Let's talk about how you can improve your English.

This is another video that I'm making in which I'm speaking at normal speed.

So I'm not slowing down.

This is just me talking normally.

You guys really liked the last one that I did.

And I'm not going to guarantee that I'm going to make videos like this all the time.

Like I said before, if you want my material where I speak at normal speed or I speak fast,

make sure to sign up for my advanced podcast episodes.

I release a lot of those.

And so if you want regular practice with this, that's your best bet.

That's the thing you can do to get my material in which I speak fast.

But today I want to make another video in which I speak at normal speed like this.

And I want to talk about how you can improve your English.

This is a really broad topic.

This is very vast.

There are so many things that could be said, of course.

But I just want to talk about three main points.

I want to talk about three things that you can focus on

that will help you improve your English and reach a higher level than what you have right now.

By the way, I'm wearing these sunglasses again because I'm sitting outside

and it's really cold and I want to be in the sun and so I'm not just trying to look cool.

I've got these sunglasses on just so I can record this in the sun.

So let's talk about three different things you can do in order to improve your English

and what I want to do is I want to talk first just about how we improve in any area

because that's really what I'm going to focus on.

Like what three things do we do in order to improve in any domain,

any skill that we have,

anything that we're trying to improve,

what is it that we need to do?

Not just language learning but anything in life.

Well number one, we need repeated practice so that we can get comfortable with that thing that we're doing.

So for example, I think of one of my first jobs that I had,

I worked at a deli.

A deli is a place to sell sandwiches in the US.

And so I remember making sandwiches at a deli,

and that was one of my first jobs.

And the way that I got better at my job was just doing it repeatedly.

At the very beginning, I was terrible at making sandwiches.

I did not know what I was doing.

And if you've listened to me talk in different episodes of mine about this subject,

you know that in general,

I'm not good with my hands.

I have a big weakness when it comes to using my hands to build things,

create things, manipulate things.

I just can't do it well.

That's always been one of my weaknesses and so you can imagine

when I first started making sandwiches it took me a

while to get the hang of it

but with repeated practice I was able to actually get better at making sandwiches

because I just kept doing it over and over again.

And so repeated practice of course is necessary if you want to get better at something.

The second thing is that we want to correct the things that we're doing wrong.

So you need to identify these things,

you need to see what it is that you're not doing right,

and you need to correct that.

Otherwise you're not going to improve.

In order to improve you need to correct the things that you can't do well,

that you're not doing right.

So I can think of another job

that I had where I had to fold a lot of clothes

and I had to stack them in a pile and

And the only way that I was able to get better was my manager had to like take a look and see,

oh, you're not doing this right.

You're not doing that right.

You need to do it more like this.

And that's how I would realize like what my mistakes were.

And so I had to get corrected in order to actually fold the clothes right,

stack them right.

And so if no one had ever told me that I was wrong about the way I was doing something

and the way I was folding those clothes,

then I wouldn't have improved.

And so in order to improve,

we want to make sure that we're correcting the things that we're doing wrong.

And this involves identifying those things,

identifying them and correcting them, right?

And then the third thing is we need to increase the difficulty of the tasks

that we're doing in order to actually improve our skills, right?

If you just do the same thing at the same level,

that's not going to make you reach a higher level

because you actually have to practice with things that are at higher levels than the level that you're at, right?

So I think of like playing tennis for example.

If you play tennis against the same level of opponents,

maybe just the same exact opponent who's just at the same level and you just keep beating them over and over again,

this isn't gonna necessarily make you reach the next level where you can beat an opponent who's harder.

In order to do that,

you actually have to challenge yourself and play harder opponents

and then that'll make you get better so that you can actually beat that opponent.

And so we need to increase the difficulty of what we're doing.

So those are the three things that we need to do.

We need to have repeated practice to get comfortable with what we're doing.

We need to correct the things that we do wrong and we need to increase the difficulty.

Those are the three things that we need to do in order to improve in any area of life.

So now let's talk specifically about language learning.

So how can we do those things?

So the first one I mentioned is repeating, repetition.

So repeated practice will help us get familiar with different words,

obviously, and phrases and expressions.

It'll help us learn the grammar just intuitively just by seeing it over and over again.

And it'll help us get accustomed to the right sounds.

100

We actually will actually start to hear the correct sounds and be able to identify them,

101

distinguish them, get used to them.

102

You'll just get used to how the language actually sounds, right?

103

Then other things as well,

104

but those are some of the main things that you can get from repeated practice.

105

Things that you get comfortable with when you just repeat the things that you're listening to,

106

reading, saying, whatever it may be.

107

So repeated practice is really good.

108

One thing that I'm doing right now with Greek,

109

because I'm learning Greek right now,

110

is I'm listening to a series of videos,

111

not just one video, like a series of videos.

112

There's probably like 50 of them or something like that.

113

I'm listening to like this series of 50 videos.

114

They're short videos, but I'm listening to them many times.

115

Like for example, I think each video I probably listen to like six,

116

seven times, sometimes eight times or something like that.

117

I'm not just doing it over and over again like the same day.

