1
A lot of elementary students believe that they just need more grammar, more vocabulary drills to reach intermediate level.
2
But sometimes that's exactly what keeps them stuck.
3
In this video, we'll go through five activities that really work for a lot of students.
4
They are the ones backed by language acquisition research and proven by real student success stories.
5
To walk you through these strategies, I invited one of our favorite LinguaTrip teachers, Anastasia.
6
She has a degree in linguistics, is fluent in five languages including Russian, English, Spanish, French, and Italian,
7
and has over a decade of experience helping students break through language learning plateaus.
8
These aren't complicated techniques.
9
They're practical daily habits that work with your brain's natural learning process.
10
Anastasia has used them herself when learning multiple languages
11
and has seen hundreds of students break through their plateau using these exact same methods.
12
Let's start with the most powerful language learning tool.
13
Over to you, Anastasia.
14
Hello everyone!
15
There are 5 main things you should do to quickly advance from the elementary to the intermediate level.
16
We'll discuss each one in detail in today's video.
17
The first and the most essential part of any language learning journey is reading.
18
I completely agree with Stephen Krashen, who often discusses the power of reading in language learning.
19
According to him, we acquire language through input.
20
And reading is the most powerful source of input.
21
And it's 100 % true.
22
In fact, reading for pleasure is one of the most effective ways to improve your vocabulary.
23
grammar, and writing.
24
Even more effective than formal instruction.
25
When you read books that interest you and are slightly above your level, you effortlessly learn new words and structures.
26
You begin to truly understand the language, how sentences are constructed, how words fit together, and what sounds natural.
27
I've experienced this firsthand while learning every language I speak, and I speak a few.
28
Most of the phrases, grammar patterns, and cool idiomatic expressions that I know and use come from books.
29
That's why the first question I ask every student who joins my one -on -one sessions is, are you reading anything in English?
30
According to research, students who read a lot, write better, and use a richer vocabulary,
31
spell words more accurately, develop a more intuitive sense of grammar, and perform better on standardized tests,
32
even without direct test preparation.
33
However, there are two important things to remember.
34
The book must be interesting to you, and you should understand at least 50 % of what you read.
35
When reading, don't translate every word you don't know.
36
At first, imagine that you can't translate any words.
37
Just try to read and understand as much as possible then check the meaning of words
38
that repeat and seem important
39
if you read regularly
40
you'll learn the language almost effortlessly to make things easier for you i've compiled a list of books
41
that are suitable for each level
42
and can help you improve your english skills these are just suggestions
43
so you don't have to follow them exactly but i try to choose the most interesting ones.
44
Start with Muhammad Ali by Bernard Smith.
45
It tells the story of Muhammad Ali, an American professional boxer and activist.
46
Although the story has been simplified, it's interesting for people of all ages and backgrounds.
47
It's written at the beginner level and is very easy to understand.
48
If you are at the elementary level, you might find it too simple but that's the goal
49
when you're just starting out you want to work with the easiest material possible
50
then read girl meets boy by derek strange it's another enjoyable
51
and easy to understand book after
52
that move on to elementary level books you can choose from the little prince the secret garden
53
and the hound of the baskervilles if you find them too easy limit yourself to reading one book.
54
If you struggle, read all of them.
55
Next, proceed to the intermediate level.
56
My absolute favorite and my students' favorite too is Meet Me in Istanbul.
57
by Richard Chisholm.
58
It's an engaging, light -hearted detective story that really pulls you in.
59
It's also full of useful travel vocabulary and everyday words that every student should know.
60
It's simple enough that you won't feel like you're making a big jump from the A2 to the B1 level.
61
After finishing it, move straight to the B2 level adaptation of Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier.
62
It may feel challenging at first, but after a couple of chapters, you'll be completely absorbed by the plot.
63
The story is more intense and full of drama and romance than Meet Me in Istanbul.
64
Whether or not you've seen the movie, you'll find it fascinating.
65
Next, you can move on to a few C1 books.
66
You can choose from The Notebook, The Hobbit, and Jane Eyre.
67
Jane Eyre is one of my personal favorites.
68
However, if you're still unsure about reading complex texts, start with The Notebook.
69
Finally, feel free to try unadapted books that haven't been edited for easier understanding.
70
At first, it's better to choose detective or love stories because they're usually simple to follow.
71
I'll list all the books in the description below, so you can download the ones you like and start reading.
72
Make sure to read out loud for at least 5 minutes a day, because it will help improve your fluency.
73
Let's do a small challenge to prove that reading really works.
74
In the comments below, write the name of the book you've chosen to read.
