  • Your goal is to speak English fluently, like a native English speaker.

  • In order to speak English fluently, you must think like a native English speaker.

  • And today I am going to help you think and speak in English

  • like a native English speaker.

  • Are you ready?

  • Well, then I'm teacher Tiffani.

  • Let's jump right in.

  • All right.

  • The very first thing you must do is think in English.

  • So if someone asks you a question, what did you eat yesterday?

  • You first need to start off by.

  • Answering the five W's, you know, it, who, what, when, where, and why we are thinking

  • and organizing our thoughts in English.

  • So again, the question is, what did you eat yesterday?

  • So who me, what a burger and fries when last night at around 6 PM,

  • where at red Robin, why my friends wanted to meet up for dinner.

  • Now, what's happening is we're organizing all the bits and pieces of information

  • in our mind so that we can answer the question like a native English speaker.

  • It's very easy to answer the who, what, when, where, and why questions, right?

  • You understand what you did, but after you organize your thoughts,

  • you think in English, the next thing you need to do is actually speak.

  • So how can we organize that information into an actual response?

  • Here's how we do it using the exact information.

  • We looked at to answer the question.

  • Once again, what did you eat yesterday?

  • Here's the response.

  • Last night, my friends hit me up because they wanted to meet for dinner.

  • It was around 6 p.

  • m.

  • So I was actually starving.

  • We decided to meet at Red Robin and I had a burger and fries.

  • Now, everything I just said came from the first step thinking in English.

  • Now, before I go into this a little bit more, I want to

  • explain some of the expressions.

  • Notice I said, hit me up, hit me up.

  • Now this is kind of slang, an expression we use in English.

  • So let me explain to you what this means to hit someone up, right?

  • Here it's slang for contacting someone.

  • For example, I'm recording this lesson for you.

  • I'm teaching you right now, but right after this lesson,

  • I need to hit my friend up.

  • I need to contact my friend in English.

  • We say hit someone up.

  • So in the response, I said last night, my friends.

  • Hit me up.

  • Hey, Tiff.

  • Hey, what's going on?

  • We want to go out to eat.

  • All right.

  • Bet.

  • Sure.

  • I'll be there.

  • My friends hit me up.

  • They contacted me.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • And the last one is starving.

  • I said, I was actually starving, starving right here.

  • It just means to be extremely hungry.

  • You are looking everywhere for food.

  • You're extremely hungry.

  • In English, we say starving.

  • Good job.

  • One more time after me, starving.

  • Excellent.

  • So again, in step number one, we had to organize our thoughts.

  • What did you eat yesterday?

  • We answered the who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Then step number two, the speak step.

  • Now we are able to actually give our response using those

  • five pieces of information.

  • Last night, my friends hit me up because they wanted to meet up for dinner.

  • It was around 6 PM, so I was actually starving.

  • We decided to meet at Red Robin and I had a burger and fries.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why can all be found in this response.

  • And you sound like a native English speaker when you

  • include each of the five W's.

  • You like that, don't you?

  • All right, let's move on to the next one.

  • I want you to see that this applies to any question and any topic.

  • So let's say, for example, someone asks you to tell them about your best friend.

  • Well, we have to start with the five W's who my best friend, Michelle, what?

  • She tells amazing stories when, whenever we hang out, where.

  • In my backyard, why she has the best memory as she knows

  • how to make people laugh.

  • Simple questions answered who, what, when, where, and why now, if you want

  • to organize all of this information to sound like a native English

  • speaker, this is how you would do it.

  • Step two, the speak step.

  • My best friend's name is Michelle.

  • One of her best abilities is her, or one of her best qualities is her

  • ability to tell amazing stories.

  • She has the best memory and she knows how to make people laugh.

  • Whenever we hang out in my backyard, Michelle will start reminiscing about our

  • younger days and go right into a story.

  • Now that was a response that any native English speaker would have given, but

  • look at the foundation of this response.

  • The foundation of this response is simply right here.

  • Oh, we have a little bit of overlap.

  • There we go.

  • The foundation of our response.

  • Let's go and check it out right here.

  • The foundation of our response is just right here.

  • The five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Now I'm going to leave that part in there.

  • It's okay.

  • It happens.

  • So again, remember when you are trying to sound like a native English speaker,

  • you have to first step one, think in English, use the five W's who, what, when,

  • where, and why to organize your thoughts.

  • Once your thoughts are organized, then you can go directly into your response

  • and sound like a native English speaker.

  • Now in this response.

  • You'll notice that there are three things that maybe you've never heard

  • before or maybe you don't understand.

  • So I want to explain them.

  • The first one is hang out, hang out now, hang out.

  • This just means to spend time relaxing or socializing informally.

  • Yeah, I'm just hanging out with my friends.

  • You know, we're relaxing, just talking.

  • We're just spending time together.

  • It's an informal situation.

  • We're relaxing and socializing in English.

  • We say, hang out.

  • So I said.

  • Whenever we hang out right now, the next thing I said was in my backyard backyard.

  • Now a backyard is literally just a yard or area of land behind a house.

  • Or other building typically surrounded by a fence, right?

  • So in America, we have our homes and behind our homes, there's

  • this plot of grass, an area we call that area, a backyard.

  • So I said, we hang out, spend time together, socializing in my

  • backyard, in the area behind my house.

  • Makes sense, right?

  • You're visualizing it.

  • Now, the last thing I said that might've been a little bit tricky was reminisce.

  • Now reminisce, this means to indulge in enjoyable recollection,

  • remembering past events, man.

  • I remember when I was in high school, I'm reminiscing right now.

  • I remember I could eat two sandwiches, two large fries.

  • I could eat a smoothie, a milkshake and not gain any weight.

  • It's true.

  • So I'm reminiscing again, indulging in enjoyable recollection,

  • remembering of past events.

  • Right?

  • So now again, in step number one, we organized our thoughts

  • to answer this question.

  • Can you tell me about your best friend?

