2
You're going to stop translating in your mind.
3
Instead, you'll start thinking in English and speaking English with confidence.
4
Are you ready?
5
Well then I'm teacher Tiffany.
6
Let's jump right in.
7
Tip number one, tip number one is to surround.
8
yourself. with English.
9
Let me break this down.
10
In other words, you need to immerse yourself in English speaking environments as much as possible.
11
This includes watching movies, listening to music and reading books in English.
12
The more you expose yourself, the easier it will be to start thinking in English.
13
Now, let me say something that will hopefully encourage you.
14
When I was teaching English in South Korea, I had thousands of students, but there was one student, one student that I will never ever forget.
15
This individual, he came into my class and when he started speaking to me, I literally wondered in my mind, why is he in my class?
16
That's how good his English was.
17
His pronunciation was great.
18
His thought process was amazing.
19
And the way he articulated his ideas blew me away.
20
So I asked him, I said, Have you ever lived abroad?
21
Did you ever study in America?
22
He said no. I've never lived abroad and I've never studied abroad.
23
So immediately I was curious, how are you able to speak English so well?
24
And you know what he told me?
25
This tip right here.
26
He immersed himself.
27
He surrounded himself with English, watching English movies, watching YouTube videos in English,
28
listening to English podcasts so much so that his English became amazing.
29
So if you're wondering, is this possible?
30
Yes.
31
It doesn't matter where you live.
32
There might not be any other English speaker around you.
33
Don't worry Remember this tip when you surround yourself with English,
34
your English will improve and your ability to think in English will also improve.
35
You got me?
36
Let's keep it moving.
37
Tip number two, tip number two is to speak.
38
Out loud.
39
Yes, you heard me speak out loud.
40
Listen closely.
41
It's important for you to practice speaking English out loud whenever you can.
42
For example, describe your environment.
43
Think of English words to describe various situations or simply talk to yourself.
44
In English, this will help you become more comfortable with thinking in English.
45
It will literally force you to organize your thoughts in English.
46
Before you speak, you have to think, right?
47
So it doesn't matter if you are living alone or
48
if you are living in a country where there's no one else around you while you're sitting there in your room,
49
in your kitchen, or maybe while you're at work, think about your activity. and speak about it.
50
Now, maybe if you're at work, your coworkers might look at you a little funny.
51
So try this when you're in an environment where it won't matter if you're speaking out loud, but it's important to articulate your thoughts.
52
It's important to say them out loud.
53
And when I say out loud, I don't mean.
54
Hey, my name is and how are you?
55
No!
56
Listen!
57
As your English teacher, remember, I believe in you and you need to believe in yourself.
58
When you believe in yourself, your shoulders go back.
59
You speak with more confidence, speak out loud and with confidence.
60
You have to believe in yourself.
61
So tip number two, speak out loud.
62
Makes sense right now, before we go on to tip number two,
63
I want to remind you that every week I send out tips that help English learners around the world improve their English.
64
So if you're not already getting my newsletter,
65
free newsletter via email, all you have to do is go to www .speakenglishwithtiffany .com forward slash newsletter.
66
I want to help you.
67
And if you'd like to get these free emails, please go to the link and join this email newsletter.
68
I want to help you even more.
69
All right.
70
So let's now go to tip number three.
71
Tip number three is to use your email.
72
Images use images instead of relying.
73
On translating words in your head, try to connect English words to their meanings by using actual images.
74
Yes.
75
Pictures.
76
You can also create flashcards in order to connect English words with their concepts.
77
Now I used this in my classroom all the time when I was teaching English in Korea.
78
I remember I was hired to help some, um, soldiers.
79
learn English and I used images and they absolutely loved it.
80
Why?
81
Because it was a fun way to learn English.
82
I'd show them a picture and then I'd ask them individually, Hey, Describe this picture.
83
Pick a word that describes this picture.
84
And they would start thinking of different words because there's something that happens when you use images,
85
it activates a different side of your brain and it makes the learning process more enjoyable.
86
So in order to start thinking in English, start using images and it will trigger certain things in your brain.
87
So no matter what word you say, or if you find a new word, that word will now moving forward, be connected to that image in your brain.
88
Makes sense, right?
89
Okay.
90
Let's move on to tip number four.
91
Tip number four is also an important one.
92
Think in English during everyday activities.
93
You see, when you're performing simple tasks like cooking or driving, it's important for you to try to think in English.
94
For example, describe the steps you are taking anticipate what you need to do next
95
and create simple English sentences to describe your daily activities.
96
I used to do this when I was in South Korea, studying Korean, whenever I had to take a taxi and the taxi was driving me from one destination,
97
from one location to another location.
98
I would, in my mind in Korean say, okay, he's about to turn left.
99
All right.
100
Now he's about to turn right.
101
Okay.
102
He's going to stop at this light.
103
But I was saying it in Korean.
104
Why to practice using Korean over and over again, and you can do the same thing.
105
Think in English during your everyday activities.
106
I'm pouring some water in my cup.
107
I'm calling my friend to tell them something.
108
Think in English and describe your everyday activities.
109
You'll be amazed how quickly you'll start thinking in English.
