Hi, I'm Vanessa from SpeakEnglishWithVanessa.com.
2
How can I learn English?
3
I'm a beginner.
4
Help! Let's talk about it.
5
Are you a beginner at English?
6
Wonderful. Do you know someone who would like to begin learning English?
7
Awesome. Usually my English lessons are for intermediate English learners, but today we're going to slow things down and talk about some essentials.
8
First, who is a beginner?
9
Did you learn English in elementary school?
10
And do you want to relearn?
11
Congratulations.
12
You're a beginner.
13
Are you starting to learn English now?
14
Congratulations.
15
You are a beginner.
16
Being a beginner is great because you can see fast progress.
17
One day you knew nothing about English and the next day you know something.
18
Wonderful. It's progress.
19
La donna. Oh, hi, Theo.
20
What are you doing?
21
Tu sei un ragazzo!
22
I'm learning Italian, Theo.
23
Thanks to the sponsor of today's lesson, Duolingo, I'm starting to learn Italian.
24
My great grandmother, Antoinette Manolfi (so Italian!) and my great grandfather came from the south of Italy.
25
So, it's my job to learn Italian, right?
26
Even though I'm really busy with my family and my job, I can find five to 10 minutes to study a quick fun lesson on the app.
27
But really it doesn't feel like studying because you get points and rewards, which makes learning a language feel like a game.
28
Because the app is completely free, anyone around the world can use it.
29
I also have a special giveaway to 10 lucky subscribers on my channel, but you'll have to wait until the end of the video to find out!
30
Let's talk about my top five tips for beginners in English.
31
My first tip is #1 Learn Vocabulary.
32
Look around your house and put notes on items.
33
You can write just one word or a simple sentence or a more complex sentence.
34
When you use the microwave, read the word and sentence out loud.
35
You will remember the word microwave, the sentence structure "this is" and the verb “to heat up.” Go crazy and put notes everywhere!
36
Let's go to tip #2.
37
#2 Improve Listening.
38
Watch simple English videos, like this lesson, and listen to simple English songs.
39
Don't be worried about using English subtitles or reading English lyrics to the songs.
40
You're a beginner, so it's okay to use this extra help.
41
Subtitles and lyrics can help you a lot.
42
Make sure that you understand at least 70%.
43
If you watch a five minute video and you are completely lost, stop.
44
It's okay. Find something easier.
45
When you understand the ideas, but not every single word, this is great.
46
That means you're on the right path.
47
A good way to improve your listening is with simple songs.
48
What kind of music do you like?
49
The Beatles, Queen, Taylor Swift?
50
Whatever you like, choose one song, look up the lyrics, and listen to the song again and again with the lyrics.
51
You can sing, too.
52
Congratulations!
53
You are improving your listening skills right now with this video.
54
All right, let's go to tip #3.
55
Tip #3 is Practice Pronunciation.
56
If you know a lot of English vocabulary, but other people can't understand you easily when you speak, that's a sad situation.
57
So don't forget to practice your pronunciation.
58
In tip #2, Improve Listening, I said you should watch simple English videos and listened to simple English songs.
59
Well, you can use these, too, to practice your pronunciation.
60
Listen to real English and repeat directly after it.
61
It's important to hear your own voice using English.
62
Every time you see an English sentence, say it out loud.
63
“This is a microwave.” Every time you hear an English sentence, say it out loud.
64
“We are the champions, my friends, and we'll keep on fighting till the end!” When you practice pronunciation, you are becoming more and more confident when you speak.
65
I used to go to work every day.
66
I used to go to work every day.
67
I used to go to work every day.
68
Are you ready to practice pronunciation and speak out loud?
69
All right, let's do it during tip #4.
70
My tip #4 for beginners learning English is to Grow Your Grammar skills.
71
This is the biggest mistake that a lot of English learners make.
72
They study only grammar.
73
Don't study tons and tons of grammar books.
74
You will feel tired, frustrated, and annoyed.
75
Not good. I recommend studying basic sentence structure and basic verb conjugations.
76
What is basic sentence structure?
77
Subject + verb+ object.
78
Vanessa is a teacher.
79
Can you say that with me?
80
Vanessa is a teacher.
81
Great work.
82
You just practiced your pronunciation.
83
Let's go on to some simple verb tenses.
84
I recommend focusing on the simple past, the present continuous, and the simple future.
85
Let's take a look at some sentences and I challenge you to speak out loud, imitate my voice and say these sentences directly after me.
86
Are you ready?
87
I watched this lesson.
88
It's your turn.
89
Say it out loud.
90
Great work.
91
This is the simple past because it uses -ED at the end.
92
I am watching this lesson.
93
Your turn. Say it out loud.
94
Great. This is the present continuous.
95
It's happening right now.
96
I'm going to watch this lesson.
97
Say it out loud.
98
Go ahead. Great.
99
This is the future.
100
I used “going to” and not “will” because “going to” is more common in daily conversation.
101
Let's look at some more examples.
102
I learned English.
103
Go ahead. Say it out loud.
104
Excellent. This is the simple past because it uses -ED at the end.
105
I am a learning English.
106
Say it out loud.
107
Go ahead. Excellent.
108
This is the present continuous.
109
It's happening right now.
110
You are learning English.
111
I am going to learn English, say it out loud.
112
Excellent. This is the future.
113
It's something that is going to happen in the future.
114
I ate breakfast.
115
Say it out loud.
116
Go ahead. Excellent work.
117
This is the simple past, but do you see -ED?
118
Nope. This is an irregular past tense verb.
119
There are a lot of them in English.
120
I am eating breakfast.
121
Now it's your turn.
122
Go ahead. Great.
123
This is the present continuous it's happening right now.
124
I'm going to eat breakfast.
125
Say it out loud.
126
Go ahead. Excellent work.
127
This is the future.
128
And you're also using a contraction.
129
“I am” becomes “I'm.” So, great work imitating, practicing your pronunciation, and also growing your simple grammar skills.
130
Are you ready to learn vocabulary, improve your listening, practice your pronunciation, and grow your grammar skills at the same time?
131
Okay, let's go to tip #5.
132
My fifth tip for beginners learning English is to use Duolingo.
133
Duolingo is the world's number one language learning app.
134
It is perfect for beginners and it's completely free.
135
You can do all of the four skills I just talked about.
136
Here I am learning Italian: learning vocabulary, practicing pronunciation, improving listening, growing my grammar skills.
137
Knowing English can give you so many benefits in life, a better job, easier communication with other people, and simply opening your mind to another language.
138
On YouTube, I share these lessons with you every week, 100% for free.
139
And I love that Duolingo shares the same mission: Make education free and accessible to everyone!
140
I have only just started to learn Italian, so I'm a beginner just like you.
141
But I know that if I continue the daily quick lessons, my skills will grow every day.
142
This is my challenge for you.
143
Maintain a positive attitude and a lot of determination and your English skills will continue to improve lesson by lesson.
144
Because my subscribers are the best, I want to offer 10 lucky subscribers, maybe you, a free one year subscription to Duolingo Plus, which is their ad free platform and you can also download the lessons for offline use.
145
Of course, you can use the regular version of Duolingo for free forever, which is awesome!
146
But if you would like to get the ad free version, they're offering it to 10 of my lucky subscribers.
147
To win a year free subscription to Duolingo Plus, all you need to do is subscribe to my YouTube channel, download the Duolingo app with the link in the description box, and number three is I want to know “Why do you want to learn English?” I love learning more about my subscribers, learning more about you.