  • We use the five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

  • And we have this full response, a response that native English

  • speakers would give in real life.

  • Now, what if you were asked a different question?

  • What about this question?

  • How often do you exercise?

  • Remember, as always, step one, we must organize our thoughts using the five W's.

  • So how often do you exercise?

  • Who?

  • Me.

  • What?

  • Run.

  • And then we're going to answer the when at the crack of dawn, Monday to Friday.

  • Where?

  • On the treadmill at the gym.

  • Why I can clear my mind now, remember the question is, how often do you exercise?

  • But when you start organizing your thoughts again, step number one, using

  • the five W's you start to get more information that will help you answer the

  • question like a native English speaker.

  • So what would the answer look like using the five pieces of information?

  • Here we go.

  • Our response would be like this.

  • I normally exercise Monday through Friday in order to get it in before work.

  • I wake up at the crack of dawn and head to the gym while I'm running on the

  • treadmill, I am able to clear my mind.

  • This is an amazing response.

  • It's not super long, but it includes each and every one of the five W's.

  • All of the information is found in this response.

  • Now, there's some new expressions that I want to explain to you.

  • The first one is get it in.

  • This is a phrasal verb and it can be slang and sometimes as well.

  • So let me explain what this means.

  • Explain what this means.

  • If you get something in, you manage to do it at a time when you are

  • very busy doing other things.

  • You manage to do something.

  • Normally I'm super busy in the morning.

  • Normally I don't have enough time, but I want to get it in before I go to work.

  • Let me kind of squeeze it in right here in this spot.

  • Again, if you get something in, you manage to do it at a time when you

  • are very busy doing other things.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • Okay.

  • The next thing is the crack of dawn.

  • The crack of dawn, this just means a time very early in the morning at

  • daybreak or even before daybreak.

  • Now for me, I am an early bird.

  • I wake up at the crack of dawn every day, normally between 4 or 5 a.

  • m.

  • That's the normal time that I wake up at the crack of dawn.

  • It makes sense, right?

  • Okay.

  • And the next one was clear my mind.

  • I said, I'm able to clear my mind on the treadmill when I'm running on the

  • treadmill to stop worrying or thinking about something, maybe something happened

  • at work, maybe something happened with my family or my friends, or maybe something

  • is going on and it's really causing me a lot of stress when I get on the treadmill.

  • I'm able to clear my mind to stop worrying or thinking about that thing.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • So again, if we look at the response.

  • I normally exercise Monday through Friday.

  • When?

  • In order to get it in before work, I wake up at the crack

  • of dawn and head to the gym.

  • Why?

  • Get it in before work.

  • What do you do?

  • When?

  • Wake up at the crack of dawn.

  • Where do you go?

  • Heading to the gym.

  • While I'm running on the treadmill, I am able to clear my mind.

  • We've answered each of the five W's.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why.

  • So again, if you want to speak English like a native English speaker,

  • just remember to think first using the five W's, who, what, when,

  • where, and why, and then speak.

  • And you'll start sounding like me Here we go.

  • Using the five W's method, who, what, when, where, and why let's

  • look at this situation, think what are the students doing?

  • So we have to use the five W's the first W is.

  • Who we see a group of passionate students, passionate students.

  • What are they doing?

  • They've organized a protest.

  • When did this happen?

  • Or when is it going to happen?

  • When will it happen?

  • We've selected tomorrow.

  • All right.

  • Where is it going to happen in front?

  • Of city hall.

  • And why is it going to happen to demand better funding for education?

  • What are we doing?

  • We are organizing our thoughts.

  • Remember in order to speak English fluently, you must organize your

  • thoughts in English using the five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

  • So step one being think we have thought about this.

  • We have our five W's.

  • How do we turn this into.

  • A fluent English response.

  • Here's how we do it right here.

  • Read it with me.

  • Tomorrow, a group of passionate students will gather in front of city hall.

  • They decided to organize this protest in order to demand

  • better funding for education.

  • This is an issue they believe needs immediate action.

  • Now, what did we just do?

  • We turned the information that we organized our thoughts, who, what,

  • when, where, and why we turned this information that we organized

  • into a fluent English response.

  • It's that simple using the five W's.

  • Now I do want to break down some of these words for you.

  • The first one is passionate.

  • I want you to repeat after me this word, passionate.

  • Good again, after me, passionate, excellent.

  • Now passionate, it just means a strong enthusiasm or desire for something.

  • A strong enthusiasm or desire for something.

  • Remember we said a group of passionate students, they're enthusiastic.

  • They had a strong desire, right?

  • In English, we say passionate.

  • Makes sense.

  • All right.

  • Now the second word was demand.

  • Good again, after me demand.

  • Excellent.

  • Now this word demand just means a strong request or requirement.

  • Yes.

  • A strong request or requirement.

  • Listen again, in our response, we said they decided to organize this protest

  • in order to make a strong request.

  • For better funding for education.

  • Again, they decided to organize this protest in order to demand

  • better funding for education.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right.

  • Demand.

  • Excellent.

  • Very good.

  • So again, we first thought about the information again, the question

  • was, what are the students doing?

  • Who, what, when, where, and why?

  • And it gave us this fluent English response.

  • Now, can we apply this to another situation?

  • What if we were asked this question?

  • Hey, what are your daughter's plans?

  • What are your daughter's plans?

  • Well, once again, we're going to start with who, what, when, where,

  • and why the five W's here we go.

  • Let's check this out again.

  • Well, who are we talking about my daughter and her friends?

  • What planning a road trip when next month, where from California to New York.

  • Why to explore new places and create lasting memories.

  • Look what happened.

  • We have the question and now we've organized our thoughts in English,

  • using the simple five W's method, who, what, when, where, and why.

  • So now with this information that we now have in answer to the question,

  • how do we change this to actually be a fluent English response?

  • So let's go back here.

  • Here we go.

  • My daughter and her friends are planning an outing.

