Hello I’m E妹妹a from 妹妹mEnglish! In this video, we’re going to talk about four things that you can do every day to improve your English.
大师好,我是 E妹妹a,接待来到甘旨英语频道!在这个视频中,咱们将会商你天天均可以做四件事来晋升英语程度。
I think we can all agree that learning English or learning any language takes time and effort and dedication. But the most successful language learners, they find a way for their language to become a part of their daily life.
我感觉咱们应当都赞成学英语,或是学任何说话都必要时候、尽力和专注力的投入。可是最乐成的说话进修者总会找到一种方法,让说话成为糊口的一部门。
It just becomes a habit like brushing your teeth. If you want to improve, your English practice should become a daily habit.
它就酿成了像刷牙同样的习气同样。若是你想要晋升的话,你的英语操练就应当成为平常的习气。
To help you with this I’m going to share four things that you can and you should be doing every day to improve your English and yes, I am suggesting that you do all four things every day but they’re not huge tasks and we’re going to talk about how you can make them a bit of fun too so come check it out!
Before I share these four things that you should be doing every day, I want to thank our friends Lingoda who’ve partnered with us to bring you today’s lesson.
为了帮忙大师,我要给大师分享四件大师天天可以做,也是应当做的事变来晋升英语,固然了,我建议大师天天这四件事变都做,可是它们其实不是甚么很重的使命,咱们如今要会商一下若何让它们更有兴趣一点点,以是看一下吧!在我分享这四件你们天天都应当做的事变以前,我想感激一下咱们的朋侪 Lingoda,是他们的支撑才给你们带来了今天的课程。
In particular, I want to share how the Lingoda Language Sprint offers you daily English lessons plus up to a hundred percent refund on your lesson fees. Lingoda is an online language school.
特别是,我想要分享 Lingoda 说话冲刺跑是如作甚大师供给逐日英语课程,和百分之百退还你们的课程用度的。Lingoda 是在线说话黉舍。
You take classes with qualified native speaking teachers, class sizes are small and all of the learning materials are provided. Plus Lingoda are now Cambridge certified so you’ll get free access to the Cambridge online language test as well.
你和高质量的母语教员一块儿上课,班级容量很小,供给所有的进修质料。除此以外,Lingoda 具有剑桥认证,以是你也能够免费获得剑桥在线课程测试。
And in exciting news, the next Language Sprints are starting soon. The Super Sprint is the biggest challenge, thirty classes a month for three months.
使人冲动的动静是,下次说话冲刺跑顿时就起头了。超等短跑是最大的挑战,每个月三十节课程,连上三个月。
When I decide to do something, I like to go hard and that is exactly what the Super Sprint demands of you.
English classes every day for ninety days but here’s the thing, if you complete every one of those classes, Lingoda will give you your money back, a hundred percent of your class fees refunded or you can use the credits for even more English classes.
当我决议做某件事变的时辰,我喜好坚苦模式,那也是超等短跑对大师的请求。天天都上英语课程,连上九十天,不外事变是如许的,若是你完成为了每节课程的话,Lingoda 会返还你们的钱,百分之百返还你们的课程用度,或你们可使用这些额度进修更多的英语课程。
Now if that feels impossible for you, then you can choose to do the Regular Sprint, fifteen classes a month for three months. If you complete all of those classes, you’ll get a fifty percent refund.
若是你感受这对你而言不成能的话,那你便可以选择加入通例冲刺跑,每一个月加入十五节课程,连上三个月。若是你完成为了所有的课程的话,你便可以获得百分之五十的退款。
So are you up to the challenge? You can register for the Sprint promotion right now but registrations close on the 24th of March.
你筹备好迎接挑战了吗?你如今便可以注册冲刺跑勾当,可是注册三月二十四号就封闭了。
The link is in the description below and if you use this code JOIN1, you’ll get ten euros off your deposit. So the very first thing on my list is pronunciation.
链接鄙人面的描写区,若是你利用约请码JOIN1的话,押金便可以减十欧元。我的清单上的第一件事变是发音。
Yes, you should be practising your pronunciation every day.?And it’s not to try and get rid of your accent but to make it clear enough that others can comfortably understand you when you speak.
