DO I WANT TO GET MARRIED QA with Teacher Tiff Episode 3

hey guys welcome to this week’s episode

of Q&A with teacher tip if this is your

first time here my name is Tiffany and I

love teaching English to students just

like you around the world now in this

series I literally open up and I answer

your questions so you can learn more

about Who I am what I like and I can

also give you more useful English tips

now if you want to submit questions all

you have to do is become a member of my

Academy by going to let’s jump right in

calm or you can click the link in the

description I take questions each week

from my Academy students and I answer

them each episode so let’s jump right in

alright so our first question comes from

Nemo ally Nemo says hi teacher Tiffany

what’s going on Nemo can someone learn a

new language in only six months I’ve

heard this many times but I want to know

your opinion now Nemo I’m very happy you

asked this question because this is a

question I have heard many times from

different students and the question

actually is coming from a different

question

let me explain students usually put a

period of time on their English language

journey because they have another

important goal I’ve received this

question from students when I was in

South Korean it’s a teacher all right I

need to learn English in three months I

need to be perfect

can you tutor me teacher come on teacher

and I would smile because they were

asking me to teach them the entire

English language that took me my entire

life

in three months but then as we continue

to talk I realized that what they

actually were asking was teacher I have

a big exam and in order to pass this

exam I need to learn English

aha then we continued teach

this exam will help me get a better job

so basically the student needed a better

job but they needed to pass this test

and the test was in English so they

should have said teacher is it possible

for me to prepare for this English test

in three months and I would have said

definitely so that’s the thing with this

question Nemo you can’t become fluent

like a native English speaker in six

months think about it for me I’m an

American I speak English it’s my first

language but I also I’m still learning

new expressions and new slang terms all

the time for example and a few months

ago for those that follow me on

Instagram you’ve probably learned this

slang I learned this langu Qi I was like

what’s good

now Gucci just means good or something

is really nice but the younger

generation like I’m not young anymore

the younger generation I know I look

young y’all but I’m not that young the

younger generation they use words like

Gucci and in other words I was like what

in the world is go Chee so they had to

teach me what that word actually means

that slang term so I’m still learning

now this is to encourage you you see I’m

still learning but I’m okay you need to

speak to pick a specific goal what’s

your goal is your goal to be able to

speak English when you’re traveling

somewhere okay yes in six months that is

possible because you can learn travel

English you can learn English

specifically used when you fly on an

airplane when you get to a hotel to a

hotel or or when you’re actually going

out to a restaurant there are lots of

English terms and vocabulary words that

we as native English speakers use in

these various situations and in a six

month period you can master them that’s

the thing you don’t want to speed

through your English journey because

when you speed you just create more

frustration for yourself

so again pick a specific goal then add a

time to that go a time period I want to

be able to speak in English or pass an

English interview and I want to prepare

for it for three months okay

picked my

specific goal added my time period you

can prepare for an English interview in

three months it’s possible I have an

e-book actually where I teach you how to

do that in my Academy again you can join

mentor the link in the description but

my point is you have to pick a specific

goal instead of just picking a specific

time the goal is more important than the

time goal then the time period connect

them but a specific goal so great

question Nemo and also those that are

watching I hope you understand what I’m

saying you all have different goals

related to English don’t just make a

general broad statement I want to speak

English fluently I get it I I wanted to

learn Korean and speak Korean but excuse

me you have to get more focused and that

will help you excuse me again develop

your English skill so great question

email all right we have another one the

next question comes from Ali hey Ali

good to see you he says teacher how are

you doing I’m doing great Ali you know

in the midst of all that’s going on I’m

doing amazing thank you so much for

asking

he said now he has two questions for me

first he says what are some successful

methods you use and how do you make sure

your students understand you now Ali

this is something that as a teacher I

really put a lot of thought and time

into so again when I was teaching in

Korea had thousands of students each

student was different each student had

different goals so as a teacher now this

is in the past what I would do is I

would get to know each student my goal

was always to make my students my

classes a family I wanted them to be

comfortable with each other so we’d have

a great time laughing joking we get

emotional sometimes and I wanted them to

express themselves in an environment

they were comfortable in as I tried to

develop this atmosphere of family I was

also learning about each individual

student so let’s say Michael wanted to

pass an interview at his job and Sally

just needed to learn English because she

wanted to go on vacation

so I figured out everyone’s individual

goal or desire and then I figured out a

commonality what’s the common the common

point amongst all of these desires and I

taught that point so for example you all

are on YouTube right now and yes I have

not had the opportunity to meet you yet

personally but I read your comments I

see some of your emails and I also see

some of you active in the community we

have for the Academy members a private

community and I analyze your comments I

analyze your requests and I try to see

what’s the common what’s the the common