  • Epic road trip from California to New York.

  • Their plan is to leave next month, but they are still in the planning phase.

  • They all want to explore new places and create lasting memories, a great

  • response, a very, very natural and fluent English response, but notice

  • once again, it has each of the five W's who, what, when, where, and

  • why remember when we were thinking about this question, what did we do?

  • We organized the who.

  • What, when, where, and why?

  • So now having this response, now let's go a little bit deeper because there

  • are new words and expressions that I want to make sure you understand.

  • The first one being epic.

  • Good again, after me, I want you to say it epic.

  • Excellent.

  • Now this just means grand and noble in scale, grand, amazing,

  • something really awesome.

  • In English, we say epic.

  • So in the response, my daughter and her friends are planning an epic road trip.

  • Not just a regular one, an epic, awesome, amazing road trip.

  • Makes sense, right?

  • In English, we say epic.

  • What about the next one though?

  • The next word is phase.

  • Good again, after me phase, great job.

  • Now this just means a stage in the development of something

  • once again, a stage in the development of something good.

  • Now, when we made this response and we said it, we said it in this way.

  • Their plan is to leave next month, but they are still in the planning phase.

  • They are still in the planning stage.

  • They're still developing.

  • They're still planning.

  • Makes sense, right?

  • In English, we say phase.

  • And the last one I want to look at is lasting memories.

  • Good again, lasting memories.

  • Great job.

  • Now this just means memories that will remain in the mind for a long period of

  • time, in English, we say lasting memories.

  • For example, I still remember the very first time my mom made banana

  • nut bread and I was four years old.

  • It was good.

  • That's a lasting memory.

  • Something that remains for a long period of time, a memory that

  • remains for a long period of time.

  • Got it.

  • Excellent.

  • All right.

  • So once again, we used the five W's to give our response to this question.

  • And we have a fluent English response, but can we still apply it to another question?

  • Let's say, for example, someone asks you, how is your favorite sports team doing?

  • Hey, how's your favorite sports team doing another question, right?

  • You can always use the five W's.

  • If you want to sound like a native English speaker, just

  • remember the five W's method.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why watch what happens.

  • All right.

  • Who a sports team, what training for a championship game when in two weeks

  • where at their home stadium, why to win the championship and bring pride

  • to their city, we have everything organized in our mind, right?

  • We know each W the information for each W.

  • So how can we turn this into a response?

  • Check this out.

  • My favorite sports team will be in a championship game at their stadium

  • in two weeks, they are training hard for the championship game and

  • pushing themselves to the limit because they want to win this win will

  • actually bring pride to their city.

  • This response, it's amazing again, who, what, when, where, and why each of the

  • five W's can be found in this response.

  • Now I do want to explain some of the words.

  • Look at this first expression, pushing themselves to the limit.

  • I want you to repeat after me pushing oneself to the limit.

  • Excellent.

  • Again, pushing oneself to the limit.

  • Good job.

  • Now this just means to strive to reach one's fullest potential to

  • challenge oneself in order to achieve a desired outcome, challenging

  • yourself, pushing yourself forward.

  • You want to speak English fluently.

  • So you're watching this lesson.

  • You're letting me be your English teacher.

  • You're letting me help you.

  • And you're working hard to achieve that goal.

  • You are pushing yourself.

  • Right?

  • So pushing yourself to the limit means to your fullest potential.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • All right.

  • Now, what about the other one?

  • Right.

  • Good again, pride.

  • Excellent.

  • Now we'll read the response over again, after we go over this word.

  • Now, this just means a feeling of pleasure or satisfaction in oneself.

  • For one's achievements, like, ah, I did that.

  • Yes.

  • I know I'm amazing.

  • We say this is pride, right?

  • So now check out the response, the response again, my favorite sports

  • team will be in a championship game at their home stadium in two weeks.

  • They are training hard for the championship game and pushing themselves

  • to the limit because they want to win.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • And finally, this wind will actually bring pride to their city.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • Excellent.

  • I want you to remember this.

  • No matter what the topic is, no matter what the question is, you can use the

  • simple five W's method, who, what, when, where, and why to answer any question

  • and sound like a native English speaker.

  • Now, this simple method can be applied to any topic.

  • I want us to start with this one right here.

  • Imagine someone asked you, what did your friend do this morning?

  • To be honest, a very simple question, right?

  • Hey, what did your friend do this morning?

  • But in order for you to answer this, like a native English speaker,

  • to give a fluent response in English, you must use the five W's.

  • So let's start with the first one, who let's say your friend's name is.

  • Sarah, what Sarah went to the gym.

  • I'm not going to lie to you this morning.

  • I also went to the gym and I feel rejuvenated.

  • All right, we'll get back to Sarah though.

  • Again, we're answering the who, what, when, where, and why questions.

  • Here we go.

  • What about the, when this morning, where in her neighborhood, why?

  • To stay fit and healthy.

  • Now, at this point, we have answered each of the five W's who Sarah, what

  • went to the gym when this morning, where in her neighborhood, why she

  • wants to stay fit and healthy, very simple pieces of information, right?

  • I'm sure you understood each and every piece of information.

  • So how can we turn this into a fluent English response, a response that any

  • native English speaker would give easily.

  • Here's what it would look like using the five W's we just organized.

  • This morning, Sarah decided to prioritize her health and fitness by

  • heading to the gym in her neighborhood.

  • Now, don't worry.

  • I'm going to teach you the new words as well.

  • Let's continue.

  • She told me that she went because she wants to stay fit and healthy.

  • She understands the importance of exercise for both physical and mental

  • wellbeing, and is committed to making it a regular part of her routine.

  • Each of the five W's is found in this response.

  • When you are able to organize your thoughts.

  • Using the five W's, you will also be able to give a response

  • like a native English speaker.

  • Each piece of information is found in this response.

  • Now I want to quickly break down some of the words and the expressions.

  • First, the word prioritize.

  • Excellent.

  • Again, prioritize.

