English fluency so I'm going to share some tips some phrases with you that you can use immediately to improve your English fluency for free 100% for free I'm also going to invite you to take the next step in your English fluency by joining my live English lesson program that is a paid program it's a six week long program called the rapid English method so you can learn more about that at go natural English calm / REM program the link is in the description so our first day we talked about pronunciation our second day phrasal verbs third day grammar fourth day conversation fifth days today fluency hello everyone I'm so happy to see you Camilo Winn so nice to see you hello hello hello I'm thrilled that you're here with us live so tell me where you are from I see Winn is from Vietnam I would love to see where you're all from so tell me where you're watching from your end from India and I have to see you and along from the Philippines wonderful Ricardo from Brazil okay let's get right into our lesson I'm sure you're all excited to improve your English fluency if you are ready to become fluent in English then comments all in the comments are you ready to get fluent yes then let's go so practice they say that practice makes perfect for anything you're learning for English or for learning any skill right a sports a hobby a class even your job there's a saying that goes practice makes perfect but I disagree because I don't think that our goal is to be perfect in English I think our goal is to be fluent there's a difference between being perfect and fluent being perfect means you never make mistakes you're 100% perfect you never ever hesitate or use the wrong word or you never say the wrong grammar structure that's perfection but in order to be fluent we have to make mistakes and be influenced to me means that you can express yourself with confidence and sometimes we make mistakes even fluent English speakers make mistakes and that's okay as long as we correct them each time and we don't continue to make the same mistake over and over right it's important to correct our mistakes of course yes so I say practice doesn't make perfect it makes confidence practice makes confidence and fluency thank you for your comments you are right elyda thank you so much so I want to help you practice that's why we're doing this five-day English fluency challenge because it's so important to make English practice a part of your daily life even 15 minutes or more can help you to develop your your fluency and your confidence okay so in order to improve your fluency I don't want you to get frustrated trying to practice everything in English we need to practice the most important points in English and the most important points in English are the ones that will help you to communicate with confidence to have conversations to speak with native speakers to express yourself exactly what you want to say without being misunderstood without having misunderstandings without feeling frustrated or confused or embarrassed so in order to do that I want you to use the go natural English method which I've been explaining to you over the last few days some of the things that I've told you are to immerse yourself in English to copy what you hear other people saying in real life in the same situations that you'll have in your future conversations to prepare your conversations in advance you can actually imagine the conversations that you are going to have or that you want to have you can guess what's happening in a conversation through the context you're smart you can probably figure out what's happening in a lot of different situations most importantly I want you to focus on the most important and practical points for your English learning that's why I'm here to guide you that's why you have go natural English to help you to see and to understand what are the most important points in English learning so English learning is not something that happens in only five days I wish that I could tell you that in our five days together that you can become fluent but English fluency takes hard work and it takes time but you can achieve fluency much faster if you learn in this proven and practical way so instead of focusing on memorizing all the grammar or memorizing all the vocabulary that ever we had that we have in English I want you to focus on the most important point and that's what I teach at go natural English I know for fluency one thing that we struggle with is hesitation whenever I ask you what is your biggest challenge in English a lot of English learners like you tell me hesitation when I try to speak English I just stop have you ever felt like this you can comment yes if you've ever felt like when you want to say something in English it's like well we have a of a phrase the cat's got your tongue which means your your you want to say something but you can't the cat got your tongue yes zakariya thank you for commenting absolutely we've all felt like this in languages that we're trying to learn so in English for you since you're learning English so in spite of hesitating I'm going to teach you a few phrases right now that you can use to speak immediately so you can use these phrases to buy time while you're thinking and you can use these phrases to enter in a conversation so you don't lose the chance to speak have you ever wanted to say something in a conversation but someone else jumps in who's a little faster than you and you lose your chance oh I don't like that feeling at all so these are phrases that you can use to have the chance to speak to have more time to think of what you're going to say and to enter in the conversations that you're taking part in so first of all you can use a attention-getting noise like hmm how easy is that you can repeat after me hmm this is a way to enter a conversation you can use another sound we often use um um you can repeat after me all how easy is this these are not even words it's just sounds that we use to enter a conversation you can build on this hmm let me think if you are responding to someone in a conversation you can say hmm let me think so if you're contributing your idea to a conversation or if someone asks you a question you can jump in and say please let me think go ahead and say this out loud right now no let me think very