English language: EASY ways to learn - sharing my secrets!

Hello my dear subscribers!

Today I want to share my tips on learning English language

I know many of you dream of having

a great English language without accent

and this was my dream for many years

I struggled to learn things,

to learn the accent.

Today I want to share my most

effective tips that I used

to learn English language.

Now the first thing

You have to have a very specific goal

like getting into a foreign university

or getting a job

with an English language employer

but I know

on different stages of our life

we don't have these specific goals

The target is

to make learning English your lifestyle.

You can do it by doing many different things

like the first thing you can do

is super easy

is just set your iPhone

or android or whatever phone you're using

to English language

So you'd see all of those English words

every day during your life like

send a message,

watch a video

everything should be in English

Maybe you'd think you know all of those basic words

but really you'd meet so many nuances

you'd remember and it'll stick to your memory

and you'd be able to use them later.

The second thing you need to do is

surround yourself with English

I know this is very difficult.

I'm from Russia and not many people speak English here.

It's not like in Finland

In Finland everybody speaks perfect English.

Finnish people are watching, how do you do it?

That's amazing!

But in Russia not everyone speaks good English.

There are some people but...

It was very difficult to surround myself with English language

But now in the years of media and technology

we have YouTube

And it is the best thing you can do

like switch on a YouTube blogger

who speaks English

and the best thing to do

is maybe select a YouTube blogger

who is coming from your country

because he would still have a slight accent.

I have slight Russian accent.

It would be easier for you to understand him

or her.

It would also motivate you because you would see

the person from the same background.

You'd see him speaking English language

without an accent.

I watch VitalyZDTv

He's from Russia but

he films in English and probably you know him,

he's a prankster

and he does a lot of pranks

he's amazing.

If you're from Russian speaking background, watch his video.

Another thing you can do

All of us have Internet

and you can watch news on the Internet

If you like American English, watch CNN.

You can also read their articles

It's not necessary that you only watch the videos.

For British English watch BBC.

And I know that some people say than news produced by their country

may be biest

like maybe there's propaganda involved.

This is a good motivation

to watch news in English language

you'd get a different view

on what's happening in your country

and what's happening in the world.

For many countries this is a problem.

So do that, just watch news in English.

But make sure that you understand that CNN news

are influenced by American culture.

BBC is influenced by British culture.

Having a video playing on the background

for example, I'm watching English language YouTube vloggers

when I'm washing up

or cooking something.

It's not necessary that I listen to every single word they say

but I have this English language background.

It really helps.

Another thing you can do.

Listen to English language songs.

This is the easiest part.

All of us listen to, I don't know who's the most popular now?

Justin Biber

I know many of you hate him.

Justin Biber, Britney Spears

all of those names.

Pick whoever you like

There's radio one in the United States.

I love the music, I listen to it

every time in the car

and they have the best hits.

You can stream it online

or you can download English language songs to your phone.

Make sure you read the lyrics before you listrn to it.

Listen to it for a couple of times.

Read the lyrics and then go back to the song.

You'll be amazed how many thing you understand.

When you first listen to the song

if it's a n English rap song,

You'd hear

you wouldn't get what they say.

But after you read the lyrics,

those

sounds would make sense.

Would make more sense anyways.

You'd get a couple of words.

Please do that and if you want more details

how to learn English using songs

please use the link below

to see how I do that

and how best language schools over the world do that.

Also remember

that we live in the digital age.

There're so many things you can do online.

like the most basic thing Google translate

When you're translating words from English into your language.

Please make sure you know how this word is pronounced

in English because

memory is not only our brain,

memory is also our eyes,

ears, senses.

When you hear the word as well,

you'd make greater progress

remembering it.

The second thing you can do

when you're googling a word

try to google it in images

there's a special section in Google, called Images

If you google for a word there

you'd get pictures and icons

of that word and that would help you

remember the word.

I also use stickers

like this is one of the best methods you can do

place a sticker to different objects

in your appratement like sofa

lamp, bed.