  • Great job.

  • Now this just means there we go right here to determine the order for

  • dealing with a series of items or tasks according to their relative importance.

  • For example, you might have five tasks to complete today at your job.

  • But, you know, writing the report is the most important one you must finish first.

  • So you are prioritizing again, determining the order for dealing

  • with a series of items or tasks, according to their relative importance.

  • Now I'm teaching you this word.

  • I'm giving you the definition, but don't forget to download

  • the app English with Tiffani.

  • After this lesson, you can go and practice what I am teaching you, the new words,

  • the new expressions, and yes, even what you're seeing as we go through the five W.

  • So don't forget to download the English with Tiffani app.

  • The link is in the description.

  • You'll see for today's lesson.

  • So you can practice what you're learning.

  • All right.

  • Now, what about this next word, this next expression heading.

  • Good again, heading to great job.

  • I said heading to the gym, heading to actually just means moving or

  • traveling towards a particular place.

  • Or direction, Hey, you know that I love Indian food, but I also love Mexican food.

  • And there's a Mexican restaurant, not too far from my office.

  • So around lunchtime, I'm going to head to the Mexican restaurant.

  • I'm going to move towards the restaurant going in that direction.

  • You caught it, right?

  • Excellent.

  • In English, we say heading.

  • To, or head to a certain place or in a certain direction.

  • What about this one though?

  • She wants to stay fit and healthy.

  • What does fit mean?

  • So after me first, repeat after me fit.

  • Excellent.

  • Again, fit.

  • Great job.

  • Last time after me fit.

  • Nice.

  • Now this just means being in good physical condition or health.

  • In English, we say fit being in good physical condition.

  • I was actually just talking to one of my friends.

  • Our families are very close.

  • And I was looking at some pictures of him when he was extremely muscular.

  • He was really.

  • Fit his body.

  • I couldn't honestly see any fat on his body and he was telling me what he

  • went through in order to get so fit.

  • So again, being in good physical condition or health in English, we say fit.

  • Maybe you're fit right now.

  • Here we go next.

  • Well being good again.

  • Well being.

  • Great job.

  • Now this just means the state of being comfortable, healthy, and happy.

  • Well being mentally, physically, you feel good.

  • I think I right now have a good feeling.

  • I'm experiencing a good vibes.

  • I'm experiencing good health.

  • You can tell I'm trying to show you right.

  • Hey.

  • Mentally healthy, physically healthy.

  • Again, like she said for both physical and mental well being, that's why

  • she exercises, that's also one of the reasons why I exercise, it

  • really helps your mental wellbeing.

  • You got it.

  • Excellent.

  • So again, we see, we use the five W's.

  • To give this response and answer to the question, what

  • did your friend do this morning?

  • And you see, we have heading to prioritize fit and wellbeing,

  • new words and expressions.

  • Don't forget again, in order for you to practice, you must download

  • the app English with Tiffani, right?

  • After this lesson, go to the app and practice what I am teaching you right now.

  • Okay.

  • The link is right in the description.

  • Now, what if somebody asks you this question, why did Michael buy a new car?

  • Simple question, right?

  • Hey, why did Michael buy a new car?

  • You might say he wanted one.

  • That is a correct answer, but remember, we're trying to get you

  • to speak like a native English speaker to speak English fluently.

  • So what do we need to do?

  • You got it to apply the five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

  • So the question, why did Michael buy a new car?

  • So we have who Michael, what bought a new car?

  • When last week, where at a dealership, why?

  • Because his old car was no longer reliable.

  • So we have each piece of information that we need, who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Very simple pieces of information.

  • I want you to pay attention to the fact that the five W's method is actually

  • very simple, Michael bought a new car last week at a dealership because

  • his old car was no longer reliable.

  • Now, how can we turn this into a response?

  • A fluent English response.

  • Check it out.

  • Here we go.

  • Michael bought a new car last week.

  • From a dealership already starting off good, his old car was no longer reliable.

  • So he decided it was time for an upgrade.

  • Michael is excited about his new purchase and feels more confident knowing he

  • has a reliable means of transportation.

  • That is an amazing response.

  • Again, using the five W's that we organized and you understand them.

  • This is how you are able to give a fluent English response when you use the five Ws.

  • Very simple, but it creates a very good response.

  • Now in this response, just like last time, you'll see that there

  • is a new word and a new expression.

  • The word is reliable.

  • Good again, after me reliable.

  • Excellent.

  • Last time after me, reliable, great job.

  • Now this just means consistently good in quality or performance able to be trusted.

  • Makes sense.

  • Now I'm going to use an example and I hope you agree with me.

  • I think I am a reliable English teacher.

  • I think my YouTube channel speak English with Tiffani is

  • a reliable YouTube channel.

  • Why?

  • Because each week, every Sunday, I consistently upload an English lesson.

  • I hope the quality meets your standards.

  • I hope you enjoy the lessons.

  • I think my channel is a reliable English channel.

  • Do you agree?

  • You can answer.

  • I can hear you.

  • Thank you very much.

  • So you understand the term reliable, right?

  • Again, in the response, his old car was no longer reliable.

  • You got it.

  • Excellent.

  • All right, here we go.

  • The next one is means of transportation.

  • Good again, means of transportation.

  • Excellent.

  • Last time after me.

  • Means of transportation.

  • Good again, please don't forget to practice when you, after this

  • lesson, go to the app English with Tiffani, because it's important

  • for you to practice this as well.

  • You have some speech practice with this one to pronunciation.

  • All right.

  • It just means a vehicle or mode of travel used to move people or

  • goods from one place to another.

  • We just say means of transportation.

  • My car is my means of transportation.

  • Some people take the bus to work.

  • Some people almost coughed there.

  • Some people take the train means of transportation.

  • And again, in the response at the very end, he feels more confident knowing he

  • has a reliable means of transportation.

  • You got it.

  • Right.

  • Excellent.

  • All right.

