so now what well you want to become
fluent fast right here are the top five
shortcuts to learning a language number
one create a study schedule and set some
goals many language learners are
unorganized creating a schedule allows
you to free up time to study
consistently goals give you motivation
and something to strive for number two
make it fun if you learn how to make
your study time enjoyable chances are
you'll be more inclined to study watch a
TV show with subtitles or listen to some
music number three find a language
partner this is the best way to improve
your conversation skills it will help
you gain fluency even faster and
increase confidence when speaking number
four use word lists to build up a solid
vocabulary this is a great way to build
up your fluency one word at a time
luckily we have all the word lists you
need with a range of topics from food to
love choose whichever language you want
to study and go number five don't be
afraid to make mistakes nothing helps

today we're going to talk about four
techniques to help you stop translating
in your head and instead start thinking
in your target language this will allow
you to have conversations with ease read
smoothly and
understand native speakers these are
four methods to help you think in a new
language
number one surround yourself with your
target language this way you'll be
completely immersed in the language
without realizing it
you'll learn pronunciation sentence
structures grammar and new vocabulary
play music in the background while
you're cooking or have a radio station
on while you study just use one of our
endless podcasts available to you these
are easy to listen to in the background
while doing other things number two
learn through observation this is how we
all learned our native languages as kids
words will develop their own meanings
that relate better to your target
language rather than meanings that are
translated directly number three
speak out loud to yourself even if
you're a little embarrassed it forces
you to listen to how you speak it makes
it much easier to spot simple grammar
mistakes number four practice daily if
you practice everything for only one day
you won't retain the information you
learned the brain can realistically only
focus for about 30 minutes so studying a
little every day allows you to absorb
better follow these steps and have
patience you'll soon be able to achieve
your language learning goals just make

the real key to success is to make the
right goals in this video I'll show you
how with five tips to stop wasting your
time and start learning
hi everyone Alicia here in this video
I'll teach you five tips to stop
procrastinating and keep your motivation
for learning a new language some of
these are study methods and some will be
general ways that you can keep your
study motivation up while these tips are
for studying a language some of them are
good for other things in your life -
such as new challenges or other types of
goals but before we start don't forget

