Creazione lezione...
1
Hello everyone and welcome back.
2
If you want to speak English fluently, there is one thing you must stop doing today, waiting until you feel ready.
3
You may have studied English for years.
4
You may understand movies, videos, songs and conversations.
5
You may know hundreds or even thousands of English words.
6
You may understand what people are saying when they speak slowly. but
7
when it is your turn to speak something happens you become
8
quiet you think about the perfect sentence you search for the right word you translate from your native language into english
9
you worry about your grammar you worry about your pronunciation you worry that someone will laugh
10
and while you are thinking about all these things the conversation continues without you
11
so today i want you to change your approach stop waiting
12
for confidence start speaking before you feel confident stop waiting for perfect english start using the english you already know
13
and most importantly stop thinking too much you need to train
14
your mouth not just your mind english is not a subject
15
that you only study english is a skill
16
that you practice think about walking you did not learn to
17
walk by reading 10 books pass about walking you learned by
18
trying you stood up you took a step you fell you
19
tried again you took another step slowly your body learned what
20
to do speaking english works in a similar way at first
21
your sentences may be slow you may make mistakes you may forget words you may feel uncomfortable
22
that is completely normal your goal is not to speak perfect
23
english on your first day your goal is to speak just
24
speak say something say it again say it differently keep going
25
this is how fluency begins now i want you to do
26
something with me take a deep breath relax your shoulders open your mouth
27
and say i can speak english again i can speak english
28
now say i do not need perfect english to speak english
29
again i do not need perfect english to speak english
30
and one more time i will speak even when i make mistakes excellent
31
that is the mindset you need
32
because many english learners are not actually afraid of english they
33
are afraid of making mistakes in front of other people they think a mistake means they are not intelligent
34
they think forgetting a word means they are bad at english
35
they think having an accent means they cannot speak well
36
but none of these things are true my stakes are not proof
37
that you are failing my stakes are proof
38
that you are practicing imagine going to a gym
39
and lifting a heavy weight your muscles become tired
40
that tired feeling does not mean your workout is useless it
41
means your muscles are being challenged speaking english can feel uncomfortable in the same way
42
when you force yourself to speak your brain is working you
43
are searching for words you are creating sentences you are listening
44
you are responding you are making decisions quickly this is training
45
and the more you train the easier it becomes
46
so today i want you to make a simple promise to
47
yourself do not wait for the perfect sentence speak the sentence you can say now
48
maybe you want to say i went to the supermarket
49
because i needed to buy some food but you cannot remember the word supermarket
50
that is okay say i went to the store because i needed food
51
simple clear natural you communicated your idea
52
that is what matters you do not need complicated english to communicate you need useful english you need english
53
that comes quickly you need english that you can use without translating every word
54
and this is why i want you to stop thinking
55
so much before speaking let me give you a simple example
56
someone asks you what did you do today you may start
57
thinking how should i answer what tense should i use is my grammar correct
58
which vocabulary should i use should i say i have gone
59
or i went
60
and suddenly you say nothing instead train yourself to answer immediately
61
i went to work then continue i had a busy morning
62
i came home in the afternoon i cooked dinner i watched a movie
63
that is enough you are speaking you are communicating you are
64
training your brain to respond in english now let's practice i
65
will give you a question do not translate do not think
66
too much just answer what is your name say your answer where are you from
67
answer what do you do every day answer what time do
68
you wake up answer what do you usually eat for breakfast
69
answer what do you like to do in your free time answer what did you do yesterday answer
