Hm hm hm hm, whew, so much to learn.00:00:04
Hey, James from www.engvid.com . Today's lesson,
I want to teach you about Super Learning,00:00:11
you know, from one of my favorite, well, not
my favorite superhero, but my brother's and00:00:15
a good friend of mine's superhero: Superman.00:00:19
Why is he Superman?00:00:21
Because he does everything better than the
average person.00:00:26
Today's lesson is how to learn better.00:00:29
Now, I'm not saying better than the average
person, but to improve your ability to learn00:00:35
or to, yeah, be better than the average person
when they learn.00:00:39
And you might say "Why is that important?00:00:41
This is an English lesson."00:00:45
Learning English: the grammar, vocabulary,
syntax, reading and writing, they're all great00:00:51
things.00:00:52
The problem is when you're not able to learn
on a constant basis and continually improve,00:00:59
if you get bored and stagnant, you stop learning,
you stop working, you give it up.00:01:05
If I can give you some tools with which to
improve and give you the ability to learn00:01:10
faster, as you get it in faster and you learn,
you will complete the goal that you started00:01:14
for yourself, which was to learn English.00:01:16
So, let's go to the board and do some Super
Learning.00:01:19
Alright?00:01:20
Super Learning, it's Mr. E with his big "S"
on his chest, flying powerfully.00:01:25
This lesson I'm giving to a guy named Joseph
Alain Leconte, he's from Haiti, I was out00:01:30
on the street one day and he came up and said
"Hey, I watch your videos, thank you very00:01:33
much!", and Alain - sorry, Joseph Alain, thank
you very much for stopping to say hello.00:01:39
I always appreciate it and I love the support
that you guys give.00:01:43
But let me get to the board and get to the
lesson, that's why you're here.00:01:46
So, we're going to go one, two, three, four,
five, six, seven different things or exercises00:01:51
I can give you to help you become a Super
Learner.00:01:55
Super Learning isn't anything special, it's
basically doing not just your best, that's00:02:02
one thing, it's maximizing your potential,
and what I mean by - you have a line that00:02:06
you start at, and here's what you can possibly
do.00:02:09
Most of us, at our best, move up here.00:02:11
When we do Super Learning, we actually go
up here and learn as much as we can actually00:02:15
do.00:02:16
And it's surprising how much you can take
in and how much you can use to become better00:02:20
in a short period of time if you're given
certain tools, and I'm going to give you a00:02:24
few hints today.00:02:25
One of the first things is there's Mr. E with
a megaphone, he's speaking out.00:02:30
If it's written material, say it out loud.00:02:33
What?00:02:34
Well, when you read it, read it, that's using
your vision, okay?00:02:40
There are three ways learn, there are actually
more, but three basic ones people are taught00:02:44
in teachers' colleges that most students use
to learn.00:02:48
One is visual, with your eye, one is auditory
with your ear, and the other kinesthetic,00:02:53
doing something.00:02:54
That's why, in school, you'll notice teachers
write on a board, you look at it, then they00:02:59
speak, you listen, then you write down information.00:03:02
By doing those three, you can keep up to 80%
of the information, alright?00:03:07
And also, repetition and a few other things.00:03:09
But there's the things that help you learn.00:03:11
A lot of people have things that they're better
at, so some people are better at listening00:03:15
than they are at understanding information
when it's written, or when they do it, they're00:03:20
confused, but if you explain it to them, they're
like "Oh, I get it, I can do that."00:03:24
Same with some people, they need to see it,
you demonstrate it, they can understand, but00:03:28
if you say it to them or make them do it,
they don't, okay?00:03:30
So, there's two of the three, and obviously
number three, the kinesthetic, if they do00:03:35
it, they understand much better than if you
write it on the board or explain it.00:03:39
So, why am I telling you "If it's written,
say it"?00:03:41
Well remember, I said if all three are combined
you learn better?00:03:44
So, if something's written down, one of the
better ways to understand it is to say it00:03:48
out loud because when it's written, you're
using your visual.00:03:51
When you say it out loud, that's right, your
auditory comes in.00:03:54
It's another component, so it means more of
your brain has to be used to absorb the information.00:03:59
It's also got a repetition factor.00:04:02
Because you read it and then you say it, you're
repeating it to make it go deeper, so it's00:04:06
not just one time, I'm finished, it's one,
"How are you today?"00:04:09
"How are you today?"00:04:10
By doing that alone, guess what?00:04:14
That's right, you've listened, you've watched,
but you've done the third one by accident,00:04:18
by opening your mouth, you're using kinesthetic:
"How are you today?"00:04:22
