ENGLISH STUDY PLAN | Follow This 7-Day English Study Plan

Hey!

Welcome to this week's English lesson.

Now in this lesson, I am going to give you a seven day English study plan.

Now this plan is going to help you study consistently for a seven day period and

you'll also improve your English fluency.

Now, are you ready?

Well then.

I'm Teacher Tiffani, let's jump right in.

So, what is the goal of this study plan?

The goal is for you to improve your use of English vocabulary,

idioms, and expressions.

But you will also improve your English fluency and learn

more about American culture.

So let's get started with day number one.

And the question is, what is the focus of day number one?

The focus is English vocabulary.

You see your goal for day number one is to master new English vocabulary

words and use them in real life.

You see, you must remember, this is the important point.

You must remember to use the words at least once on this day.

You know many times as an English learner, I mean, you're intelligent.

You learn so much.

You put so much information into your brain and you retain the information

but it's hard to use it sometimes.

And that's simply because you have not put it into practice immediately.

So on this day, day number one, you're going to learn new

vocabulary words but you must use them in real life, on this day.

So let me show you the steps for day number one.

The first step is to find three new English vocabulary words.

Step number two, write the definition of each vocabulary word.

After you've written the definition, you're going to pick three example

sentences for each vocabulary word and write them down.

You wanna make sure you have real examples so that you can be aware

of how native English speakers use each word in real life.

And finally write your own example sentence for each vocabulary word.

So again, you're focusing on three new vocabulary words, finding the

meaning, example sentences and then making your own sentence.

This is how you study on day number one.

Now on day number two, we have a different focus.

You see, day number two, the focus is going to be English expressions.

Now your goal is to master new English expressions and use them in real life.

Again, you're seeing this point being emphasized.

Using what you learn in real life.

Remember to use these expressions at least one time today.

The day that you're studying.

On day two, you need to use each expression at least one time.

So what are the steps you need to follow in order to truly learn these words?

So first, you're going to find three new English expressions.

Step two, write the definition down of the expression.

Then you're going to pick three example sentences for each

expression and write them down.

You're seeing this pattern, right?

And finally, write your own example sentence for each expression.

Remember how important it is to find real example sentences.

Find out how native English speakers use the expression, all

three expressions in real life, and then make your own sentence.

Now I wanna show you this really quickly because this is actually

something that I use in my plan.

Again, you probably already have your copy.

It's free.

365-Day English Study Plan.

This is a full year plan and it's free.

The link is in the description but I wanna show you something really quickly because

it shows you what I'm teaching you today.

I'm actually looking at the plan right now and I'm going to go all the way

down and we're gonna look at day 29 in the plan because it's very similar

to what I'm teaching you right now.

The seven day plan.

Look at what happens on day 29.

The focus is English vocabulary.

Again, day number one for our seven day plan is vocabulary.

But look how it setup.

You have word number one, then you have the meaning and three example

sentences and then your sentence.

Again.

In this plan as well I emphasize how important it is to find the

word, write the meaning, write three example sentences, and

then write your own sentence.

So I just wanted you to see what it looks like in an actual plan.

So we have day number one, vocabulary.

They number two, create expressions.

Now on day number three of our seven day plan.

You are going to focus on English.

Let's see if you can guess.

Good!

English idioms.

Again.

During the seven day period, each day has a different focus because by

the end of the seven day period, your English fluency will have improved.

If you've studied and follow the plan, you'll realize, wait a minute

I can use new words, new expressions, new idioms, and so much more.

So you're going to master new English idioms and use them in real life

and you need to remember to use them on this day, day number three.

So let's look at these steps in order to learn the English idioms.

Step one, find three new English idioms.

And I wanna pause really quickly because you'll notice I used the number three a

lot and that's because it's an excellent number for your brain to be able to learn,

grasp, and then use what it's learning.

If you learn a hundred words in one day, 100 idioms.

Yes, you may learn them but it's almost impossible to use

those 100 idioms the same day.

But three is like a magical number.

You learn them, you practice and you use them immediately on the same day.

So three is a great number.

Now, step number two, write the definition of each idiom.

Then step number three, pick three example sentences.

You see that number three again, right?

And finally, write your own example sentence for each idiom.

So again, day one, day two and day three.

We're focusing on vocabulary, expressions and idioms.

You're building up your word bank.

You're building up your expression bank and your idiom bank.

So that when you start speaking there so many natural words and expressions

you can use to sound more natural.

