How To Study English in 2020 Your 2020 English Study Planner
are you ready to achieve all of your
goals in 2020 all of your English goals
I mean are you ready to sound like a
native English speaker well in order to
do that you must have a plan now your
plan must include four sections if you
want to really speak like a native
English speaker you need to have these
four sections and I’m gonna teach you
all for today I’m teacher Tiffany let’s
jump right in alright here are the four
sections set design achieve and review
so first set what you want to do is set
all of your goals for the year in this
section you will organize all of the
goals you want to achieve for the year
you will break down each goal and see
what you need to do each month each week
and each day of the year in order to
achieve each English goal now when I say
this is so important this is the most
important thing you need to do you need
to start by listing out the goals you
have for the year now you’ll notice I
have a little bump above my eye I had a
negative reaction to some medicine I
took some supplements I took so don’t
worry I’m okay and it’ll go away but it
is what it is we have to keep going on
with class so again you’re going to set
your goals now let me show you exactly
how to do this okay so here’s what
you’re gonna do this is the page on this
page you need to write the 10 to 20
specific English goals you have for this
year you can also pick some from the
goal suggestions below remember to also
include the exact number you would like
to achieve for each individual goal now
I need to stress this point when you are
setting goals and you want to achieve
something you need to be very specific
so what’s your big goal for the year so
for example I have memorized 1,000 in
lished vocabulary words or read five
English books or even have a
conversation with 12 native English
speakers all of these things are
possible but you have to write them down
so let me
show you what mine looks like okay so my
planner if I was a student again here’s
my page for yearly goals and I wrote
number one read for English books but
you see that I actually wrote out how
many pages I wrote about 200 pages plus
per book which equals 800 pages now why
is this important there needs to be a
number associated with each goal and
this is gonna be important as we move
forward because we’re breaking down the
goals by year month week and day okay so
keep following along so first go read
for English books then I have memorized
2,000 vocabulary words again the number
2000 number three watch 25 English
movies remember these are my yearly
goals okay so these are the yearly goals
you will set for yourself
okay next talk to 25 native English
speakers and finally give 12 speeches in
English alright so now after I’ve done
that I need to move on to the next page
in my journal in my planner on this page
you need to break down your yearly goals
into twelve equal parts these twelve
parts represent the twelve months of the
year so you’ll be able to see what you
need to do each month in order to
achieve your yearly goals remember I
said I’m giving you the tool you need to
accomplish and achieve all of your goals
for 2020 all of your English goals so
again I said you already have your
yearly goals now you need to divide them
by 12 representing the 12 months so let
me show you the equation alright so look
at the bottom right here we have
equation and example so total number of
the individual yearly goal
divided by 12 representing 12 months
equals the number you need to do each
month so at the bottom I put 1020
vocabulary words in the year and divided
that by 12 means I need to memorize 85
vocabulary words each month suddenly it
seems very easy to accomplish this goal
right because
thousand and twenty vocabulary words
whoa that’s a lot but 85 vocabulary
words a month that’s not that bad this
is why it’s so powerful to use these
formulas I’m giving you so that you can
set up your planner for the year okay so
let’s see what mine would look like here
we go so again I have my planner monthly
goals so again number one read for
English books and I said each one needs
to be 200 or more pages which equals 800
which means divided by 12 will be sixty
six point six six now you’ll see I do
the same thing for number two three four
and five but what you’ll also notice is
there are decimals don’t worry
depending on the number you choose when
you start dividing the numbers may start
to look a little complicated but look at
my screen again you can round these
numbers up or down a bit so instead of
sixty six point six six I can say sixty
seven instead of one sixty six point six
six I can say 167 so again you can do
the same thing you can round up or down
okay depending on the number you want to
use okay alright now after I’ve done
that after you’ve done that we need to
move on to the weekly goals so this is
what’s gonna happen
on this page you need to break down your
monthly goals into four equal parts
these four parts represent the four
weeks of each month so you’ll be able to
see what you need to do each week in
order to achieve your yearly goals you
see how we’re going step by step went
from our main yearly goal to now monthly
right before this one now we’re at
weekly so again let’s look back at the
equation the equation is total number of
the individual monthly goal divided by
four representing four weeks equals
number the number you’re gonna do each
week okay so remember I had 85 so 85
vocabulary words in a month divided by
four equals twenty one point two five
vocabulary words each week come on now
twenty one point two five vocabulary
words a week it’s not that bad
number is getting smaller and smaller
and as long as you follow these
equations you will be able to achieve
all of your goals so again let’s see
what my planner looks like okay so in my
planner right here on my page again I
wrote down all the information number
one read for English books number two
memorize two thousand vocabulary words
number three watch twenty five English
movies well let’s look at number two we
started off with two thousand vocabulary
words but again remember broke it down
so now we’re at 167 divided by four
right remember we’re looking at my
personal goal not from the previous
example my personal goal that I wrote in
my planner okay so it says 67 divided by
four equals what I’m sorry 167 divided
by four equals forty one point seven
five and I rounded up to 42 so that
means each week in order to accomplish
my goal of 2000 vocabulary words a year
I need to memorize 42 English vocabulary
words a week again not that bad but now
we have one more step we need to see the
weekly okay so again going back to my
