302
1193310
2550
19:55
Now this might be one that sounds scary, but really most foreigners are pleasant and
303
1195860
4660
20:00
happy to help.
304
1200520
1290
20:01
So if you see a foreigner, go over
305
1201810
1690
20:03
strike up a conversation.
306
1203500
1280
20:04
It will really help to boost your confidence and to improve your English.
307
1204780
5220
20:10
Another tip is: Skype with people around the world.
308
1210000
3730
20:13
There are a lot of websites and forums that you can go to and meet other people
309
1213730
4290
20:18
from all around the world who are also learning English.
310
1218020
3390
20:21
So you can make a new friends and practice your English at the same time.
311
1221410
5480
20:26
The last tip is: Talk in your English class.
312
1226890
3850
20:30
If you're taking an English class, currently, the best thing you can do is speak up and
313
1230740
4470
20:35
speak up often in your English class.

Hi, everybody.
331
1288720
6830
21:35
I'm Lynn.
332
1295550
1000
21:36
Thanks for watching my video.
333
1296550
1920
21:38
Today we're gonna talk about not worrying about making mistakes in English.
334
1298470
6210
21:44
When you speak English, you might make a mistake.
335
1304680
3930
21:48
That's okay.
336
1308610
1090
21:49
This is a really helpful video, so keep watching.
337
1309700
6680
21:56
A lot of my students are scared to speak English because they're afraid of making a mistake.
338
1316380
7100
22:03
They think their English needs to be perfect before they even try.
339
1323480
4579
22:08
Well, I'm here to tell you that's not true.
340
1328059
3521
22:11
Everyone makes mistakes.
341
1331580
2190
22:13
It's part of the learning process.
342
1333770
2410
22:16
So my tip for you is just try speaking even if your English has a lot of mistakes,
343
1336180
6830
22:23
or you think it sounds broken, that's okay.
344
1343010
4770
22:27
Speaking in English is much better than not speaking at all.
345
1347780
4730
22:32
If you don't try to use your English, then you'll never improve.
346
1352510
4110
22:36
It's much more important and useful to speak English even with some mistakes
347
1356620
6020
22:42
than to not speak at all.
348
1362640
3100
22:45
Everyone makes mistakes when learning English.
349
1365740
2520
22:48
And the person that you're talking to can tell you your mistakes.
350
1368260
4060
22:52
And that helps you to learn and improve.
351
1372320
2790
22:55
So the best thing you can do is just try speaking even if you have a lot of mistakes,
352
1375110
6320
23:01
that's okay.
353
1381430
1780
23:03
Okay, students.
354
1383210
1790
23:05
So speak, speak, and speak some more.
355
1385000
3870
23:08
Just keep trying.
356
1388870
1890
23:10
I know when my students speak English and they make a mistake,
357
1390760
4370
23:15
I don't care.
358
1395130
1160
23:16
In fact, I'm really happy that they're trying their English.
359
1396290
3690
23:19
I know English is hard, but I believe in you guys.
360
1399980
3400
23:23
And I know you can do it.
361
1403380
2140
23:25
Thanks for watching everybody and see you next time.
362
1405520

Hi, I'm Lynn.
363
1415520
8480
23:44
Thanks for watching my video.
364
1424000
2100
23:46
Today I'm going to help you improve your English speaking and pronunciation by
365
1426100
5490
23:51
reading English out loud.
366
1431590
2620
23:54
This is a very helpful video so keep watching.
367
1434210
6900
24:01
You might think that it's hard to practice English
368
1441110
2780
24:03
when there's no one to talk to.
369
1443890
2370
24:06
But there is a really helpful way to practice your English
370
1446260
3840
24:10
even if you're by yourself.
371
1450100
2880
24:12
And it's by reading out loud.
372
1452980
3490
24:16
You can take a book, an article, a poem, even a song
373
1456470
4980
24:21
and not only read it, but read it out loud.
374
1461450
4290
24:25
This is something that will help you not only get new vocabulary,
375
1465740
4460
24:30
but it will greatly improve your pronunciation and your conversation ability.
376
1470200
6030
24:36
This is something that I have instructed many of my students to do and
377
1476230
5900
24:42
Always, if they read out loud every day, I can see a huge improvement in, not only
378
1482130
7230
24:49
their fluency, but their conversation ability and pronunciation.
379
1489360
5000
24:54
And this is something that is very simple to do by yourself.
380