You've done it three times now.00:04:23
You've looked at it, you've said it, you've
heard yourself, three repetitions for one00:04:29
reading.00:04:30
Some people will read it once, by doing that
alone, you're doing it three times, so you00:04:33
can see, you can learn three times as quickly.00:04:36
That's why we call it Super Learning, taking
what you have and maximizing your potential.00:04:41
Also, when you're saying it out loud, it gives
your brain the opportunity to critique or00:04:45
look at that information, because you're saying
it, does it make sense to you?00:04:48
Why doesn't it make sense?00:04:49
What is confusing to me?00:04:50
When you're looking it down, you might say
"I don't understand", or understand and it00:04:53
stops.00:04:54
When you say, "Does this sentence even work?",
cool?00:04:57
Alright.00:04:58
Next: If it's spoken material, write it down.00:05:01
Oh, it's the same, you just repeated it.00:05:03
No.00:05:04
It is the same in that we are using more senses
to learn it, but when something's spoken,00:05:10
it's quickly forgotten.00:05:11
So, the added bonus to writing it down is
you have notes to remind you so you can look00:05:17
at it later.00:05:18
But, one of the important things about writing
it down is it's a motor skill that forces00:05:22
your body to go through, once again, we're
going to kinesthetic movement, forcing the00:05:26
brain to work because you're taking sound
and you're interpreting it into a - I would00:05:31
say, visual medium, so then you've got the
kinesthetic writing it, then it's the looking00:05:36
at it, because I've never met anyone who writes
like this.00:05:39
Okay.00:05:40
Usually they write and they look.00:05:43
So, when you're in a lecture hall, most students
do this naturally.00:05:47
They write it down.00:05:49
I met a person who was really interesting,
well maybe I'm making that up and it was something00:05:53
I read, but they said that they were at a
meeting with someone and the person actually00:05:57
- they wanted to meet this person and talk
to them.00:06:00
Just imagine a big manager and a small employee.00:06:04
The big manager wanted to meet the small employee
and the big manager took out a book and a00:06:08
pen and started writing down what the small
employee said.00:06:11
It's like "Why?"00:06:12
"Well, I can learn from you."00:06:13
So, when I'm sitting there talking to you,
I can learn from you if I'm writing it down.00:06:17
If I don't, it gets forgotten, so it makes
it more important to my brain because if I'm00:06:21
writing it - taking the time, my brain goes
"This must be important, I should remember00:06:25
it."00:06:26
It also gives me the opportunity, or you the
opportunity, to go over what you've written00:06:30
down and see if it makes sense and clarify
it.00:06:32
So you get to question it, think about it,
give it some sense in your head, and it helps00:06:37
you remember it.00:06:38
So, these are brother and sister.00:06:41
If it's written material, say it out loud.00:06:43
Try to see if you can actually understand
it when you just say it to yourself.00:06:46
If it's spoken material, write it down.00:06:48
Write it down afterwards and look and go "Does
this actually make sense?"00:06:50
Now, going with the writing, we've spoken
about writing twice, there's a third one.00:06:55
This is rather interesting.00:06:57
Most of you, when you think of writing - or
actually, let's actually be honest - most00:07:02
of you in the 21st century, you don't write,
you type.00:07:05
You go to a classroom, you sit down, you type
- click click click, right?00:07:09
Click, click, click, or you do on your cell
phone - click, click, click, and you take00:07:13
these notes.00:07:14
It reminds me of people who take pictures
of everything and you ask them "Do you remember00:07:17
that concert we went to last year?"00:07:19
"Yes."00:07:20
"Do you look at the pictures?"00:07:21
"No."00:07:22
"But you took many pictures."00:07:23
"Yes."00:07:24
"But you don't look at them."00:07:25
"Yeah."00:07:26
It's like, it was a waste.00:07:27
You should have watched and enjoyed instead
of taking pictures that you never look at.00:07:29
So, you've missed it twice.00:07:31
You've missed the actual thing and now you're
missing what's actually in your computer.00:07:35
The same with typing.00:07:37
When you type, it actually doesn't activate
your brain as much.00:07:39
"Well, I took the notes, you said write it
down."00:07:42
I said "Yeah, write, write, I didn't say 'type'."00:07:45
When you type it, your brain doesn't really
know that this an "S" button and this is a00:07:49
"T" button and this is a "U" button.00:07:50
It has no clue.00:07:52
It just knows "press button, press button,
press button".00:07:55
When you're writing, each character is individual,
so it forces the brain to pay attention to00:08:00
what you're doing, and that paying attention
to what you're doing makes the language or00:08:06
whatever subject you're studying go deeper
into your brain.00:08:09
Now, you notice I said here, I said "Write
in cursive, do not print."00:08:12