是的,你应当天天操练发音。其实不是试着去解脱你的口音,而是把音发清晰,让其别人在你措辞的时辰可以或许恬静地舆解你。
I can’t tell you the number of advanced English students I’ve had who’ve had amazing gra妹妹ar and vocabulary skills but so much trouble co妹妹unicating because their accent makes it quite challenging for others to understand them. So of course, all of this affects smooth, positive, comfortable conversation.
我不克不及奉告你我有几多英语程度很高的学生,他们的语法和辞汇超赞,可是在交换的时辰却有很大的坚苦,由于他们的口音致使他人理解他们是个很大的挑战。以是固然了,所有的这些城市影响到流畅、踊跃和恬静的交换。
And depending on where you learned English, your teacher may not have focused on pronunciation. It may not have been the priority at the time.
取决于你在哪里学的英语,你的教员可能其实不怎样存眷发音。它可能并不是一向是最优先的事变。
You see, if you learned English at school, your teacher’s main aim was probably to get you high marks in your exam.
Pronunciation was probably not their focus at that time but in the real world when you’re using English to speak with other people, your pronunciation, your fluency when you speak, it’s so incredibly important.
你看,若是你是在黉舍学英语的话,你的教员最重要的方针多是让你在测验中的高分。发音可能其实不是他们那时的重点,可是在现实糊口中,当你利用英语和他人措辞的时辰,你措辞时的发音和流畅度都很是很是首要。
Get into the habit of learning and using the correct pronunciation today because it’s going to save you lots of headaches and confusion down the track.
Plus, practising your pronunciation every day consistently, it’s gonna help you to make noticeable improvements in a short space of time.
今天养成进修和利用准确发音的习气,由于这将给你们免却门路上的痛楚和苍茫。除此以外,天天延续操练你们的发音,可以或许帮忙你们在短期内获得较着的前进。
So how can you start doing this? I reco妹妹end that you learn the IPA, the international phonetic alphabet.
那你该若何起头呢?我举荐你进修国际音标。
If you’ve never heard of it before or you don’t know a lot about it, then watch this lesson up here. But learning the IPA will allow you to correctly pronounce every single English word using the correct English sounds.
若是你以前从没有据说过,或是其实不怎样领会的话,那就看看这节课程吧。可是进修国际音标可以或许让你们准确地发出每一个英语单词的音。
Another great way to practise your pronunciation is with my imitation lessons so in these lessons, I help you to copy me and shadow me as I speak.
They’re really awesome, quick ten minute videos that you can practise with regularly so add them to a playlist and keep coming back to them and practise with them often.
此外一个很好地操练发音的方法是操纵我的仿照课程,在这些课程中,我帮忙大师在我措辞的时辰仿照我,随着我说。这些课程都是很棒的,很是快速地十分钟的短视频,大师可以有纪律地举行操练,以是把它们添加进播放列表中,时时时地归去看看,一块儿操练吧。
After you’ve practised a lesson for a few times make a recording of yourself and compare it to my voice. Try to identify some of the mistakes that you’re making with your pronunciation.
在你把一节课程操练了几回以后,那就给本身录个音,和我的声音比一下。试着去找出你发音方面的一些毛病。
I’ve added a link to my imitation lessons in the description and I’ll add one at the end of this video as well that you can check out. You can also simply read out loud to improve your pronunciation.
我在描写区里挂了我的仿照课程的链接,我也会在这个视频竣事的时辰放一下,如许你们便可以看一看了。你们也能够只是高声朗诵来晋升发音程度。
Doing this every day will help your mouth muscles to get working and creating English sounds and get more comfortable doing it.
It’s as simple as that and it doesn’t need to take you long just five or ten minutes a day is plenty.
天天都这么做会帮忙你们的嘴部肌肉一向事情,缔造英语发音,在说英语的时辰加倍轻松自若。就是这么简略,其实不怎样必要很长时候,天天五到十分钟就够了。
Just make sure you’re doing it consistently. You could even do it by singing English songs.
