My name is Rodger Koller and this video is going to be very important
Maybe not so quick but definitely important
as you've already seen in the title
In this video I'm going to teach you how you can have the same result as a person who has gone on an
exchange program
and you won't even have to leave your country
but before we start
I must ask you to please hit the LIKE button
Seriously, it's extremely important
when you do that because you help me spread
this video on youtube, the more LIKEs and the more comments this video has, the more Youtube will show it
to other people, therefore you will help me to continue with this project
so, please hit the LIKE button now
and after watching this video leave a comment
I'll make sure to reply to all the comments
in this video, so please take this opportunity
to practice your English and leave a comment in English
I'll reply to your comment. Now without any further ado, let's get started
This video might not be so quick but it's extremely important
and it might save you a lot of money
I'll teach you how to learn English without leaving your country
and having the same or even a better result
than a person who has gone on an exchange program
It's not a place that will teach you English
It's yourself
it's your day-to-day dedication
The main difference is seizing the opportunity
and I'll definitely make a video about the things you should and shouldn't do on an exchange program
but this is not the topic of this video in particular
and I don't want to drift away from the main topic
I'll tell you how to study efficiently without leaving your country
and having the same or better results than a person who is studying abroad
I'll tell you many detailed things
please take notes of my suggestions from now on
Please it's essential that you pause the video right now
and get a pen and paper
in order to take notes
Have you done that?
Ok
SO, let's get cracking!
The first step is routine
You need to organise a daily routine
and seriously get a pen and a paper
and set rules for your everyday routine
and most importantly, respect this routine
within this routine you'll have to practice the four skills
reading, writing, speaking and listening
I'll tell you how to do that
The second step is immersion
You'll definitely need to be exposed to English for as long as you can
But if you don't have anyone around you who speaks English
I'll tell you what you can do only using Youtube, Netflix and groups on Whatsapp or Telegram
That's all you need to work on this method
You'll need to watch videos or movies in which the spoken language is English
and it's important that these videos or movies have subtitles in English
I'm going to use my channel as an example
but again, you can do it with any other youtube channel
movie or series
that have subtitles in English
So, as you know, all of my videos have subtitles in your language and in English
so first, if you are a basic student
watch it with the subtitles in your language
just to understand the whole gist of the video first
second, watch it again with the subtitles in English
but pause it as many times as necessary
and take notes of new words
new expressions that you'll come across watching it
make a list of the new vocabulary and write down
everything that is new to you
grammar or whatever is new to you
these notes will be extremely important
and I'll tell you what to do with them in a moment
hold on, before the end of this video I'll tell you what to do
with these notes you've written down
the third step is to watch this video again but this time without the subtitles
This is the third time you'll be watching the same video
so you'll definitely understand everything now and you'll be practicing your listening skills
by doing that
the fourth step is
The ideal is that you download this video
this movie or this episode from this series
whatever video that you're using
download it and turn it into mp3
so when you commute to work, when you are on the bus
when you're cleaning your house
cooking, driving or taking a shower
you'll be listening to that same video
over and over again
on that same day
by the end of the day, you'll certainly remember those new words and expressions
forever, you'll be immersed into English by doing that
ok, by doing these things that I've suggested, you'll activate your passive knowledge
which means that you'll learn a lot
but it doesn't mean that you'll be able to use these things
that you've just learnt with the videos yet
you know, when you learn something and you read it somewhere or you listen to people talking about it
you can understand that thing but when you actually have to use it in real life
You can't do that. Do you know when it happens?
You know and recognise something but when you have to use it, you forget that word and that expression
you don't know how to use it
but you understand it
it's called "passive knowledge"
You need to turn your passive knowledge into active knowledge
and into active speaking
There are some ways to do that
and I'll tell you one
in order to effectively use the things you have learnt
you'll need to use it in real life
what I mean is that you have to communicate with other people
in English and every day
I know some of you will say that you don't have anyone to do that
around you, you don't know anyone who speaks English
I can provide you with a solution to that particular problem
Our group on Telegram
Today there are around 6 hundred people in our group on Telegram
and you can communicate with them at any time
and in English with them every day
I know that there are some people in our group
who just read what other people are saying
other people's interactions
but they never say anything
if this is your case
you're not using the group the way you should
you're not using it properly, but it's ok
Now, I'll tell you how you can use our group on Telegram efficiently
if you use it properly, you'll be able to practice your English
and you'll be able to practice the four skills, communicating with each other
every day
and then you'll turn your passive knowledge into active speaking
The first thing is, join our group on Telegram
See in the description of the video how to do that
Do you remember the notes you took when you were watching the video with the subtitles in English?
