THINK AND SPEAK IN ENGLISH How To Talk About Your Daily Life Fluently In English

hey in today’s lesson i am going to

teach you how to finally think and speak

in english i’m going to explain the

connection give you a simple formula

that will help you finally start

speaking like a native english speaker

are you ready

well then i am teacher tiffany let’s

jump right in all right so the first

thing you have to understand is the 5ws

method that’s right we must first start

off by thinking in english using the

five w’s who what when where and why so

let’s say we’re talking about our daily

life and we’re going to start with our

morning routine

look at this man he’s working out hard

but we want to describe what he’s doing

like a native english speaker so we must

think in english

who is he his name is mike he’s 50 years

old

what is mike doing mike is working out

hard

when

at 6 00 am

every morning

where

at a large gym not too far from his

house

and why

he learned the importance of discipline

from working on a farm and the

importance of staying in shape from his

military background

so again what have we done we have

thought in english we saw what was

happening this man was building muscles

and he does it every morning this is his

morning routine and we use the five w’s

so now how do we speak in english about

his morning routine so once again we

have the five w’s here organized who

what when where and why

which will lead us to speaking about his

morning routine watch this read along

with me

i am 50 years old but i still work out

hard at 6 00 a.m every morning

i usually exercise at a large gym

not too far from my house

people always say my consistency is

impressive honestly i learned the

importance of discipline from working on

a farm and the importance of staying in

shape from my time in the military you

see what just happened right

using the five w’s we thought about his

morning routine and then we were able to

speak

think and then speak now i want to break

down some of the words some of the

vocabulary words within this speaking

portion but i want to remind you to use

the five w’s to talk about your own

morning routine now i see a word in here

that maybe you don’t know the first word

is

consistency

good after me again

consistency

excellent now the word consistency just

means the quality of always behaving or

performing in a similar way or of always

happening in a similar way so let me

explain something to you really quickly

about this word

remember

who i am

your english teacher right so every

sunday i make it a point to upload an

english lesson sundays at 8 a.m eastern

right so i want to do it on a regular

basis my behavior my pattern is

uploading english lessons for you on

sundays

so i am trying to practice consistency

makes sense right you got it now maybe

you have a little bit of trouble with

the pronunciation i want to remind you

to download the english with tiffany app

within the app there are many lessons

and courses but i have a specific course

on pronunciation that will help you so

you can download that course uh you can

download the app

all right so consistency now let’s go

back again and look at what was said the

next word was

impressive

impressive so after me

impressive excellent again

impressive

good job now this word impressive is

also very important if an object or

achievement is impressive

you admire or respect it

usually because it is special important

or very large so for example me

when i think about you

as a student as an english learner

learning a second language or a third

language and for many of you a fourth

language

english is not your mother tongue

i am impressed your abilities are

impressive why you are learning another

language you are so intelligent so

that’s an achievement you are very

impressive makes sense right so again we

said that mike’s morning routine is

impressive all right now there’s another

one that i want us to look at very

quickly the other one was

discipline

again

discipline

excellent all right now what does the

word discipline actually mean it’s the

ability to control yourself or other

people

even in difficult situations so

maybe your favorite dessert is ice cream

when you see the ice cream you want to

eat it all but you’re on a diet you’re

trying to lose weight so you have to

be disciplined you have to control

yourself from eating all of the ice

cream makes sense right in english we

say discipline are you a very

disciplined person let us know in the

comment section alright so we have

discipline now once again looking at

what was said to describe his morning

routine we have all of the information

and we’re able to speak about his

morning routine because we first thought

about his morning routine using the five

w’s who what when where and why now

before we move to the afternoon routine

i want you in the comments section to

write about your personal morning

routine now remember again using the

thought section thinking in english you

must first again say who what when where

and why so let us know about your

moaning routine in the comment section

alright

here we go let’s move on to the

afternoon routine again you’re going to

notice this pattern think speak think

speak think using the five w’s and then

you’ll be able to speak fluently in

english here we go afternoon routine

let’s look at this afternoon routine

maybe you’re at work and you have to

have lots of meetings with your

co-workers so who

my team members and i we are web

designers

what

go to a team meeting in the afternoon

when around 2 p.m in the afternoon

where

in the big conference room down the hall

from my office

why

to discuss how we will create all of the

images layouts and videos for a new

corporate website so once again what did

we do we thought about the afternoon

routine who what when where and why we

are organizing our thoughts about this

period of time you can do it for any

situation now we’ve thought about it

again we have the five w’s very clearly

broken down for the afternoon routine

so how would we now speak about the

afternoon routine here we go

this is how we would say all of that

information

i am a web designer and i work with a

great team

got it almost every day we have a team

meeting at around 2 p.m in the afternoon

got it when

our team meetings are in the big

conference room down the hall from my

office got it where we need to discuss

how we will create all of the images

layouts and videos for a new corporate

website got it i explained why so

because we thought about our afternoon