And some of you are like "What's that?"00:08:15
I know!00:08:16
Time has changed.00:08:18
There was a time when I went to school, you
had to learn cursive.00:08:21
In fact, it was so bad, they gave you a pencil
because you weren't good enough, and when00:08:26
you mastered cursive, they gave you a pen
and everybody waited for that day to be given00:08:31
a pen like "You may now write in permanent
ink, no more pencil for you because you're00:08:36
a big boy now!"00:08:38
So, for those of you who don't know what cursive
is, because some of you won't, this is cursive.00:08:47
Now, some of you right now are going "What
did he just do?00:08:55
Is that - is that Arabic?00:08:58
Is that Sanskrit, what is that?00:08:59
This is not English!"00:09:01
This is cursive.00:09:02
You're welcome.00:09:03
Or, I can write it like this, I'm going to
be off the board, but you'll see, you will00:09:07
see what I mean.00:09:15
The thing about cursive is it combines two
parts or two part - the two parts of your00:09:19
brain, your left and right hemisphere.00:09:21
So, one is more artistic, one is more scientific,
I mean, this is just general, don't take it00:09:27
too seriously, even scientists have a problem
with it, but they're saying the two parts00:09:31
of your brain deal with different parts.00:09:34
One form in function, one more logical thinking.00:09:37
In cursive, it's combined, because when we
write, that's more logical information, but00:09:41
the cursive is artistic, you can see, swirl,
swirl, dots, all art.00:09:45
So, the two parts of the brain work together
to make the information go deeper into the00:09:50
brain, so you remember it better.00:09:52
So, when I say "print", this is okay, not
good enough.00:09:56
You want to do this.00:09:57
This will even require, for many of you, a
lot of time to master.00:10:01
I just recently started doing it again, and
it took me a few days after years of being00:10:06
able to do it to get this consistent.00:10:09
You have to focus.00:10:10
So, this is interesting in case you think
"He just made that up, it came from nowhere!"00:10:14
Well actually, I made it up with a whole bunch
of important people down in the United States.00:10:19
In The New York Times article, it was April
30th, 2013, the College Board findings, now00:10:25
the college board in the States deals with
the universities, and what they found is that00:10:29
they have a general test that they give to
all the students to see if they should go00:10:33
to university.00:10:35
They call it the SATs, but you don't need
to know that.00:10:38
But it's just a general test through America
that everyone does to go into university and,00:10:42
depending on your score, you can go to a better
and better school, and they found that the00:10:47
people who actually wrote in cursive outperformed
not by millions, but outperformed or did better00:10:52
than the people who printed, and I'm not even
talking about typing, they just noticed that00:10:57
these guys did better than these guys.00:10:59
It's the same information, it's just they
did it differently and gave their brain an00:11:03
opportunity to work a little harder, to learn
a little more.00:11:07
So, I'm suggesting for you that when you do
notes, try to write in cursive.00:11:10
Here's a little secret: once you get good
at cursive, it's actually faster, because00:11:14
you flow, so you can write more.00:11:16
Oh, who would have thought?00:11:18
Like... raining in here, sweat dripping.00:11:22
Okay, anyway.00:11:23
The next one, we've talked about this and
there, as I said, in the College Board findings,00:11:26
they found the difference between printing
and cursive and an improvement in people's00:11:30
ability to remember the information and score
or do better on tests.00:11:35
That's real-world Super Learning.00:11:37
Next one: Talk to yourself about it.00:11:40
What?00:11:41
Yeah, you're gonna be that person who walks
down the street "So, I gotta get four bags00:11:45
of milk, and then the cat said, and what I
said to my boss..." and people - "They're00:11:50
crazy, crazy!".00:11:52
Yep, become that person.00:11:53
Talk to yourself.00:11:55
I have found that, if I'm reading something
that's an idea and I start speaking about00:11:59
it, the parts that I don't understand, I can't
really talk about, I just get like "Uhhh",00:12:05
and then that tells me to write down in cursive
"I don't understand that and I have to re-do00:12:10
it".00:12:11
I've got to re-study that part because I can't
explain it to myself.00:12:14
Because when I can understand it, I can explain
it to myself.00:12:16
So, talk to yourself about it.00:12:18
Whenever you get confused, that tells you
that is a part you have to go back and study,00:12:22
alright?00:12:23
So, you're finding the holes in your knowledge.00:12:24
So, if it's not increasing the knowledge,
at least it's saying "You really don't know00:12:28
this, you should study it."00:12:29
Now, see this, has the "blah blah", see this,
"blah, blah?"00:12:36
That's me and you right now, or you and I.