  • So now, now that we see how powerful the five W's are, when we go to our

  • last example here, I think you'll already be able to start thinking of

  • your own responses for the five W's.

  • Here's the question.

  • Someone might ask you right here.

  • What did Emily do last night?

  • What did Emily do last night?

  • Now I'm going to give you some information to match each of the five W's.

  • But if you're watching this video lesson, I want you to look at the

  • video and start thinking for yourself.

  • Okay.

  • What could I say now for the who Emily, that's the response.

  • But for the, what I said, watched a movie.

  • You might say she's working on her computer again.

  • I want you to start thinking.

  • This is the first step in the process.

  • Think and then speak when last night, where.

  • At home.

  • Why?

  • Because it was a new release.

  • She had been looking forward to each of the five W's has been answered.

  • No matter what the topic is, no matter what the question is, you can

  • use the five W's to think in English and finally speak English fluently.

  • So using our five W's the information we organized, how can we speak English?

  • Here's the response.

  • Last night, Emily decided to chill at home.

  • She was excited because it was a new release.

  • She had been looking forward to, after watching the movie, she hit

  • me up and told me it was great.

  • You like that, right?

  • You like that for those watching, I had a little acting for you, but you see, we use

  • the five W's who, what, when, where, and why, and we got a fluent English response,

  • Now, even in this response, there are a few words and expressions that I want to

  • explain and make sure you understand the first one is chill up, not new release.

  • Let's go to chill.

  • I'll show you new release.

  • Don't worry.

  • Chill.

  • Good again.

  • Chill.

  • Excellent.

  • Last time after me chill.

  • Great job.

  • Now this just means to relax or take it easy.

  • To hang out in a casual and laid back way.

  • I like to chill in the evenings.

  • I'll lay on my couch, eat my dinner, maybe watch something on YouTube.

  • Maybe talk to a friend.

  • I just want to relax and take it easy.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • In English, we say chill.

  • It's kind of a slang term.

  • All right, next we have now new release.

  • Good again, new release.

  • Excellent.

  • Last time after me, new release.

  • Great job.

  • Now this just means a recently published or released work, such

  • as a book, a movie, or an album.

  • Hey, I heard there's a new release.

  • Do you want to go to the movies with me?

  • Hey, I heard a new movie came out.

  • Do you want to go to the movies with me?

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • Good.

  • In English, we say new release.

  • Finally, the last sentence in the last sentence, hit me up was said, hit me up.

  • Good last time after me, hit me up.

  • Excellent.

  • Now this just means a casual way of asking someone to contact

  • you or get in touch with you.

  • Hey, can you hit me up later?

  • Hey, I'll hit you up tomorrow.

  • Hey, can you call me later?

  • Hey, I'll call you tomorrow.

  • Now, hit me up is also kind of a slang term, so you wouldn't use it in a

  • professional environment, but you can use it with your family and friends.

  • It just means to get in contact with someone, hit me up or hit someone up.

  • Makes sense.

  • Excellent.

  • So again, you see how we can use the five W's to speak English fluently

  • about any topic in answer to any question it can be used and they can

  • change your English speaking ability.

  • Now the lesson is not done.

  • I need you once again to download the English with Tiffani app.

  • If you haven't already.

  • And go to the practice lessons for this one.

  • All right, you're going to practice how to use the words, how to use the expressions

  • and much more from our lesson today.

  • All right.

  • The very first thing we're going to look at is right here.

  • Let's say someone asks you this question.

  • What did he do right now?

  • We are thinking about the question again, we're starting off first and foremost.

  • Thinking in English.

  • So if someone asks you this question, Hey, what did he do?

  • You need to use the five W's method.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why?

  • So who are we speaking about?

  • Let's say his name is John.

  • What did he do?

  • John bought a car.

  • When did he buy the car?

  • Yesterday, now you see what we're doing, right?

  • We're just thinking about the question and picking out very

  • simple pieces of information to answer each of the five W's.

  • Now this information is going to enable you to speak English.

  • So we have who, we have what, and we have when.

  • Where a dealership in the downtown area and why to commute to work.

  • So now we have each of the five W's answered who, what, when, where, and why

  • a simple method to answer the question.

  • What did he do?

  • So how can we take this information and turn it into a response that a

  • native English speaker would give?

  • Let's check out the response, the speak step.

  • Here we go.

  • John made a significant investment yesterday when he bought a car.

  • He purchased the car from a dealership downtown because he is

  • going to start commuting to work.

  • Listen, this right here is a very fluent English response to this question.

  • And all we did was to first think in English using the five W's method.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why, and each piece of information

  • can be found in this response.

  • Thinking in, and then speaking English.

  • Now, there are a few words that I want to explain to you.

  • The first one is significant.

  • Now this word significant, it just means sufficiently great

  • or important to be worthy of.

  • Attention or noteworthy something that's important.

  • Yes, this was a significant accomplishment, something

  • worthy of focusing on.

  • What did we say?

  • He made a significant investment, a car.

  • That's a very important purchase.

  • You're investing a lot of money into a car, thousands of dollars many times.

  • Right?

  • So significant.

  • Now, what about this last word?

  • Commuting.

  • What does that mean?

  • The word is commute.

  • We added I N G, right?

  • But the word is commute and it just means to travel some distance between one's

  • home and place of work on a regular basis.

  • So we saw when we organized our five W's that.

  • This individual, John was purchasing a car.

  • Why?

  • Because he had to commute to work, going from his home to

  • his job on a regular basis.

  • So he needed a car.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • So again, we have the five W's.

  • Organized.

  • We understand who John bought a car.

  • What, when, yesterday, when yesterday, where a dealership in the downtown

  • area and why to commute to work.

  • And we have our response, a perfect response in English.

  • Makes sense, right?

  • You're understanding this pattern and using this method to think

  • in English and then speak, but it doesn't just work for this question.

  • You can use it in every situation.

  • Watch this.

  • Let's say someone asks you this question.

