Hello, I'm Julian Northbrook from doingenglish.com.

(electronic whooshing)

Let's talk a little about learning English every day.

It's simple, if you wanna get good at English fast,

you need to be putting time and effort into your English

every single day.

Because of the way the brain works

and to do with something in psycholinguistics

we call activation, something I'll talk about in detail

in another video.

We are constantly...

going

in and out

of fluency in a language.

And if you spend, I don't know, an hour, two hours,

three hours just once a week studying

and practising the language, what you'll do is

you'll give yourself a big boost in proficiency.

But then that proficiency

will gradually disappear over time.

So what we need to be doing is constantly bringing that

back up, back up, back up.

Which is why we want to be doing it,

even if only say 10, 15, 20 minutes a day,

we want to be doing it every single day

so that we're keeping the level of activation

in our English up, up, up.

And always going a little bit further,

a little bit further, a little bit further.

You see if you're just doing it once a week

what's gonna happen is you're gonna lose more

during the week than you gained

in that two, three hours of, you know, binge learning

as I like to call it.

Do it daily, every single day.

Just a little bit a day is gonna take you much much further

much faster, than a lot occasionally.

Got it? Good!
