Never make fun of someone who speaks broken english, it means they know another language.

I think the most important when you learn Languages are the patient and confident. Listen more and more, read day by day and don't feel shying when you have a mistake in writing and speaking. Nobody is perfect.
Thank you for your video!

When I was learning English, I used to watch a video repeatedly for many days. That could help me to have all those words and structures in my long term memory. So pick up a video and then watch it every day for a week. That could be boring but the result is gonna be wonderful.

These are what I've been telling my friends who want to improve their English to do. Especially Step 4, I use it when I learn Japanese, German and Spanish. I literally change everything in my life into the language which I'm learning. Including Computer OS, smart phone OS (having an iPhone is so convenient doing this), and I even switched all my video games' languages settings.

1. Naming objects
2. Simple sentences
3. Conversation with yourself
4. Change everyday thing of your life
5. Track your life in English

Step 4 is a thing I've been doing for a long time. I have every social media in English and I can say I improved a lot by that. I used to watch tiktok and read comments in English. I learn so many new words that I can use in daily conversations

If you want to learn a language efficiently, then you need to give that language life. Every word needs to connect to sounds, images, senses, tastes, and emotions. Every bit of grammar can’t be some kind of abstract grammatical quote, needs to be something that can help you tell your story.

5-Discipline, you have to know before learning a new language
1. Make learning fun.
2. Make lots of mistakes and learn from them.
3. Don’t compare yourself with other learners.
4. Be Patient (Don’t say when I learn the language like a native, make it step by step).
5. Live with this language. Make a suitable method for you, there’re thousands of methods to learn a language choose a fun method.

5-Discipline, you have to practice the language every single day
1. Listen at least for 30 minutes.
2. Read a novel or news or anything you are interested in for 30 minutes.
3. Speak with yourself or a partner if you have, discuss different topics, or talk about what happened in your day before you go to sleep.
4. Learn 5 new words or sentences and repeat them everyday day, and use them in your conversations.
5. Write your personal journal every day

‘’If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his language, that goes to his heart.” Nelson Mandela

Remind yourself about the benefits of learning this language, That will motivate you. Read this quote load every day ‘’Live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as if you were to live forever.’’

Don’t focus on yourself, focus on the result that you want to achieve. English is not an art to be mastered, English is just a tool to use to get results.

As this English is my Second Language because i am Filipino 🇵🇭🇵🇭. for how many years speaking on this language i became more slowly native by native. and i'm grateful when i found out my talent☺️

I've been studying English for 11 years in school, and I don't even remember when I started thinking in English. It just always occured to me as natural.

[eduardoestebanhuaroto]

Hi Rachel. Most of these ideas, I used to do them when I was learning English without even realizing, you know. Like switching the language on my phone (never switched it back and still have it in English since then), talking to myself in my head or writing down American English idioms and collocations from subtitles or downloading movie scripts from movies that I enjoyed watching. In fact, when you really enjoy learning a new language, you eagerly find different ways to practice. And if we add up time to that thing, there's no way that progress cannot occur.
By the way, you look pretty much and sound like a lady who was my boss in NC and who I was lucky to meet at work and inspired me to gain more fluency.
I follow you from a long time ago. The content of your videos is just awesome. Thank you

[Laurel]

6 years so far, I've learned a lot through this lady's teaching. God bless you.

Learning a new language takes dedication and courage. Be kind to those making an effort, regardless of their progress.

I did all of these steps like 3 years ago. I promise you IT WORKED! Now I think in English and I feel more fluent. Another thing I do is to copy phrases from movies or tv shows that helps me to get expressions and then sound more natural in conversations

I’ve been approaching English that way even before watching this video. I’d like to add that it won’t hurt your native language skills, because you practice it everyday anyway.

[muhammadzulfyfauzy]

Talk with yourself, it's really helping me to talk more proper in English. I always talked to myself everyday, whenever i did a thing, like cooking or gardening or walking or listening to music and news, almost everything