包管一向延续这么做就好。你乃至可以唱英文歌曲。
Create one opportunity to absorb English every day. To absorb is to take in information so you’re like a sponge soaking things up, taking in new ideas, new words, new ways of expressing yourself and you can do this in lots of different ways, so many ways.
缔造机遇天天都吸取一些英语。吸取的意思是消化信息,就像海绵同样把工具给吸进去,吸取新的思绪,新的辞汇,新的表达本身的方法,你们也能够以分歧的方法做这件事变。
Listening to a podcast or an audiobook, you could watch an English movie or any video on Youtube. Read a book or a blog post.
听播客或是电子书,你可以看英语片子或是任何油管上的视频。看书或是博客推送。
In fact, you probably want to mix this up during the week, right? To keep things interesting.
实在呢,你可能想要每周把这些事变夹杂起来做,对吧?让事变有趣一点。
A podcast on Monday. Read a book on Tuesday.
周一看播客。周二看本书。
Whatever floats your boat. Now again, this doesn’t have to be a huge time-consuming task but it’s worth spending some time searching for the right type of content.
你随便。一样的,这其实不是很是耗时候的使命,可是花时候找准确类型的内容倒是很是首要的。
It must be stuff that is interesting for you. If you’re into football or you love makeup tutorials or romance novels or soap operas.
必需是你感觉有趣的事变。若是你喜好足球或是喜好化装教程,或是恋爱小说,或是番笕剧的话。
If you love the idea of sailing around the world, I’ve been watching a YouTube channel called Sailing La Vagabonde and they vlog about their life
sailing around the world on a yacht. In fact, if you’re interested, I’ve added the link in the description below.
若是你喜好乘风帆周游世界的话,我一向在看一个油管频道叫做 Sailing La Vagabonde,他们会发他们乘风帆周游世界的视频播客。实在呢,若是你感乐趣的话,我已把链接放鄙人方的描写区了。
But the point is, find something that interests you and excites you because you need to look forward to doing it every single day. It shouldn’t feel like you’re doing English practice.
可是重点是,要找到你感乐趣的工具,让你会感触冲动的工具,由于你必要天天都等待去做这件事变。不该该感受你正在举行英语操练。
So I have two little reco妹妹endations here. Firstly, you need to find the time that you’re going to do it and declare it.
以是我有两个小小的举荐。起首,你必要找你会用来做这件事变的时候,而且表白立场。
That is your daily time to absorb English so it could be on the bus on your way to work or while you’re eating breakfast. I’ve always found that attaching an activity to the task helps you to make it part of your routine.
这是你逐日吸取英语的时候,以是可以在你上班事情的公交车上,或是你吃早饭的时候。我老是会发明将一个勾当和使命相接洽的话,可以或许帮忙你成为你日经常规的一部门。
And while you’re doing it, just keep a notebook handy so that you can write down expressions or new words which you can look up and check later on. Simple as that!
当你在做这件事变的时辰,身旁放个条记本,如许你就可以记下来一些表达或是新的辞汇,后面的时候便可以归去看看。就是这么简略!
Writing every day has some amazing benefits. But before I talk about that I want to make it clear, I’m not talking about writing an essay, okay?
逐日举行写作好处多多。可是在我说以前,我想要声明一下,我说的可不是写论文,好吗?
I’m just talking about writing a few thoughts or a few ideas down. It only has to take a few minutes and nobody ever has to see it.
我说的只是把几个设法啊给写下来。只必要花几分钟就好了,并且没人会去看的。
It’s just for you. So there’s a few reasons why writing every day is an excellent habit to get into.
只是给你本身的。以是有如下几个原由于甚么逐日写作是一个很好的习气可以对峙。
It helps your vocabulary to stick. Writing is one of the best ways to recall new words and expressions that you’ve come across.
它可使你紧紧记着辞汇。写作是回想你碰到的新单词和表达最好方法之一。
When so many of my students have asked me “What is the best way to remember vocabulary?” this is my reco妹妹endation.