Teach someone.00:12:42
I studied martial arts for a number of years,
and one of my teachers used to make all of00:12:46
the instructors teach someone else, so if
you wanted to get a black belt, you had to00:12:50
teach a class at brown belt.00:12:52
When you were teaching, they would look at
your students, and all the mistakes your students00:12:56
made, they would say "Hey, guess what?00:12:59
All the stuff they don't know - you don't
know!00:13:01
That's why they don't know it!00:13:03
You didn't teach it to them."00:13:04
So then you would have to learn this stuff,
get good at it, and teach your students and00:13:08
then they would test you again and then they
would say "Okay, all of the student you taught00:13:11
know this, you must know this material, now
you can go for your black belt test."00:13:16
Simple but effective.00:13:19
What the students don't know, the teacher
must not know, because if the teacher knew00:13:22
it, they would teach it.00:13:24
Teach someone else what you know.00:13:26
It's not even what I just told you that you
can show what you know, you notice there are00:13:31
holes in your knowledge, or you don't really
understand when people confront you with questions,00:13:36
it means they ask you questions like "Why
does that happen?" and you will be able to00:13:40
either go "Well, because dadadadada", or you'll
go "Well, ooh, that's good.00:13:45
Ooh, I don't know."00:13:47
And then you have to go learn.00:13:48
You see, the thing about learning is that
it's not just taking information in, it's00:13:53
understanding that information, being able
to use it, and keeping that information.00:13:58
And also knowing what you don't know.00:14:01
Many people make the mistake of thinking "Because
I know this, this, this, and this, I have00:14:05
a lot of knowledge, or I'm a very smart person.",
but the smartest people look for what they00:14:10
don't know, what they don't understand, because
they know if you understand these things and00:14:15
know these things, there's a greater room
of improvement than just knowing more and00:14:19
more and more, because the holes, or the things
you don't know, end up bringing you down.00:14:23
Cool?00:14:24
So, teaching someone else helps you to fix
those holes, so it's harder to bring you down00:14:28
and you can build on that knowledge to go
higher, faster.00:14:33
And finally, I want to talk about summarizing,
because I haven't done any of that at all,00:14:36
I've just - take information, take information.00:14:38
This is going to happen when we talk about
reading.00:14:43
I've done a couple of videos before about
summarizing for reading and writing, or writing,00:14:49
you know, essays, saying you're summarizing
- it's like the five part essay thing, I said,00:14:51
summarize using one word, because if you can
get a one word and a picture, what you will00:14:56
find is you can get it bigger - a greater
idea, or really be able to give a, what's00:15:05
the word I'm thinking of, an exact idea to
the reader.00:15:07
But, if you can't get it down to one picture,
one word, then it's just a bunch of babbling00:15:12
or meandering, which means going around like
this without getting a focus on what you're00:15:17
saying.00:15:18
And I was saying that, for using a title or
the idea for a paragraph, get it into one00:15:22
word and then expand upon it.00:15:24
Well, the same thing is when you're reading.00:15:26
Read, stop at the end of a paragraph, try
to get a picture in your head, write it out.00:15:30
And that word or picture should express what
the paragraph's about.00:15:33
And if you can do that, two things happen.00:15:36
Number one, if you summarize in the margin,
means the corner, you can maybe have 10, 1500:15:40
words which is much easier to remember than
10 or 15 pages, that will summarize the idea00:15:45
of what you've read.00:15:47
It also gives you a break to make sure you
understand what you've read before you go00:15:50
to the next part.00:15:51
Do you remember, it talked about building?00:15:53
Another word for building when we say going
on top of each other is called "scaffolding".00:15:56
So, you're scaffolding, if you get this and
understand it then read it and summarize and00:16:00
read and summarize, you're making sure along
the way, you always understand, so when you00:16:04
get to the ideas that they're trying to teach
you, it's easier for you to get the big, global00:16:09
picture, because all the way along, you've
been making sure you understood.00:16:14
Many people read a lot of pages, get to the
end and say "Hm, I don't understand what I00:16:18
just read.", and have to read again, which
is a complete waste of your time.00:16:22
And remember, with Super Learning, we're trying
to minimize the time and maximize the learning.00:16:28
So, summarize in the margins when you read.00:16:31
