1
Hey guys, welcome to Lingua Marina and welcome to another class.
2
This class is going to be motivational because I know how it feels
3
when you're learning something like English and you're learning and learning and sometimes you catch yourself thinking, why am I even doing this?
4
How is it gonna make my life better?
5
Because it's been years since I started and I don't know where I'm going.
6
So, this video is about being burned out during your studying process and I'm gonna teach you,
7
I'm gonna give you some advice on how to make it fun, so if you're interested, continue watching this video.
8
First of all, the thing that I keep repeating over and over again, English is your instrument.
9
Thanks to English, I moved to the United States, to Silicon Valley.
10
I started a company helping people learn languages while studying abroad.
11
I traveled the world.
12
I think I've been to over 20 or maybe 30 countries.
13
I've met a lot of amazing people.
14
I've started this YouTube channel.
15
I've started my Silicon Valley Girl channel.
16
This is all thanks to English and I'm able to live in the US as
17
if I was born here because US is very international and this is all thanks to English.
18
Back in Russia when I was sitting in our room in a shared apartment, I was like I was watching Disney movies.
19
I was watching cartoons from the US
20
and I thought this is the dream life and my granddad back then told me that
21
Marina your only way to get your dream life is to learn English no matter what it takes
22
you have to learn English
23
when I started learning I never thought of it as of you know grammar
24
and tenses and articles I always thought of it this is the thing
25
that is going to get me my dream life
26
this is my instrument you don't necessarily have to want to move to the US
27
or an English speaking country though I know it's a dream for a lot of people,
28
even like to have some work experience here and come back home.
29
But what I want you to know is that English is your instrument no matter what you do.
30
Like if you're a photographer, you can take courses from Peter McKinnon, who's like one of the best photographers here in the world.
31
He's from Canada.
32
If you're into marketing, you can take a marketing course at Stanford
33
and become number one in your country or top in your country.
34
I have a friend whose whole strategy is she, you know, comes here to the US, she attends conferences on marketing,
35
and then she launches courses back in her own country.
36
And she makes a lot of money doing that.
37
So I want you to think of English as of an instrument that's going to get you to your dream life.
38
Perspective changes everything.
39
Once you have this perspective, it's going to be a lot easier for you to learn things.
40
Now let's move on to some practical advice
41
but mindset is super important it just changes everything once
42
you go from like i'm learning grammar to you know
43
i'm learning how to use this amazing instrument
44
that's going to get me my dream life that's a completely different story another great way to make studying fun
45
and this is something i did
46
when i was back in russia i used to call hotels different places
47
that i dreamed of and i just talked to customer support
48
and this is something you can do as well Yola app is sponsoring this video
49
and they are letting you make affordable international calls.
50
You can make phone calls to landline and mobile phones.
51
And what I want you to do, I want you to install this app.
52
Use my promo code LINGUA MARINA to get a special bonus.
53
And I want you to call a place that you dream of visiting.
54
Like maybe it's
55
Universal Studios in Los Angeles.
56
Maybe it's a bank on Wall Street in New York.
57
Maybe it's Buckingham Palace in England and I want you to call them and practice your English.
58
This is something fun and challenging because you know when we're writing something, when we're recording ourselves, we have time to stop and google something.
59
When you're talking to a real person, that's a completely different experience.
60
So I want you to call them
61
and tell them like how much does it cost to come and visit you with my family of three?
62
How much is the ticket?
63
Or I really want to work where you are right now, how did you get the job?
64
Like talk to people, their customer support.
65
They have to be nice.
66
They have to talk to you even if they don't want to because there is a manager listening to their calls.
67
And this is one of the most amazing ways for you to practice English.
68
Install Yola app and a promo code Lingomarina and call your favorite place in the world and talk to their customer support.
69
And by the way, there is another thing I like about Yola app.
70
In the US, we get a lot of spam calls
71
and spam calls would always come from a phone number
72
that would say no caller ID and I normally don't pick up those calls
73
but when you're calling through Yola app the person
74
that you're calling would actually see your phone number which would make him or her more likely to pick up your call.
75
Yola app.
76
The link is down below.
77
Now let me give you some practical advice.
78
Whenever I'm filming a video like you see I have this new t -shirt
79
you know I make at least three videos a week sometimes more because I have my courses.
80
And yes, I also get fatigue of making videos, and this is my dream job.
81
So what I do is I buy myself a new t -shirt.
82
I buy myself something nice to wear.
83
Maybe I think of a new hairstyle.
84
You know, I have these lights back here, and I can change lights.
85
It feels like something new, and I want you to have something new or something that you really like in your studying process.
86
When I was at the university, I really liked beautiful stationery so i had all different colors of pens
87
and markers and highlighters
88
and i invested some money though i didn't have a lot into buying some nice stationery
89
because this makes your process more enjoyable and these days i don't know
90
if you guys like writing i actually switched to ipad
91
and i have an ipad with a pencil
92
and they've been around for quite a while
93
and i think you can buy a used one
94
and just just try this amazing feeling when you're writing with a pencil on an ipad this
95
This would bring your studying to the next level, and I know a lot of you cannot afford it,
96
but start with at least a beautiful marker.
97
Or take a look at your desk, maybe add a plant.
98
Add something that would make your process more enjoyable.
