  • Hey, I know that you want to speak English like a native English speaker.

  • You want to sound like a native English speaker when you speak English.

  • You want to speak English fluently and you've done all that

  • you possibly could have done.

  • You've read books, you've attended classes, but you still

  • have not achieved your goal yet.

  • Well, don't worry.

  • In today's lesson, I am going to tell you five steps.

  • You heard me write five steps that will help you finally speak

  • English like a native English.

  • Are you ready?

  • Well, then I'm teacher Tiffani.

  • Let's jump right in.

  • Step number one, you see my friend?

  • Step number one is you must believe that it is possible.

  • In other words, you must believe that it is possible for you to

  • even speak English fluently.

  • Why is this step number.

  • You see, I have been an English teacher for a long time.

  • I taught English in South Korea for about 10 years, and I noticed there was

  • something very similar between all of my students and probably including you.

  • You see, they had the desire to speak English fluently, but so

  • many times they doubted their.

  • They doubted that they would ever be able to speak English fluently

  • because there were so many rules and so many things they didn't know.

  • And maybe you've experienced the exact same thing, but the fact of the matter

  • is, in order to achieve any goal, including your English fluency goal,

  • you must first believe that it is even.

  • So right now I'm speaking directly to you.

  • I know it's hard.

  • I know that English is not the easiest language to learn, but what I also

  • know, even though I have never met you in person, I know that you are smart.

  • I know that you are smart enough and that your brain has the capacity

  • and the ability to grasp the English language to help you achieve your

  • goal, but you won't achieve this goal.

  • You my friend, first.

  • Believe it.

  • You heard me right?

  • I need you to remind yourself every single day that you are smart enough

  • and that you can achieve this goal.

  • It doesn't matter if it gets hard, you have the ability to achieve this goal.

  • This is step number one, not getting a book, not watching a video, no.

  • Step number one is that.

  • Must believe that it is possible.

  • So what's step number two now?

  • You believe that it's possible.

  • Step number two, you need to observe the English world.

  • In other words, you must observe people speaking English natural.

  • In various situations.

  • Now, why is it so important for you to observe the English world?

  • Step number two, let me explain this so I can speak Korean.

  • I studied Korean when I was living in Korea as a missionary English teacher,

  • and as I was studying, I got many books.

  • I took many classes.

  • You see, like you, I love learning languages.

  • I love studying and learning new things.

  • But at that time I was only using the books that I had been given.

  • I had great teachers, but I had a very good knowledge of book Korean,

  • and when I went to speak Korean, my Korean friends would always tell me,

  • Tiff, you just don't sound natural.

  • You just don't sound like a native Korean speaker.

  • You can speak Korean, but you're really not fluent just yet, and

  • I know you've probably heard the same thing when you speak English.

  • You listen to yourself and you compare yourself to other Native English speakers.

  • You compare yourself possibly to other English learners, and you can't figure out

  • why your English doesn't sound as good as.

  • I've been there.

  • I understand what you're feeling.

  • The reason is I wasn't observing the Korean world, and maybe you are

  • not observing the English world.

  • For example, you need to observe native English speakers.

  • Talking to each other, so not just English lessons.

  • Yes, this lesson is very important and I am happy to be your teacher,

  • but you must also observe native English speakers in the real world.

  • What do they talk about?

  • What words do they use?

  • What expressions do they use instead of just staying within the books?

  • Instead of just learning from the dictionary or looking at things

  • that are written down, you need to observe native English speakers

  • in their natural environments.

  • And because of the internet, you can do that very easily no

  • matter what country you live in.

  • Go online, find a video, watch a movie, watch a drama, but it needs

  • to be with native English speaker.

  • Interacting with each other.

  • You'll be amazed how your English fluency will improve when you

  • start observing the English world.

  • This is so important.

  • Step one, you must believe that it's possible.

  • And step two, you must observe the English world.

  • How do native English speakers speak when they're speaking to each other?

  • Step number three, another important step.

  • You must study what is interesting to you.

  • In other words, you must study the things that almost

  • immediately catch your attention.

  • This is one of my favorite steps.

  • Again, study what is interesting to you.

  • So again, I told you earlier that I have literal.

  • Been teaching English for years.

  • I've taught thousands upon thousands of students in person and millions online,

  • and something that is very common.

  • A common thread is that if you don't study something you're

  • interested in, you will get bored.

  • The students that I have taught over the years, when they go back

  • and study things, if they're not interested in the topic, they'll.

  • They would stop in the past, and even my current students right now that

  • are in my academy, if they're not interested in a topic, they'll get bored.

  • Once you find something that catches your attention, you will naturally

  • want to know more about that thing or that activity or that topic.

  • For example, I love cooking.