routine five w’s we were able to speak

fluently in english about our afternoon

routines again

think and speak

simple formula use the five w’s and

bow you’ll start sounding like a native

english speaker now within our answer

there are about three things that i want

to explain to you so here we go

i want to explain the first one the

first one is

at around let me take this off the

screen very quickly at around now this

means near or close to

approximately and it usually refers to a

numerical value or point in time so for

example

let’s say you’re gonna have a pot you’re

gonna have a party

all right so you’re gonna have a party

right and you say hey guys my party

starts at 3 p.m everyone’s like okay

i’ll be there but then one of your

friends says oh my goodness i have to

work that day and i get off at 3 p.m but

i’ll rush there and i think i can get

there at around

3 45 it means approximately i’m going to

try to get there at that time

in english we use at around so again

look at how we used it in this situation

we said we have a team meeting at around

2 p.m meaning approximately

makes sense right okay now what about

down the hall from i said down the hall

from now this is also something we use

on a regular basis so

down the hall from means it specifies a

location along the hall like if you’re

in a building there’s a hallway so down

the hall from means you’re talking about

a certain place along the hallway it

means further along the hall from a

specific location i’m in this spot but

it’s

further down from me it’s down the hall

from dot dot dot so

my office is down the hall from my

boss’s office

the bathroom is down the hall from the

conference room you see what’s happening

right you’re telling where something is

in relation to something else in english

we say down the hall from so in this

example speaking about his afternoon

routine her afternoon routine we said

our meetings are in the big conference

room

down the hall from my office makes sense

right okay now there was one more that i

wanted to explain it was

corporate

corporate now again after me for

pronunciation corporate

excellent now we saw how we use this we

said the last sentence we need to

discuss how we will create all of the

images layouts and videos for a new

corporate website all right so what does

corporate mean corporate actually means

relating to a large company so think

about apple i love apple computers i

love apple products apple is a huge

company

now the main office could be referred to

as the corporate office or the

headquarters so corporate just refers to

a large company so when we explained the

afternoon routine we said they meet to

discuss what they’re going to do for the

large company website or the corporate

website makes sense right so now we

understand corporate so again

we were able to speak about the

afternoon routine like a native english

speaker very fluently simply because we

first thought about it in english one

more time

who

what

when where and why all of these pieces

of information

were included in our response when we

spoke about the afternoon routine

so what about the evening routine all

right so here we go evening routine

maybe you enjoy hanging out with your

friends so we have to start with again

the who

my closest friends and i

they’re my elementary school friends

what we go out to eat

when

every thursday at 7 p.m

where

popular restaurants in our area

why we are all foodies and we enjoy

spending time with each other after work

now i want to pause really quickly and

emphasize something again

this phase this step this stage is very

simple it doesn’t matter what level you

are in english you can think of who you

are with

what you did very simply where you were

why and when again the thinking portion

is simple breaking it down using the

five w’s right

now we have everything that you do in

the evening with your friends having a

great time now we need to

speak

in english about your evening routine so

here we go

evening routine using all of the

information we gathered from the 5ws

my closest friends and i have known each

other since elementary school usually we

try to hang out every thursday at 7 pm

we go out to eat at popular restaurants

in our area because

we are all foodies but more importantly

we truly enjoy spending time with each

other after work now you know how

natural that sounded right but look i

just used the five w’s and you can do

the same thing to sound like a native

english speaker now there are a few

words and expressions that i’d like to

go over with you the first one is hang

out after me hang out

excellent now let me explain what hang

out actually means here we go it means

to spend time relaxing or socializing

informally or to spend a lot of time in

a place or with someone hey spend time

with your friends at a restaurant i used

to enjoy cooking for my friends when i

lived in south korea i loved it and i

would invite them over and we would hang

out spend time together so in the

comments section i want you to tell us

where do you like to hang out do you

like to hang out at the mall at your

friend’s house maybe you like to go to a

cafe

where do you like to hang out let us

know in the chat section all right so we

say hang out in english so again looking

at it what do we see we my closest

friends and i usually try to hang out

every thursday at 7 00 pm

now i want us to look at the next one

go out to eat you may have heard this

one or you may not have this just means

again to eat at a restaurant or away

from one’s home so i mentioned earlier

that i love cooking but sometimes

it’s nice to go to a restaurant to let

somebody else cook for me to let

somebody else cook for myself and my

friends so we go out we’re not inside we

go out to eat let us know in the chat

section where do you like to go out to

eat maybe in your country there are some

amazing restaurants where do you like to

go out to eat i love going to indian

restaurants as you all know i love

indian food and mexican food as well so

we say go out to eat in english and

again we saw we said go out to eat at

popular restaurants now the last one i

want to explain is a popular one

foodie

you got it f sound front teeth bottom

lip after me

foodie

excellent all right now let me explain

what a foodie is a foodie is a person

with a particular interest in food or a

person who loves a food

and is very interested in different

types of food yes i consider myself to

be a foodie i love so many different

types of food i love indian i love

