Learning a new language can be a challenge and English OMG, but If you’re wondering how to learn English faster then watching this video till the end

well, let me be clear I am not a teacher, I am not an expert in the English language but, I Can share a few incidents in my life or you can few mistakes in my life that you should not do if you watch my old videos I made a lot of mistakes but still I am trying to improve myself so wasting no more time lets get started,

lesson 1 — You don’t have to learn all the words

  • This is something I learned from my uncle, he told me if you want to learn any language you just have to learn 2000 to 5000 basic words and you can speak fluently I thought let’s try this and it works, focus on the most used words, focus on the words we use in daily life like — brush you can use much time like morning brush teeth, painting brush, etc.

lessons 2 — Don’t Be Afraid to Make Mistakes

  • Sometimes it can be difficult to put all those rules and words together into a simple sentence. Don’t let the fear of saying something wrong stop you from speaking at all. Even if you think you’re making a mistake, keep speaking anyway. Most of the time, people will understand what you’re trying to say, even if you make a mistake. Plus, the more you speak, the easier it gets, and the more quickly the right words will come to mind.

Lessons 3 — create scenarios

  • Think about why you’re learning English (e.g. to study abroad, travel, or for business). Now, think about the kinds of scenarios where you’ll use English. If you’re studying, you’ll likely be listening to long lectures and need to be able to follow the speaker and take notes in English. Whereas if you’re traveling, you’re more likely to need a range of phrases you’re comfortable speaking in different situations.
  • If you’ll be doing business over the phone, you’ll need to be able to listen to somebody on the phone (with no body language to help you) and respond appropriately.
  • Each of these situations is slightly different and means you should probably do more or less listening, reading, writing, and speaking practice.
  • If you’re a student going abroad, you could watch videos of online lectures or TEDTalks and take notes on the topics to practice that skill.
  • In short, try your best to replicate the situations you expect to find yourself in for more authentic skills practice.

Lesson 4- Get More out of Listening

  • When most students listen to a native English-speaker, they focus on understanding what all the words mean. This is definitely important, but there is a lot more you can learn from listening. Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you.” Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.
  • Easier said than done, right? When you listen to native English speakers, it can be hard to understand every single word that is spoken. They might use many words you don’t know, talk too fast or have a strong accent.

Lesson 5 — Use It or Lose It

  • There’s an expression in English: “Use it or lose it,” which basically means if you don’t practice an ability, you might forget it. This idea can be used to help you remember new English vocabulary. The best way to remember a new word is to use it right away so it will stay in your memory. When you learn a new word, try to say it in sentences a few times over the next week and you’ll never forget it.

Lesson 6 — use patterns.

  • There was a pattern in the English language just watch carefully
  • here are few sentences
  • We’d love to hear from you.”
  • “We’d love to have you over.”
  • We’d love to see you.”
  • We’d love to come to visit.”
  • These patterns will save you time and effort when speaking English and will help you use language in a more natural way later.

Lessons 7 — Engage with English

  • Watching TV shows in English is a great opportunity to dilute the boring lessons of learning grammar and learning new words. Watch the series in the original and hear the real ones — the live voices of the actors, this is a separate pleasure, not accessible to those who do not know the language at least at the elementary level. And curiosity and the desire to learn the continuation of the plot will push you to continue your studies.