  • What did she do last night?

  • So we have this individual.

  • Who is it?

  • Let's say her name is Sarah.

  • What is she doing?

  • She cooked past tense, a scrumptious dinner.

  • Now don't worry.

  • I will explain the meaning of the word scrumptious.

  • I got you.

  • Don't worry.

  • But right now we're thinking in English, we're organizing our thoughts.

  • So she cooked a scrumptious dinner when.

  • Last night, where at home, why to celebrate her anniversary.

  • You see, when we break it down, thinking in English, using the five W's, it

  • immediately becomes so much easier.

  • So we have the information.

  • Now we need to turn this information into a response that a native

  • English speaker would give.

  • So let's check out the response that includes each of the five W's.

  • Here we go.

  • Last night, Sarah cooked a scrumptious dinner at home for her husband.

  • She decided to cook because she wanted to celebrate their anniversary.

  • Each of the five W's can be found in this response.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why.

  • And if you give this response during an English exam, during a conversation, the

  • person listening to you will be impressed.

  • Why?

  • Because it answers each of the five W's.

  • Now, I promised you that I would explain the word scrumptious.

  • So this word scrumptious, it literally just means when speaking about food.

  • Extremely tasty, very delicious.

  • You've heard me tell you stories during story time about my mom's food.

  • My mom cooks very well.

  • Her food is always scrumptious.

  • You got it again, very tasty and delicious.

  • Make sense, right?

  • Yes.

  • This word is very commonly used.

  • So you see that we can use the five W's to think in English about any topic,

  • about any question, and we finally are able to give a fluent English response.

  • But maybe you're asking.

  • Hey, Tiff, does it really work?

  • I'm going to give you another example, another example, but don't forget

  • again, after this lesson, remember to go to the app English with Tiffani app.

  • The link is right in the description, and this will help you.

  • It will help you actually practice what you're learning.

  • Download the app.

  • The link is in the description and this app will help you practice what you are.

  • Learning weekly English fluency lessons with Tiffani.

  • So you can watch this lesson and then go to the app and you can

  • practice what you're learning.

  • All right.

  • So let's go to the third one to prove again, that this actually works.

  • Here's the situation, Peter.

  • The question is, Hey, where did Peter go?

  • What do we need to do?

  • Yes.

  • To think in English, we need to answer the five W's.

  • So here we go.

  • Who?

  • We know we're talking about Peter.

  • What attended a concert when last weekend, where at the stadium, why?

  • Because he is a huge fan.

  • The band.

  • So we have everything answered for the five W's so simple thinking

  • in English, we're making it easy.

  • English does not have to be difficult.

  • We know who, what, when, where, and why.

  • So now we need to answer the question using the information that we just.

  • Organized.

  • So in order to use this information to organize it, this is what we need to say.

  • Last weekend, Peter attended a concert.

  • The concert was held at the stadium and he had an amazing experience.

  • He had been anticipating the concert for weeks because he is a huge

  • fan of the band that was playing.

  • You liked that response too, didn't you?

  • I loved it.

  • Why?

  • Because we can find each of the five W's in this response.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Now you'll also notice, there are two words that we need to go over.

  • The first one that I want to break down to you is anticipate.

  • We said he had been anticipating the concert for weeks.

  • What does anticipate mean?

  • It just means to expect.

  • Or predict he was expecting the concert.

  • He was looking forward to the concert.

  • Ooh, I can't wait until the concert and anticipate makes sense.

  • Right.

  • Excellent.

  • All right.

  • The second one is actually a combination.

  • So this expression, huge fan now huge just means very big or large,

  • but a huge fan is used to emphasize that you are really a big fan.

  • A really big fan of someone or something.

  • Maybe you're my fan.

  • Maybe you're a huge fan of teacher Tiffani.

  • I hope so.

  • I love helping you, but you see, again, it just emphasizes that you really

  • love someone you really are their fan.

  • In English, we say huge fan.

  • So Peter, a huge fan of the band.

  • So he was anticipating.

  • The concert makes sense, right?

  • So again, we just use the five W's who, what, when, where, and why to think

  • in English and then speak English.

  • The very first thing I want us to look at is this situation right here.

  • Someone has asked you a question.

  • Do you like to travel now, as you were looking at that video, if you're looking

  • at the video lesson, you probably started thinking about a vacation.

  • Maybe you had in the past, or maybe a vacation you want to go on in the future.

  • But how do you answer?

  • This question, simply you use the five W's method.

  • Here we go.

  • The very first thing you need to organize is who, who are we talking about?

  • Me?

  • What love to explore new cultures when during summer vacations,

  • where to exotic destinations, why?

  • Because it broadens my horizons and enriches my life.

  • And I'm going to pause for a second.

  • Right now, we're doing the first step.

  • We're thinking in English.

  • The question is, do you like.

  • Well, if we organize our ideas based on who, what, when, where, and why

  • the five W's, we will actually be able to speak English fluently and

  • you can do the same each and every time someone asks you a question.

  • So we have the information who, what, when, where, and why, but how can we

  • turn this into a fluent English response?

  • Here's what it will sound like.

  • I love to explore new cultures during summer vacations.

  • Usually I traveled to exotic destinations.

  • The experience of immersing myself in unfamiliar customs,

  • traditions, and languages.

  • Broadens my horizons and enriches my life in countless ways.

  • Now you're probably thinking to yourself, well, yes, Tiffani, that's an amazing

  • response, but if you look closely, you'll realize within this response.

  • That's right.

  • I only used the information from the five W's who, what, when, where,

  • and why that we organized in the first step thinking in English.

  • Once again, who, well, we're talking about me, right?

  • I love.

  • What, and we're just using the pieces of information from the first step,

  • love to explore new cultures during summer vacations to exotic destinations,

  • because it broadens my horizons.

  • Now we see that the response is a fluent English response, but you'll

  • also notice within the response that.

  • There's some new words.

  • I want to explain the new words.