Cool?00:16:32
So, I'm hoping you got at least one, two,
or three tools under your belt you can use00:16:36
right away.00:16:37
Eventually, you should try to use all seven,
but I'd like to give you - can you believe00:16:41
it - a test, because if it's about Super Learning,
I want to know what you just learned.00:16:47
Alright, quiz time!00:16:50
You are Super Learnified.00:16:52
That's not a word, but the whole point about
that video or this video was you're learning00:16:58
and you're Super Learning, so let's see what
information you've actually learned and you00:17:03
keep, because learning without keeping the
information is a waste of time, alright?00:17:09
You don't want to burn your hand on a fire
on a regular basis and have to re-learn - bsh,00:17:13
ahh, bsh, ahh!00:17:16
So, first question I want to do because we're
going to do a quiz is this: here are the five00:17:20
questions and I want to see what information
you have retained.00:17:24
Retaining means "to keep".00:17:27
Number one: Printing is the best way to remember
information.00:17:34
Hmm, I have my handy markers here.00:17:41
Red is for "false", blue is for "true", which
one will it be?00:17:46
False!00:17:47
But James, you told us that writing is better
than typing with our fingers!00:17:53
No, I said that's okay, but the best thing
to do is use cursive.00:17:57
Cursive is that line, when we were drawing
like this, like "See", like that, right?00:18:04
So, cursive is the best way.00:18:07
Printing is okay, it's better than typing
information in, but cursive is the superior.00:18:11
So, let me open these caps so I don't go "click,
click, click" every five seconds, alright?00:18:17
Next: The article about cursive - see, you
could have looked here, haha -The article00:18:24
about cursive was in Psychology Today.00:18:30
Oh no, it was written in, where did we write
it?00:18:38
New York Times.00:18:39
They were looking at the SATs, right?00:18:41
So, this one is also false.00:18:47
What about this one here: Summarizing when
reading helps to improve memory.00:18:57
True.00:19:02
We said when you summarize, it gives you the
ability to get the ideas clearer in your head00:19:10
and then scaffold, remember we talked about
scaffolding, putting one idea on top of another,00:19:14
to go higher and higher in knowledge?00:19:16
That's why.00:19:19
Number four: Reading out loud is for children
and is best avoided by advanced students.00:19:25
You know, when children read and they're like
"The cat and the dog went to the store.00:19:33
The cat got hit by a car."00:19:35
Ooh, that's a bad story.00:19:37
So, is it just for children?00:19:44
This is false.00:19:47
Why is it false?00:19:50
Remember what we said, we're trying to get
- there are three different ways of learning00:19:54
for people, kinesthetic, auditory, and visual.00:19:59
By reading out loud, we're engaging or we're
using our auditory sense, right?00:20:04
So, we have been looking visual, reading,
remember we talked about auditory?00:20:09
And then moving your mouth being in the kinesthetic
sense.00:20:11
It's not just for children, it's for advanced
students as well, to help clarify what's in00:20:16
their brain and make sure they understand
because you have time to think about it, hmm.00:20:21
Number five: Teaching others helps with remembering
information and finding out what you need00:20:28
to relearn.00:20:31
True or false?00:20:38
True.00:20:41
When you teach others, you remember the gaps.00:20:44
A gap is a space in your knowledge.00:20:47
People have a tendency, or they will ask you
questions, which is a good thing because when00:20:52
they ask you questions, you get to think and
think "Do I know the answer to that question,00:20:56
or do I understand the material well enough
to answer that question?"00:21:01
That helps you learn, because you will go
back, study and research, and if there are00:21:05
holes in your knowledge, you will improve
it, and if you can explain it well enough00:21:10
that people understand, it says that you have
learned the material very well, and that is00:21:14
an excellent thing, because really, that's
what learning is about, improving yourself00:21:18
so you go to the next level, and also challenging
yourself, because it's not just about English.00:21:24
This can be used for anything you're learning,
from medicine, sports, and English.00:21:28
Now, I'm going to give you the bonus.00:21:32
These things aren't exactly, well, none of
these are about English and they don't need00:21:36
to be, but these things will help you learn
English faster, so you'll, you know, you'll00:21:41
grow faster with it, and that's the point
of the exercise.00:21:43
The first one is: get some sleep.00:21:46
A lot of people are walking around with four
to five hours sleep and they're so proud of00:21:50
themselves, like "I only need four hours sleep."00:21:53