you probably already have some goals
you're trying to achieve when it comes
to your language learning progress while
achieving these goals is important
making sure you make the right goals is
the real key to success the very first
tip is to set SMART goals smart is an
acronym meaning each letter in the word
stands for another word the earliest
known reference to SMART goals was in an
article written by George T Doran for a
1981 issue of the management review
academic journal the acronym varies
depending on its use but each letter
generally stands for some criterion that
helps with effective goal setting for
our purposes let's define SMART goals as
follows the S stands for specific your
goals should target a specific area for
improvement our natural tendency is to
have a goal that's very general if your
goal isn't specific enough you'll lack
the focus and proper direction you need
to achieve your goals so S is for
specific
M stands for measurable your goals
should be quantifiable they should be
able to indicate progress in some way
you have to be able to track your
progress otherwise you won't know if
you're getting any closer to your goal
as you see yourself getting closer and
closer to your goal your motivation will
go up so your goals need to be
measurable a stands for achievable your
goals have to be achievable many people
want to become fluent in their target
language immediately however this goal
is unrealistic your goals have to be
achievable if your goal is to
challenging for your current level it
will only D motivate you when you aren't
where you think you should be instead
think about what results can
realistically be achieved given your
level your resources and any constraints
such as time so make sure that your goal
is actually achievable art stands for
relevant your goals may be specific they
may be measurable and they may be
achievable but are they actually
relevant to what you want to achieve
don't just do a lot of things if you're
focused on improving your speaking
skills in your target language make sure
that you spend your time having
conversations with others make sure
you're doing the right things so that
your efforts actually bring you closer
to your goal instead of just giving you
more work T stands for timely you need
to set a deadline for your goals if you
don't specify when you plan to achieve
the result you've set for yourself it's
very easy to put off the task you can
delay it until tomorrow the next week or
the next month and at this rate you'll
never get things done so your goal must
have an end date
so remember tip number one is to set
SMART goals specific measurable
achievable relevant and timely so for
example a goal you could make is
registering for a challenging test a
test that's a little bit beyond your
current level I hate failing so if I
register for a challenging test I'm
motivated to study because I don't want
to fail this is a good example of a
smart
goal because tests are specific there
are tons of different tests focused on
speaking grammar and comprehension pick
a test that can measure the specific
area in which you'd like to grow
measurable tests are measurable every
test measures your performance to some
degree whether it's a total count of
right and wrong answers or a simple pass
or fail every test measures your
performance tests are achievable there's
an important detail to remember here
though find a test that is achievable
for you if you're a beginner then the
most advanced test is probably not right
for you find one that's meant for
beginners then after that one work your
way up to more advanced tests in the
future tests are relevant most if not
all language tests are designed to
ensure that you're capable of performing
to a set standard in your target
language lower level tests are designed
to ensure that you can handle the most
essential aspects of your target
language but there are tests for all
levels including higher education entry
exams that could be difficult even for
native speakers pick the one that's
right for you and finally tests are
timely if your test is completed in a
physical location then this one is
obvious you have to be at that spot at
the set time ready to take the test
there's no wiggle room but even online
tests will most likely have a deadline
for you to complete them
[Music]
the second tip to help you stop
procrastinating and to keep your
motivation up is to create a diary or
social media account that you can update
every day this may seem simple or even
unrelated to language learning but by
creating a diary in your target language
you have the chance to actually create
in the language itself creating a diary
is also a great way to practice writing
in your target language another method
is to create a social media account
which gives you the chance to connect
with other people who are working toward
the same goals as you maybe they can
even give you feedback on your writing
if you're following people online who
regularly share good resources those can
be really helpful for you too it lets
you find new tools that can encourage
and motivate you especially if they
relate to some of your other interests
such as music or books and other
languages this is a really good way to
take a few minutes every day to work
towards your goal without it even
seeming like work the third tip is to
focus on understanding a specific TV
show or movie try to watch a movie in
your target language without any
subtitles or try to understand your
favorite TV show that's in your target
language if you don't already have a
goal like this it can be a fun way to
practice if your friends often talk
about a particular TV show it could be a
good way to study and a fun way to keep
your motivation up together
Plus TV shows and movies often use the
language in a way that's vastly
different from the conversations
provided in traditional textbooks so you
often get to hear different vocabulary
choices it's a very powerful way to
learn a language and end up sounding
more like a native speaker tip number
four is to enroll in a regular language
course register for something you have
to go to or you have to participate in
regularly meaning every week or two
times a week or maybe even every day the
point of this is it's something that
gives you a pattern to follow forming a
study habit will help you progress very
quickly it will make it easier for you
to achieve your language learning goals
once you form the habit you won't even
have to think about starting each time
it'll just be natural have something
that you must take responsibility for
you'll be more motivated to
if there are others especially
classmates or a teacher watching you
progress look for resources inside your
community and if there are no
opportunities there look for things
digitally you can find many of our
videos on YouTube on Facebook and of
course our entire video and audio lesson
library on our website the lessons on
our website also come with assignment
courses so you can test your knowledge
[Music]
the last tip is to make your goal public
share your goal tell people about your
goal for example if you want to give a
business presentation in your target
language this year then tell your
colleagues or your boss about it some
people may find what you're doing
interesting and they can support you
this kind of pressure can help push
people forward who have trouble
motivating themselves alone by telling
others about your goal you'll feel more
accountable because you told somebody
that you were planning on doing
something there's an underlying sense of
guilt
if you don't accomplish the task you may
feel that you have failed your peers in
some way even if there's no direct
pressure from them using this technique
you can push yourself into moving
forward towards your goal especially at
times when you feel the least motivated
and that brings us to the end of our
five tips to stop wasting time and start
learning a language we've talked a lot
about how to set goals for yourself and
think about new challenges first I told
you about creating SMART goals
remember SMART goals are specific
measurable achievable relevant and
timely registering for a test is a great
example of a SMART goal next we talked
about keeping a diary or social media
account in your target language start
doing it right now even if you're still
a beginner then I suggested that you
focus on understanding a specific TV
show or movie pick something in your
target language that you really love
because you may need to watch it over
and over again until it all makes sense
to you and next we talked about
enrolling in a regular language course
this will give you something concrete
that you must take responsibility for
finally make your goal public tell
someone about your learning goals to
keep you accountable for them you're
much less likely to abandon your studies
if you have friends asking you about
your progress I hope that these are

