English Speaking Practice 004
Stop memorizing vocabulary lists
You may not hear before
Change the way you study English from today moving forward
Are you ready to know why
The very first reason
English vocabulary
A lack of context
Without understanding their meaning and usage in context
Makes it difficult
effectively
Use them
In real life situations
I need you to understand
I have been where you are
I speak Korean
About 27 years old
Several years ago
Sitting in my room
Hundreds of words
The problem was I couldn’t memorize words after taking an exam
Because I wasn’t learning them in context
Tons of words
Connect to
A long list of words
I want you to do this
Read passage from a book
Even a blog post
Go back and review words you didn’t know
Then
Later
When you have another conversation later on
You see
When you study words
Basically
There is a place inside of your brain that can be stored
Because there is already a connection there
Alright
A man and a woman
Fell in love
You learn these words
Infatuated
With the woman
At all times
You are basically engrossed
You want to be with that person at all times
They consume your thoughts
You have a visual
Words you are learning
Again
Stop memorizing words from a list
You lack context when you do that
Make sense
Let’s move on the reason number 2
In a list form
Limited retention
Often forgotten
Quickly
Not applied and reinforced regularly
I mentioned earlier that
Reason number 1
I was memorizing tons of
But I was not able to retain them
In my mind
In my memory
They are not reinforced
This is what I want you to do
Related vocabulary
Synonyms
Then try to use them
Some aspects of your daily life
I want to make sure you are writing this down
What you learn
Happy
Many of you
It is true
Happy person
You could also say
Elated
Happy to see you
The majority of my students
Know this word
Academy
You feel elated about it
That is my personal life
Keep that word
So again
Retention
Have similar meanings
Retain the words and use them later on
Number 3
Simply repeating
Inefficient learning methods
Wrote
Like a robot
Engage with the language
English
Very creative
Literally
Help them individually
Put words together
Into creative way to express your thoughts
But when you turn
Process
Into simply robotic
Turns you
Instead of this
Listen to real english conversations
Every month
My program
The second program
Speak like a native
That is for advanced English learners
Listen a second time
Actively engaged in
But relaxed
Listen again
You listened before
More context
A little bit more
What the words and expressions
With the language
Enjoyment
Tedious
When I was laying in my bed
After the exam
Right
I changed my study style
Really helped
When you are studying
Enjoy the process
Have the fun
Want to continue
You ve told me many times
What you are doing
All of a sudden
I switched
Stop enjoying
Enjoy the process
New English words
The meaning of each word
Throughout the day
Have fun
Let’s see
Bagel shop
You will be consistently
Truly learning words
Not simply memorize
Long list
Make sense
Right
Pay close attention to
Quantity over quality
Telling you
It is more beneficial
That have practical locations
My database
Much larger
Than my
My niece can speak English very eloquently
Very intelligent
I know I am biased
You see
What happened
Are you able to use the words that you know
She does know
Clearly
With confidence
In whatever situation
That is the goal you should have
Slowly add more
Into your database
In a more natural way
You know yourself well
You know happy
Excited
Make sense
