Here's A.J with a quick piece to help you learn to speak fluent English effortlessly.
4
Hi, I'm A.J.
5
Hogue, the author of Effortless English, Learn to Speak English Like a Native.
6
the best way for you to speak English.
7
The very best way for you to speak English.
8
What is it?
9
To get the results you want.
10
What are the results you want in English?
11
Very simply, maybe you want to order successfully at a restaurant.
12
You say your order, you get the food you want.
13
You want to buy something.
14
You tell them what you want and you get it.
15
You want to buy a ticket and you can do it, right?
16
Those are the basic, basic things.
17
At a higher level, maybe you want to talk to someone.
18
So you want to communicate with them.
19
So they listen, they respect you, they like you.
20
You have a good conversation.
21
At a higher level, maybe you want to talk to a girl
22
or a guy or a young man or a young woman.
23
You want to get a date.
24
You want them to be attracted to you.
25
At a higher level, maybe you want to sell or persuade.
26
Maybe you're in business.
27
You need to give a speech or a sales presentation or a job interview.
28
You want to get the job.
29
How do you speak English best for these situations?
30
How should you do it?
31
What's the best way?
32
By the way, we're live on YouTube.
33
I see your comments.
34
Just wait a few minutes and I will talk to you a little bit.
35
So those of you live, just relax for a minute.
36
I'll get to your questions in a minute.
37
So the best way to speak is simply.
38
With simple, easy, direct.
39
This means fairly short sentences.
40
It means simple, common vocabulary.
41
It means you can speak slowly.
42
No need to speak quickly.
43
The key thing is to be simple, direct, clear, and confident.
44
That's great speaking.
45
Simple, direct, clear, confident.
46
You don't need complicated English to do that.
47
In fact, complicated English generally is bad communication.
48
It's noise.
49
Okay, we're constantly getting noise of people talking, talking, talking, noise, noise, noise, messages all the time.
50
And when people use long, long, long, long, long sentences and big,
51
big, big, big, big vocabulary to sound smart and they use complicated sentences and arguments and communication
52
and they're confusing this is not not effective communication
53
it's not the best i'll give you an example of this a quick story then i'll get to your questions
54
I was observing, watching an English class in Thailand at a university, one of the top universities in Thailand, one of the top two.
55
If you're Thai, you know which two I'm talking about.
56
So I was observing an English class.
57
And I was just sitting in the class, and this was kind of a more advanced English class.
58
The students were all listening to the professor.
59
The professor was talking.
60
And the professor was explaining some pretty clear, basic ideas.
61
The ideas were not difficult.
62
But the way he was talking, the way he was speaking, it was terrible.
63
He was using long, long, long, long, complicated sentences.
64
It's like he was trying to choose the most difficult vocabulary words possible,
65
the biggest, least common words possible to explain his ideas.
66
He was confusing most of the class.
67
You know, looking around the class, half of them look confused,
68
the other half look like they're getting bored and sleepy because they're confused. Because they were confused.
69
His actual ideas were really not complicated, but he was using complicated English.
70
This is very common with professors.
71
They do it to sound more intellectual.
72
But unfortunately, a lot of you think this is necessary.
73
Probably because you have been in schools too much, and you think that that advanced speaking means that you must do this,
74
that you must use complicated grammar that's very uncommon, that you must use these long,
75
long, long, difficult sentences, that you must use this very difficult vocabulary.
76
You get frustrated.
77
Oh, I can't remember that big new word I learned.
78
None of it's necessary.
79
None of it is necessary.
80
And in fact, I'd say the opposite.
81
it's actually going to hurt your communication.
82
You want to be great.
83
If you want to get good results with speaking, clear, simple, direct.
84
Clear, simple, direct.
85
That's it.
86
That is the most powerful communication.
87
You do that confidently, you will have no problem with your English speaking.
88
Now, another example, a native speaker this time, not Thai, an American named Blaine Ray, a fantastic teacher.
89
I went to one of his seminars.
90
He taught, you know, his ideas about teaching,
91
teaching languages, excellent ideas, but he used clear, short sentences.
92
Many people in his audience were from different countries.
93
Many were also Americans, native speakers, both groups.
94
Both groups agreed
95
that he was a great speaker a great communicator he did not need to use super long sentences
96
and difficult grammar
97
and very uncommon vocabulary words very very effective speaking simply
98
directly fairly slowly even great communicator blaine ray great teacher this
99
is good news for you this is great news for you you can celebrate this
100
because you can just stop worrying about speaking fast you can
101
stop worrying about using difficult grammar you can stop worrying about forgetting
102
some difficult vocabulary words stop worrying about it you don't need it in fact you you don't want to do
103
that not at all there's only one area there's only one skill where you do need speed where it is necessary.
