Hi, this is AJ and it's time for secret or rule number two for excellent English speaking.
2
Now this one I think is going to be your favorite.
3
I think this is going to be your favorite secret because most of our subscribers,
4
most of our students tell us this is the one they love, that they loved hearing this, that it set them free.
5
So what is it?
6
What is secret number two?
7
Secret number two is this.
8
Never again study grammar rules.
9
Woohoo!
10
You're finished with grammar.
11
No more.
12
Never study grammar rules.
13
Now, I know this may be a big surprise.
14
This is a surprise for a lot of people.
15
For a lot of our students, lot of our subscribers, a lot of our members, when they first hear this rule,
16
they're shocked, they're surprised, and they think, well, is that true?
17
Could that be possible?
18
Maybe you're feeling a little unsure about this particular secret or rule.
19
Well, that's natural.
20
The reason it seems shocking or surprising is that all your life that you have been learning English,
21
your teachers have been telling you, study grammar, study grammar, study grammar.
22
Grammar is the secret.
23
Grammar is the secret to English.
24
Grammar, grammar, grammar, grammar.
25
I don't know exactly when you started studying English.
26
Maybe in elementary school when you were young.
27
in middle school or high school when you were a bit older.
28
Maybe later than that.
29
But I'm sure that in school, your teachers told you grammar was the key.
30
Grammar was super important.
31
You had to study all these grammar rules.
32
You had to know the past and the past perfect
33
and the present and the present perfect and the present progressive and the future perfect progressive.
34
You had to know what all of that stuff was and how to do all of the changes to the verbs.
35
And you had to know possessives, of course.
36
And then there were all the prepositions.
37
Endless grammar.
38
You had to memorize all of these rules.
39
And probably most of your English classes were focused on these grammar rules.
40
And then taking tests about these grammar rules.
41
It doesn't work.
42
Stop doing it.
43
You're finished.
44
In our system, no grammar rules study.
45
Now, some people, when they hear this, they think, no, no, no, that's not right.
46
And they don't, they don't believe me.
47
So, I have only one question for you.
48
You have been learning these grammar rules for years and years and years.
49
My simple question is did it work?
50
Can you now speak English easily, quickly, and automatically?
51
Is your grammar correct when you speak or do you still make mistakes with simple grammar like the past tense.
52
I mean, if you're a fantastic, amazing English speaker, probably you don't need to watch this video.
53
But I'm guessing if you're watching this, it means you're not a great English speaker.
54
You do not have excellent English speaking.
55
And yet you know so much grammar.
56
I guarantee you know more grammar than I do.
57
Because I don't think about this stuff when I speak English.
58
I just use it automatically.
59
I don't need to think about the past tense or the present perfect or anything else.
60
It just comes out correctly, usually.
61
I make mistakes sometimes, like everyone, but normally it just comes out.
62
When you speak your own language, do you think about grammar rules?
63
Of course not.
64
See, here's the problem with grammar rules.
65
They cause you to think about English.
66
So you are always analyzing it.
67
Meaning you're always thinking about it all the time.
68
Now for writing, that's okay.
69
I mean even when I write in English, sometimes I might stop for a minute and think, oh wait wait, what's the grammar for that?
70
usually but sometimes maybe.
71
Why can I do that?
72
Why can you do that?
73
Well because of course with writing you have plenty of time.
74
There's no there's no pressure.
75
There's no speed.
76
You can write very very very slowly.
77
And then you can go and you can write the same thing again.
78
And then you can show it to somebody and say is this correct?
79
And they can say oh no you know change this.
80
And then you can write it again.
81
All of that is possible with writing.
82
So, you know, if you want to study grammar rules for writing, you know, okay.
83
But here's the problem.
84
For speaking, there is no time.
85
If I walk up to you and I say, hey, how's it going?
86
What did you do yesterday?
87
You have no time to be thinking about grammar.
88
Which tense is it and what do I say?
89
There's no time.
90
You need to answer immediately, instantly, automatically.
91
And when you speak, that grammar needs to be correct automatically.
92
You can't be thinking about it.
93
You can't be trying to remember some grammar rule.
94
No. If you are thinking about grammar rules, it causes you to speak slowly.
95
It causes you to hesitate and stop a lot.
96
And when you're listening to people, if you're thinking about grammar, you're not really hearing them very well.
97
It causes huge problems.
98
You have to stop studying grammar.
99
No more.
100
See, native speakers, meaning people who grow up learning English, we never study grammar.
101
I never studied grammar until high school.
102
When I was about 16 years old, we started studying some grammar, but it was just for writing.
103
It was just for academic writing.
104
for school kind of papers.
105
That's all.
106
But by then, I already used correct spoken grammar perfectly.
107
So how did I learn grammar as a child?
108
How does it happen?
109
Every American child learns to speak with good English grammar.
110
Most at least do.
111
How do they do it if they don't study grammar rules?
112
Well, we talked about it in secret number one.
113
First of all, they're learning it from phrases, natural phrases.
114
And there's a few other ways that they're learning grammar, which we'll talk about in some of our future secrets or rules.
115
But the point is, they are not studying grammar rules.
116
They do not get themselves confused with grammar rules.
117
If you're thinking about grammar rules, you're going to be confused.
118
It's going to hurt your speaking ability.
119
So you must stop now and never do it again.
120
In fact, here's what I want you to do.
121
Go grab all your grammar books, English grammar books, and put them on top of each other and then burn them.
122
Get a fire, put some gasoline on there and wha- and let the fire come up.
123
And if you want, you can dance around it, woohoo, and celebrate and smile and jump around because Because you are free of English grammar no more.
124
With our system, you will never study another grammar rule again.
125
I promise you.
126
And that should make you happy because I know that grammar rules cause a lot of pain, a lot of boredom, a lot of frustration.
127
Nobody likes them.
128
So just forget it.
129
So this is good news.
130
Today, secret number two, rule number two is great news.
131
Throw away your grammar books, burn them, have a party, celebrate, because you will never study grammar rules again.
132
And that is secret number two.
133
I'll see you again tomorrow for a very important secret.
134
It's also very simple, but very powerful.
135
Have a great day.

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.
