Hey guys, welcome to Lingua Marina.

In this video, I would love to go through a step-by-step plan on how

you can go from A to level of English to B to level of English.

And there is actually a huge gap between these two levels.

And in this video, we are going to try to assess your current level of English.

Of course, in order to make a formal assessment, you should take a language test. But

for the purpose of this video I want you to be able to see where you are right now

and I will give you a step-by-step plan on how to improve and become B2.

Quick background on me I was born

and raised in Russia spent 25 years in Russia then moved

to the US English is my second language German is my

third language Italian is my fourth language I speak German I

think right now it's a B1 B2 level it used to be c1

because i used to study in dresden i was there for a semester studying mathematics

and i also learned italian for two years i think i

stopped at a two level it was something like a hobby

but the thing is i've gone through the process of learning a language three times in my life

when it comes to a foreign language and four times in my life

when it comes to learning a language in general

so let's start watch this video up to the very end

because i will give you the whole schedule

that you can implement starting today

so first of all let's look at the six levels of

english language proficiency they are called a1 a2 b1 b2 c1 c2 a1 meaning starter beginner c2 meaning proficient master

and basically a1

and a2 are your basic levels c1 c2 are your proficient

levels this is according to cefr common european framework of reference

so in the u.s system we're actually talking about going from level two to level four

and they have names here so level two is a high beginner

and level four is high intermediate and of course

when we're talking about your level of english we're talking about

four aspects of the language we're talking about reading writing listening

and speaking now let's dive deeper into these two levels i'm gonna divide

my screen here so here you're a2 here b2

so at this level you know from 1500 words to 2000 words

if you want to go to b2 you need to know 3000 to 4000 words now

when it comes to listening at a2 level you're able to

understand people talking about family work i have a family of

four i have two kids emily is four lily is two

my main job is a youtube influencer i also run a company

that helps people learn languages it's called lingua trip we have amazing teachers there b2 personal

and professional conversations i've recently attended an ai conference where i

met a prominent investor his name is vinod kosla he is a co-founder of sign microsystems

and his prediction is that ai is going to replace most teachers

and doctors by 2028 and when he said

that i was kind of freaking out

so this is your example of a personal professional conversation

and you're also able to understand movies here how are you

doing with movies guys let me know down in the comments below by the way movies no subs no subtitles

if they are about everyday things right i'm not talking about

a documentary about nuclear weapons i'm talking about a day-to-day movie

so you should be good here but nuclear weapons

if it's on netflix maybe you're able to understand

that as well depending on how hard it is how are

we doing comment down below where you feel you are right now

and we're gonna continue this is not it

so we talked about vocabulary we talked about your listening skills

if you're a2 you're able to understand texts and simple letters

And a great example would be a bus schedule or a train schedule.

Here at B2, you're able to read newspapers and you're able to understand and read technical words.

Now here, when it comes to writing, you can write quick messages, postcards, happy birthday.

And you're also able to take notes in English.

Here, you're able to handle all kinds of writing even business

messages hello the investor here's an update on how our startup is doing we've been growing 20 month over month

and looking at an annual revenue of 10 million dollars we are about to raise our series b

and we have some prominent vc firms interested in the round

but we decided that we will let you know that we have some availability before we close the round.

This is something I would say B2C1 type of a business email if you are interested in Silicon Valley type of business,

VCs, etc. Now, when it comes to speaking, here we have simple conversations, talk about friends, and most importantly, give compliments.

It's my favorite way to practice English.

You just walk in the street in an English-speaking country, you say, nice jacket.

Oh my God, where'd you get your shoes?

Oh, I love your sweater.

Where'd you get it?

Very American.

Now, B2.

Conversations with native speakers and, very important, debates.

You can argue in English.

You can negotiate in English.

You can support your point of view in English.

When I was back in Russia, I took part in different, it was called Olympiads back then, but basically competing with others in how good our English was,

They would always ask us to participate in debates.

Now, when it comes to grammar, here, you know, adjectives and their comparative degrees.

Good, better, the best.

Bad, worse, the worst.

You know, tenses like past continuous or past progressive, you know, phrasal verbs.