Now what about day number four.

Now day number four, you're going to focus on English phrasal verbs.

Again, the first part of the seven day period.

You need to put lots of information in.

Lots of information that we use as native English speakers.

And you're gonna try to use these phrasal verbs in real life.

And remember to use them at least once on this day, day number four.

Now again, step number one, find three.

You see that number.

Three new English phrasal verbs.

Don't forget!

Day one is what?

Excellent!

Vocabulary.

Day two?

Excellent!

Expressions.

Day three?

Idioms.

Very good!

And day number four, we are focusing on English phrasal verbs.

Next, you're gonna write the definition of each phrasal verbs.

Remember, you can find these phrasal verbs online.

You can find them in a book.

You want to find three that you don't know already.

Then you're gonna pick example sentences for each phrasal verb and write them down.

And finally, you're gonna write your own example sentence for each phrasal verb.

And again I want to remind you, when you are setting this up, when

you are studying these phrasal verbs, you wanna make sure that your

notebook is setup similar to this.

You have this section right here.

Write the phrasal verb right here.

Then you have the meaning.

Then you have the sentences that you're finding online or in the dictionary.

And then you have your very own sentence.

This is important as you're studying during the seven day period.

Make sure you organize your notes.

Now let's move on to day number five.

Day number five.

Now your focus for day number five is going to be English

sentence creation and fluency.

I'm gonna pause.

You see what happened, right?

The first four days, you're putting in new information.

You have new words, new expressions, new idioms, new phrasal verbs,

and then on day five, you need to start creating sentences.

Listen!

I love this plan.

This simple seven day plan will take your English so far.

You'll go faster.

You'll speak English fluently as you continue follow

these plans that I give you.

So again, this seven day plan, now that we're on day five.

Now it's the sentence creation and fluency.

So your goal is to improve your ability to think creatively in English.

So what you're gonna need to remember is, you have to select

images that are interesting to you.

Don't worry, I'm gonna explain this.

Let me show you.

Let me explain it to you.

So here are the steps you need to follow.

Step number one, you're going to find five interesting images.

Now you can choose images that look interesting to you.

It's totally up to you.

Whichever image you like pick an image that is interesting to you and what you're

gonna do is you're going to find or create five descriptive sentences for each image.

Remember your goal is to describe the images you find.

Again, creative thinking on day number five.

You're gonna then write them down in your journal.

And finally, you're going to try to memorize each sentence and repeat them

as you look at the individual images.

Now I'm gonna show you some photos and I wanna show you how you're gonna

do this as you practice on day five.

So let me share my screen with you right now.

Here we go!

So look at this image I have on my screen right now.

Let's say this is the image I chose because I like technology

and I see someone using a computer.

So, I have to make a sentence to describe this image.

So I can say, "Ah!

The woman is eating some grapes and also some olives."

Or I can say, "The woman is working hard on her computer."

Or I can say, "The woman is wearing an amazing sweater."

You see what's happening, right?

I'm describing the picture and that's the focus on day number five.

Again, following these steps, your goal is to describe the image.

Now let me show you again what it looks like inside of my journal.

So right here, I have again, English sentence creation and fluency but

notice how I've broken it down.

I'm picking five images and then what I'm doing is right here.

Writing five descriptive sentences in my journal.

And I want you to do the exact same thing.

So day number five is starting to create sentences.

You're starting to put into practice what you've been learning.

But what about day number six?

So day number one, vocabulary.

Day number two, expressions.

Number three, idioms.

Number four, English phrasal verbs.

And number five, thinking creatively.

Making new sentences.

Now on day number six, you're gonna have a different focus.

On day number six, you're gonna focus on American culture.

Listen!

This seven day plan is a holistic plan.

You're not just focusing on one thing.

Remember, in order to speak English fluently.

You must study many different things but all connected to English.

All right!

So, today your goal is to learn more about American culture which will help you

understand native English speakers more.

Now you must remember to take notes on the new things that you learn.

This is so important.

So, what are the steps?

Here we go!

Step number one, find a video about a popular location in America.

Somewhere that maybe Americans really love going on a regular basis.

Find a video about that place.

You can go on YouTube and find free videos to find out.

"Hey, this is a location that Americans really enjoy going to."

Step number two, you're going to write notes related to how the

location shows American culture.

This is very important.

Think about this, is a very popular location in Washington,

D.C., the Washington monument.

People love to go there.

They love to sightsee but even Americans go there on a regular basis.