150

151
You can do it.
152
I know learning English is a big task, but it is rewarding and you're not alone.
153

154

Erste Eindrücke: Warum dieses Video tolles Lernmaterial für Anfänger ist

Dieses Video von Vanessa ist ein goldener Schatz für Englisch-Anfänger. Es kombiniert einfache Sprache mit praktischen Tipps, was es ideal macht, um nicht nur zu lernen, sondern auch zu üben. Die lockere Atmosphäre und die klare Aussprache helfen, sich schnell zurechtzufinden – perfekt fürs Englisch lernen mit YouTube! Besonders gut: Vanessa erklärt Schritte Schritt für Schritt, ohne überfordern. So macht Lernen Spaß und fühlt sich nicht wie Arbeit an.

Analyse: Warum die Sätze natürlich klingen

  • „Being a beginner is great because you can see fast progress.“ – Diese Satzstruktur ist einfach, aber effektiv. „Because“ verbindet zwei Sätze logisch, was für Anfänger leicht zu verstehen und nachzuahmen ist. Die Wiederholung von „beginner“ stärkt das Verständnis.
  • „Don't be worried about using English subtitles.“ – Die Formulierung „Don't be worried“ ist umgangssprachlich und natürlicher als „Don't worry“. Sie lehrt, wie man sich in Alltagssituationen ausdrückt, ohne formal zu sein.
  • „Find something easier.“ – Kurz und knapp! Diese einfache Befehlsform hilft, schnell zu lernen, wie man klare Anweisungen gibt oder befolgt. Perfekt fürs tägliche Sprechen.

Übungsroutine: So verbessern Sie Ihr Sprechen mit Shadowing

Ein einfacher Englisch Shadowing-Ritual: Nehmen Sie 5–10 Minuten pro Tag Zeit. Wählen Sie einen kurzen Abschnitt des Videos (z. B. die Tipps zu Vokabeln oder Hören). Spielen Sie ihn ab, pausieren Sie nach jedem Satz und wiederholen Sie ihn sofort – sozusagen shadow speech. Probieren Sie, die Intonation und die Geschwindigkeit von Vanessa nachzuahmen. Nutzen Sie ein Aufnahmegerät, um sich selbst zu hören. So merken Sie, wo Sie verbessern können. Wiederholen Sie dies täglich – schon nach wenigen Tagen werden Sie merken, dass Ihre Aussprache flüssiger wird!

Mit solchen Übungen macht shadow speak Spaß und bringt schnell Fortschritte. Probieren Sie es aus – Sie werden begeistert sein!

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