the common thread through all of the

comments or the requests and that’s how

I develop a lesson for you all on

YouTube so you guys have told me you

enjoy the lessons and I’m so happy to

hear that but there’s always a method to

my madness

oh that’s an expression for you guys a

method to my madness because I want to

make sure I’m helping you achieve your

goals

so Olli your basic question was how do I

find successful methods and I’m sure

that you guys would understand them well

it’s because you guys are the starters I

look to you I see what you need what

goals you’re trying to achieve and then

I try to develop plans related to

English that will help you achieve those

goals so Ally great question great

question now your next question is is it

possible to get for a full scholarship

in the United States yes but I will say

this as an American

the scholarship process like applying

for a scholarship it can be tricky it

can be yeah it can be tricky it’s kind

of a long process now I’ve had friends

who were from other countries and they

studied in America so it is possible but

I’ll say this you need to look up

international scholarships or

scholarships for international students

and one of the keys is being able to

write a good essay now you guys know I

have the lesson where I teach you how to

improve your English writing skills so

Ally I want you to find that video again

amongst my youtube videos and practice

what I teach in that video and also

since you’re in the Academy you can see

the other resources as well that will

help you improve your writing skills

that’s the key when you’re applying for

a scholarship you need to make sure

you’re writing a good essay all right so

hopefully that helped you Ali now the

next question comes from shel hey shel

good to see you all right

shel says hey teacher what’s your

favorite bible verse that you want to

share with us a Bible verse that can

help me as I’m studying for my upcoming

exam to embark upon my license as a u.s.

nurse great question now I will say this

first I want to thank all of the nurses

around the world because we understand

and know how difficult your job is right

now with this virus situation so thank

you so much

and she’ll thank you for your desire to

be a nurse and be licensed now your

question is do I know a Bible verse one

of my favorite Bible verses that will

help you as you’re studying and you know

I do so let me get my Bible quote on one

second all right so

proverbs 2 verse 6 it’s a very useful

verse for when you’re studying it says

again proverbs 2 verse 6 says for the

Lord giveth wisdom out of his mouth come

with knowledge and understanding so we

have wisdom knowledge and understanding

we need all of these things when we’re

studying and so she’ll you need all

three of these wisdom knowledge and

understanding and God will give them to

you so again look to proverbs chapter 2

and verse 6 hopefully it helps you

alright our next question is from Hatice

Hattie’s I just want to know what you

think about marriage that the done now

we’re getting into it would you prefer

to have kids and a husband or being

alone throughout the rest of your life

all right at ease I’m gonna put my phone

down and answer this question so I am

currently not married but do I want to

be married yes I love kids I want

children and I love you know family life

so let me give you a little bit of

backstory so my family is very close my

parents literally have like the ideal

marriage they they’ve shown my sister

and I how to work in a marriage and how

to show love to each other and overcome

difficulties and all of these things so

I have a good example of what a marriage

should look like and they also showed a

lot of love to my sister and I so I have

all this love that I want to give to

somebody else like I want to have

children so that I can give them the

life that I experienced as well and when

it comes to marriage I want to share my

life with my husband so that we can also

you know raise children together now I

will say this I do have standards so I

have several standards and that refers

standard refers to things that must be

in place before I get married to any man

so first he must be a Christian second

he must love children because I love

children as well

third he must be a hard worker I I can’t

do lazy men no he needs to have a good

work ethic and love to work hard for his

family he needs to be an individual and

what I say he needs to be an individual

I don’t like when guys follow the crowd

like if everybody else is doing

something he’ll just kind of go along no

I need you to be an independent thinker

and be strong enough to do what you need

to do even if everyone else is doing

something else

and last he needs to enjoy laughing and

having a good time laughter really makes

marriage fun so again these are I say my

five top standards again he needs to be

a Christian needs to love kids needs to

be independent needs to be strong and

have his own mind needs to be a hard

worker and he needs to love to laugh so

I am waiting on God to provide me with a

man so please don’t get in the comments

a teacher I’m ready no I’m waiting on

God to send the man he has for me and I

know that he will I trust in God and I

trust that he is developing me into the

woman I need to be for my future husband

and whoever he is I know that God is

developing him at this point in time as

well so yes to answer your question I

look forward to being married I look

forward to sharing

life with a man and also my children and

I’m just waiting patiently as God

develops me and makes me who I need to

be for when I do get married in the

future so let me know from you guys

aren’t curious do you all have certain

standards so I gave you my top five now

even if you’re married already in the

comments section this is kind of a

conversation guys let me know what your

standards were before you got married

what were your standards guys or girls

so guys you can write your standards for

the female you married or want to marry

and ladies you can write your standards

for the man you want to marry or already

married put them in the comments section

it’s gonna start a very interesting

conversation so I’m very curious to know

what your standards are related to your

future spouse alright great question I