your language learning goals and before

hi everybody my name is Alisha and today
we're gonna be talking about the top 25
English phrases so let's get started the
first phrase is hello hello of course is
used as a greeting you can greet your
friends you can greet your co-workers
your family with this phrase just by
saying hello hey hi what's up hello sup
yo pretty much any time of day you can
use hello hello the next phrase is good
morning good morning is used as a
greeting in the morning you can kind of
feel when morning ends for you good
morning is nice and polite or even just
morning with your close friends or close
co-workers the next phrase is good night
good night is fine we don't use this to
greet other people we use it when we're
saying goodbye to other people at night
family members particularly mothers and
fathers to say good night to their
children before they put them to bed you
can say it to your friend and a text
message or in an email if you've been
talking for a while good night
so the next word to talk about is
goodbye use it when you say goodbye to
your friends when you leave your friends
good bye bye of course take care have a
nice day
peace out that's another way to say
goodbye okay the next phrase is I'm plus
your name of course this is a way to
introduce yourself you can use I'm in my
case Alicia I'm Alicia to introduce
yourself in any situation new friend I'm
Alicia
okay the next phrase is what's your name
what's your name is used to ask someone
else what their name is so what is your
name sounds a bit try to use what's your
name if you forget someone's name you
can say sorry what's your name or sorry
what's your name again next phrase is
nice to meet you nice to meet you any
time you meet someone new
nice to meet you is fine good to meet
you is a little more casual great to
meet you sounds very excited pleasure to
meet you sounds like maybe a formal
situation or a business context okay the
next phrase is how are you how are you
is Ann it's just a friendly way to check
in with the other person you can use it
with friends your family your co-workers
maybe even your boss to a certain degree
how are you how you doing the next
phrase is I'm fine thanks and you if you
saw English in three minutes we talked a
lot about this phrase instead of I'm
fine thank you and you say I'm good
how are you just shorten it and make it
a little bit more natural how are you
good how are you great how are you not
so good how are you okay and so on so
when someone says how are you offer I
usually say I'm good this week I pop a
blog give some information about what
you've been up to maybe a hobby
something that you did recently an event
something interesting you saw whatever
people want to make that connection with
you and it's a good chance for you to
continue speaking the next word is
please please as a polite phrase used
when you want something from someone
else you can use this as a response when
someone offers you something like in a
restaurant for example would you like
more water would you like something to
drink
oh please the next phrase is thank you
thank you is used to express your
appreciation you can use thank you with
everybody the next phrase is you're
welcome you're welcome when someone says
thank you you can say you're welcome no
biggie
I use no biggie as in no biggie is short
for no big problem the next word is yes
yes of course yes means is any positive
expression someone asks you a question
and the answer is a positive answer you
say yes yep uh-huh yeah we know
next I'm guessing I knew it yep the next
word is no no is a negative response to
something when you have to give a
negative answer so as you can probably
guess the long form of no is negative I
like to use nope it's very very casual
not gonna happen my parents would use
that with me to soften that a little bit
if you want to show a negative response
to something like let's go for dinner
tonight what do you want to do like do
you want to go out not really
hmm no I don't think so hmm to soften it
the next word is okay okay
this word comes from copy editors okay
when they had to check a manuscript they
had to label the manuscript all clear AC
but because they were copy editors and
they have a very very sick sense of
humor they thought they would mark it
okay for all clear to make a joke
because o and K do not start all and
clear but it caught on among everybody
in the world anyway okay
is used to agree with somebody else well
it can be used actually to express a
positive or kind of a slight negative I
feel transitioning in your conversation
you can say okay now we're going to talk
about blah blah okay
the next phrase is excuse me excuse me
it's used to get someone's attention in
English when you don't know the other
person for example in a store a
supermarket
maybe a stranger on the street you need
to ask directions you can use excuse me
you can use excuse me in the supermarket
excuse me can you tell me where the hot
sauce is if you've done something rude
in public you can use excuse me I
personally do not do rude things in
public ever I'm sorry is the next word
we're gonna talk about I'm sorry is used
to apologize when you have made a
mistake or someone you know it's made a
mistake and you're connected to it or
you just feel bad you can use I'm sorry
you made a mistake at work I'm sorry you
forgot to feed your cat I'm sorry sorry
about that you bump someone next to you
oh sorry what time is it is the next
phrase when you need to check what time
it is
what time is it when you ask someone
else what time it is maybe you say this
to yourself to check your watch check
your phone check a clock pretty
straightforward phrase there aren't
really any short version so that's an
easy one where is that plus a location
so you can use this for a building or a
store we don't we're not going to use
this where is the for a place a city
name or a state name or a country name
to do that you would need to remove the
but where is the bank where is the post
office you can use this to ask
directions to ask for help in your house
or at work where is the copy machine
where is the file
I need where is the blah blah blah where
is the bathroom is perhaps a very
important question to know the next one
is may I use the restroom may I use the
restroom is a polite and soft expression
that you can use if you need to use the
toilet you need to use the washroom and
when you're at someone's house for the
very first time when you're in a place
that your that is new to you you can ask
may I use the restroom more casually can
I go to the bathroom to be very polite
you could say may I go to the bathroom
the next phrase is I would like to order
something you can use this at a
restaurant probably or in any situation
where you need to place an order I'd
like a pizza I like
can I get the check please this will be
used at a restaurant when you've
finished your meal and it's time to go
can I get the check please in a very
very casual situation you can just say
check please that's fine the next phrase
is see you soon see you soon is used
with friends and family members perhaps
when you expect to see them again soon
after saying goodbye to them this is
used at the end of the conversation
you're going separate directions
see you soon see ya is also good or just
see you to make it a little more formal
you can say I'll see you again soon make
a full sentence out of it that way
the next phrases see you later see you
later is very similar to see you soon
but the point is would see you later is
that you're probably going to meet that
person again later on in the same day
the last phrase is really really is a
very useful word because you can use it
to show you were interested in a
conversation with upward intonation
really really tell me more or to show
that you're not so interested in the
conversation with downward intonation
really so there are many other words
that you can use similar to really in
this way like seriously or oh oh and so
on so it's a really good practice for
your intonation so those are 25 very