104
Which one is it?
105
Can you guess?
106
It's listening.
107
Listening.
108
Now, listening, you need speed.
109
Yes, you do.
110
You need to do lots of listening
111
and you need to be able to understand maybe more difficult words because other people might use them.
112
And you need to understand instantly.
113
That's the difficult part, right?
114
When especially native speakers are speaking or you're listening to a tv show
115
or a movie and they seem like they're talking so fast, they're using idioms, they're using slang, maybe some words you don't know.
116
That's the tough skill.
117
That's where you do need the speed, for sure.
118
Absolutely, you do, and it does take time to get that fast listening skill at a high level.
119
For sure, it does.
120
So, focus your energy there, because on the speaking side, it's not necessary.
121
Not at all.
122
That's the good news.
123
So speak when you speak.
124
Don't worry about any of that stuff.
125
Simple, direct, clear, and confident.
126
That will get you the results you want.
127
The great job interviews, the sales, the great communication, friendship, all of it.
128
Let's go to some of the live questions now.
129
Questions and comments.
130
Come here to Rome.
131
I'm getting an invitation.
132
You guys are always inviting me to come to your countries.
133
Now, this is a great invitation because I love the city of Rome.
134
I have been there twice.
135
Victor is inviting me.
136
Hello, AJ.
137
When will you come here in Italy, Rome?
138
Roma is a fantastic city.
139
Hopefully soon.
140
I don't know.
141
Maybe next year.
142
If I'm lucky, maybe next year.
143
Of course, we have a lot of Italian members of Effortless English.
144
Max, one of our great superstars, graduated from Effortless English, is also in Rome.
145
So, thank you, by the way, because all the time when I do live shows and on social media, people are inviting me to their countries.
146
And of course, it's hard for me to go to every single country.
147
I would love to, but I have, you know, I have a life here too, and family and everything everything, but hopefully someday I will visit your country.
148
When I visit countries, I do like to meet effortless English family members.
149
I like, you know, people who have my courses, people who listen to my podcast, people who follow me on social media.
150
I'm happy to meet you when I visit your country.
151
So I will tell you, usually on Twitter, I will tell you when I'm traveling.
152
I'll tell you if I'm going to be in a country or a city, and I'm happy to usually just have coffee, and we'll just meet at a coffee shop and we can chat
153
so if i visit your city i'll be happy to meet you
154
so thank you for the invitations all of you okay
155
so here's the challenge right away alabay says uh teacher i can understand what you mean by talking clear
156
and simple but for my work i've got to understand high-level vocab, even though I don't want to talk like that.
157
And that is what I was just saying.
158
That's where the big challenge is.
159
That's where you do need.
160
Now, the good news is that is easier.
161
That is easier because it's passive, right?
162
It's easier to understand vocabulary that you see or hear.
163
that's called passive understanding or passive vocabulary you understand it
164
but maybe you cannot use it right you don't know it well enough
165
if you hear it in a sit in the in a certain situation you understand the meaning
166
but when when you are speaking it's hard for you to remember
167
that that's so it's actually good that that's easier however yeah it does require learning lots and lots of words, at least passively.
168
And again, that's why I'm constantly encouraging you to listen, listen, listen.
169
And also reading is fantastic.
170
Combining the two is really great, like with audio books plus a book.
171
So you do, as you move into the advanced levels, certainly, I think listening is the bigger challenge rather than speaking in some ways.
172
You can speak very effectively with simple vocabulary and short sentences.
173
Absolutely, you can.
174
I do it all the time.
175
But to really understand well, you do need a lot more vocabulary for listening and reading at least.
176
So, yes, good points.
177
I'm not telling you it's all easy.
178
I'm just saying that the speaking part, you can relax a bit.
179
Okay.
180
How can you graduate from effortless English?
181
I was kind of joking about that, actually.
182
I just mean he finished our English course doing VIP.
183
You know, you decide that.
184
You decide that.
185
If you think, like, you're advanced, you achieved all your goals with speaking, then you can say you graduated.
186
Okay.
187
Okay, now, of course, here's the other issue with the other challenge
188
that jean is mentioning is pronunciation i think my biggest problem
189
is vowels they are tricky what do you suggest for that right so
190
this is where for speaking for the skill of speaking that's where you probably should focus
191
most of your energy once you can use simple you know once you are good at using simple language
192
the next big challenge becomes pronunciation.