Why is it so important to American culture?

Watch a video about a topic like this.

This is what the focus is going to be on day number six.

So what's gonna happen is you're going to start relaxing toward the end of the week.

You've put a lot of information in for the first part then you've been creative and

now you're learning more in a relaxed way.

"Hey!

Let me learn some more about American culture which will

improve your English fluency."

Now we get to day number seven and day number seven is also a very important

day because it's the day you will review.

You see on this day, you will focus on simply reviewing.

The purpose of this day is for you to allow your brain an opportunity

to process what you learned.

This is an important part of the study plan.

You can't just study every single day without giving your brain

an opportunity to soak up what you've learned without giving your

brain an opportunity to review.

And reviewing is also studying but it's in a different way.

You're not putting more in, you're reviewing what's already inside.

And that's why day number seven is so important.

All right!

I hope you enjoy today's lesson.

I will talk to you next time.

You still there?

You know what time it is?

It's story time.

Hey!

I said it's story time.

All right!

So today's story is actually about, my dad.

So, we talked about in our lesson.

We talked about the seven day English study plan, right?

And you know how much I truly love creating plans for you.

Well that actually came from my dad.

My dad is a planner.

I remember growing up, my dad held a lot of positions at my

church and one of the positions he held was as the men's director.

And my dad would organize.

Every year he'd organize a retreat for the men of the church.

Now these retreats were not small.

My dad would plan activities, he'd plan for people to come and speak

to the men, he'd have all the food arranged, all the transportation.

My dad is very organized but I remember he always had a plan.

He would always be writing things down.

He made sure every I was dotted and every T was crossed so I

got that skill from my dad.

Now, this is a skill that has helped me a lot in my life but I remember one

special type of plan my dad would write.

He would have a plan when he left the house and had to buy something.

And I said my dad would always write things down.

So I remember, when I figured this out.

Now my dad sometimes will be tasked with going to the store

to buy the food for the month.

My mom say, "Honey, I have to work today.

She had to work on the weekends sometimes cause she worked at the

hospital and when that happened, she said, "Honey, I need you to get the

food for the week or for the month."

He said, "It's okay, baby.

No problem."

And I remember my dad would always have a plan for when he left what stores

he was going to go to and he'd write out his plan on a piece of paper.

And on that plan would also be all the food he was going to purchase.

Now my dad does not steer away from a plan.

If it's on his list, if he's made a plan, he's going to do it.

He's going to accomplish what's on that paper.

And I learned at a very young age when I wanted something, it would not get

purchased if it wasn't on my dad's list, if he didn't have a plan for.

So I said, "You know what?

Instead of me asking, why I just write it down myself?"

Because I knew my dad is very methodical.

Everything goes to a certain plan or listing everything is very organized.

I said, "Okay!

So I remember my dad, he had his little paper with his list

and his plan for the day."

He said, "All right baby girl I'm about to head out."

I said, "Okay, daddy."

He said, "I'm going to use the bathroom really quickly."

I said, "No worries.

No worries."

And he put his plan, his little plan with his list and everything on the

table in our kitchen next to the door.

So I watched him walk to the bathroom.

I proceeded to pick up my pen.

I turned the page of his plan and I saw where he had the

food list and I said ice cream.

And I even put the type that I wanted right next to it

then I wrote the next thing.

All right, let me get some of these.

And I wrote it on the list and I put my pen down.

And I sat down like nothing happened as my dad walked out the

bathroom said, "Okay baby girl."

Picked up his plan.

He does not go without a plan or a list and he walked out the door.

Two hours later, my dad arrived home with bags of food and he's unpacking the bags.

And I see him pick up a specific bag and he walked over to our refrigerator.

One side was a freezer and one side was a refrigerator.

And he open the freezer, stuck his hand in the bag and do

you know what he pulled out?

He pulled out my ice cream and he put it in the freezer as if nothing had happened.

He didn't ask who wrote it on the list.

He didn't ask how it got on there because as long as it was

on the list, it got purchased.

And from that day on, I knew if I wanted something, just write on his list.

Now I'm a full grown woman right now but I still do that if I'm at

my parents' home, visiting them and my dad is going somewhere.

I'll just write it on the list and I'll get what I want.

So, again, plans are very helpful.

They help you get what you need to get done but I hope you enjoy today's story.

Maybe you have one of these funny stories with your dad as well.

Again, don't forget to pick up your plan.

It's totally for free.
