シャドーイング練習: LEARNING ENGLISH - LESSON 1 (INTRODUCTION) - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ

hi everybody this is mr. Duncan in England how are you today? are you ok?

I hope so are you happy? I hope so welcome to the very first episode of my series of English teaching videos before I begin we will take a look at some of the common questions that often arise when talking about learning the English language and more importantly when learning it as a second language so the first question must be why do we need to learn English of course one of the reasons why we need to be able to speak English nowadays is because the world is becoming smaller thanks to the internet and our developing global economy more and more people are using English as a common way to communicate with each other so now it has become unavoidable that companies and large businesses will need to employ people who can speak more than their own native language that is where English comes in it is now widely considered as an international language of course learning anything is difficult and English is no exception however there are ways to make the situation easier I have come up with my own list of general rules for learning English do you want to hear them do you want to know what they are okay let's take a look at them one by one learning English takes time and patience it cannot be rushed try to relax and take it easy the most important thing you need at the beginning is a good vocabulary for without words you have nothing to work with you must view English as a part of your body just as you would an arm or a leg it must become a part of your everyday life daily practice is very important you must start with a strong foundation or base and slowly build on it day by day do not look at English as just another subject your attitude to English and the way you view it will decide how well you progress just as we say in English no pain no gain do not worry about making mistakes in fact the more mistakes you make the more you will learn from them just like learning to ride a bike sometimes you fall off so what do you do you get back on and try again the two most important words to remember when learning English are practise and confidence practise English every day and be confident you will find that the more you use English the better your English will become and the more confident you become then the more you will want to use it make it a rule to tell yourself I can do it I can do it I can do it !!!!!