screen right remember we’re still in the
first section right so here we go daily
goals on this page you need to break
down your weekly goals into seven equal
parts these seven parts represent the
seven days of each week so you will be
able to see what you need to do each day
in order to achieve your yearly goals
again the equation total number for the
weekly goal divided by seven
representing seven days equals the
number for each day so again from the
previous example on the page we had
twenty one point two five divided by
seven equals three point zero three now
again what we’re gonna do is go back to
my planner and see what I wrote okay so
here we go again here’s my planner and
let’s see let’s look again at number two
you know what let’s look at number four
talk to 25 native English speakers all
right so you see it says point one four
right so again I can round that up to
one or I can prepare for the
next week or let’s see for example
memorizing the vocabulary words
well now it’s moved down to six per day
again it all depends on the total number
you chose for your yearly goal okay all
right so now let’s go back to my screen
because now we need to move on to the
next section these sections are so
important okay
so moving on to the next section our
next section is design what you’re gonna
do now is design your weekly schedule in
this section you will look at your
weekly schedule in detail and decide how
you would like to organize your days you
will decide when you want to study and
for how long this will help you remain
organized each day of the week so why is
this important you see there are some
days that you are busier than others
let’s say for example you work Monday to
Friday but Mondays are your busiest days
and Thursdays and Fridays are your
lightest days you need to arrange your
schedule so that you know on which days
you can study English more this is gonna
help you be more relaxed to not feel so
stressed about I should have studied
English more today well if you have a
schedule you don’t have to be stressed
because you know on Thursday and
Friday’s you can study a little bit
longer than on Mondays so let me show
you how to do this okay so back to my
screen now here we go
so you’re gonna see these pages weekly
schedule timetable on these pages you
need to organize your schedule for each
day and decide what you will focus on
you can block off sections for work
meals and other tasks this will give you
the ability to see when you actually
have time to study on certain days so
the daily breakdown looking at the page
the day starts at 6:00 a.m. this is
again this is just the way that I
decided to break down the planner but
again you can get the planner the
planner I’m explaining you can get it
the link is right here and you can also
get the link in the description but if
you choose to do your own that’s fine
but my advice is to get the planner
because I’ve already set it up for you
now this day starts at 6:00 a.m.
broken down into one-hour time slots
and then the day ends at 10:00 p.m. so
let’s see my day here we go
so we’re looking at mondays and I say
well on Mondays from 7 to 8 its family
dinner time I have dinner with my family
but from 8 to 9
I want to journal I want to write in my
journal about my day in English so I’m
writing right here that on Mondays from
8 to 9 I’m not doing anything else but
focusing on writing in English in my
journal ok then we have from 9 to 10 I’m
showering and getting ready for bed but
then I also have what’s the special
focus for Mondays I put journal writing
that means on Mondays I’m focused on
writing in my journal I’m looking at my
journal right here again I was an
English student Monday’s are for journal
writing Mondays aren’t for watching
videos in English there it’s not
important for me to worry about that if
I do that that’s ok but I want to make
sure that I’ve written in my journal
that’s what you need to do you need to
focus on certain things for specific
days ok
so now moving on we’re gonna do next is
we need to achieve this is the next
section section 3 achieve your goals by
following your plan in this section you
will start taking action each day of the
week for the next 52 weeks you will
document your goals important events new
English terms new English tips and also
your personal ideas about your day all
in English here’s the deal you want to
speak in English you want to sound like
a native English speaker and you are
amazing you’re watching this video
you’ve taken the time to actually study
and get books but you don’t know what to
do you don’t know how to move forward in
2020 you don’t know rip you don’t really
know how to achieve your goals well this
is what you need to do because this is
gonna break down each day you’re gonna
be able to write down notes so let me
show you how you’re gonna do this for
each day here we go so you’re gonna
start off looking at your month at a
glance on this page you can write down
any important events that will happen
during the month these events may affect
your study plan so you can adjust your
schedule by planning ahead of time this
page will also help
you see your month at a glance for
example write down important events
write down special programs you want to
watch and write down special meetings or
conversations so let me show you my
calendar so for January 2020 this week
today is January 5th Sunday I have this
week blocked off you can see ok January
5th I have a dinner meeting with my best
friend January 8th
going to the movies to see a Hollywood
movie January 10th one on one call with
my English teacher in January 11th a
business trip now why is it important to
do this first you see this is gonna help
you to know wait a minute I know that on
the 8th I’m gonna go watch a movie but
then on the 11th I’m going on a business
trip that means you’re gonna be busy so
you need to rearrange your schedule a
bit for your English study plan so if
you want to memorise let’s say 42
vocabulary words a week you know that on
the 11th when you go to your business
trip you’re probably gonna be too busy
to memorize words and when you go to the
movies you’re probably not gonna have
time either so instead of memorizing
words on those days you can share them
to the other days make sense so that’s
why this is so important to see your
month at a glance first okay now after
you do this what you’re gonna do is look
at your week at a glance on this page
you can write down the three main goals
you have for the week you can also jot
down the goals you set in the set
section this page will help you see your
week at a glance and help you stay
focused top weekly goals section so pick
the three goals that you want to focus