118

I'm just talking about like,

119

you know, throughout

120

you know my time listening to these videos over time I'll revisit these videos I'll kind of go in order

121

or I do it in different ways

122

but I'll end up probably listening to each of these videos like seven

123

or eight times and then I'll probably move on I'm almost done with

124

that I've probably listened to most of them like five

125

or six times already and

126

so this might sound like that's pretty extreme that's a lot of repetition

127

but when you're at a lower level like I am with Greek this is extremely helpful.

128

It's so helpful to do this type of repeated practice

129

and the good thing is that I'm at a low enough level where it's still just like thrilling,

130

it's still exciting just to be able to understand things.

131

So I don't get that bored listening to the same thing again and again because I'm just happy I understand it.

132

Once you're at a higher level it's a little harder to do this

133

because you get bored because you don't have that same thrill of just like,

134

whoa, I can understand this.

135

That's not as exciting anymore.

136

And so it's a little bit harder to do this without getting bored when you're at a higher level.

137

But if you're at a lower level, this is great.

138

This is a really, really good way of learning a bunch of things.

139

Because when I do this,

140

listening to this content multiple times,

141

I notice so many things,

142

phrases that the person is saying just stick in my head because I hear them so much.

143

right like I can hear this person's voice on replay in my head

144

and that's really good when you're learning a language like hearing their voice the person's voice

145

that you're listening to that can really help you just kind of remember phrases

146

and words because you're kind of remembering the exact things

147

that they say and I've gotten comments from people

148

that say like they hear my voice in their head and

149

when they read things they read it in my voice

150

and that's a great thing I think

151

because it kind of helps you just notice things

152

that native speakers say more you notice sounds you notice how things sound

153

when I say them so that's really good and then

154

so what else

155

so I talked about you know listening to the same thing

156

multiple times like I do with Greek also just frequent practice

157

so this is an exact like repetition it's not like you're listening to the same exact thing

158

but the fact that you're repeatedly over

159

and over again doing this type of practice like you're listening to something like listening to my different videos or podcast episodes.

160

This frequent practice even though it's not literal repetition,

161

it's repetition in the sense that you're practicing the same things over

162

and over again and you're hearing me say a lot of the same things over and over again.

163

And so not just literal repetition but very frequent practice of the same type of of activity like listening and reading,

164

speaking, you know just doing this a lot is part of that repetition.

165

So if you're doing a lot of frequent practice,

166

you're doing a lot of listening like every day

167

and not just like a lot in terms of quantity but frequent like I said.

168

So you're frequently listening, frequently reading, frequently speaking, frequently writing.

169

This will help with just everything that repetition helps you with.

170

You'll notice words more, you'll be able to notice different grammar things intuitively, right?

171

Maybe you don't even like notice them but inside you're like absorbing this grammar.

172

Like this repeated practice just like with everything else in our life,

173

every other domain, this is a great way to improve your English or any other language that you're learning.

174

So let me move on to the next point.

175

So correcting your mistakes.

176

So this is something that people don't do enough of

177

and that's because you probably don't have interaction with a teacher every single day that's correcting your mistakes.

178

And so it's understandable that you might not do that much of this.

179

But it is something that we should do more of in order to improve.

180

Especially if you're at a level where you can already understand pretty well and you really need to focus on your speaking,

181

you're gonna need correction.

182

You're gonna need people to point out to you when you say something that's unnatural,

183

that's wrong, or whatever.

184

And a lot of times we can identify this ourselves,

185

but there are some things that we can't really identify ourselves.

186

Like we need a native speaker to show us this and

187

so that's why it's actually important to take classes with native speakers

188

or to just have some kind of contact with native speakers who can do this.

189

And so this will help you identify your mistakes.

190

So having a tutor that can help you with your English or whatever other language that you're learning,

191

this is going to really help you identify your mistakes like they should give you some correction

192

and then you correct your mistakes in different ways.

193

There's different ways you can do this.

194

You can make flashcards from the different things that you said wrong.

195

Some people don't like flashcards, that's okay.

196

You might just use other forms of ways to repeat this correct phrase that you said incorrectly.

197

You might try to use it in your own sentences,

198

writing sentences down with these phrases or these words that you use wrong, whatever.

199

so there's different ways you could do that so tutors

200

and other native speakers are just great a great way to do this you can do this without a tutor

201

if you use a translator and you just like figure out what you're saying wrong

202

or what you're not able to say

203

so like I used to do this a lot in the

204

past where I would translate my own transcripts from like my

205

podcast episodes I would translate them from English into French

206

and I would do like writing practice like that

207

and it would also just help me identify the words

208

and phrases that I wasn't saying right

209

because I would check them afterwards with the translator like first I would translate it

210

and then I would just plug it into Google Translate

211

and then look at the difference right

212

so that's a great way you can do it on your own

213

and it's not just identifying your mistakes

214

but you're filling in your gaps like some things you just don't know how to say it's not even like a mistake,

215

you just don't know how to say that phrase.

216

And so you can identify that on your own using these types of techniques like what I just said,

217

using a translator and translating things through writing or speech or whatever.