  • If you've been with me for a while and you've listened to my story times

  • a, don't worry, I'm gonna tell you a story at the end of this lesson.

  • You've heard me talk a lot about food and how much I enjoy cooking.

  • That's something that interests me.

  • So when I was studying Korean, I naturally got interested

  • whenever I heard someone speaking.

  • Cooking and they were speaking in Korean, or whenever I saw a cooking program

  • and there were Korean chefs discussing different techniques, even though I didn't

  • know all the words or the expressions at the beginning, the topic interested me.

  • So I naturally learned faster when they used a new word.

  • When they used a new expression.

  • Why?

  • Because in my brain, I already had a com.

  • For cooking for food.

  • I was already interested in that topic.

  • The same is true for you, my friend.

  • Listen, I want you to speak English fluently, but in order to speak English

  • fluently, you have to remember step three.

  • You have to study things that interest you.

  • When you watch a video, when you're reading something, if it catches

  • your attention, that's a sign that.

  • I need to dive deeper into this.

  • I need to see some more information, more videos, or read up more

  • on this topic in English.

  • This is the key to help you speak English fluently.

  • Step number three, if something interests you, learn more

  • English related to that topic.

  • Now, after you do this, step number four.

  • Step number four is connected to your life.

  • In other words, you must connect the things you study to things

  • currently happening in your life.

  • I love this.

  • Step two.

  • I know I said I love step three, but I also love this step.

  • Again, connect it to your life.

  • You see, English is a language, but when you think about your brain and

  • the way your brain is, Your brain has different compartments and things

  • trigger other things in your brain.

  • For example, if I see a cup of water immediately in my brain,

  • I'm thinking of drinking the water of uh, I might be thirsty.

  • All of these things are triggered just by seeing that glass of water.

  • There are connections already in my brain that have been

  • connected to this cup of water.

  • You have to do the same thing for everything you learn in English.

  • When you learn a new word, connect it to your life.

  • When you learn a new expression, connect it to your life.

  • When you learn a new concept or idea, figure out how you can connect

  • that concept or idea to your life and you will remember it forever.

  • For example, I said a few moments ago, I was thirsty when I saw the cup of water.

  • Another word for thirsty is parched.

  • good again after me.

  • Parched.

  • Excellent.

  • P A r c h e D.

  • So I just taught you a new word.

  • Pared.

  • Meaning thirsty.

  • So what you have to do right now, connect it to.

  • Think about the last time you were parched, the last time you were thirsty.

  • Think about what you were doing.

  • Why were you parched?

  • Maybe you were playing a sport.

  • Maybe you were exercising at the gym.

  • Think about the last time you were pared.

  • Now you're connecting the word to your life.

  • This is how you'll remember the word.

  • You'll never forget it.

  • You're connecting it to your life, which will help you use it in real

  • life and speak English more fluently.

  • Step number four.

  • Now, step number five is just as important.

  • Step number five, use it immediately.

  • In other words, you must learn.

  • You must learn how to use what you're learning immediately in a conversation.

  • This is something very similar to connecting it to your life.

  • Use it immediate.

  • I just taught you the word parched, right?

  • We connected it to your life the last time you were parched.

  • Now, use it immediately.

  • As soon as this video lesson is over, find someone, your mother,

  • your father, your husband, your wife, your children, your friend.

  • Find someone to teach the word to.

  • Say, Hey, I just watched Teacher Tiffani's video and she taught me this word parched.

  • Have you ever heard it before?

  • They may say no.

  • Ah, let me teach it to you.

  • Pared just really means thirsty and woo.

  • I was parched last week.

  • What happened first in step four?

  • You connected it to your life.

  • Last week you were par.

  • Fifth step five.

  • Now you're using it because you're teaching it to someone.

  • Remember, in order for you to speak English fluently, like a

  • native English speaker, You have to understand how your brain works when

  • you're learning new information.

  • Remember, you have to believe that it's possible.

  • You have to make sure you're learning what interests you.

  • You have to follow these steps in order to speak English fluently.

  • And remember, step five, you must use what you learn immediately.

  • Now, I hope this lesson really helped you.

  • I want you to speak English fluently.

  • Remember, it's not just about what you're learning in the books.

  • It's about how you are accessing that information, putting it

  • into your brain, and using it.

  • Remember step number one, believe that it's possible

  • because I believe it's possible.

  • I'll talk to you next time.

  • Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.

  • Do.

  • , you still there?

  • ? I told you it was coming.

  • You know what time it is?

  • Here we go.

  • It's story time A I said it's story time . All right, so for today's story, I want

  • to tell you about a time when I had.

  • Yes, I've had c v I think two or three times, and this time, this

  • was the first time I had Covid.

  • Now, earlier I mentioned we were talking about things that interest you, right?

  • And I mentioned that I love food and I love cooking.