You know how to use modal verbs like must, can, could, should, have to.

when I mention this doesn't mean that

if you take a test you make no mistakes the thing

is at a2 level you don't have to know all the phrasal verbs

but you have to have some foundation because you definitely start learning them

when you're at this level present perfect adverbs of frequency

frequently rarely etc and some other things and even zero

and first conditional are parts of a2 level zero inverse conditional

now of course at b2 you know lots of grammar future

perfect continuous piece of cake future perfect you got it mixed

conditionals you know them mixed conditionals all tenses you're using phrases like

if only i knew this wish you were here like all

of these grammatical structures are part of this level b2 now you're probably asking marina

100

so where's my study plan how do i get from a1 to b2

101

while watching this video you probably noticed

102

that some areas of language seem harder for you for example

103

when i was mentioning all of those mixed conditionals you're like ah yeah maybe you had a feeling

104

that you don't even know everything that you're supposed to know

105

when you're a2 and this is where you should pay some extra attention

106

and this is where if i were you i would start the learning journey

107

because when you're just starting out you have a lot of motivation

108

and you have all the energy to tackle the hardest things i'll tell you a story

109

when i was learning german my level was a2 i went

110

to germany stayed with a local family spoke german every single day

111

and of course my speaking skills became much better but

112

that also meant that i had to pay special attention to my grammar

113

because yes i was speaking german but my grammar just wasn't there

114

so when you start your learning journey start with the hardest thing

115

and don't let your ego pull you away from that trajectory

116

because sometimes your ego tells you oh but my language is sounds

117

so good uh let me just forget about grammar like who needs grammar

118

if I can speak the language because I made the same mistake

119

and then it was really hard for me to catch up so learn from my mistakes.

120

Step number two, find the time when you're the most productive.

121

Like for me that would be morning time.

122

When I wake up if I had a good night's sleep

123

that is not always the case because my daughter Lily is two years old and sometimes she wakes up at night.

124

So for example last night I didn't have enough sleep but that's fine.

125

But I know that morning is the best time for me because then I have lunch and then my energy goes down. And

126

if I need to accomplish a more complicated task the ideal

127

time for me is in the morning what really works for

128

me is blocking off a slot in my calendar like 10

129

a.m to 11 a.m marina is you know learning german learning

130

italian whatever then after you blocked the slot in your calendar you know

131

that every day you have like 20 minutes to learn english maybe an hour you pick your english learning style Of course,

132

I feel like the most convenient thing to do is to find a tutor who you like and learn with them.

133

Two problems here are sometimes they're expensive and number two

134

that doesn't allow you to be flexible and if you have a baby like you just can't plan anything.

135

Things happen all the time.

136

So the second option is to take an English language course.

137

For example, my company specializes in creating courses for English language learners.

138

We have

139

amazing teachers who are native speakers working for a company

140

and we create these courses all together

141

and we have a course called from elementary to intermediate where

142

every lesson is not a 60-minute class it's a pre-recorded video

143

and it lasts from 10 to maybe 20 to 25 minutes

144

which means that for example

145

if on Tuesdays you only have 20 minutes to learn English you can find a suitable lesson for

146

that day if there are some days

147

when you have more time We have additional tests that you can take to practice where you've just learned.

148

We have some tips on how you can work on your accent.

149

We have some practice tasks.

150

And of course, we cover all aspects of the language that you need to improve in order to become B2.

151

And I have recorded several motivational classes for that course that will help you boost your energy and motivation to learn English.

152

So if that's your case, if you want to take an online course to help you become intermediate in English, please feel free to click the link down below and join our course.

153

I would love to see you there.

154

Now the next way to learn English is to go to a language school, either in a country where the language is spoken or in your own country.

155

And the fourth method is solo learning when you have your textbooks, when you have your apps,

156

etc. So it really depends on what makes you the most productive and what helps you the most.

157

Now the final step here is your study plan.

158

And this is what we're going to work on right now.