110
Make sense?
111
All right, here we go.
112
Let's go to tip number five.
113
Tip number five, another important one.
114
Tip number five is practice thinking in English during quiet moments.
115
You see, use the quiet moments of your day. to think in English.
116
This is a great tip because it will encourage you to be calm and when you think in English.
117
Let me break this down.
118
Thank you.
119
Normally when you get in a situation.
120
Where someone asks you a question in English, someone that's a native English speaker.
121
Or even another English learner that is maybe a little bit above you.
122
What happens?
123
You immediately feel a little nervous.
124
Maybe your palms start sweating and it seems like your mind goes blank, right?
125
Nervousness becomes attached to speaking English But now we are switching that emotion.
126
Tip number five again.
127
in your quiet moments, when you're calm,
128
When you're relaxed, Start thinking in English Think about your day Think about your friend, your family member, your spouse.
129
Describe that person, describe that situation.
130
Now a feeling of calmness, a feeling of relaxation will be attached to thinking in English.
131
Makes sense, right?
132
Speaking English.
133
Yes.
134
It's about learning words, expressions, but it's also about managing your emotions, staying calm.
135
There's an expression, cool, calm. and collected.
136
This is a tip that will help you starting today.
137
Let's move on to tip number six, tip number six.
138
Avoid using translation apps too much.
139
Notice I didn't say all together.
140
Translation apps are not bad, but don't use them too much.
141
Let me explain.
142
Translation apps can sometimes be helpful, but relying on them too much can hinder.
143
Your ability to think in English.
144
Instead, what I want you to do is to challenge yourself
145
to find alternative ways to express your thoughts in English without relying so much on translations.
146
Here's something interesting.
147
I was just teaching a class about two weeks ago.
148
And there was a new student that had joined our family and the student, I could tell they were looking for a specific word, but now I've spoke.
149
I've literally taught thousands upon thousands of students so I can read students quite well.
150
I know when it's important for me to help and
151
when it's important for me to simply wait and let them process it and let them figure it out.
152
It was that type of moment.
153
It was the moment where I needed to sit back and just listen and let her figure it out.
154
I could tell she wanted me to give her the word, but she could also tell by my facial expression
155
that I was simply going to wait and that I wanted her to figure it out.
156
So she didn't say the word she was looking for, but she found an alternative way, an alternate way of saying what she wanted to say.
157
And then I smiled.
158
This is what happens when you don't rely on translation apps too much.
159
When you don't rely on, Hey, let me stop and find the exact word.
160
It's okay.
161
Find other words in your database, in your brain that you can use to express yourself.
162
And then later on, look up that word, but in the moment.
163
It's okay.
164
Figure it out.
165
So again, tip number six, avoid using translation apps too much.
166
You don't want to rely on them too much.
167
Tip.
168
Number seven Use context clues.
169
We're talking about thinking in English.
170
So let me explain.
171
When you encounter unfamiliar words or expressions in English, don't get frustrated or nervous.
172
Remember we talked about being calm.
173
cool, calm, and collected.
174
Don't get frustrated or nervous.
175
Instead, try to understand their meaning based on the context in which they are used.
176
We're talking about thinking in English.
177
So look at the text, look at what the word, where the word is located and try to think about what's going on.
178
This will help you rely less on translations and focus more on understanding the overall message.
179
In other words, it will help you think,
180
more In English, remember these tips are going to help you transform your English.
181

187
I actually have tons of journals.
188
Now I have these journals sitting right here.
189
I use journals for many different aspects of my business, but I also use them for personal reasons.
190
I write down many things.
191
I write down things when I'm having my worship, studying the Bible.
192
I write down things that pop up into my head throughout the day.
193
When you keep a journal, you'll notice that you'll be able to start thinking in English.
194
Even more.
195
You see, start writing a journal in English on a regular basis.
196
For example, write about your thoughts, write about your feelings and your experiences,
197
this will help you practice thinking in English and improve your writing skills at the same time.
198
Remember it doesn't have to be long.
199
It's just getting into the habit of writing in your journal on a regular basis, forcing yourself to organize your thoughts,
200
to organize your ideas, to lay out you Using words, what you experienced throughout the day,
201
improving your ability to think in English.
202
Tip number nine, engage in conversations with native English speakers.
203
Now, before I break this down, I want to remind you of something.
204
Native English speakers, we're nice people.
205
Now there are always going to be some people that are not nice, but in general, we're nice.
206

248
I have decided...
249
Ayyyy!
250
You still there?
251
Ha ha!
252
You know what time it is.
253
It's story time.
254
Hey, I said it's story time.
255
All right.
256
So, I want to tell you this story and This is a story also about thinking.
257
So there's something very interesting about females, right?
258
We are very unique now guys.
259
We love you too, but there's something that females are able to do that.
260
I've noticed that guys, our brothers are not able to do.
261
Honestly, I haven't seen it happen ever, but maybe, maybe you're an exception to the rule.
262
Let me explain. So...
263
I was teaching this class in South Korea.
264
It was an early morning class, 6 :00 AM, very early.