193
Why is pronunciation important?
194
Well, it's just so you.. it's the clear part, right?
195
I said simple, direct, clear, clear.
196
Clear means everybody understands you.
197
So what's the problem if you have a strong accent from your own country?
198
I mean, there's nothing wrong with it.
199
It doesn't mean you're a bad person or something.
200
It just means you probably are less understandable to most people.
201
maybe people in your country might understand you but if like
202
if you're italian
203
and you're you have a super italian accent right super strong maybe italians might understand you
204
when you speak english but you know germans may be kind of difficult americans maybe would really have trouble
205
you know japanese might really really really have trouble understanding you it's just that strong accent, meaning farther from standard accent,
206
makes you more difficult to understand.
207
If you have the most common accent, a very standard, very, very,
208
very standard common accent, such as the standard North American accent, which is mine, or also a standard British accent,
209
that kind of BBC type of accent,
210
those are so common, they're in the media everywhere that most people in the world understand those accents very clearly.
211
That's why pronunciation is important.
212
That's why I made my pronunciation course to help you with that.
213
That's where really the advanced challenge for speaking is.
214
Not so much in vocabulary and grammar, it's really more in the pronunciation part.
215
As for vowels, you know, you can use the shadowing technique that I've mentioned.
216
John, this is a very big, long question, answer, because it's a little complicated.
217
But check out my videos on YouTube about pronunciation.
218
If you're really interested, go to my website, everettlessenglishclub.com.
219
And I'll put it on the screen.
220
Check out my pronunciation course as well.
221
Okay.
222
Okay.
223
listening to your podcast every day nasur great good to hear like to hear
224
that okay now this is an emotional issue good another good question you guys have good questions today
225
about me good meaning they're connected to what i'm talking about how can i speak fluently without hesitating with strange people
226
I'm Arabic and my mother tongue is English, so native speaker here.
227
So see, even native speakers have the problem.
228
So this is obviously then, this is not a language problem.
229
It's not a language issue.
230
If you're a native speaker, you're totally fluent, but you still hesitate when talking to strangers, right?
231
So something happens.
232
You have the skill, clearly, you're fluent, but then when you try to talk to someone, become nervous.
233
It's an emotional issue, right?
234
You become nervous with new people.
235
You feel shy, you feel embarrassed.
236
And then that's when the hesitation and the worry start.
237
And then your, your, your speaking ability seems to disappear.
238
And so this really requires some emotional training.
239
I mean, this is one of the reasons in all my courses that I teach you this kind of emotional training, not only the words and phrases and vocab,
240
because it is so important.
241
You know, a big thing that you can do is start to train yourself to feel more confident.
242
You do that with your body, you know, shoulders back and your head up and using a strong voice and you start practicing that every day.
243
And then when you talk to people, be aware of your body.
244
Start with your body because it's easy to focus on.
245
And just start noticing, you know, when you're talking to someone, Practice for a while using a stronger voice, a lower, stronger voice.
246
Practice keeping your shoulders back, keeping a standing up straight, a nice good posture, good eye contact.
247
Focus on those things for a while.
248
It'll feel weird first, but you'll get better and better, and you'll find your confidence will start growing.
249
As your confidence grows, your speaking ability will just kind of magically improve
250
because you're dealing with the emotions that are causing the problem.
251
Okay.
252
Uh, Brazil.
253
Lots of Brazilians also.
254
We have a lot of Brazilian effortless English members and fans.
255
Okay.
256
Yes, indeed. So, Hind.
257
Hey, Hind.
258
How you doing?
259
Good to see you again.
260
I feel a lot of pressure because of the TOEFL exam, the speaking session.
261
I have to answer in only 45 seconds.
262
Yeah.
263
It's one of the reasons I don't like these exams, okay?
264
Because this is why I say, you know, the real test is the real world.
265
Real world communication.
266
That's the test of your English, not these stupid tests.
267
These tests are in many ways, they're very artificial and ridiculous.
268
very unnatural.
269
I mean, if someone's just shy, like our previous person, they could be a native speaker, but very shy.
270
And that pressure, that time pressure, could make them perform badly, even though they're a native speaker,
271
you know, completely fluent, complete master of English, and yet they might have some problem with some of these tests because of the emotional part,
272
the stress of it.
273
So I don't like it.
274
I don't like that at all.
275
But what can you do?
276
You just got to practice being under the pressure.
277
It's more of a, the TOEFL thing you're mentioning, the time pressure.
278
45 seconds, answer.
279
Again, it's an emotional pressure.
280
It's a stress they're putting on you.