haitian i love mexican i love

mediterranean because the food is

delicious so i consider myself to be a

foodie because i’m so interested in food

maybe you’re a foodie as well alright so

we say foodie in english and we

explained that my friends and i are

foodies makes sense right okay so again

what we did was we were able to explain

talk about speak english fluently about

my or your or their evening routine

simply

simply because we first

thought about it in english who

what when

where and why and then we were able to

give the response like a native english

speaker now honestly i hope you enjoyed

this lesson i hope you learned a lot and

i hope you put this into practice you

can do it i want to encourage you all

you have to do is think in english like

a native english speaker using the 5ws

alright i’ll see you next week but as

always remember to speak english

you still there

ha ha i know you are and you know what

time it is come on and join me it’s

story time

hey i said it’s story time

all right

today’s story is about

food that’s right i explained earlier in

the lesson that i am a foodie i love

food and i have a friend who is also a

foodie and we actually became close

friends because of that so let me

explain what happened

so i had been in korea for about eight

years and i came home just for a short

break and i was going to go back to

south korea to finish my last year and a

half there

now when i was going back i was told by

the office like the head office that

they were going to place me at a new

school a school i had never been to so i

was a bit apprehensive because i didn’t

know anyone there and all of my roots my

korean family members lived in seoul for

those that know about seoul it’s the

major city in korea and they wanted to

move me to the outskirts of the city

look up the word outskirts on the

outside kind of like the suburbs but a

very quiet area

and i said you know what it’s okay i

prayed about it and i decided to go so

when i got there there were only

i think

three or four other korean teachers and

i think two or three other

foreign teachers like americans or

native english speakers it was a very

small school i left a school that had 10

and another school that had 20. so this

was a very small school

and in the school among the korean

teachers there was one teacher and i’ll

say her name annie she may watch this

video her name was annie

and she seems really nice she seemed

very organized and she also seemed to be

a very good teacher just from observing

her when i first got there and i was

like okay yeah she seems basically about

business and i am a person that is about

business i take my job seriously and she

seemed to be that type of person as well

so anyways annie approached me one day

and said tiffany you know would you mind

teaching me the bible now we had known

each other for maybe a month we weren’t

close but we saw each other every day at

work and she recognized that i enjoyed

teaching the bible to my students so i

said sure no no worries she knew i spoke

korean and she also spoke english well

but she said hey i think it’ll be nice

to study the bible with you in english

and if i have questions i can ask you in

korean

sure no problem so we started studying

the bible we had a great time she loves

god i love god and we had great

conversations so we had been studying

with each other for maybe about two or

three weeks and again i noticed that she

was a very hard worker i admired her

work ethic but that was the extent we

didn’t do anything after work we just

saw each other at work very cordial very

nice to each other

so one day annie approached me when we

were in the staff room and said hey

tiffany do you want to go out to eat for

lunch

and i was like

okay sure you know i was new to the area

again i’m a foodie but she and i had

never talked about food she said you

want to go out to lunch i said sure she

said yeah there’s an indian restaurant

not too far from here now remember i

told you my favorite food is indian

so inside i said oh

yeah but outside i said oh that sounds

nice

now annie knows me very well now so my

responses are a lot different but you

know i didn’t know her that well and i

said oh okay you know that’s nice let’s

go i was excited

so anyways the next day we decided and

we went to the restaurant so we get to

the restaurant and again we’re just

talking great conversation it was really

easy to talk to her we had great

conversation and we talked about life

you know my experiences her experiences

and then the food came

now when the food came remember i am a

foodie i love indian food so i know what

indian food is good and what indian food

is not good so the plates arrived and

like there was the steam coming up from

the curry and then i saw the naan and i

was getting excited because my nose

was happy i could smell that the

seasonings

they were correct right so but again i

was still talking to annie and we were

just talking

so the food came you know we prayed over

the food we you know kind of like wiped

our hands off

and i took a piece of the naan and i

dipped it into the curry and when i put

it to my mouth i said

it was y’all it was good and i was kind

of enjoying it

and in that moment

i heard annie do the same thing like

this food is good now again a lot of the

conversation was happening in korean

because we switched over when we were at

the restaurant so i looked up and i said

this food is good isn’t it she said whoa

yes this food is good and i realized oh

my goodness she’s a foodie too

needless to say fast forward wow has it

been four years four years and she’s one

of my closest friends we enjoyed that

meal and she realized how much i love

food and we just talked about oh my

goodness the seasoning the naan is good

the curry is good this is good and we

realized how much we love food

so the next week we went out to lunch

again and the following week we went out

to lunch again and we kept going to

different restaurants we would make

plans to go and travel we would go 45

minutes in the middle of the day to go

get some delicious food and rush back to

work for the afternoon we loved food and

we bonded over food of course our love

for god as well but she became one of my

closest friends and we are still close

to this day all because we found out

that we both were foodies

now again guys you all know how much i

enjoy food i want to know are you a

foodie if you are what’s your favorite

food put it in the comment section annie

if you’re watching i can’t wait till

this pandemic is over so we can eat