159

So what needs to be included in your study plan vocabulary

160

aim for five to seven new words a day not more

161

because otherwise it wouldn't work study topics like family

162

and relationships appearance work music education transport houses environment travel sport holidays

163

and with every extra step

164

that you take in your language try to pay this extra attention to how native speakers pronounce certain words

165

and of course construct sentences with a new vocabulary.

166

Try to learn idioms.

167

Try to watch more movies and read more books.

168

Now, number two, your listening skills.

169

Listen to English every day.

170

It could be a podcast.

171

It could be an audio book.

172

Then summarize what you've just heard.

173

Try to tell a story to your imaginary friend about what you just heard.

174

Try to take notes.

175

Practice your note-taking skills.

176

You will need them in case you decide to take a test or study at an American or a British university.

177

Break down song lyrics from your favorite music artists.

178

And of course, watch English videos, YouTube, Netflix.

179

Start with subtitles and then try without them and see what happens.

180

Here are some ideas on what to watch for intermediate level.

181

Dead to me, Emily in Paris, Stranger Things, The Hunger Games, The Little Things, This Is Us, Seoul.

182

Now three, reading.

183

Read regularly.

184

I'm going to recommend some books in a moment.

185

Focus on comprehension.

186

Try to understand the main idea.

187

And gradually increase difficulty of what you're reading.

188

And also friendly advice, just don't push yourself.

189

If a book that you've selected is complicated and you're not enjoying it, you need to look up every single word, like every third word.

190

Stop right there.

191

Try something else.

192

Try another book that is easier.

193

everything has to be enjoyable you can learn just by constantly pushing yourself yes

194

that works from time to time but not all the time

195

so i'd say 10 to 20 percent in general in our

196

life 10 to 20 percent of the time we're pushing ourselves 80 we should enjoy ourselves so if

197

that is not the formula for your life maybe ask yourself

198

some questions am i doing the right thing why am i

199

not enjoying my day-to-day okay sometimes you are at this stage

200

of your life where you kind of have to push through like your university

201

or school and then you push through and then you decide whatever you want to do

202

um but yeah you have to be enjoying whatever you're doing books for the intermediate level

203

the perks of being a wallflower the book thief the girl with all the gifts about a boy

204

and there are a lot more just go to a bookstore

205

and see whatever catches your attention try the subtle Art of Not Giving a F-U Word by Mark Manson, one of my favorite books in the world.

206

Tim Ferriss, The 4-Hour Workweek.

207

I love that one.

208

They're kind of basic, so try.

209

I feel like you're gonna understand them.

210

Now, of course, work on your writing.

211

I know ChatGPT can write anything for you these days, but still work on your writing because you have to write your prompts for ChatGPT,

212

right ideally get feedback so if you're writing something ask chat gpt

213

if the text is correct if there are any grammar mistakes and practice different styles of writing like essays journaling

214

taking notes writing a story etc five of course speaking these

215

days you can speak to apps i used to talk to myself you can speak with apps

216

and they can give you feedback and of course focus on Grammar.

217

Key topics that you need to study.

218

Different ways to talk about the future.

219

Conditionals.

220

Our favorite topic, of course.

221

The I wish if only used two constructions.

222

Passive voice.

223

And focus on one grammar topic at a time.

224

And of course, the more resources you can get access to, the better.

225

We are working on an app for you, so hopefully I will be able to present something in one of my upcoming videos.

226

We're still testing it, better testing on smaller groups of our students, but this is something super exciting, and of course it's going to have AI components in it.

227

Now in your final step five is practice, practice, practice.

228

I'm going to write it three times because it's very important.

229

Anything you can do.

230

Switch your computer and phone settings to English.

231

Select a few days during the week when you consume content only in English.

232

Try to talk to your kids in English.

233

So that's it.

234

Thank you so much for watching this video up to the very end.

235

Here's the step-by-step plan on how you can improve.

236

Of course, I just covered the basics.

237

There are more aspects to becoming intermediate.

238

But if you take a comprehensive course, if you learn with a tutor, then of course you're going to cover everything that you need.

239

And I'm wishing you the best of luck with your language.

240

And hopefully my channel is helpful and motivates you on this journey.

241

Thank you so much and I'll see you very soon in my next videos.

242

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
