I'm here to empower you
to get powerful English
and to be independent learner
I'm just you guys along the way
but I want to show you how to be a better faster smarter stronger englilsh learner on your own
so in this video tip
I'm going to let you know my method I Go Natural English
how to build your vocabulary
to master english vocabulary
because really vocabulary is like Umm
well I say grammar is like the bone of English
and so vocabulary would be the flood
is like the leave on the tree
or the flower on the garden
you need vocabulary in order to express yourself
so it 's really important to build your vocabulary
and we can't just rely on the one thousand words
that you learn in you know in English class
in a middle school
those are often not even helpful
or real word English words
so any way
Ahh I digress
so I wanna tell you the three top tips
for leaning vocabulary
and this are tips that I develop over years
of teaching English
as a second language
and also leaning languages myself
I lean Portuguese Spanish some french some Japanese
and a smarter and other languages
so I have always look for way to learn languages
faster easier and better to be able to communicate in real life
and connect with people like you
so that is my passion that 's what I'm here to do
so let 's start with the top three ways
that you can build your vocabulary English
so the first when I wrote here
Ahh in C R U I can spell a noise acronym CRU
Ahh C for connect
as soon as you learn a new word or I should say
as soon as you read or hear of hear a new word
you need to connected
in your mind with another word that you already know
or could be another idea and could be another sound
it could be anything
it could be a color
it could be an image
something that you already know and a familiar with
so I often use the example for learning Japanese
Umm the word for the bill at the restaurant
it 's in OISO
Ahh there is confuse some way to say but is one way to say
so when I learn this word or I heard it for the first time
I connected it with the idea of an eyes sore
an eyes sore in English is something that hurt your eyes
so I think oh my God when I get the check at the restaurant
and I hurt my eyes to look at it because it's so expensive
It's just idea there are totally silly
they don't have to be completely logical
they just have to be enough to connect
your new word with something that you already know
this is the way that we build connection or pathway
actually physically in our brain
we build nerve pathway
from something we already know to something new
that is how we clear the path in the jungle of our brain in order to make it easier
and faster to remember new word in English
so connect repeat is also very important as soon as you here
or you read a new word
I want you to repeat it to yourself in your brain and out loud
I want you say the word out loud
and I don't mean only once
I want you repeat this word several several time like a hundred times
I'm serious you have to repeat a lot
don't think there are some think wrong with you
If you can't remember a new word after repeat it once because nobody can
I have to repeat probably a hundred times before I remember it
so really It takes work
and I remember when I was six years old and I had spelling test in Elementary school
well how did my father tell me to study for the test he made me sit down and write each spelling word one hundred times
and I hate it but you know what it works
so repeat
tree use it
ok use the new word as soon as you can
as often as you can
doesn't matter if you feel like your over using the word
at first you need to use it in order to test the word out
and you will be able to guess from other people reaction
what are you using the word corectly or not
you have to be a little bit observing here
but use the word
if you have an English speaking friend or colleague
use the new word
if you don't know any one who speak English
well you can always get online and you can find someone online who speak English
but let say that you don't have anyone to speak with in English
It's kind of commend concern that I here
I want you use the word with yourself
stop thinking in your native language and I want you to use
the new word when you speak to yourself
or do you speak in out loud or in your brain
I was just telling my students I'm here in Tokyo working with our group of students
and I said you know what when you thinking to yourself and we all do that we all talk to ourselves
we say Ohh what should I do today
you know stop saying it to yourself in Japanese
stop your brain same say Ahh don't show KANA
or ok we are saying
your Spanish speaker or what ever your languages
stop stop stop and do it in English
what am I going to do today for simple example
so start using a new vocabulary and a new phases with yourself
you have to use it often and repeat and connect
ok and a bonus tip before we finish this quick tip
I want you to read a lot in English
and I want you listen to a lot of English like every day
you need that language coming in
that is how you require you new words
