Hey, welcome to today's English lesson today.

I am going to teach you how to think and speak in English about any relationship.

Remember as an English learner,

your goal is to speak English fluently,

but this lesson will help you understand that fluency first starts in your mind.

I'm going to help you organize your thoughts and then actually say what you want to say.

Are you ready?

Well then I'm teacher Tiffany, let's jump right in.

So the first relationship we're going to learn about and think about is the relationship between friends.

Now I'm going to tell you a little bit about my friends by organizing my thoughts,

using the five W's for who I've said,

my friends from college for what acted together in a drama group.

When my sophomore, junior and senior year,

where at churches, high schools,

colleges, and other local events.

Now why we all had a passion for spreading God's word in a way that was fun,

engaging and impactful.

Now you see what just happened.

I want to tell you about the relationship I have with my friends,

but I first organized my thoughts using the five W's and you need to do the same thing.

So the thought process is done.

Now let's speak about the relationship I have with my friends.

So we're going to take that information

that we had from right here with the five W's and now we're going to go to speaking.

Here we go.

My college friends and I used to act together in a drama group.

We were in the drama group during our sophomore, junior, and senior years.

Our drama group was pretty popular.

So we would do plays at churches,

high schools, colleges, and other local events.

We all enjoyed acting in the drama group

because we had a passion for spreading God's word in a way that was fun,

engaging, and impactful.

Now that is a great English response.

That is a fluent English answer and I want you to be able to do the same.

Again, thinking first about the relationship using the five W's and then speaking.

Now within my answer, there were two new vocabulary words that I really want to explain to you very quickly.

The first one is engaging.

So repeat after me.

Engaging.

Excellent.

Last time, engaging.

Very good.

Now this word just means tending to draw favorable attention or interest.

Think about your favorite TV show or your favorite movie.

When you push play, you get really into it.

Someone may talk to you, say, yeah, yeah.

Okay.

That's fine.

I'm watching this movie because it's engaging.

Hopefully this English lesson is engaging.

All right.

This means holding your attention and our drama group had very, very engaging plays.

They were very interesting.

So again, engaging, excellent.

All right.

Now the next word is impactful after me, impactful, excellent.

Last time impactful.

Good job.

Now this word just means having a major impact or effect.

It means affecting you in a way that is powerful.

So think about the words,

your mother or your father say to you or said to you when you were younger,

those words really had an impact on you.

They affected you, right?

We say impactful and the plays that I did with my friends when I was in college were very impactful.

Makes sense, right?

Think about it.

I just organized my thoughts using the five W's

and now you have a good understanding of the relationship I had with my friends when I was in college.

Makes sense?

All right, now let's move on to the next relationship.

I mentioned parents.

I mentioned how your parents speak to you and the impact of their words.

So using the 5 W's thinking about the relationship.

First we have who?

My friend and his 6 year old son.

What?

He spends time reading to him.

When?

Every evening after work.

Where?

In their family room.

Why?

He wants to develop a strong bond with his son and teach him the importance of reading every single day.

Now again, we're still on step one.

We're just thinking and organizing our thoughts,

but you can already start to see

that we have enough information to properly speak about the relationship this guy has with his six year old son.

So using the information again,

the five W's from right here,

let's see how we can speak about this relationship.

Here we go.

My friend and his six year old son have a great relationship.

Even though my friend has a ton of responsibility at work,

he always makes a point to spend time reading to his son.

He usually reads to him every evening after he gets off from work.

My favorite reading spot is the living room.

My friend told me that he wants to develop a strong bond with his son

100

and teach him the importance of reading every single day.

101

What happened?

102

Because we did step one,

103

think, organizing our thoughts with the five W's,

104

we were able to provide a good and fluent English answer describing the relationship this guy has with his son,

105

a parent child relationship.

106

Now you will see that there are a few words and expressions that I want to explain to you.

107

So very quickly, a ton of after me,

108

a ton of good again,

109

last time a ton of excellent.

110

Now a ton of just means a lot of something,

111

a large amount of something.

112

So for example, I have some cords with me in my office and these cords help me connect some of my devices,

113

whether it be my cell phone or my computer or another electronic device to my computer or to a power source.

114

So I have a ton of cords in my office.

115

Again, a lot of cords.

116

Makes sense, right?

117

Okay, good.

118

Now let's go over the next one.

119

Make a point to.

120

In the answer, I said he always makes a point to spend time reading to his son.