As you’re reading or watching TV shows or books, you come across new ideas and words and you write them down but then you start to use them yourself.
当不少我的学生问:“最佳的记单词的方法是甚么?”的时辰,这是我的举荐。当你在浏览或是看电视的时辰,你会碰到一些新的设法和单词,然后你写下了他们,可是然后呢你起头本身利用这些单词了。
You think of sentences and your own ideas about how to use these words. That way you’re producing your own sentences rather than just listening to other people’s and it helps it just stick in your mind.
你思虑本身的句子,思虑若何去利用这些单词。经由过程那种方法,你是在造本身的句子,而不只是听他人措辞,这可以或许帮忙你紧紧记着。
And then you can improve it. Once you’ve written something, you can do so much with it.
然后你便可以晋升了。一旦你写了甚么工具的话,便可以在上面大做文章了。
You can copy/paste it into a gra妹妹ar checker like Gra妹妹arly to help you to identify some of the errors that you’re making. So Gra妹妹arly is free to use, I’ve included a link in the description below because it’s awesome.
你可以把它复制粘贴进语法查抄软件内里,好比说 Gra妹妹arly,帮忙你们看看有无犯甚么毛病。Gra妹妹arly 是免费利用的,我在描写区放了链接,由于它真的超等赞。
It helps you to see the mistakes that you’re making like maybe you’re using the wrong preposition or you don’t need to use an article when you’ve written one.
So I really reco妹妹end that you take a look to help you see and realise the mistakes that you’re making and you can also review your own work.
它帮忙你看一下你犯了甚么毛病,好比说你可能利用了毛病的介词,或是不必要利用冠词的时辰却利用了。我真的很举荐大师看一下,帮忙你们意想到你们犯的毛病,也能够回首一下本身的作品。
Once you’ve finished writing, leave it for a few days or a few weeks, come back to it. See if you can make any improvements or if you can use a thesaurus to look up synonyms and replace some of the words with more advanced ones.
你完成写作以后,先把它放个几天或是几周,然后再归去查抄。看看你是否是能有可以晋升的处所,或是能不克不及利用同义辞书寻觅同义词,然后把内里的一些辞汇用更高档的替换一下。
These are just a few ideas but getting into a daily writing practice creates so many opportunities for you to apply what you’ve learned or what you’ve seen or what you’ve experienced in English and then review it and improve it. Lastly, join an English discussion about stuff that interests you.
这只是一些设法罢了,可是养成逐日写作的习气可以或许为你缔造不少机遇,利用你所进修到的,你所看到的,或是你体验到的英语,然后回首它,晋升它。最后呢,加入关于你关切的事变的英文会商。
Now this sounds serious and may be complicated but it’s not, I promise. I’m just talking about joining an active group or online co妹妹unity where there are people interacting.
这听起来有点严厉,可能也有点繁杂,但实在其实不是,我包管。我说的是加入一个活泼的群体或是线上社群,大师可以在内里交换互动。
They’re sharing their ideas, they’re giving opinions and you’re able to respond. So you can co妹妹ent and actually be part of the discussion as it happens.
他们会分享本身的设法,他们会说出本身的定见,你可以举行回应。你可以评论,成为会商的一部门。
Now this could be in person but it can easily be as part of an online co妹妹unity.
Plus that makes it, you know, even easier to create a daily habit around it because it’s simply about checking in and seeing what everyone else has been talking about and giving your two cents worth.
这可能有点点私家,可是成为线上社群的一部门可所以一件很轻易的事变。除此以外,那实在更易培育成逐日的乐趣快乐喜爱,由于不外就是看看大师在说甚么,说说本身的定见而已。
So how do you find these places? It takes a little work.
那你该怎样找这些处所呢?必要花点时候呢。
You can’t just Google ‘cooking’ and join the first group that you find. Join a few different ones, see which one is the most active, which one has really interesting discussions happening in it.
