In this episode of the Effortless English Show, I share with you easy ways to improve your English reading and English speaking. Trust, believe that you are smart enough. One of our important values in Effortless English is self-reliance. Your coach who encourages you, motivates you, to be stronger, to be an independent learner, to have success independently, to get what you want from life, not what I want you, for you. Your coach, your coach who encourages you to be a great performer. I'm not here to tell you exactly what to do. You no longer have someone telling you to take a test, study, practice your English. But when you get out of class, you no longer have someone telling you how to study English. ĭid you know that you can take six, seven or even eight years of English class and still not know how to speak English?

I do this because you need real world English - real English learning! You don't need grammar rules, vocabulary lists, et cetera. I talk in a very normal, real world, conversational way.

When you read the menu, you'll get some ideas in your mind about what the dish will be, how it might taste, how it might smell. When you go to a restaurant, you look at the menu, it's a piece of paper. Learning English can sometimes be an abstraction. An abstraction is an idea but not the actual thing.