121

Well, makes a point to just means to give one's attention to doing something to make sure that it happens.

122

For example, once a week on Sundays,

123

I have a video English lesson for you.

124

So I make a point to record,

125

organize my ideas and my thoughts and produce a lesson that will help you speak English fluently.

126

I make a point to record a video every week.

127

Makes sense, right?

128

All right, good.

129

Now the last one I want to explain is right here.

130

Spot.

131

In the answer, the response I said,

132

their favorite reading spot is the living room.

133

Spot just means a particular place or point.

134

So my favorite food spot,

135

my favorite reading spot, again,

136

just a place or point.

137

Real simple, right?

138

So again, spot.

139

Excellent.

140

Very good.

141

Now we've went over the relationship between friends

142

and the relationship between a parent and a child using the five W's for step one,

143

to think using the five W's and then we were able to do step two,

144

speak fluently about the relationship.

145

But what about the relationship you have with your coworkers?

146

Think about it.

147

You see them every day.

148

How can you talk about this relationship?

149

Well first we have to start with the five W's.

150

Who?

151

My coworkers and I.

152

What?

153

Discussed the new semester schedule.

154

Now I'll pause real quick.

155

I'm speaking about my coworkers when I used to work at a language Institute.

156

So we had different semesters,

157

different periods of time where we would teach the students,

158

different subjects, still English, but different sub topics under English.

159

So again, for me, what discussed the new semester schedule when every two months

160

where in the staff room at our Institute and why we had to decide who was going to teach,

161

which levels and what classes worked best with our personal responsibilities.

162

So again, step one, we've thought about it using the five W's who,

163

what, when, where, why we thought about the relationship I had with my coworkers.

164

You can do the exact same thing.

165

Five W's now using the information from the five W's again,

166

who, what, when, where, and why I can now do step two and speak about the relationship I had with my coworkers.

167

Here we go.

168

Here we go.

169

Every two months, my coworkers and I would come together to discuss the new semester schedule.

170

Our meetings were usually held in the staff room at our institute.

171

It was important for us to get together every two months

172

because we had to decide who was going to teach which levels and what classes worked best with our personal responsibilities.

173

I literally just provided you with the information that came from step one,

174

where I thought about the relationship using the five W's.

175

You see how simple it is to think and then speak in English?

176

I'm telling you, this formula will change your life and help you sound more like a native English speaker.

177

Now there is one expression that I want to explain to you.

178

It's worked best.

179

Let's see real quick.

180

Worked best.

181

All right, now work best.

182

This just means it's the better option between two options.

183

So there are two options you have,

184

but this one, this seems to work the best.

185

So like I said, what classes worked best with our personal responsibilities?

186

Did one teacher work better with children while another teacher worked better with adults?

187

We discussed those things.

188

So again, in English, we say work best.

189

Excellent.

190

Very good.

191

So again, the only thing you have to remember when you want to speak fluently

192

in English about a relationship is to first think using the five W's to organize your thoughts and then step two, speak.

193

That's right.

194

Use the information you organize and then speak about that relationship.

195

I really hope you enjoy today's lesson.

196

Don't forget to keep studying.

197

And I want to remind you also to get the app.

198

199

200

201

207

208

You still there?

209

You know what time it is.

210

It's story time.

211

Hey, I said it's story time.

212

All right.

213

Today's story, you know, in the lesson I was teaching you how to speak about relationships, Right?

214

So I want to tell you about one of my closest friends.

215

I mean, she is going to be in my wedding,

216

her and her husband.

217

Now, the first time I met her,

218

we were in South Korea and we were both missionary English teachers and we had started living together.

219

This was before she got married.

220

Her husband was there too,

221

but they were engaged at the time.

222

So he lived in a separate apartment and she stayed in the apartment that I was assigned to,

223

so she had her room and I had my room.

224

Now we didn't know each other.

225

Well, as you all know,

226

though, first I enjoy cooking.

227

Second, I am an early bird.

228

Maybe you don't know that I am an early bird.

229

I will wake up at 4.

230

AM with no problem at all.

231

4. AM wide-eyed, ready to get started with the day.

232

However, at eight o'clock at night, no, I'm tired.

233

I am tired.

234

My whole family is actually like that.

235

We're early birds.

236

So anyways, when we first moved in together.

237

We didn't know our styles.

238

We didn't know.

239

I didn't know if she was an early bird.

240

So anyways, when we first moved in together,

241

we didn't know our styles.