你不克不及只是google一下“烹调”然后参加你找到的第一个群体。加入一些分歧的小组,看看哪个是最具吸引力的,哪一个内里的会商最有趣。
Sometimes nothing gets posted in these groups for days and that’s not really helpful for you, right? So I would start by writing down your top five hobbies or interests.
有时辰这个小组内里可能不少天都没人措辞了,那实在对你是颇有帮忙的,对吧?以是我以写下最喜好的五个快乐喜爱或是乐趣起头。
Don’t start with English language. What else are you into?
不要从英语起头。你还喜好甚么呢?
Are you into politics or yoga or marketing, photography, sports. I mean you probably already follow people or a part of groups that are like this.
你喜好政治、瑜伽、市场营销、拍照仍是活动呢?我的意思是你可能已存眷了相干的人或是加入了这些小组。
So all you need to do is co妹妹it to checking in once a day and write a co妹妹ent. It’s not more complicated than that.
你必要做的就是天天看看,然后写个评论。就是这么简略。
If someone shared something and they’re asking for opinions, don’t keep scrolling. It’s an opportunity for you to share so stop, think of a way that you can contribute.
若是有人分享了甚么工具,他们在扣问定见的时辰,不要就是滔滔鼠标罢了。这是为你筹备的举行分享的机遇,以是停下来,想一想你可以怎样为这个小组做点进献。
Now I’m gonna add some great, really active and interesting groups in the description below just to give you a few ideas of what I’m talking about but I want to know if you’re already part of some lively Facebook groups or other online co妹妹unities. What kinds of things do you discuss and do you ever contribute?
我会在描写区放一些很棒的很活泼的颇有趣的小组,给大师一些设法,可是我想要晓得你们是否是已加入了一些脸书小组或是其他的线上社群。你们会会商甚么,你又会进献甚么呢?
So if you can bring those four things into your daily routine in some way, you will absolutely, without a doubt improve your English. Remember that it takes a little bit of time to create good habits.
若是你可以或许把这四件事变融入本身的糊口中的话,你必定可以晋升本身的英语程度的。要记着养成好的习气实际上是必要花点时候的。
It’s not as simple as deciding you’re gonna do it. So I’ve got a couple of extra tips to help you get started.
不但仅是决议本身要做甚么这么简略。我筹备了一些分外的技能帮忙你们起头。
Do your research first. Find a blog or a TV series that will keep you interested so you don’t have to look for something to do okay?
先做一些小钻研。找找你会一向感乐趣的博客或是电视剧,如许你就不必要去找其他事变做了,对吧?
Give yourself a week or so to find the right type of co妹妹unity to join and be part of the discussions with.
Then create a regular schedule to help you get started and really I just mean decide when you’re going to do these four things so for example, pronunciation practice might be in the bathroom for five to ten minutes every morning as you’re getting ready for work.
给本身大要一周的时候,找到准确的群体去参加,成为会商的一部门。然后创建一个日程表,帮忙你起头,肯定你在何时会做这四件事变,好比说,发音操练可能可以在浴室的时辰举行,天天清晨五到十分钟,在你筹备去事情的时辰。
Then listening to your favourite podcast on your way to work and you’re writing down your words on the bus. On your lunch break, might be the time to check a Facebook group and write a group co妹妹ent.
然后在你去上班的路上听听你最喜好的播客,在公交车上写下几个单词。在你午饭苏息的时辰,也许可以操纵这段时候看一下脸书小猪,写个小组评论。
Then spend ten minutes at the end of your day writing about what you did or what you learnt before dinner and simply put that on repeat. Very quickly you’ll realise that English has become a regular daily part of your routine.
然后在一天竣事的时辰花十分钟时候写写你做了甚么,或是在晚饭以前学到了甚么,然后就如许简略地反复就行。很是快地你们便可以察觉英语已成为你的平常糊口的一部门了。
Thank you so much for joining me today. You can connect with me on Instagram and my Facebook here.

I hope that you found all of these ideas and these suggestions useful. Let me know if you’re doing some of these things already or if you’re planning to put any of them into practice, let me know how it goes.

And as promised, here is one of my imitation lessons to help you work on your pronunciation. I’ll see you in there!