  • Now, my love for food actually came from my mom.

  • My mom is an excellent.

  • Her food is absolutely delicious.

  • Literally, people eat her food and they wonder what she put in it.

  • They always want her to cook when we go to an event.

  • So I got Covid and at the time I was still living with my parents.

  • I had, I had come back from Korea and I asked them if I could stay with

  • them for a while because I was trying to build this business of, you know,

  • English teacher's business to help.

  • They said, Sure, Tiff, you can stay with us.

  • So I was staying with my parents and unfortunately I got Covid.

  • Now because I had Covid, I had to be quarantined.

  • So I was staying with my parents and I had to stay in my room

  • for a two week period, right?

  • Lockdown.

  • I could not come out the room.

  • Well, that meant my parents had to make every meal for me.

  • I wasn't complaining.

  • Remember I told you my mom is a great.

  • So one day my dad, he was the one in charge of making my meals.

  • So my dad is great, right?

  • He's not as good a cook as my mom is, but he's good.

  • So my dad made my meals and my dad is a military guy.

  • So if I wanted to eat at 8:00 AM 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM my dad would have the

  • food at my door at 7 59, 11 59, and 4 59.

  • Always.

  • So my dad, yes, dependable.

  • I could always count on my dad getting the food to me on.

  • . So the following day, my dad did it the first day and the

  • following day it was my mom's turn.

  • Now I knew, Woo, wait.

  • I knew the food was going to be good.

  • So I told my mom, I said, Hey mommy, I, I'm hungry, so would you mind bringing the

  • food for lunch, my food around 12 o'clock.

  • She said, No problem, baby.

  • She said, What would you like me to make you now?

  • I love anything my mom makes, but I really love the way my mom makes sandwiches.

  • Not just basic sandwiches.

  • My mom adds like six or seven different ingredients to her sandwiches.

  • They're really good.

  • So I mean, when I say my mouth was watering, I was sitting in my room.

  • It was about 1155.

  • Now remember I was used to my dad coming right at 1159.

  • So I said, I'm about to throw down.

  • This food is about to be amazing.

  • So I'm sitting at my desk in my room waiting for the knock to come at the.

  • Look at the clock.

  • 1158.

  • I say, Oh yeah, one more minute.

  • It's coming.

  • It's coming.

  • 1159.

  • I looked at the door.

  • I said, Okay, all right.

  • Maybe she'll come at 12, right?

  • 12 o'clock is when I asked.

  • So 12 o'clock rolled around.

  • Nobody.

  • I said, Okay, you know, maybe she's still cooking downstairs.

  • I can just wait.

  • Right?

  • 1205 and I felt my stomach start to growl.

  • Right.

  • You know when you get hungry, your stomach starts to rumble, right?

  • It was rumbling because I was extremely hungry and I

  • couldn't do anything about it.

  • 1210, look at the door.

  • Is that okay?

  • 1215.

  • 1220.

  • 1225.

  • Now, at this time, I felt like I had lost my sense of reality.

  • I was starving.

  • I couldn't do anything.

  • My mom kept summing.

  • I'm saying, I'm coming dear.

  • Don't worry.

  • And I said, You say you're coming, but you're not coming.

  • 1225 here, a knock on the door.

  • Hey baby.

  • Hey baby.

  • You ready for your meal?

  • Am I ready?

  • No, I didn't say this out loud.

  • I said ye yes.

  • Thank you so much.

  • . So she put it at the door because again, I had covid.

  • They couldn't come in contact with me and she walked away.

  • Now, when I opened the door, remember I was starving when I opened the

  • door and I looked at the plate that my mom had prepared for me.

  • I forgot everything.

  • I forgot the long wait.

  • I forgot everything as the aromas hit my nose and I said, Thank you, Jesus.

  • The wait was long, but woo, the results.

  • Oh my goodness.

  • That sandwich was absolutely amazing.

  • So I called my mom, she was down.

  • I said, Thank you so much for the.

  • , what is the point?

  • What is the lesson?

  • Sometimes , you're gonna have to wait a long time to get the results you're

  • looking for, but if you wait patiently, the results will exceed your expectations.

  • So yes, my dad would come on time, but my mom, even though she was late,

  • that plate of food, I will never.

  • Now, this was just for fun, but I want you as an English learner to remember this.

  • It's taken you a long time or what seems to be a long time

  • to achieve your English goal.

  • I know you want it just like I wanted that plate of food, but be patient.

  • Because you will achieve your goal.

  • Believe that you'll achieve your goal, and when it happens,

  • woohoo, it's gonna be sweet.

  • All right, I will talk to you in the next lesson.

  • I hope you enjoyed this story.

  • Have a wonderful week, and remember to speak English.

Hey, I know that you want to speak English like a native English speaker.