  • The very first one is exotic.

  • Good after me again, exotic.

  • Excellent.

  • Now this just means unusual or intriguing often associated with.

  • Foreign or unfamiliar places, cultures, or things.

  • So this is a brand new word for you.

  • Again, I use it like this.

  • Usually I travel to exotic, unfamiliar destinations.

  • You got it.

  • Excellent.

  • Now.

  • And the second one, well, this third sentence I said, immersing.

  • So what does the word immerse mean?

  • Immerse oneself in something.

  • This is the expression using the word.

  • So to immerse oneself in something, it just means to fully.

  • Involve oneself in, or become deeply absorbed in a particular

  • activity, experience, or environment.

  • For example, as your English teacher, I encourage you, even if you don't live in

  • an English speaking country to immerse yourself in English, watch YouTube

  • videos, watch movies, listen to podcasts, immerse yourself, fully involve yourself.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • So again, in the sentence, the experience of immersing myself in unfamiliar

  • customs, traditions, and languages.

  • This brings us to the next expression, broaden one's horizons.

  • Listen, I hope you're taking notes because these are expressions

  • and words that native English speakers use on a regular basis.

  • So yes, I'm helping you think and speak English, but I'm also helping you start

  • to sound like a native English speaker.

  • Here we go.

  • Broaden one's horizons.

  • It means to expand one's knowledge, understanding, or experiences beyond

  • what is familiar or conventional.

  • What is the norm?

  • Often by exploring new perspectives or cultures.

  • For example, prior to going to South Korea, I had only lived in America.

  • I was very familiar with American culture, but when I moved to South Korea,

  • I had to learn about a new culture.

  • I had to understand new customs.

  • My horizons were broadened.

  • I started to understand people even more.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right?

  • All right.

  • Now this is the next expression in rich one's life in rich one's life.

  • This just means to enhance or improve the quality depth or meaningfulness of

  • one's life, often through experiences, relationships, or personal growth.

  • I always say that living in South Korea for such a long time enriched my life.

  • I grew in so many ways, my perspectives, my actions, different habits.

  • It really enriched my life.

  • Makes sense.

  • Excellent.

  • All right.

  • So we see again from this first example, thinking in English and then speaking

  • English, thinking by using the five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Okay.

  • Tiffani.

  • Yes, we were able to answer the question.

  • Do you like to travel using the five W's, but is it really

  • possible to use the five W's?

  • In every situation.

  • Yes.

  • Look at this question right here.

  • Here's the question.

  • Do you and your friends like to travel different situation?

  • We're talking about travel, but now do you and your friends like to travel?

  • How can we use the five W's who, what, when, where, and why to think

  • in English and organize our thoughts?

  • Here we go.

  • Who my friends and I, what enjoy going on road trips when on long weekends, where.

  • To scenic landscapes and national parks.

  • Why?

  • Because it allows us to disconnect from our daily routines and

  • experience the beauty of nature.

  • You see, when you use the five W's who, what, when, where, and

  • why to organize your thoughts, all of a sudden the stress leaves.

  • Why you're not thinking about, Oh, how do I speak fluently?

  • How do I sound like a native speaker?

  • No.

  • You're focused on organizing your thoughts.

  • You're smart.

  • You're intelligent.

  • Yes.

  • I'm talking to you.

  • You're already intelligent.

  • I'm just giving you the tools you need to organize your thoughts

  • and present them in English.

  • So five W's for this question.

  • We have who, what, when, where, and why to answer the question.

  • Do you and your friends.

  • Like to travel, what will this look like?

  • Let's put it all together.

  • My friends and I enjoy going on road trips.

  • We often travel to scenic landscapes and national parks during long weekends.

  • You already recognize the five W's don't you?

  • These adventures allow us to disconnect from our daily routines

  • and experience the beauty.

  • Of nature, my friend, I want you once again, to think about the five W's

  • we organized in step one, all of the information from step one is in our

  • response and that's what makes it a fluent English response, five W's each

  • of the W's are answered in this response.

  • All of the five W's are answered.

  • Each one is seen in this response.

  • But now let's take a step back and learn some of the words.

  • We have some new words in this response that I want to make sure you understand.

  • The first one is scenic.

  • Good again after me, scenic.

  • Excellent.

  • Now this just means beautiful or picturesque, typically referring

  • to natural landscapes, views, or settings that are visually

  • appealing or aesthetically pleasing.

  • I want you to, once again, if you're watching the video.

  • To look at the video in the background, this video of this amazing national park.

  • It's very scenic.

  • This is how we use the word scenic, a picturesque, beautiful, natural landscape.

  • Next, I want you to understand this word, disconnect, disconnect.

  • Now this means to break free, disengage from something often referring to

  • detaching oneself from technology.

  • We have our cell phones.

  • We have our iPads.

  • We have our computers disconnecting, not using them for a period of time.

  • Daily routines can also be disconnected from right.

  • Or distractions in order to relax.

  • To feel rejuvenated or focus on other activities in English, we say disconnect.

  • For example, I've been so busy.

  • I just need to disconnect.

  • If someone says that it means they want to relax and take a break from life, from

  • technology, from work, whatever might be going on in English, we say disconnect.

  • Makes sense.

  • Right.

  • Excellent.

  • All right.

  • So we see that we are able to use the five W's no matter what the question is.

  • Now I want to remind you again, don't forget to download the app

  • English with Tiffani so that you can practice what you're learning.

  • That's the most important thing.

  • Practice after you learn.

  • All right.

  • So download the app totally for free.

  • The link is in the description.

  • Now I want us to look at this question, this question right here.

  • Does he like to travel notice different questions, right?

  • We're focusing now on someone else.

  • Hey, does he like to travel?

  • So now you're going to have to formulate your ideas based on someone else's

  • experience, but we're still going to use the five W's method who, what,

  • when, where, and why, so who, he, what.

  • Seeks adventure and thrills when during school breaks, where to adrenaline

  • pumping destinations like bungee jumping spots and extreme sports centers.