70
What are you going to do tomorrow answer
71
do not worry if your answers are short short answers are powerful
72
when you are learning you can start with five words then
73
make 10 words then 15 then 20 your speaking ability grows
74
through small repetitions for example say i wake up at 7
75
now make it longer i usually wake up at 7 in
76
the morning now longer i usually wake up at 7 in the morning
77
because i need to get ready for work now add more i usually wake up at 7 in the morning
78
because i need to get ready for work
79
i take a shower have breakfast
80
and leave home around eight look at what happened you started
81
with one simple sentence then you built a small paragraph this
82
is how you should practice every day do not try to
83
memorize huge speeches build sentences from small pieces learn one useful expression
84
and use it again
85
and again for example i think i think this is a
86
good idea i think this movie is interesting i think i
87
need more practice i think i understand i think i can
88
do it now try in my opinion in my opinion english
89
is important in my opinion speaking is more important than memorizing
90
in my opinion practice makes speaking easier you are learning patterns
91
boss boss help your brain speak faster the more you use
92
a pattern the less you have to think about it and
93
that is exactly what we want we want english to become automatic
94
when a person asks you how are you you should not
95
translate the question you already know i'm good thank you what
96
are you doing i'm working where are you going i'm going
97
home do you need help yes please are you ready yes i'm ready these sentences are simple
98
but simple english spoken confidently is much better than complicated english
99
that never leaves your mouth
100
so force yourself to speak talk to yourself yes talk to
101
yourself you do not always need a partner you can practice
102
while walking you can practice while cooking you can practice
103
while cleaning your room you can practice while driving
104
if it is safe to do so look around you
105
and describe what you see say i am sitting in my
106
room there is a table in front of me my phone
107
is on the table the window is open the weather is
108
warm today i have some work to do i am feeling
109
a little tired i need to finish my work before dinner this simple exercise
110
is extremely powerful
111
because you are training yourself to think directly in english you
112
are connecting the english words with your real life you are not connecting english with translation
113
that difference matters
114
if you see a chair do not think of the word in your native language first think chair
115
if you see water think water if you are hungry think I am hungry
116
if you are tired think I am tired
117
if you want something think I want this start connecting your
118
experiences directly to English at first it may feel strange
119
that is okay your brain is creating a new habit and habits require repetition Let's practice another powerful technique.
120
Whenever you do something, describe it in English.
121
If you wake up, say, I just woke up.
122
If you brush your teeth, I am brushing my teeth.
123
If you make coffee, I am making coffee.
124
If you open your laptop, I am opening my laptop.
125
If you start working, I am starting my work.
126
If you finish, I am done.
127
If you feel tired, I need a break.
128
These are not complicated sentences.
129
But if you repeat them every day, they become automatic.
130
And automatic English is what you need for fluency.
131
You do not need to know every word in the dictionary.
132
You need to be able to use the words you know.
133
this is a very important difference many learners spend hours learning new vocabulary
134
they write 20 new words in a notebook they memorize definitions they watch vocabulary videos
135
but the next day they cannot use those words in a conversation why
136
because knowing a word and using a word are different skills
137
if you learn the word comfortable use it say i feel
138
comfortable here this chair is comfortable i am comfortable speaking english with my friends i want to feel more comfortable
139
when i speak use the word again and again
140
and again your goal is not to collect words your goal is to activate them
141
so whenever you learn a new word create three
142
or four sentences with it speak those sentences out loud your
143
mouth needs practice your ears need practice your brain needs practice english becomes easier
144
when all three work together now let's talk about Maybe you have tried speaking English before.