99
Now, I'm getting super philosophical here, but there is another very important thought that I wanted to share with you.
100
When we travel, we do so many things.
101
Like when I remember myself coming to London for the first time, I would do
102
Big Ben, the Tower Bridge, Oxford Street, Buckingham Palace, everything in a day because I had so much energy.
103
Why do we have so much energy when we travel?
104
First of all, we know that it's going to end soon, two weeks and then we're back home.
105
Second, everything is new and when everything is new, our brain gets excited.
106
So I want you to have something new when you study.
107
We talked about getting beautiful stationery, we talked about maybe getting an iPad if you have resources for it,
108
but try something else try studying in a new place there are a lot of free libraries
109
when i studied at the university of dresden i would go to the library almost every other day just
110
because i was so tired of my dorm
111
and i would go to the library and work there
112
and the library was huge we had so many rooms
113
and i would change floors i would go to different locations
114
when it's warm outside i studied outside which is sometimes challenging
115
but still it just brings something new and brings you something to look forward to.
116
So I want you to have this sense of travel when you study.
117
Because you know, someday you're going to stop learning a language.
118
And I miss the time when I actually learned a language because I enjoyed the process.
119
But when you're in the moment when you're learning, you're like, Oh my god, this is getting so boring.
120
So I want you to get out of your room.
121
I want you to get out of your desk and study somewhere else and tag me on Instagram, Linguamarina.
122
Let me know that you are learning English in a new place.
123
Now let's talk about diffused and focus mode.
124
When you're studying, your brain is like, okay, I'm focused.
125
I am learning this rule.
126
I'm applying that.
127
I'm doing this exercise.
128
But we need diffuse mode.
129
Diffuse mode is when you're in a shower.
130
This is why a lot of people tell me
131
that their best ideas came to them when they were in the shower or you're walking or you're falling asleep.
132
Like this is when diffuse mode comes into work.
133
And when we're in the diffuse mode, our brain connects different things that we'll learn throughout the day.
134
So this is why when you're studying for the exam and you try to learn everything in two days,
135
you don't give your brain a chance to switch on diffuse mode, which means you're going to forget everything in a week.
136
Let's be honest with ourselves.
137
But if you're taking it slow, if you're giving yourself some rest, which is the best way to study,
138
your brain is switching this diffuse mode on and it helps you remember new vocabulary.
139
It helps you apply new words in your speech.
140
It helps you speak better English.
141
So don't forget to rest.
142
Another advice, again, super philosophical.
143
Challenge yourself by looking at other people.
144
I don't know about you guys.
145
I'm going to share something super personal.
146
When I look at other people, sometimes I get super angry with myself.
147
Oh, they're doing this.
148
They, you know, raised that much money for their startup.
149
They started this company or they're doing this, this and that.
150
It makes me angry at some point, but I try to talk to myself and tell myself like, Hey, Marina, this is actually a good thing.
151
That means that you're taking their lifestyle.
152
You're trying to kind of see whether it would suit you.
153
And the answer is yes, because you get angry because you don't have that lifestyle.
154
So I want you to do something similar.
155
Find someone who inspires you to learn English.
156
Find someone who's already reached their goal by using English and follow them every single day.
157
Don't make yourself feel too bad, but if you start every day by watching their stories, by watching a video from them,
158
and you'll be like, she is living my dream life because she learned English.
159
Oh my God, I need to learn even more today.
160
I do that to myself almost every single day, which might not be.. too healthy
161
but i just realized whenever i see a person having the lifestyle
162
that i have oh my god i get so angry
163
and i want to work so much that in some time i'm reaching kind of the same
164
heights
165
so advice for you follow people who make you angry another cool advice
166
there is a website called written kitten .com super funny like
167
if you're like cats and you need to write something in english
168
when you write like a hundred words they're gonna reward you with a picture of a kitten
169
and you can change the number of words depending on what you have to do
170
but just something visual that would be like oh
171
and you know don't forget to reward yourself i always do this
172
when okay i'm gonna do this for 20 minutes
173
and then i'm gonna have my coffee or if i do this this
174
and that i'm gonna celebrate by buying new jeans
175
or i'm gonna get myself some nice makeup
176
or i'm gonna get myself a new t -shirt like celebrate small wins with small purchases it is fine like super small
177
Even a coffee is a great reward in the middle of the day.
178
And the last but not the least, record yourself.
179
I've recently interviewed Shuriram Krishnan from India on my Silicon Valley Girl channel, and he's in Silicon Valley.
180
He's super successful.
181
And what he told me is something I want you to remember, is that he told me, find a way to share your passion online.
182
Like everyone is passionate about something.
183
I'm sure you're passionate about one thing, and you talk about it all the time.
184
This is something you love.
185
And if you find a way to share this passion, maybe through a YouTube video,
186
through a TikTok, through a podcast or written essay or Instagram post, do it in English.
187
That was it for me for today, guys.
188
I'm looking forward to seeing you tagging me when you're learning English in different funny locations.
189
Maybe you're, you know, in France, learning English in front of Eiffel Tower, or maybe you are in Argentina and,
190
you know, you're enjoying beautiful weather.
191
Tag me.
192
Looking forward to seeing you in my next videos.
193
Bye bye.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
