Hello there, English learner. How are you? I'm gabby your favorite English teacher and fluency coach now
I'm a native English speaker, but I also have a lot of
Experience teaching English and I absolutely love learning and teaching languages, so in this video
I want to show you the first step that you need for learning English or any language that I bet
None of your other teachers have ever told you before so I'm going to break down
this first step which is how to have a
Learning mindset or how to prepare your mind to learn a better and faster
So if that sounds interesting to you, then let's go, so take a look at the board behind me
I'm going to walk you through each of five points now
This is actually the first chapter in the English fluency
Formula my ebook to help you English learners to improve your fluency
Now if you want to get this evil
You can actually download it instantly you don't have to wait for a paper. Copy you can click right there
To get your ebook now
Let's talk about number one. Let me just set this over here
Focus on what you can do. I know you're learning. I know that you make mistakes, but that's okay
Let's say that you took a test and you got
95 questions right, but you got five questions wrong, so
why are you focusing on the five things that you got wrong instead of focusing on the
95 things that you got right the
overwhelming majority of things that you got right now by focusing on what you can do you are building your confidence and
You're thinking positively now of course. It's good to fix your mistakes
so
If you got five questions wrong you can take a look at why you might have gotten them wrong and how to improve them however
don't focus on your missed because that will actually make you feel nervous and afraid and hesitant to
Speak English because it's important to make mistakes actually and I'm going to talk about that in
number four so hang on number two create a positive
Mantra, what is a Mantra a Mantra is like a saying or a phrase that you can say quickly and
easily you can repeat it to yourself, and it's kind of your echoes or your
Mission statement your value statement for learning English or for learning anything
So for example my mantra is every day. I'm getting
better and better
little by little or it could be I'm doing my best, and I can see improvements every day or
Something similar where it's focused on the positive and a good effort that you are putting into your English studies
Okay, excellent number three spend time with
Motivated people with positive people with happy people if you're spending your time
Watching go natural English videos. That's a great start look you are the average of the five people
or influences that you spend the most time with so it's going to be more helpful to you if
They help you to stay motivated if they encourage you to continue learning and to be
Positive and happy in your life
So try not to let people get you down or be negative influences in your life try to
Minimize time with people who are always complaining?
Or saying negative things or showing that they don't believe in you
number four
Accept and learn from your mistakes mistakes are not
A bad thing I mean sure if you're taking an important, test you don't want to make too many mistakes
but when you're practicing
And when you're learning when you're developing your language skills mistakes are awesome mistakes are necessary
Mistakes help you to understand where you can improve and it's necessary to
Speak and to make mistakes because that's how we learn what's right, and what's wrong
okay, number five it's
Simple, maybe but it's actually not as simple as it seems because we often have a lot of negative self-talk
So I want you to believe that you can become fluent in English
Unfortunately, I hear a lot of English learners
saying things negative talk about themselves like oh, I'm too old to learn not true or
Oh, I'm so dumb not true or uh my English isn't very good
Not true, and even if your english isn't very good
I want you to believe that you can speak English well, so I don't ever want to hear you say
I'm never going to become fluent in English. It's not true
I believe in you, and you need to believe in you too. So these were five steps for you to develop a positive
open
learning Mindset a growth Mindset
it's really important for you to start with this so that you can learn faster and