75
Then share updates about how your English is improving after reading for a few days, a week, two weeks, three weeks, and one month.
76
Even if you don't think you enjoy reading, give it a try.
77
All of my students who started reading said they didn't have time at first,
78
but later became interested and began reading more even in their native language.
79
One of my current students is at the pre -intermediate level, and while reading
80
Meet Me in Istanbul, she told me she caught herself feeling like she didn't even remember whether she was reading in English
81
or in her mother tongue.
82
That's the exact feeling you want to achieve when you forget
83
that you're studying a language and start using it naturally without thinking.
84
I'll be waiting for your comments about the book you've chosen.
85
In the meantime, let's move on to the second activity.
86
Are you enjoying how Anastasia explains as much as I do?
87
If you're watching this and thinking it all sounds great, but you know that alone you won't do this and you need more guidance,
88
if you need a teacher and a group of people who are going to study alone with you, we've got something perfect for you.
89
It's called From Elementary to Intermediate, and here's just what makes it different.
90
In just seven weeks with 30 practical lessons, you'll build a truly solid foundation and finally feel confident in your English.
91
Yes, we cover all the essentials, articles, tenses, conditionals, passive voice, everyday vocabulary, phrasal verbs, and pronunciation.
92
But instead of old -fashioned textbook English, you get modern, real -life examples you'll actually use.
93
And instead of boring drills, you get a clear, step -by -step system with fun, engaging exercises that make even the toughest topics enjoyable.
94
The basic package gives you 3 -month access with all 30 lessons over 7 weeks,
95
lecture notes, homework, and monthly live Q &A sessions with Venya, our incredible teacher.
96
Now, if you're serious about improving, I advise you to go for the standard package.
97
Get everything in the basic, plus your homework checked by Venya Pak himself, access to a group chat with him,
98
and the challenge mode where you're paired with a steady buddy to complete tasks, climb the leaderboard, and win amazing prizes.
99
And here's the thing.
100
I recently asked what you guys find most challenging about learning English, and the answer was clear speaking.
101
Because let's be honest, you can't get fluent without actually speaking.
102
So in standard and pro packages, you get access to weekly speaking practice with native speakers and you'll be able to practice everything you learn.
103
Over 10 ,000 students have already transformed their English with this program.
104
So if you're at the A2 to B1 level and ready to finally break through that language barrier, reserve your spot now.
105
The link is in the description.
106
Activity number two, involves doing daily dictations.
107
What is a daily dictation?
108
It's a simple yet effective language learning exercise in
109
which you listen to short recordings every day and write down exactly what you hear.
110
I learned Italian this way and it was a game -changer.
111
This exercise doesn't just help you passively absorb English, it helps you start using it when you speak.
112
Here's how it works and why it's useful.
113
First, you listen to a short audio clip.
114
Maybe one or two sentences from a podcast, a short news clip, or a YouTube video,
115
and try to write down everything you hear.
116
Then you check what you wrote against the transcript or subtitles and correct your mistakes.
117
You can listen as many times as you need to catch all the words.
118
Some learners prefer to simply repeat after the speaker without writing anything down, which is also fine.
119
You can alternate between these two versions of the exercise.
120
One day write down what you hear, and the next day just repeat it aloud.
121
Here is the process.
122
First, listen and write down or repeat what you hear.
123
Second, check your text using the transcript.
124
And third, listen again while reading and focus on the speaker's pronunciation and rhythm.
125
Why is this helpful?
126
Daily dictation training sharpens several language skills at once.
127
First, it improves your listening comprehension.
128
If you practice regularly, you'll begin to notice small details such as prepositions, articles, and connected speech.
129
Second, it strengthens your spelling and grammar skills.
130
As you write, you have to think about how words are spelled in English.
131
And just like with the reading, you'll naturally pick up grammar structures without memorizing them.
132
Third, it makes your pronunciation better.
133
As you listen, you'll begin to notice how words are actually pronounced in real speech.
134
And of course, it helps you activate your speaking skills.
135
When you say new words and phrases out loud a few times, they become much easier to use in conversation later on.
136
Try doing this for just 5 or 10 minutes every day, and you'll see significant progress
137
you can find free dictation exercises on the daily dictation website start with the easy level
138
then progress to more difficult tasks one of the new toefl speaking tasks is actually quite similar to this exercise
139
you'll need to listen to and repeat seven sentences
140
within a limited time frame so if you're planning to take the toefl in the future
141
However, daily dictation practice will definitely come in handy.
142
That third activity is really good for improving your speaking skills and expanding your vocabulary.
143
It is organizing debates in English on any topic.
144
You can do this with a friend or family member who studies English.