281
It's very similar to being in a job interview situation where they ask you a question that's really very simple.
282
Why do you want to work here?
283
That's a pretty easy question, really.
284
It's really simple.
285
The English is easy.
286
but you get nervous because you need the job and you feel like you have to answer quickly and they're watching you.
287
And so then all the stress and the pressure, that's what makes the situation difficult.
288
Suddenly you find you can't even speak simple sentences anymore because you're so nervous, right?
289
So I understand that.
290
That's why it's a separate issue from the speaking.
291
It's really an emotional issue, a stress issue.
292
and the toeful speaking has a lot of
293
that in the time pressure especially you know you're being graded you know you're being judged
294
that puts a lot of stress on you
295
and then the time can stress you out too right i
296
mean you uh not only you need to speak well but you have to do it fast
297
these are unnatural situations i think but i don't think they're really measuring fluency
298
but anyway that's what they do so you have to just practice so
299
when you're practicing for something like the TOEFL use a timer get used to doing it it's an it's unnatural
300
but you know sometimes you need those tests you just have
301
to perform for the test i i don't like it but it's just sometimes necessary
302
being invited to Tajikistan thank you yes i would in morocco Now here's interesting.
303
Karamat says, we can write easily but can't speak.
304
Now that is interesting because a lot of people it's the opposite.
305
How can we solve this problem?
306
I think that's actually great, a good problem, in a way, because I think it shows that you have,
307
you know, how to communicate in English, you know how to create good sentences and correct sentences, you know how to communicate your ideas well.
308
So probably it's a speed issue, right?
309
And emotional again.
310
It means you have the ability, but maybe the hard part for you with speaking is you feel the pressure to do it quickly, get the words.
311
The other problem might be that you've been reading a lot, and so you're making the sounds is a little difficult.
312
So my first suggestion, like always, would be lots and lots of listening.
313
So you get used to the sounds, get used to the verbal language, right? the audio of the language instead of with your eyes with your ears using your ears
314
um the second thing you could do is read aloud you
315
know write something since you feel very confident with your writing write something out
316
and then read it out loud in a strong voice you can record yourself reading even
317
and then listen to it see how it sounds little things like
318
that should should be enough for you i mean most people
319
i usually i get the opposite question i can speak well i'm fluent
320
but my writing's terrible what should i do because writing uh the challenge of writing is it's very very um
321
very you have to be perfect this is the problem with
322
writing okay with speaking you can be very casual you know
323
you can make lots of grammar mistakes in fact you know
324
as native speakers we do it all the time it's no
325
big deal um we'll say i speak fast it's not exactly correct you know We will use adjectives instead of adverbs,
326
and we use short little sentences that are not complete sentences.
327
We do all kinds of things when we speak that are perfectly acceptable, but that are not acceptable with writing.
328
With writing, the rules are much more strict.
329
So you should feel good that you're a good writer.
330
That's great.
331
You just have to get a little practice, get your mouth used to you know getting it out your brain
332
and your mouth used to getting it out i think you're gonna be fine
333
okay people invite nepal that's another one of my favorite countries
334
being invited to nepal i'd love to i've been to nepal two times
335
and i i love nepal i love nepal beautiful beautiful the The mountains, incredible.
336
Really.
337
If you have a chance, visit Nepal.
338
They should sponsor me, the Nepal tourist, whatever department sponsor me i'll do ads for you
339
oh i okay so from our priest i i wrote
340
that my mother tongue is english i meant arabic yeah okay fair enough great
341
but i my answer is still basically the same for you Okay,
342
now here's a great thing.
343
I'm going to get, we're going to get very specific.
344
Arriba, Fatima.
345
I want to speak English, but I can't.
346
I make mistakes in helping verbs.
347
Doesn't matter.
348
Don't worry about these mistakes.
349
Okay, it's not a big deal.
350
It's not a big deal.
351
Okay, especially something like helping verbs.
352
Okay, just communicate.
353
Just communicate.
354
You make some mistakes.
355
No one's going to yell at you or anything.
356
Okay, nobody really cares and especially in speaking, as I said before, with writing, yes, it's kind of strict.
357
The rules are very tough with writing.
358
If you make mistakes in writing, it can be bad in certain situations.
359
It looks bad.
360
But in speaking, not so much.
361
In speaking, it's much more relaxed.
362
I don't know about the British.
363
The British have a reputation for being a little more strict about these things,
364
but North Americans, meaning Americans and Canadians, are very casual about these things.
365
I think the Australians are also quite casual about it.
366
Okay, we don't care.
367
We don't care if you make a grammar mistake.