Heh, but in the long run, they've done a lot
of medical studies saying dementia and Alzheimer's,00:21:58
which are diseases of the mind ,the less sleep
you get, the more you are able - you will00:22:02
probably get Alzheimer's or dementia which
means less mind capacity or not being able00:22:07
to think when you're older.00:22:08
So, when you really need your brains, you
won't have them, so get some sleep, okay?00:22:14
When you sleep, your brain actually stores
information.00:22:18
It deletes or gets rid of information that
you don't need to have, like how many times00:22:21
did you open a door today, and it looks for
the information that's important and it keeps00:22:25
it.00:22:26
So, the more sleep you get, the better your
brain can actually do that, so the learning00:22:29
you've done today, you can keep for tomorrow,
but when you don't sleep, you run the risk00:22:34
of losing everything, okay?00:22:37
So, get some sleep, that's the first thing
you should do.00:22:40
Now, here's a hint that you should do before
you go to bed.00:22:42
So, five to ten minutes before you go to bed,
try to review what you've done in the day.00:22:48
So, if you were working on grammar, try to
think of what grammar points you learned,00:22:52
what were the important points, what were
the exceptions.00:22:56
Here's why: they have found that, when you
go to sleep, the things that are on your mind00:23:01
will be played out in your mind when you have
what they call REM sleep, or rapid eye movement,00:23:05
you're dreaming.00:23:06
So, you can influence that and help with keeping
your memories by thinking about it before.00:23:12
If it's important, your brain will take it
in and, as you sleep, go over it.00:23:15
Not bad, huh?00:23:17
5-10 minutes, you study for hours, take 5
or 10 minutes before you go to bed and try00:23:21
to remember.00:23:22
I would do the same thing if I were doing
Spanish or German, try to say a few things00:23:26
of what's important and go to bed.00:23:28
You might have a dream in English, that's
not such a bad thing, and you'll be practicing00:23:33
while you sleep, yes?00:23:34
You get the extra practice in while you get
that extra sleep.00:23:39
Last thing is exercise.00:23:40
I can't remember my Latin, but I think it's
"Mens sana in corpore sano" which means a00:23:45
sound mind and a sound body, old Latin.00:23:49
Exercise is the event of making your feel
good, giving you the energy to learn, but00:23:53
also because the body is fit, when you're
healthy, everything works better, including00:23:58
your brain.00:23:59
It is part of your body, after all, so if
you're getting better circulation, better00:24:02
breathing, your mind works better.00:24:04
It's clearer and works faster, so it makes
learning easier to do, because really, when00:24:10
we do Super Learning tips, it's to make learning
easier so you can learn more, retain it, and00:24:15
enjoy what you've learned by being able to
use it.00:24:17
So, go out there and exercise.00:24:20
It doesn't mean lift millions of weights or
do CrossFit, it means take a walk in nature,00:24:25
alright, walk the stairs, don't take the elevator,
because the little things make a huge difference,00:24:31
alright?00:24:32
So, get some exercise.00:24:33
Believe it or not, all of these things have
to do with learning English, because they00:24:37
make you a better person, and making you a
better person gives you the ability to learn00:24:40
more.00:24:41
Homework, yay!00:24:42
Finally, we've got our homework we've got
to do.00:24:45
I want you to take two of the concepts that
you've learned today, take just two of them,00:24:49
and use them to re-learn the lesson I've just
taught you.00:24:51
Huh, no!00:24:52
I've told you before that when I had teachers,
they made us teach students, and what we couldn't00:24:57
teach, we didn't understand.00:24:59
So I'm not saying take seven, take two, go
out to a friend and explain these concepts00:25:04
and see how well they understand.00:25:06
If they're like "I don't get it, why this
and that?", re-watch the video because that's00:25:10
your studying.00:25:11
Because I'm looking at it this way, if I can
get you to look at this again and again and00:25:15
start teaching it as much as possible, three
months, six months, you'll be learning everything00:25:19
you do a little bit better, English, of course,
your first choice, but if you're getting better00:25:25
in every way, you'll learn better and you'll
have another reason to come back and learn00:25:28
more.00:25:29
And on that note, what I want you to do is
I want you to go to www.engvid.com , where00:25:37
you can learn about other lesson I've done
on how to learn faster or learn better.00:25:41
You can learn lessons in grammar, reading
and writing, and there are other fabulous00:25:45
teachers you can learn from.00:25:46