145
Your language teacher, chat GPT, or even yourself, simply pick a topic.
146
For example, you could debate tea versus coffee and think of arguments to support your position.
147
If you're practicing alone, you'll have to defend both sides.
148
If you practice with a friend or teacher, you can switch roles.
149
First, defend the position you agree with.
150
Then, switch to the position you don't support.
151
It's really fun and helps you learn to generate ideas quickly and explain your position in English.
152
For example, I often find myself trying to convince my students that coffee is good even though I don't drink coffee myself.
153
The most important thing is to provide examples and details
154
and to imagine that you are in a real debate and you must outsmart your opponent.
155
You can carefully plan the topics of these debates or come up with the first thing you see.
156
For instance, while walking down the street, ask yourself, is it better to take the bus or walk somewhere?
157
Then engage in defending both sides one by one.
158
The fourth activity is another indispensable part of language learning.
159
It involves drilling verbs and tenses.
160
Ideally, you should practice each grammar topic you learn, but start by focusing on verbs because they are the key component of speech.
161
When you're in a conversation and need to quickly explain your position, one thing that often slows you down is choosing the right verb and tense.
162
To avoid that, practice with short, repetitive drills to make grammar automatic.
163
You can combine these drills with your reading sessions.
164
For example, while reading one book, practice using the present simple tense.
165
Come up with simple sentences about yourself and practice saying them.
166
For example, I like tennis.
167
I don't like tennis.
168
Do I like tennis?
169
Why do I like tennis?
170
Who likes tennis?
171
I read books every day.
172
I don't read books every day.
173
Do I read books every day?
174
Why do I read books every day?
175
Who reads books every day?
176
Try to do it as quickly as possible.
177
Then summarize the chapter you've read using the present simple tense.
178
When reading the next book, focus on the past simple tense.
179
Write down the most common verbs you come across and create similar drills in the past simple.
180
I went to work.
181
I didn't go to work.
182
Did I go to work?
183
Why did I go to work?
184
Who went to work?
185
Repeat this pattern with different verbs and sentences.
186
This kind of practice helps you use different verb forms and tenses automatically, so you can speak faster and more naturally.
187
To practice several tenses at once, read a book written in the past out loud, it, changing all the verbs to the present.
188
You can also do the opposite.
189
For example, Meet me in Istanbul begins with a chapter written in the present, and I usually ask my students to convert it to the past.
190
Pause the video now and try changing the paragraph to the past.
191
Then keep watching to check your work.
192
It was early morning on a sunny spring day in April.
193
Heathrow Airport, London was busy as usual.
194
Hundreds of people were arriving, leaving or waiting for planes.
195
In the departure lounge of Terminal 1, a man was sitting reading a newspaper.
196
He did not like airports.
197
There were too many people and he was always nervous when he flew.
198
He looked at his watch impatiently.
199
Then, he heard the announcement over the loudspeakers.
200
Once you can do this quickly and without hesitation, you've got it and can move on to a more difficult exercise.
201
Finally, the last activity is to create a 5 -minute monologue daily.
202
Every day, talk for 5 minutes about any topic.
203
It could be a book you've read, a movie you've watched, your plans for the day, or what you're doing at the moment.
204
The goal isn't perfection, but fluency and comfort.
205
Even if you're just starting out, speak.
206
Yes, you may speak slowly at first, with long pauses and hesitations, while trying to find the right words, but speak.
207
By speaking freely for a few minutes, every day, You will train your brain to form sentences quickly and express ideas without hesitation.
208
Over time, this daily habit will make your speech smoother and more confident.
209
I usually like to discuss what happened during the day and describe what I'm doing at the moment.
210
Of course, when I start learning a new language, such monologues feel incredibly slow and awkward.
211
This is especially painful for someone who is a fast speaker and is used to speaking quickly in different languages.
212
But you should still keep going.
213
Say something like, at the moment I'm walking to work.
214
Now I'm standing at the bus station waiting for the bus to arrive.
215
Today it's sunny, cloudy or overcast.
216
I have an important project at work.
217
I'm a bit nervous, but I think I'll manage.
218
Recently, I read a book about .
219
Just make sure you don't try to translate from your native language.
220
Simply forget about it and focus only on conveying your message.
221
This way, your brain will start thinking in the language you are learning.
222
These are the five activities that will help you transition from the elementary to the intermediate level.
223
Let me know in the comments which ones you liked and which ones you are already using.
224
Remember that consistency is key.
225
Even if you practice for just 5 or 10 minutes every day, you will eventually see great results.
226
Good luck, see you soon, bye!

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