242

We didn't know, I didn't know if she was an early bird or if she was a night owl.

243

So we had to kind of get used to each other again.

244

She's one of my closest friends right now.

245

So we had first moved in with each other and at this time I was working and studying at the same time.

246

So I would normally get up very early in the morning to study

247

and spend the whole day on Sunday at a Starbucks.

248

But again, we were living together.

249

So we had our separate duties.

250

One week I'd clean the kitchen.

251

The next week she'd do the kitchen and we kind of alternated kitchen and the bathroom.

252

So this just happened to be my week to clean the kitchen.

253

But remember, I told you I was working and studying,

254

so I had to be gone all day.

255

But again, we had just met.

256

It had only been maybe a week or two that we've been living together.

257

So I did not want to leave the apartment without cleaning the kitchen.

258

I didn't want her to think that I wasn't doing my part.

259

So I went into the kitchen.

260

I think it was about six or 7.

261

AM.

262

It was early, but I was trying to wash the dishes quietly.

263

And then in the midst of washing,

264

I heard her in her room.

265

So I assumed, oh, she's an early bird like me because I thought she was awake and moving around in her room.

266

So I started cleaning the kitchen normally.

267

I mean, pots were hitting each other again.

268

I thought she was awake.

269

I thought she was also an early bird.

270

So I'm watching the dishes happy that I'm doing my part before I had to leave to go study.

271

So I'm watching the dishes and the door opens.

272

So I'm thinking, she's like,

273

yes, Tiffany is an early bird too.

274

Let's have a conversation.

275

So I'm wiping one of the dishes and I turn around to look to her and say, good morning.

276

And when I turned around,

277

it was like, uh, a breeze,

278

a cool breeze that was not welcomed hit me.

279

Like a cold wind.

280

It was like ice.

281

And I looked at her and she just glared at me.

282

Now I, again, I'm happy all the time.

283

So I said, Hey, good morning.

284

She didn't say anything.

285

She just looked at me nostrils flaring.

286

I said, this is not what I expected.

287

Again, I'm holding the dish, looking at her.

288

The situation is really awkward.

289

She is wrapped up in a blanket.

290

I said, okay, maybe she's cold.

291

It was the summertime though.

292

She just glared at me.

293

Remember I said, good morning.

294

And she did not respond and she proceeded to shut her door.

295

She was still in the kitchen with me though.

296

She shut her bedroom door and she walked towards our front door.

297

The entire time she's staring at me glaring.

298

I said, maybe this is not what I expected.

299

And she opened the front door and slammed it.

300

I said, okay.

301

Not sure what just happened there.

302

Fast forward several months.

303

Now we are super close again.

304

We got, we never talked about what happened.

305

Several months later, we had gotten close.

306

There was another coworker and we were having,

307

I think a movie night and my roommate had stepped out for a second

308

and this coworker and I were talking and she was like,

309

girl, I'm glad y'all are close friends.

310

I said, yeah, you know, really cool.

311

She said, I'm not sure what happened in the beginning though.

312

I said, what do you mean?

313

And she said, our friend is not an early bird.

314

And that our friend, the one that was my roommate actually told her,

315

I don't know if I can be able to live with Tiffany.

316

She wakes up too early.

317

It's too loud.

318

And I can't believe she woke me up.

319

I had no idea that she had complained to the other coworker.

320

Now, again, this is months later.

321

So all of us are super close and we laughed about it,

322

but I never will forget that situation because I honestly,

323

honestly thought that she was in her room awake and moving around.

324

And so, yes, the other coworkers said,

325

no, Tiff, she was pretty mad.

326

So again, when she came back in the room,

327

I looked at her and I said, uh-huh.

328

So you were mad at me.

329

You didn't tell me.

330

And she burst out laughing because again,

331

we're super close now, but in the very beginning,

332

she didn't tell me how she really felt about that day.

333

So it's kind of an ongoing joke we have now.

334

They all know I'm an early bird and at night they stay up and I go to sleep.

335

So we're all very close again,

336

but I will never forget that situation.

337

So maybe you have a friend like that,

338

that maybe at the beginning of your friendship,

339

it was a little bit rocky.

340

It was, you weren't sure if you were going to make it.

341

Let us know in the comment section.

342

All right, guys, I really hope you enjoyed today's lesson.

343

Don't forget to think and then speak English fluently.

344

I'll catch you next time.

345

Have an awesome week.
