  • Hello there. How are you doing?

  • I'm so happy that you're here with me at Go Natural English to improve your fluency.

  • So this is a special secret video lesson: The 7 Steps to Fluency in the English Language.

  • See it's really complicated trying to master the English language without a guide, without instructions.

  • So that's what I want to be for you is your English teacher guide,

  • and I want to give you really clear practical instructions

  • for becoming fluent and confident in the English language.

  • So let's take a look at the board behind me

  • and I'm going to explain each step clearly with a bit more detail, let's go.

  • So number one, it's very important that we start with the proper mindset.

  • We have to prepare our minds for success,

  • and that means a positive mindset, it can do attitude.

  • I believe that you can become fluent in English,

  • but you have to believe in yourself, too.

  • So I need you to do something.

  • I need you to believe in yourself.

  • And I need you to trust me as your english teacher and your guide to fluency.

  • So beginning with the proper mindset is very important.

  • And we really can't go far, if we don't have first and foremost the proper mindset.

  • So I recommend that for step one that you check out the Go Natural English Ebook: The English Fluency Formula.

  • Because there's a chapter about mindset, and there's also chapters on pronunciation,

  • and structure, and phrasal verbs, and other topics that you need to know for English fluency.

  • And it really helps you to understand the big picture.

  • So I really recommend that you get started with the ebook for step one.

  • Now step two is to master the sounds of English, this means pronunciation.

  • Because there are sounds in English like "tth" the "th" sound "arrrr"

  • that may be a little different from your native language.

  • So I love teaching pronunciation, I love helping English learners like you from all over the world

  • from many different countries to master pronunciation in English.

  • It's really fun, it's like a workout for your mouth.

  • Because I teach you exactly how to use your mouth, your tongue, your face,

  • in order to pronounce sounds correctly in English.

  • So you can check out my Go Natural English course for pronunciation.

  • Also sounds mean listening, and I know listening to native speakers can be challenging.

  • We talk really quickly sometimes, sometimes we blend sound together,

  • and that's another topic that I love teaching.

  • So a good course to learn about listening skills

  • on how to improve them is the 17 Secrets to Native English Listening Skills.

  • It's one of the most popular courses at Go Natural English.

  • So you could check that out to specifically focus on your listening skills.

  • Next "Words", we all know that vocabulary or words are very important to expressing yourself in a language.

  • You need to have word, you need to have vocabulary words,

  • even if you don't know the proper correct grammar to use.

  • You can express yourself using vocabulary.

  • But we want real life practical vocabulary: the idioms, the slang, the phrases that native speakers use, right.

  • Not old, inappropriate, very formal, robotic textbook vocabulary.

  • So I want to help you to learn the vocabulary that you're really going to hear from native English speakers

  • and to learn how to use it not just word by word by word memorizing lists,

  • but how to use the words in phrases and sentences.

  • Next we have "Phrases", so putting words together

  • into two, three, four, or five word, phrases maybe sentences.

  • But phrases are super important because we almost never just speak in one word utterances, right.

  • We usually speak in phrases, maybe we have a subject, a verb, an object.

  • These would be phrases and sentences.

  • So I want to help you to learn how to form your phrases,

  • how to speak fluently using the right words together like a native.

  • Phrases also include learning phrasal verbs, a verb plus a preposition, that carries a new meaning.

  • And we love to use phrasal verbs in English.

  • So it's very important not to skip over phrasal verbs.

  • Don't avoid them just because they're a little challenging, a little difficult.

  • They don't have to be, I'm going to make it easy for you.

  • You can also check out the phrasal verb course at Go Natural English.

  • And that's going to be really helpful, I highly suggest that to clarify phrasal verbs

  • that are most important for your everyday life.

  • Next we have "Structure".

  • Structure means how you express yourself, how do you structure your thoughts, tenses and grammar.

  • Now you really don't have to know every single grammar rule in the English language.

  • And I highly suggest you don't worry too much about grammar.

  • Learn what you need to know for practical everyday communication,

  • and then relax and rely on your communication skills.

  • And that comes with "Conversation."

  • So at Go Natural English, I love to help people connect

  • and have better conversations with other English speakers.

  • So it's all about knowing how to start, continue, and end a conversation.

  • So that you can make new friends,

  • so that you can network with other professionals in your career field.

  • So that you can ease your interview, or do really well on your oral English test exam.

  • Maybe you're taking a test and you have to prove your conversational skills.

  • That's what I want to help you with.

  • And finally the seventh step is "Culture".

  • Cultural understanding is part of the English language.

  • So I love giving you tips and tricks for communicating more effectively with American culture in mind.

  • So knowing how awesome and interesting all the different cultures are in the world.

  • I try to help you to understand how Americans think and how you can relate to North Americans better.

  • And get what you want out of your communication and your conversations.

  • So those are the seven steps for English fluency and confidence.

  • Number one mindset, two sounds,

  • three words, four phrases, five structure, six conversation, and seven culture.

  • And here at Go natural English, I've made the materials that you need.

  • The courses and the programs that will help you each step of the way.
