Thanks for watching my video.

Today, I'm gonna be telling you about how to learn new English vocabulary

and use it in everyday conversation.

This is a very important video.

So keep watching.

A lot of my students are studying the TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, or other English tests.

And I understand.

They have to learn a lot of new words in a very short period of time.

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

way to learn English.

The best way - the very best way to learn English is by reading.

Reading anything that you can.

Books in English.

Magazine articles in English.

Even comic books.

Whatever you like - read - and read as much as you can.

This is really going to help you improve your English much more than memorizing long vocabulary

lists.

It just doesn't work.

But, the thing is, how can we use this vocabulary in everyday conversation?

The most important thing to do is as soon as you learn a new vocabulary word or even

a phrase, Use it!

right away!

Make yourself a note or something to help you remember to use that

in conversation.

Even the Using the vocabulary right away is going to

help you memorize it and stick in your brain.

And you know what, you might be afraid that you're gonna use it wrong or incorrectly

That's okay.

If you use it wrong or incorrectly - not a problem,

that's part of the learning process.

And using what you read is going to help you memorize the English words a lot faster.

By actively using new vocabulary every day, you're going to really memorize that

and it's gonna help you become a better English speaker much faster.

Memorizing vocabulary lists is not a good way to learn English.

If you don't use the new words, then you won't master pronunciation and you might forget

the words.

So remember.

Read it and use it.

Hi, everyone.

I'm Lynn.

Thanks for watching my video.

Today, I'm going to give you some tips that are going to help you improve your English

conversation ability.

Today's tips are about how to ask someone to repeat themselves if you didn't hear,

or understand them, or maybe they're speaking a little bit too fast.

These tips are very important to help you start sounding like a native speaker.

So keep watching.

So sometimes when I'm talking to my students, I know that they don't quite understand

what I am saying.

But, they are a little bit afraid or shy to ask me to slow down.

Or to repeat myself.

Sometimes, I talk too fast.

And I just want to let you know that it's totally okay to ask someone to repeat themselves,

or to speak slower.

This is going to help you sound more like a native speaker.

So actually, there are a lot of phrases in English, that you can use, to help you to

ask someone to repeat themselves, or to speak slower.

I'm going to tell you what they are.

The first one you can say is, “Please say that again.”

Very simple.

And no one will be offended or upset.

They will be happy to repeat themselves one more time.

Trust me.

Another one you can say is just, “Excuse me.”

That means you didn't hear what they said.

And they'll either speak a little bit louder, or a little bit slower to tell you what they

said one more time.

Another one you can use is, “Sorry, I didn't hear that.”

That's another simple phrase to help someone know that you didn't quite hear what they

said.

Another one is, literally, “Please speak slower.”

That's ok to ask.

Don't be shy about it.

You're learning English and everyone will understand.

The next one is, “Sorry, what did you say?”

Or you can even just say, “What did you say?”

Without the 'sorry'.

Both of those are completely fine.

And in a much more casual setting, you can even use, “Pardon me?”

Or simple, “What?”

Even just saying one word, “What?”, is better than letting the moment pass by.

And you not understanding what someone said.

If you ask people to repeat themselves, or to say what they said one more time, that's

going to help you learn English quicker.

And build your confidence a lot more.

So if you follow these tips, you'll be sounding like a native speaker very soon.

So follow them all!

So the next time someone says something you don't understand, now, you know exactly

what to say.

Follow these tips that I gave you, and you'll me on your way to sounding like a native speaker.

Thanks for watching.

See you next time.

Hello all.

I'm Lynn.

Thanks for watching my video.

Today I'm going to help you improve your English conversation ability

by changing you from a shy timid student into a confident talkative student.

This is a very important video so keep watching.

A lot of my students are very shy.

In fact some of them are so shy that they're afraid to try their English at all.

Some of them are even afraid of foreigners.

Now I know speaking in English can seem very scary

and you might be too shy to try but let me tell you, if you never practice

speaking in English, you'll never improve your English.

English is a skill which means you need lots of practice

and lots of practice speaking in order to get better.

Now if you are one of those very shy students, that's okay.

I have some tips for you to help get you speaking in English.

the first tip I'm gonna tell you is Speak to yourself.

maybe the thought of speaking to someone else in English

is so scary that you just can't do it.