  • Why?

  • Because it gives him an adrenaline rush and makes him feel alive.

  • Again, we're just organizing our thoughts.

  • Who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Now we can speak English because our thoughts are already organized.

  • Let's turn this actually into a fluent English response.

  • Here's the response.

  • He seeks adventure and thrills during school breaks.

  • So he usually travels to adrenaline pumping destinations like bungee jumping

  • spots and extreme sports centers.

  • The rush of adrenaline.

  • Experiences from pushing his limits and engaging in exhilarating

  • activities makes him feel truly alive.

  • This is an amazing response.

  • It sounds like a native English speaker.

  • Why?

  • Because we followed the first step.

  • Organizing our thoughts, who, what, when, where, and why.

  • Now you'll also notice that within this response, there were quite a

  • few new words and new expressions.

  • So let's start with the first one.

  • The first one I want to explain to you is thrill.

  • Good again, thrill.

  • Excellent.

  • Now this just refers to a strong feeling right here.

  • If you're looking at it of excitement, adrenaline, or exhilaration

  • often derived from intense.

  • Or risky activities or experiences, jumping out of a plane, riding a

  • rollercoaster thrill, the fact that your eyes get big, or you feel this

  • rush of adrenaline in your body thrill.

  • Next we have.

  • Adrenaline pumping, adrenaline pumping.

  • Now this just means something that causes a surge of adrenaline, that

  • feeling that comes up inside of you, typically associated with thrilling or

  • high intensity activities that generate excitement and a heightened state

  • of arousal, adrenaline pumping, man.

  • Jumping out of a plane is an adrenaline pumping experience.

  • The adrenaline just seems to pump, you know, when your heart

  • beats fast, adrenaline pumping.

  • Next we have push one's limits.

  • Push one's limits.

  • Now this refers to going beyond one's comfort zone or usual capabilities,

  • challenging oneself to reach new levels of physical, mental, or

  • emotional performance or endurance.

  • You, my friend right now are pushing your limits.

  • You might've felt before this video, man, it's so hard to think in English.

  • It's so hard to speak English fluently, but now as you're

  • understanding using simple.

  • Methods can actually help you speak English fluently.

  • You have this desire to push your limits, to go beyond what you thought

  • you could do, push one's limits.

  • And finally we have exhilarating.

  • Yes.

  • A longer word again, exhilarating.

  • Excellent.

  • It just means producing intense feelings of excitement.

  • Exhilaration, the same word or joy often associated with thrilling

  • or stimulating experiences that make one feel alive and energized.

  • It's exhilarating and adrenaline pumping experience.

  • Make sense.

  • Excellent.

  • All right.

  • So again, you're seeing how just thinking in English, using the five W's who, what,

  • when, where, and why caused you caused us to produce this fluent English response.

  • So my friend, I want you to remember as you're going on your English journey,

  • don't forget to use the five W's who, what, when, where, and why, and

  • I'll talk to you in the next lesson.

  • You still there, you know what time it is.

  • It's story time.

  • Hey, I said, it's story time.

  • Let's do it again.

  • Y'all story time.

  • Hey, I said, story time.

  • I felt like singing it twice today.

  • Here we go.

  • So I want to tell you something that happened with my friend's son.

  • Again, this is when I was in South Korea.

  • And my friend has two children, she has a six month old baby

  • and she has a two year old boy.

  • They're both boys.

  • So the oldest one is two years old.

  • And so every morning, you know, we'd all wake up, we'd talk a little bit.

  • My friend and I would talk a little bit.

  • The boys would kind of play on the floor and then we'd eat breakfast.

  • So in this morning, we ate breakfast and my friend and I

  • decided just to keep talking.

  • So the baby was just kind of in the baby chair, you know, relaxing.

  • And the two year old was kind of just playing in the living room area.

  • And then all of a sudden, the two year old ran to my room.

  • Now, I was okay with him being in my room.

  • I didn't even think anything of it.

  • So my friend and I kept talking.

  • But there's this thing, this thing that we all know when a child

  • gets quiet, something's going on.

  • So my friend and I were talking and two minutes went by three minutes

  • went by five minutes went by and I noticed that he was very quiet.

  • So I said to my friend, one second, let me go check and see what he's doing.

  • So I walked to the room that I was staying in at their apartment.

  • And when I got to the door, I saw the little man sitting at the desk

  • in my room and his back was towards me, but he just seemed so happy.

  • So I called his name and he turned around and his whole face was covered in lotion

  • and his hands were covered in lotion and he had the biggest smile on his

  • face like, Then I looked behind him, my entire computer was covered in lotion.

  • My bag was and my first thought was, let's make sure he didn't eat the lotion.

  • So I called my friends like, Hey, Hey, Hey, come, come.

  • And I was calling her because of him.

  • I was laughing because of the situation.

  • So she thought I was worried about my computer.

  • I was like, no, my computer, I'll fit out.

  • It's fine.

  • I'll wipe that off.

  • Make sure he didn't eat the lotion.

  • So she takes him to the bathroom and make sure he's still smiling and la la land.

  • Just excited.

  • She picks him up, takes him to the bathroom.

  • I look at my desk and I just laughed.

  • I was like, children.

  • Are amazing.

  • They find joy in the simplest things.

  • So I, when I wipe my computer off, wipe my bag off, everything was fine.

  • But throughout the rest of my trip, I would periodically just start

  • laughing, thinking about this little boy turning around as looking at

  • me, hands covered in lotion, face covered in lotion, like, hi auntie.

  • So it's a reminder that sometimes we need to stop.

  • And just enjoy the simple things in life.

  • I don't want you to wrap yourself in lotion, but children find

  • joy in so many simple things.

  • And as adults, sometimes we forget to find joy in the little things.

  • So today I hope just like that little man, you find joy in the

  • simple things in life today.

  • All right.

  • I'll talk to you in the next lesson.