145
Maybe someone corrected you maybe be someone laughed at your pronunciation maybe you said something wrong
146
and felt embarrassed please do not let one bad experience control
147
your future one mistake does not define your ability one embarrassing
148
moment does not decide who you will become you are allowed
149
to be a beginner you are allowed to sound imperfect you
150
are allowed to pause you are allowed to search for a
151
word you are allowed to say sorry i don't know the
152
word you are allowed to say let me try again you
153
are allowed to say what i mean is these expressions can save you
154
when you get stuck for example i went to the
155
um the place where you buy medicine you forgot the word
156
pharmacy that's okay you communicated the meaning then later you can
157
learn pharmacy now use it i went to the pharmacy you
158
did not fail you learned this is how real speaking practice
159
works you speak you get stuck you find a way around the problem you continue
160
that is a fluency fluency does not mean never getting stuck fluency means knowing how to continue
161
when you get stuck this is why you should not stop
162
every time you forget a word use another word explain it
163
describe it give an example keep moving for example you forget umbrella you can say the thing i use
164
when it rains perfect you communicated later learn the word umbrella
165
then use it this teaches your brain something very important i can survive in english
166
and when your brain understands
167
that your confidence grows now i want you to practice speaking
168
for one full minute choose a simple topic your room your
169
family your job your school your favorite food your weekend anything do not stop
170
if you make a mistake continue if you forget a word use another word
171
if you do not know what to say describe what you
172
see your goal is not perfection your goal is one minute
173
of continuous english ready start my name is continue i live
174
in i usually continue i like continue i don't like continue today i continue tomorrow i
175
keep speaking even if your english is simple keep going
176
that one minute is valuable tomorrow try two minutes after a
177
week try five minutes after a month you may be surprised
178
by how much easier it feels you will begin to notice
179
something you will stop translating every sentence you will start remembering
180
phrases automatically you will respond faster you will feel less afraid
181
you will make fewer pauses you will become more comfortable that is progress and please remember this
182
do not compare your speaking ability with someone who has been practicing for 10 years
183
compare yourself with the person you were yesterday yesterday maybe you could speak for 30 seconds
184
today speak for one minute yesterday maybe you knew five useful expressions today use 10
185
yesterday maybe you were afraid to speak today speak anyway
186
that is success your english does not need to become perfect overnight it needs to become stronger every day
187
so create a daily speaking habit even 10 minutes can make
188
a difference for the first few minutes speak about your day
189
then practice common questions then describe something around you then repeat
190
a short english conversation then speak freely for one minute do this every day not once a week not only
191
when you feel motivated every day because consistency is more powerful than motivation
192
some days you will feel excited some days you will feel tired some days your english will feel easy
193
other days you may feel like you have forgotten everything do
194
not quit on those days those difficult days are part of
195
the process you do not need to feel motivated to practice you need to practice
196
because you have decided to improve there will be moments
197
when you think i'm not getting better
198
but you are your brain is learning your mouth is learning
199
your ears are learning your confidence is growing quietly progress is not always visibles sometimes you notice it suddenly
200
when you have a conversation and realize wait i just spoke english without translating
201
that moment is coming but you have to keep going
202
so stop waiting stop saying my english is not good enough stop saying i will speak
203
when i become fluent you become fluent by speaking not before
204
speaking by speaking say this i will speak before i feel ready again i will speak before i feel ready
205
now say i will make mistakes and keep going again i will make mistakes and keep going and finally
206
I will practice English every day.
207
Excellent.
208
Now imagine yourself six months from today.
209
Imagine walking into a room where people are speaking English.
210
Instead of becoming nervous, you listen.
211
Someone asks you a question.
212
You answer.
213
Maybe your grammar is not perfect
214
but you answer someone asks another question you respond you smile
215
you continue you are not thinking about every word you are communicating
216
that future version of you is not created by luck it
217
is created by what you do today every sentence you speak today is preparing you for that future.
218
Every mistake is training.
219
Every repetition is training.
220
Every uncomfortable conversation is training.
221
Every time you choose to speak instead of staying silent, you become stronger.