Well just start talking to yourself then.

In the mirror or out loud at home.

That is going to help you practice speaking Another tip is - read out loud.

This one is actually very simple.

Take any English text that you want a book or anything

and read it out loud to yourself.

This will help you feel more confident about speaking English.

Another tip that works well is Talking to younger people.

Younger people - you can have conversation with them a little bit easier .

And so, speaking to younger people in English is

also going to help boost your confidence.

Another tip that I tell my students is try to improve your listening first.

Sometimes, students are shy to speak English because

they don't quite understand what they're hearing.

So if you improve your listening a little bit first,

this will encourage you to speak more in English.

Another tip is - start chatting first.

If you start the conversation with someone else first,

then you can decide a topic that's comfortable for you to talk about in English.

And don't be afraid of making mistakes.

Just go for it.

The last tip I'm gonna tell you is - push yourself.

Speaking English can feel uncomfortable and you might feel shy

but if you don't push yourself, you'll never improve.

So I encourage you to speak up and try.

English is not easy.

But you can improve with just a little bit of effort.

Don't be afraid to speak up in English and don't be afraid of foreigners.

I know you guys can do it.

Try hard.

Thanks for watching.

See you next time.

Let me know in the comments how you overcome shyness.

See you.

Hey everybody.

I'm Lynn.

Thanks for watching my video.

Today I'm going to be talking to you about the benefits

of watching movies, TV, and even YouTube videos in English.

This is a really helpful video so keep watching watching.

Watching movies and TV shows in English is a

great way to improve your English speaking ability.

You can improve your listening, your reading,

if you use subtitles, and your speaking

all by watching movies, TV shows or even YouTube videos in English.

Now the most important thing to keep in mind when choosing a movie,

a TV show or a YouTube video is not to choose something too difficult.

Many of my students when they start watching movies or TV shows in English,

they choose something that might be fun to watch,

but it's much too difficult for them to understand.

Then what happens is they feel overwhelmed or frustrated and they just want to give up

on learning English.

so in order to avoid that, choose something that is easy first.

Then after, you feel comfortable, you can move on to something a little bit

more difficult.

When choosing a YouTube video, a good suggestion is to stick to one channel

and keep watching those videos many times until you feel comfortable .

Another good idea is watch the same video a number of times.

Repeat it over and over.

You can watch it with the subtitles in your language,

and then you can watch it with the subtitles in English,

and then you can watch it with no subtitles.

And each time you watch the video, or whatever you choose,

you'll be improving your English speaking ability.

Watching English programs is a great way to improve your English conversation skill.

So watching movies, TV shows, and YouTube videos in English

is going to help improve your English conversation ability.

And when you watch these movies or TV shows, don't be afraid to mimic just what the actor

or actress says.

This will also help you to improve.

I know learning English is hard, but I know you can do it as well.

Thanks for watching.

See you next time.

Tell me what kind of movies, TV shows, and YouTube channels

you like to watch in the comments below.

And don't forget to keep supporting my channel.

See you in the next video.

Hello, again.

I'm Lynn.

Thanks for watching my video.

Today, we're going to be talking about translation programs and apps.

And how they never help you learn English This is a really helpful video, so keep watching.

Translation programs and apps like google translate are good

when you want to get kind of a sense or an idea of some text.

I've used it before when I get a text or an email in another language.

I can just quickly copy and paste it into Google Translate

And find out the general idea of what the person is talking about.

However, using these kinds of translation programs

will not help you improve your English conversation ability.

One way that I can see that's very clear is when my students try to use these translation

programs in their writing or in their presentations, it's very obvious that they simply typed or

wrote something up in their own language and then plugged it

into Google Translate.

It comes out wacky and crazy.

The English does not make sense and it just sounds weird.

So my tip for you is to not rely on these translation programs and apps.

Get away from them as much as you can.

They're good in a hurry when you just want to get a sense of some text,

but they are not good for improving your English conversation ability.

So stay away from these translation programs as much as you can.

They are not going to help you improve your English conversation skills.

I always know which of my students has used a translation program or app.

It might seem tempting because it's quick and easy but the English is not good.

And a teacher always knows which students have used