Remember that you took notes of the new expressions, new words, new grammar, whatever new
you came across you wrote down
whatever you learned
you wrote it down
so, every day you'll do that first
you'll learn something new
you'll write it down and you'll share this piece of information with the other members
from our group on Telegram
I'll give you one example of what you can do
Let's say you've learnt how to say sentences in the future
So, you'll start a conversation in the group
talking about the future
and no problem if what you're saying is basic
and simple, we all know that everybody is studying in the group, so
we should help each other, we can keep it simple first
Remember to say something about yourself first and then ask a question
it should be like this:
Hey Good morning
Good morning
My day will be complicated, I'll work all day
At 6 pm I'll go back home and I'll make dinner. What are your plans for today?
Oh my God!!!
I'll work too and I'll see my ex-girlfriend tonight, I still love her.
Really? Are you crazy?
Ok, that was a silly example
but ok, I'm a silly man
ok let me focus here, the secret is
first, you need to learn at least one neew thing every day
and you must use it by communicating with other people
in our group on Telegram every day
You'll be able to practice the four skills
in the group. When you type messages, you'll be practicing your writing
when you read the messages, you'll be practicing your reading
and when you send voice messages, you'll be practicing your speaking
and when you listen to other people's voice messages, you'll be practicing your listening
Let's review what we have seen so far:
1- watch a video 3 times, the second time with the subtitles in English, take notes of anything new
2- turn this video into mp3 and listen to it again many times throughout the day.
3- use whatever you learned that day in the group on Telegram, communicating with other people
Oh my God! My phone is ringing
I hate it when it happens in the middle of a video...Hold on...
Hello
Hello, this is your student
I was watching your video and I decided to call you
because I need to ask you a question
For me it's hard, I don't have time to do everything you've just said
every day!!!! I don't have time to do that, I work!!!
Well, I've never said it would be easy
It's not easy, you're learning a whole new language
You need dedication, discipline and routine
and time!!!
I don't have time to do these things every day
Yes, you do...Look!
What time do you normally wake up every day?
I wake up at around 8 am, why?
Ok, you need to dedicate at least one hour to watch the videos
and take notes in the morning
so, from now on you will wake up at 6:50 am
and you'll watch the same video 3 times
you'll take notes of whatever new thing you learn
and you'll turn that video into mp3
you know, my videos are not long
They are from 5 to 10 minutes each
so one hour will be enough for you
You'll listen to this mp3 on your way to work
on the bus
or driving to work, every time you have a break
you'll listen to it again
and when you have time you can read the notes you took in the morning
try to read them aloud
and in the evening when you get home
you'll go to our group on Telegram
and you'll start a conversation using the notes you took in the morning
Remember to say something about yourself first
and then ask a question
try to have a conversation on Telegram for at least 20 minutes every day
this is just a suggestion, but when you have time
you can always send messages in the group
the important is that you use it every day
if you organise yourself, this method won't affect your normal activities
it'll only be something else that you'll add to your every day life
you only need dedication, discipline and routine
you need to do it every day
and within the period of one month
you'll notice the absurd progress
that you'll have had with your English
and the best part is that you won't spend any money on that because
the videos are available on Youtube
and the group on Telegram is free of charge
completely free of charge
you'll never have to pay for any of these things
oh my God!
That sounds amazing
but can I use other kinds of videos such as movies, series, other channels on Youtube?
or do I have to use your channel on Youtube?
No, you can use different things, of course
but they need to have subtitles in English at least
I only recommend my channel because my videos have subtitles in English
and in your language, so...
Rodger, there's another problem, yo speak too fast
in the videos, sometimes it's hard for me to follow
it's hard for me to udnerstand what you say
You can slow down the speed
of the video by clicking on the gear
on the screen
just like this:
Rodger, would yo like to come to my house now?
I can make dinner for us
and we can spend the night together
I've just bought a King Size bed and...
NO! Thanks, bye!
