let’s jump into today’s topic technology
meets techniques the 7 tested timeless

ways to learn a language so for each of
the 7 you get a learning technique and

the technology this technology will help
you learn how to apply the technique

these learning methods and tools will
help you get fluent faster guaranteed

alright the first learning technique
here is having talking points and the

technology for it
vocabulary lists so one big problem most

beginners have is you run out of things
to say your vocabulary is limited you

can’t talk about your interests and you
can’t last long in a conversation and

the solution talking points or topics to
talk about like whether food or hobbies

just imagine a conversation you start
with greetings you move on to what you

did over the weekend weekend
that’s one talking point you went to a

restaurant that’s another talking point
you can explore if you know all the

words and phrases for these points you
can speak more of the language so how do

you build a list of talking points use
our free vocab lists our vocab lists

give you all of the relevant words and
phrases for specific topics sports

travel food hobbies holidays daily
routines if you want to talk about food

pull up the relevant vocab lists and
you’ll quickly learn all the necessary

words phrases and questions now you can
use food as a talking point in a

conversation then you can jump over to
weather or sports the more talking

points you have the more you’ll be able
to speak number 2 shadowing a powerful

way to speak more of the language the
technology here is the line by line

dialogue shadowing is simply repeating
what you hear you can apply this

technique with any resource that has
audio but if you’re using our lessons

listen to a lesson dialogue read along
and try to read out loud and shadow the

native speaker this is a proven
technique that will seriously improve

your speaking and the line-by-line
dialogue tool makes it easy for you to

listen and shadow one line at a time
this way you’re not overwhelmed by a

fast native level conversation okay
technique number three building your own

language profile the technology you’ll
want for this is the word bank first

what’s a language profile a language
profile is your personal list of words

and phrases that are relevant to you
what do I mean by that let’s say you’re

20 years old you’ll want to talk about
school your life your goals your weekend

plans you’ll want to learn slang and if
you’re 40 you don’t want to talk about

school right you may want to talk about
your kids your work and vacations so a

language learning profile is a list of
words and phrases relevant to you your

age where you’re from your culture your
interests and your passions if you’re

passionate about baseball then your
profile would have a list of words and

phrases about the sport so how do you
build a profile if you’re using our site

use the word bank this is your personal
collection of words when you come across

new words or phrases in our lessons or
vocab lists you can save them to the

word bank and the result is you have a
collection of words and phrases that

match your interests and lifestyle your
language learning profile number four

spaced repetition learning a great way
to learn new words fast the technology

that helps you apply this method is
flashcards

but first what spaced repetition
learning imagine you’re sitting in front

of a teacher they’re quizzing you on
vocabulary by showing you flashcards

with the word on the front and the
answer on the back if you don’t know a

word you’ll see it again today and
tomorrow and again and again until you

get it right but if you get it right
you’ll see it maybe in four days then

seven days then in 14 days that’s how
spaced repetition works you review words

over a spaced amount of time so you
never forget them this is a powerful

method for memorizing new vocab and
phrases but you don’t have to sort words

and force yourself to review at later
dates that’s where the technology comes

in the flashcards if you’re using our
website just head over to our space

repetition of flashcards to take
advantage of this learning method

the fifth technique focus on the high
frequency words or the most common words

first the technology the mm core word
lists a list of the mm must know words

and phrases so why is this technique
powerful well the fact is there are tons

of words out there that you don’t need
to know if you’re a beginner you need to

learn hello and how are you and not
random words like aardvark and cement

and with the mm core word list you get
2,000 carefully selected words and

phrases broken down by category and this
is more than enough for conversational

fluency you can learn the top 100 words
first then the top 200 300 and so on

until you know them all remember you can
use flashcards or the word bank to study

them number six
learning with timely relevant and

cultural lessons the technology the free
daily dose of language app for the

iPhone iPad and Android let’s say today
is a holiday like Valentine’s Day or

something seasonal like the start of
spring something everyone knows and

talks about can you talk about it in
your target language the truth is most

learners can’t they’re not getting
timely relevant lessons from their

textbooks or apps but with a daily dose
of language app you get timely lessons

holiday lessons and cultural lessons to
improve your language and if you can

talk to a native speaker about a holiday
or a cultural point you’re making some

serious language progress
what makes this tools so powerful is

that it also keeps you on track with
daily reminders you can download our

daily dose of language app for free on
the site or search for it on the App

Store or Google Play
all right the 7th technique is getting

feedback from a native the technology
one-on-one learning with your Premium

Plus teacher so without a doubt getting
feedback and corrections is the best

language practice you can get if you
have a Premium Plus plan you can send

questions have casual exchanges or just
practice with your teacher

they’ll send corrections and feedback so
that you’re always improving your

teacher will also send you a
assignments and they’ll hold you

accountable you can also record yourself
and your teacher will do a voice

analysis they’ll tell you just how close
you are to a native speaker and how to

improve and that’s it I’ll write
everyone in the last monthly review we

asked you to submit a video or audio
file of yourself speaking the language

introducing yourself in the language so
thank you to all of you that sent in

submissions you’ve all received a

easily speak with my colleagues through
English with the help of your YouTube

videos and website so I give you a big
thank you books and watching English

reading my louder books reading is one

of my biggest hobby but English reading
is possible by you guys only thank you