368
We don't care.
369
Okay, so relax.
370
Of course, you want to improve.
371
I understand this, but don't let it stop you.
372
Don't let it stop you from communicating.
373
It's okay.
374
It's okay.
375
Like I said, I make grammar mistakes, sometimes mistakes.
376
every single native speaker does.
377
Every one.
378
We use, I wouldn't even call it mistakes
379
because it's just sort of like our natural casual language is to break many rules of grammar.
380
We do it a lot.
381
We do it all the time.
382
All the time we break rules of grammar in speaking.
383
It's like it's a very different kind of thing.
384
Okay?
385
It's much more loose and relaxed in speaking than in writing.
386
They don't teach you this in school, but it's true.
387
would you like to visit saudi arabia i will add it to my list sure
388
aj of arabia could make a movie okay well this is
389
a nice example andres escobar hi teacher glad to see you good to see you good to see you too.
390
Who would you have good advice?
391
Who has a good voice to imitate?
392
Like an actor or someone with a clear accent, a voice we can find a lot on the internet.
393
Do you have any candidates?
394
Well, you know, yeah, really any actor whose voice that you like,
395
you really should choose someone that you like.
396
You know, you like the sound of their voice
397
and probably too you like their style you know kind of their personality you know so um
398
okay i don't recommend sylvester stallone he's i like him he's
399
a good good actor he's a good writer he's a good
400
movie star he's not famous for being a great speaker okay
401
he would say this i'm sure a lot of criticism of him it's just the truth
402
but however but the point is though like
403
so sylvester stallone though he's you know he's a big kind of tough guy strong guy that's his reputation that's his style.
404
So if you're not like that, it will sound very weird if you're trying to pretend to be like, communicate like him, but that's not what, who you're like.
405
Or Clint Eastwood, here's another example, right?
406
So you try to, hey, go ahead, make my day, you know, that kind of, you know, if you're not a tough guy, then it'll sound a little weird.
407
If you are a tough guy, and you kind of like that, then maybe you could imitate Clint Eastwood.
408
But my point is, you need to really choose someone
409
that fits you you say i like the way i like
410
that person i like their style it kind of fits mine you can use me
411
if you like if you're more motivational
412
and enthusiastic you could use me you could use tony robbins
413
you could um there are lots of different you know motivational speakers you could use
414
if you're a little more relaxed
415
and you know intellectual maybe someone like steve jobs um
416
so really your choice just just be sure
417
that you know choose choose um people who have standard accents you know they're
418
so they're they're in lots of different movies they're you're they're fairly clear to understand
419
or if they're speakers you know there are lots of videos
420
and uh you know that's about it really and you like them
421
that's the key thing all right i'm going to do one more and then i think we're about done
422
hello i'm from thailand i know you've already been here yes i will return to thailand for sure
423
because it's one of my favorite places i'm from afghanistan brazil russia ukraine someone with a texas flag i'm from finland
424
okay here we go maybe living in texas
425
because the icon here is that's that's texas
426
and that's the flag of texas if you're watching on video
427
but john rons is from finland and i was wondering
428
if it's better to not try to sound too american does
429
it sound better to natives ear to just speak with your
430
own natural accent go it no i'd say try it you know
431
so many people are afraid to do this they feel like
432
i don't know maybe they'll sound weird maybe they'll they're like they're trying to make fun of the people
433
but i i think try to sound american go for it
434
why not you know maybe you'll never sound completely american that's okay
435
but as you the more you try to sound american the more clear your pronunciation will become to other Americans.
436
That's the nice thing about it.
437
So, I mean, this is exactly how you improve your pronunciation.
438
So, no, I think most Americans would like it if you sounded more American.
439
They would like it because they would understand you more easily.
440
So, Isaac, go ahead and try.
441
Try it.
442
Why not?
443
Don't worry.
444
You got to just think of it as a game, not something so serious just imagine you're an actor
445
and you're imitating them and you're pretending you know you can really exaggerate with it
446
and have fun with it don't make it too serious try
447
to sound as american as possible you can even joke about it sometimes
448
and really exaggerate if you want to have fun with it
449
so my advice would be the opposite go for it try to sound really really really american
450
or if you prefer british you know try it try to sound british if that's what you want or australian
451
All right, that's all.
452
I need to go and do some more work, so I hope you enjoyed this.
453

이 레슨에 대해
"Best Way For You To Speak English"으로 쉐도잉 기법을 사용해 영어를 연습합니다.
매일 15~30분 꾸준히 연습하면 IELTS 스피킹에 대한 자신감이 길러집니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
