you will see such a dramatic Improvement in your speaking and it's really just like students know
well first of all they're scared of speaking right obviously scared of speaking but how do we get
past that guys you have to push yourself to speak more and it's hard to do that alone so that's why
we made this 30-day IELTS speaking challenge so if you go to allearsenglish.com IELTS challenge
you can get that challenge plus the complete IELTS package um and you save a hundred dollars
so that's a pretty good deal all earsenglish.com IELTS challenge check it out okay I think that's
so true that the fear not only is it scary just to speak English in general but then compound
that with having to speak for an exam when this high stakes pressure on the line if you guys are
preparing for a speaking exam it is terrifying so if you need those strategies the skills that
can give you the confidence you need and this is that's the way to do it yeah so first idiom is
and why why is we want you guys to go for it you guys don't stay still in your English you
guys are such high level hard-working Learners you deserve to see Improvement and you know what
even if you're not studying IELTS this is such a great way to push yourself and challenge yourself
to the next level so go for it guys we say this phrase as like encouragement as like take action
I feel like it's the most native phrase yes I use it all the time and I feel like it's
the most like a native English way if someone is sharing something with you that they're thinking
about trying but they're not really sure they assert they're sort of needing that motivation
I would say this every time be like go for it you can do it yes for sure exactly I know I say this
all the time go for it just like for it almost anytime somebody's like should I shouldn't I
I'm like go for it like why not really what have you got to lose go for it yes guys what do do you
have to lose by taking our speaking Challenge and saving a hundred dollars go for it okay now
here's the next phrase you might you might have known that first idiom go for it because we do
say that a lot we're very motivating here on all ears English but the second one go with the flow
so this could be positive or negative um how would you describe this phrase yeah I think of someone
who's a little bit laid back like whatever's happening they're not getting upset they're
pretty happy with whatever's going on they're just going with the flow right I'm like this a
lot I just go with the flow whatever's happening I'm happy to be there I'm just along for the ride
but right which is which that's a very positive thing usually right yes exactly not to get like
too hung up and anxious and like wow just like just go with the flow you know just be fine with
whatever's happening around you but the problem is if in some aspects of your life if you go with the
flow you never improve right with my language learning sometimes I get stuck in a rut where
I'd kind of just go with the flow if there's a Spanish podcast that happens to be handy but if
not I'm probably going to listen in English and my it really stagnates my language learning so this
is when it comes to learning a language you can't go with the flow exactly so I I picture this as
um a student who is already has pretty good English you know what I mean and they can say what
they want mostly they can understand a lot of what they're hearing and so it's really hard to improve
and this is a student who if they go with the flow they're listening to things that they know they
can understand they're talking about things they know they can talk about they're not challenging
themselves to get out of that flow to get out of that river right and go to the next level so
um some of my favorite IELTS students are the ones who aren't actually studying IELTS they
just decided to challenge themselves by totally changing the way they're studying English not go
with the flow anymore just so they can experience that challenge and that Improvement I love it as
I can to see what score they could get and it's amazing how it pushes them to learn more idiomatic
language it pushes them to have more interesting intonation because you have to do these things
for the IELTS exam such a good point that like motivates you it gives you a reason besides just
because just so I speak better right right and then it can really push you to that what you're
describing is me in Spanish exactly like I I see myself I'm like okay I need this advice I need
to be pushing myself to be listening to things that are more difficult right I'm there with
you guys we all need to stop stop going with the flow yeah for sure for sure so let's think about