good if you are answering a question or you're giving your opinion you can also say um it's hard to say but and you can say your idea it's hard to say or it's difficult to say you're buying yourself time when you say this phrase and you're entering the conversation okay if someone says their opinion and you want to jump in the conversation after you could say hmm I think hmm I think or mmm that's a good point hmm or um that's a good point or someone asks you a question and you don't know how to answer it has this ever happened to you or someone asks you a question that's really difficult like tell me about yourself oh my gosh this is a difficult question to answer so you might say hmm that's a good question so you're actually starting to answer the question with these words but you're still thinking of your answer that's why I love using these phrases to give yourself more time to sink and to enter the conversation without losing your chance so try repeating after me hmm that's a good question excellent thank you for your comments - you guys are so sweet Musa thank you for your nice comments I appreciate you and that everyone is watching right now we've had over a thousand participants in the English fluency challenge and I'm so happy to see you guys here today okay Oh Elena I'm glad this is super useful so let me just review these phrases once more with you we have sounds like hmm and um and phrases like let me think or I think or hmm it's hard to say but I think so we can build these phrases on top of each other if someone asks you a question you can say that's a great question really a wonderful question what a fantastic question okay maybe that's a bit much but you get the idea you can you can use these phrases to buy yourself time if you really really really do not know what to say you can say that's a great question let me think about it and you can stop there you can add your answer you can stop there the person will understand that you don't know what to say and it's better than saying nothing right that's a good question let me think about it this is especially useful if you are negotiating with people if you have a business or you're doing business maybe you don't want to answer right away maybe you want time to think about a price or an offer you can use these phrases mmm that's a good question let me think about it or just let me think about your offer very good okay thank you for your comment and your questions here these are great so I want to tell you about some of those students who some of the English learners who I have been working with over the last few weeks in the previous rapid English method program there was a woman named tae-young from South Korea and she moved to the United States and with her family with her husband and her son her two sons were in school and she really wanted to improve her fluency to be able to be part of her new community in the United States to talk to her songs teachers to talk to her neighbors to make friends with other parents now how many of you are living in the United States is anyone living in the United States you can I don't know why I'm raising my hand I can't see if you raise your hand but you can type yes in the comments so we work together to build her confidence and to be able to talk with her community small talk is very important for making friends and a lot of English learners avoid small talks because we think because it's called small talk it's not really important but I can tell you small pot in conversation is super important so we worked a lot on that together and she she actually left a comment on the rapid English method page let me show you doo doo doo doo doo oh yeah she said I can flip the screen here sorry I want to show you I'll try to flip the screen so she said thank you so much for teaching me in providing the rapid English method pour the rapid English method course really helped me improve my English all the materials of the program teachers and colleagues were awesome I really enjoyed the course studying and talking with friends so I am really proud of her and I'm very happy that she could improve her English in the rapid English method program I also remember working with a wonderful businessman named Diallo from Mali a country in Africa and he wanted to improve his English fluency so that he didn't have to depend translators if you've ever listened to a translation and you know it's not accurate how frustrating is that or if you're waiting to get the information and you're falling behind everyone else because it's slow the translation can be holding you back so my student Diallo was such a motivated learner he improved his fluency very quickly and he has a very strong skill set in English now and he doesn't have to use translators or depend on interpreters anymore from French his native language to English he also left a nice video for for it well you guys can see it for me but it's also for everyone to see let me show you this is on the rapid English method program Diallo is over here on the left and you can watch a video that he made and see how much he's improved one thing he said was I would like to thank all my teachers on my international classmates and I strongly recommend you to get in on this coming rapid English method to try to improve and better your English so I thought that was really sweet I always love when my English learners leave a video like that and finally I remember I remember all my students but another one that I wanted to tell you about was Fabien from Argentina he was part of the first rapid English method program a few months ago starting in January and he loves to travel he was working in real estate in business for a long time and now he's retired but he loves to travel to the United States with his wife and they love to go see Broadway plays and I just love that now he can enjoy that using English so much more so I want to tell you today about the next step if you want to join my loud online English lesson program the but English method you can learn to see if it's a good fit for you I would highly suggest that you go to go natural English comm slash REM program the link is in the description it works because we focus on what you need for real English fluency just like our five day challenge we focus on the