222
So force yourself to speak, not because you are weak, because you are training yourself to become stronger speak
223
when you are nervous speak when you do not know every word speak
224
when your pronunciation is not perfect speak
225
when your grammar is not perfect speak anyway your voice needs practice your confidence needs practice your english needs practice
226
and you cannot practice something you refuse to use
227
so today make english part of your life talk to yourself describe your day ask yourself questions
228
and swear them repeat useful expressions listen to english pause repeat
229
speak decrecate small conversations use simple words build longer sentences and most importantly
230
do not stop because of mistakes your mistakes are not your enemy silence is
231
if you stay silent
232
because you are afraid of making mistakes you never give yourself the chance to improve but
233
when you speak you create an opportunity an opportunity to learn an opportunity to improve an opportunity to become confident
234
so open your mouth use the english you already know
235
start with one sentence then another then another you do not have to climb the whole mountain today
236
you only have to take the next step say i am learning english then i am practicing every day
237
then i am becoming more confident then i can communicate in english then i will not give up
238
keep saying it keep practicing it keep believing it
239
and one day you will look back and realize
240
that the person who was once afraid to speak is now speaking without fear not
241
because english suddenly became easy but because you became stronger you trained your brain you trained your mouth
242
you trained your confidence you stopped waiting for perfection you stopped overthinking you started speaking
243
and that is the real secret do not wait until you feel confident speak
244
and confidence will come do not wait until you know every
245
word speak with the words you know do not wait until your grammar is perfect speak make mistakes
246
and learn do not wait for someone to give you permission give yourself permission you are allowed to speak english today
247
you are allowed to make mistakes today you are allowed to sound like a learner today
248
because every fluent speaker was once a beginner every confident speaker
249
once struggled every person who speaks easily today once had to force themselves to speak
250
so this is your moment stop thinking start speaking one sentence
251
one minute one conversation one day at a time your english
252
will grow your confidence will grow your voice will become stronger
253
and eventually speaking english will stop feeling like a difficult task
254
it will become something natural something normal something you simply do
255
so from today when you know what you want to say say it
256
when you forget a word find another way
257
when you make a mistake smile and continue when you feel nervous breathe
258
and speak and
259
when your mind tells you you are not ready answer i
260
don't need to be ready i need to practice say it
261
again i don't need to be ready i need to practice
262
that is your new mindset you are not waiting to become
263
a fluent english speaker you are becoming one every time you speak
264
so speak today speak tomorrow speak even when nobody is listening speak even when your english is imperfect
265
because every word you speak is taking you one step closer to fluency now take a deep breath smile
266
and say it with confidence i will stop overthinking i will
267
stop waiting i will stop being afraid of mistakes i will
268
speak english every day i will keep going i will become fluent
269

3 Speaking Exercises to Become Fluent in English
Interview EnglishDaily ConversationHigh School Students
Per chi è questo video?
Questo video è perfetto per chi ha studiato inglese per anni, capisce film e conversazioni, ma si blocca quando deve parlare. Se ti preoccupi per la grammatica, cerchi la parola giusta o traduci dalla tua lingua madre, qui troverai la chiave per superare queste barriere. È ideale per chi vuole passare da "capire" a "parlare fluentemente", senza aspettare di "essere pronto".
Parole e espressioni da non perdere
Nel video, ci sono espressioni utili per la pratica quotidiana: "force yourself to speak" (obbligarti a parlare), "stop thinking too much" (smetti di pensare troppo) e "speak the sentence you can say now" (parla la frase che puoi dire adesso). Queste frasi aiutano a cambiare mentalità: l'inglese è una abilità, non una materia da studiare a libro. Ricorda: i errori non sono fallimenti, ma "proof that you are practicing" (prova che stai esercitandoti).
Come migliorare la pronuncia inglese con questo video
Per lavorare sulla pronuncia, usa la tecnica del shadowing in inglese (o "shadowspeak"): ascolta una frase del video, pausa e ripetila immediatamente, imitando l'intonazione e il ritmo. Concentrati su espressioni come "I can speak English" o "I do not need perfect English": ripetile più volte, rilassando le spalle e aprendo bene la bocca. Questo esercizio allenamento la tua bocca a muoversi come un madrelingua, riducendo l'accento e aumentando la fluidità. Un consiglio: usa lo slow motion del video per analizzare ogni suono, poi accelera il passo man mano che diventi più sicuro.
Imparare l'inglese con YouTube è un modo efficace per mettere in pratica queste tecniche. Ricorda: la fluenza inizia non con la perfezione, ma con il coraggio di parlare, anche se sbagli. Oggi, fai una promessa a te stesso: "I will speak even when I make mistakes". E inizia subito con il shadowing: il tuo cervello e la tua bocca ti ringrazieranno!
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | being challenged · are not complicated · are allowed |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | have gone · have tried · have forgotten |
| Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa | someone who has · person who was · person who speaks |
| Verbo + -ing enjoy, keep, stop… + -ing — i verbi seguiti dalla forma in -ing | stop waiting · start speaking · stop thinking |
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