218

So there are different ways you can do this,

219

you know, whether it's a tutor,

220

whether it's using a translator,

221

there's different ways you can do this

222

but you definitely want to focus on correcting your mistakes and filling in those gaps of things that you can't say right.

223

So especially for those of you that already understand pretty well and you really need to focus on your speaking,

224

this is what you're gonna want to do.

225

You're gonna want to correct your mistakes.

226

Identify them, correct them, fill in your gaps

227

and this is a surefire way that you're actually going to improve because you're gonna actually have more words,

228

you're gonna have more phrases,

229

you can have better grammar or whatever just by correcting yourself.

230

And lastly, you want to increase your difficulty,

231

increase the difficulty of the content that you're using.

232

So you You want to listen to faster English.

233

This is an example of that.

234

So if you're not used to this speed,

235

it's good that you're practicing with this because you want to increase the difficulty of what you're listening to.

236

You want to listen to audio instead of video.

237

Video is actually easier to understand than audio.

238

So right now, this is easier than my advanced episodes.

239

My advanced episodes, you don't get to see me.

240

It's easier when you see me,

241

you see my hands move,

242

I sometimes make gestures that kind of help you understand what I'm saying.

243

If you're just listening to audio, that's actually more difficult.

244

That's why it's harder to talk to people on the phone

245

than it is to talk to them through a video call, for example.

246

So if you understand me here pretty well right now,

247

well, try my advanced episodes in which you can't even see me and that'll be like,

248

you know, a level above this, like a slight level.

249

It's pretty similar, but it's harder when you can't see me, right?

250

Listen to things that are about harder topics, right?

251

Not just topics about language learning,

252

but maybe other fields where you're going to be exposed to harder language,

253

different vocabulary that you're not familiar with,

254

etc. Listen to different speakers.

255

I'm going to be the easiest person for you to understand probably in English.

256

So a way you can increase difficulty is by listening to other people, not just me.

257

So a great way you can do that is with my US Conversations podcast.

258

If you still want to hear me as part of the conversation but you want to hear someone else speaking as well,

259

you can use that resource.

260

That link's down below.

261

That's a great way for you to kind of get accustomed to listening to other people

262

and also listening to more than one person speaking.

263

I had this issue when I was learning Spanish is I would only talk to one person,

264

usually my wife, and I got really fluent and comfortable just talking one-on-one,

265

but then when I moved to Mexico I realized

266

that I couldn't function well in groups where there was more than one person there

267

because I just couldn't follow everything they were saying and then I had to really practice with this.

268

I had to get a lot of experience practicing in group settings where I'm listening to more than one person.

269

So that's something that you definitely want to make sure that you're practicing with.

270

That's another way that you need to increase the difficulty in order to reach the next level.

271

So again you can use my US Conversations podcast for that

272

or you can use other content where there's two people talking

273

and people that are different and not just me talking right

274

so that'll help you out but

275

if you need something that's a little bit just a little

276

more comfortable for you then of course check out my US Conversations podcast.

277

If you already talked to yourself make sure you start talking to someone else.

278

That's another way you can increase the difficulty.

279

You know talking to a person is often harder than just talking to yourself so that's something else.

280

Writing like if you already do you know regular writing practice write more complicated texts.

281

Write about more complicated topics.

282

Not just what you did on the weekend but maybe something else that's a little more complicated.

283

Describe more complicated things.

284

If you read, which you should,

285

reading is a great way to improve your English.

286

If you read something or if you read things in general to improve your English,

287

if you want to increase the difficulty, read harder things.

288

You can do this in anything with your listening,

289

your speaking, your writing, your reading.

290

You want to make sure that you're increasing the difficulty so that you're actually reaching higher levels.

291

If you use the content that's only at this same level that's not going to help you reach the next level.

292

Okay so those were the three main points that I wanted to talk about.

293

These help us improve in any area of life but particularly in language learning as well.

294

It's general advice but I try to give specific examples of this

295

and hopefully there was something here that you got

296

that might change your language learning routine or the way

297

that you're thinking about your progress in English or whatever other language

298

that you're learning

299

and me as a con English content creator who's trying to help you with these three things I think

300

that you can use my material and you know do these three things

301

that I just mentioned and so I try to make content

302

that you can repeat over and over again like these types of videos and get that repeated practice of course.

303

I make content of different levels of difficulty like there's my easier videos and then there's like these types of videos.

304

There's my advanced podcast and there's my US conversations podcast.

305

So there's like different you know levels of difficulty you can use to increase the difficulty of the content

306

that you're listening to or whatever.

307

And then of course if you correction you can take a class with those different teachers

308

that I talked to on my US Conversations podcast and

309

so you can actually find a teacher there who can correct your mistakes,

310

help you identify your mistakes and so even with

311

that you know I have a resource to kind of help you with that.

312

You can find a teacher from my US Conversations podcast because I mostly talk to different English teachers from around the country.

313

So hopefully with my content you can do these three things

314

that I mentioned but in general

315

if you find a way to do these three things you

316

will improve your English will improve all right thank you all for watching this video

317

and I'll talk to you in the next one