265
And I had four students in the class, three gentlemen and one woman.
266
Now on this day, only two individuals came to class.
267
Sometimes, you know, it's a little early.
268
It's hard to get up in the morning.
269
So the female and one of the guys came to class.
270
Now I really enjoyed both of their company, right?
271
So on this day, I said, you know what?
272
Let's kind of just take it easy.
273
We took a break from the lesson and we just, Enjoyed having a conversation in English.
274
And during the conversation, the guy was telling us about his wife
275
and we were trying to explain to him how women think.
276
And he wasn't getting it.
277
I said, okay, I want us to stop really quickly and let's say his name was James.
278
Right?
279
I said, James, I want to show you something.
280
Now the woman was Korean, right?
281
I am African -American.
282
She was Korean.
283
I said, James, I want to show you something.
284
I said, women, we have a natural ability to know what each other is thinking.
285
No matter what, like we know what we're thinking.
286
He said, what do you mean?
287
He said, that's not possible.
288
I said, watch now we didn't plan this.
289
We didn't decide on the topic.
290
Nothing.
291
I said, James watch.
292
And I immediately turned my gaze to the woman.
293
I looked at her and I said nothing for about 10 seconds.
294
We just looked each other in the eye at the end of that 10 seconds.
295
I said.
296
Mm -hmm.
297
And I looked back at James, James was sitting there like, What just happened?
298
Then I asked the woman, tell me what I said.
299
And she said exactly what I was thinking.
300
Now, of course, James was in shock, but she and I, we just laughed.
301
Why?
302
Because as women, we already knew that we had this innate ability to understand each other,
303
to know what we were thinking without saying anything now.
304
Just as a sidebar, this is why to be very honest guys, We apologize.
305
We expect you guys to know what we're thinking because as women, we understand each other, right?
306
So guys, husbands, we understand.
307
Sometimes you get a little stressed because your wife's, they want you to know what they're thinking.
308
You just don't have that ability many times and it's okay.
309
So women as women, we have to do better.
310
We have to explain to our husbands and our spouse.
311
We have to explain to them when we're thinking, right?
312
So that's just, you know, truth.
313
All right.
314
So, but again, in that moment, he realized, oh my goodness, you guys actually understood each other.
315
And I laughed and she laughed as well, because again, it was not planned.
316
And I had always done it with American women because I'm an American, but I knew even though she was Korean, we would be able to understand each other even without saying words.
317
Honestly, I think it's a gift from God because I've seen it happen.
318
Another sidebar.
319
Whenever we play games and we have men against women, the women always win.
320
If it's anything dealing with like a mental game, the women win.
321
Not because the men aren't smart, extremely intelligent, but we as women have the ability to pass messages to each other without saying anything.
322
I don't know how it works.
323
I don't know what God did.
324
But it definitely happens, especially with my best friend from college.
325
Oh, my goodness.
326
We can be across the room, have a full conversation and never say.
327
a word.
328
So men, be careful.
329
But yes, so that's just an example of one of the amazing abilities that women have.
330
And gentlemen, we know you have amazing abilities too, but right now we're talking about the women.
331
I hope you guys enjoyed this story.
332
I hope you have an awesome week and I'll talk to you in the next lesson.

Sobre Esta Lição
Nesta lição, vamos ajudar você a parar de traduzir em sua cabeça e a começar a pensar em inglês. Você vai descobrir como se cercar do idioma e usar técnicas práticas para se sentir mais confortável ao falar. O foco principal é a imersão no inglês, que tornará a sua experiência de aprendizado mais eficaz e divertida. Ao final, você se sentirá mais confiante ao se comunicar em inglês, seja em casa ou em qualquer lugar.
Vocabulário e Frases-Chave
- Imersão: Cercar-se de inglês, como assistir a filmes e ouvir músicas no idioma.
- Falar em voz alta: Praticar a fala em inglês descrevendo o ambiente ou conversando consigo mesmo.
- Pronúncia: A forma como você articula as palavras é crucial para a sua comunicação.
- Ambiente: Criar um espaço ao seu redor que estimule o uso do inglês.
- Confiança: Aumentar sua segurança ao falar o idioma.
Dicas de Prática
Uma técnica eficaz que você pode aplicar é o shadowing em inglês. Isso significa repetir em voz alta o que você ouve em vídeos, como os do YouTube. Escolha um vídeo em inglês que você goste e que tenha um ritmo que você consiga acompanhar. Tente adotar o tom e a pronúncia do falante, imitando sua fala. Isso não só melhora sua pronúncia, mas também ajuda a organizar seus pensamentos em inglês.
Enquanto você pratica, mantenha o foco em como o falante se expressa. Por exemplo, siga suas pausas e a entonação. O shadowspeak pode ser especialmente útil em vídeos que falam de situações cotidianas, assim você aprende o vocabulário e as frases em um contexto prático.
Lembre-se de que não precisa de um professor ao seu lado. Mesmo que esteja sozinho ou em um lugar onde não haja falantes de inglês, você pode usar este shadowing site como uma ferramenta poderosa. Quanto mais você falar em inglês, mais natural será o processo de pensar no idioma.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