If you're watching this video, you probably know

all of these basic words

But try your kitchen.

like do you know what buckwheat is?

oatmeal

wholegrain bread

All of those very specific things

you'd need when you come to the States.

or come to Great Britain

you have to know those words.

Use your kitchen as a place where you learn

like I use containers

for grains

I just sign them with the words I need to know

Another thing you can do

our brain is good in remembering things

in space

You can also use the objects in your room

for specific words

and it's not necessary to put a sticker with a word window on window

You can put something like admission

and then your brain would remember that

on window we have something connected with a university.

Admissions

when you put this

weird gear

on your face.

You use it to learn something.

They put you in imaginary room

where you can see the objects or

words placed on different objects.

Use it in real life.

Place diffrent words all over the place.

There're lots of apps you can use

to learn English

Duolinguo is one of the best

which is basically for beginners

There's easy ten

to learn just words

There're lots of youTube bloggers

like me :)

If you like my videos

or other youtube bloggers

who speak English and teach you different sfuff.

When you download all the apps to your iPhone,

make sure you have a screen for all of those apps

So for example my first screen

when I open my phone, I see this.

I see all of the apps I use every day.

My second screen is clear.

I only have the apps I need to use.

they're connected with my work.

You can do the same with your English language apps.

Place them on a separate screen,

make sure it comes second

and have no more than 6.

When you're waiting for somebody,

pick up your phone and

and try using some apps

You'll see your target, empty screen

five or six apps

for English and you'd basically use them

to spend your time waiting.

I get a lot of questions from people

like what books do you recommend

to read

I'd say if your English is intermediate

or pre-Intermediate

try children books.

I read Jacqueline Wilson

the British author,

she writes book for children

age 12-14.

It's really easy to understand them.

The plot is basic.

She uses very easy words.

Please check her.

I leave a couple of books on Kindle.

I'll try and find

for you.

The second thing you can do

is pick up a book written by

a guy who speaks your language

who comes from your culture.

Try to read his books in English.

Translation from your own language would be simplier

and you use concepts you'd understand.

Maybe it'll also work for you.

The best way is to pick a book that

captivates your attention

the one you'd be reading.

whatever happens.

Like for me

this book is Gone girl

This is an absolutely amazing book

I enjoyed reading it and

and then watched a film.

Watch a film first with English subtitles

in English and then read a book.

It's amazing, you'll like it.

It's a bestseller

everybody in the world liked it

you'd also like it.

The most important thing

comes last

you can forget what I've said

I'm just kidding.

Right now will be the most important thing

You have to talk to native speakers.

Try to do it every day.

At least for 5 minutes.

I know an amazing company that does it

My company

linguatrip.com

We help you connect with a person who wants to speak English

he can be located anywhere

in the world.

You need to do

is just click a button

You'd be instantly connected to that person

and you'd be able to speak English to them

and ask "how's he doing today"

"what's he do for living?"

"what does he do during summer holidays?"

Ask him whatever you want.

You can talk to him for 1 minute

or you can talk for 30 minutes.

It's really up to you.

Please try and do that.

Let me know what you think.

It's a really great thing to do.

Also you can hire a skype tutor

who's also a native speaker.

The difference between the person who wants to speak English

and study with a native speaker

I mean the teacher

that the teacher would be explaing your mistakes

and give you some grammar and vocabulary.

The price would be higher

but it's good to have feedback.

because when you're just talking to a person

They wouldn't be correcting you

the goal would be to make sure they understand you.

Try and travel to English speaking countries

try and spend your vacation in places where people speak English

or speak English well like in Finland

Amazing guys

You can go there and they speak English.

All of them.

or Sweden

Swedish people are good at languages.

Great Britain, USA, Canada

Australia, New Zealand

whenever you want to go

Malta

Malta is a small European country

where second native language is English.

Try and go to Malta as well.

The best thing to do is

stay with a host.

Stay in a host family

You can book it by Airbnb

or homestay.com

or you can use linguatrip.com

for booking language courses

in country where language is spoken

and also homestay

we make sure hosts

talk to you

in English.