on the most these top three goals can
change each week and all of your goals
are important but these are special the
top of the page so here’s my page here
we go
so I said my top three goals again we’re
looking at the week of January 5th to
January 11th I said my top three goals
here we go write three comments in
English either on Instagram Facebook
and/or YouTube
number two memorize five new English
slang remember you guys that follow me
on Instagram I teach you guys slang each
and every day so again I put it on the
screen really quickly if you want
follow me on instagram here is my
Instagram handle right here my channel
but again you can set your top three
goals for the week now my third goal
let’s see my third goal watch a TED talk
and take notes now your weekly goals
your top three weekly goals can change
each week remember these are things
you’re like hey this week I kind of want
to do this this is something special I
want to do this week okay now after you
do that let me show you what you need to
do next you need to look at your daily
English study on these pages you need to
write what you actually do each day you
can highlight the goals you achieve
summarize your day using the five W’s
remember the five W’s everybody remember
the let the lesson we did who what when
where and why and then you can even take
notes about the new vocabulary
expressions and idioms you learn so
section break down in this page you can
see top is four goals the middle section
is for daily summary and new information
and the bottom is for notes and tips so
here we go again this is what my planner
would look like okay Wednesday January
8th looking at the middle part about my
day the five W’s so for who I wrote oh
my coworker what we ate lunch together
when from 11:30 to 12:30 we’re at a
restaurant near my office called Little
Italy why we both wanted Italian food
for lunch why is this important you see
I didn’t write a full paragraph I just
wrote notes that filled in the five W’s
if you do this every day you will start
thinking in English but you see it’s not
stressful you’re not writing full
sentences you’re just writing details so
again this planner was created to help
you start to think in English like a
native English speaker and if you
continue to do this on a regular basis
you will start to think in English and
eventually sound like a native English
speaker okay alright so let’s move on to
the next section again how you can
achieve your goals and have a plan for
2020 so the next thing is the weekly
review again very important on this page
you
can write down the three main things you
learned during the week and the three
things you would like to improve the
following week the goal is for you to
analyze your habits and English study
patterns this will help you improve
faster now I want to emphasize this even
though you study alone even though you
feel like you need a partner which is
important you can still analyze yourself
you can see hey what did I do last week
that was good and what did I do that
maybe I shouldn’t do that again you can
analyze your English journey okay so
here we go some important tips at the
bottom think about what you enjoyed
learning the most think about what you
disliked the most and think about how
you can do better moving forward so
let’s say for me for example weekly
review what do you want to improve next
week well I wrote I want to stop using
subtitles in my language when I watch a
video number two I want to stop saying
sorry for my English pronunciation and
number three I want to review the words
I learned before I go to sleep at night
again I’m making notes like hey next
week I want to change some things now
when you write it down you will actually
make the change the following week
that’s why it’s so important for you to
follow this plan okay alright so after
you do that here’s the next step
review the final section review the
English resources you used in this
section you will list the various
English resources you use along your
journey throughout the year you will
write down the podcasts blogs YouTube
videos books movies shows websites and
other resources that have helped you so
let’s say for example here we go on
these pages like I said you need to
write the information down and you can
document everything that you use
podcasts blogs now important information
remember to write the title or the name
remember that you can review them and
share them and remember to also include
suggestions from others why is this
important for example right now you’re
watching my video I’m teacher Tiffany
you enjoy my classes I enjoy being your
teacher but there
also many other amazing English teachers
online
well document.write those teachers down
right there YouTube channels down then
write the books you read well what
happened is you will actually begin to
create kind of your own English library
so when somebody else comes and says hey
where did you learn that you open your
planner let me tell you and you can tell
them exactly where you learned a certain
piece of information okay so let’s look
at my planner let me show you what it
would look like so here we go
I said blogs and articles so I said
number one ten ways to say bye in
English what I learned see you later
now I talked this actually on my
Instagram channel see ya or see you
later
it just means goodbye but again
something new that you learned so I
wrote it down and I wrote the date
number two Valentine’s Day gift ideas
okay and then the most popular gift is
chocolate next how to get fit in three
months three great ab exercises now
you’ll notice that that last one has
nothing to do with English instead it’s
about exercise the point is you can read
any article excuse me as long as it’s in
English it can be about something you’re
interested in but write it down later on
you realize whoa I’ve really learned a
lot this year I really read a lot this
year and you can review and see exactly
and chart your progress throughout the
year okay so this is why it’s so
important to follow the planner okay

and all of our goals this year I’m
teacher Tiffany hey hey let’s jump right
in you know I didn’t forget it’s story
time
okay guys I’m really enjoying this story
time so all right for today’s story it’s
actually connected to the planner
because as I was creating this planner
for you guys I realized something I’ve
actually always been like this
and let me explain so when I was in
grade school I mean I can remember all
the way back to when I was about 11
years old I’ve always made planners
always I made planners to study for
tests all the time but the story I want
to tell you about is about when I was in
college so when I was in college I was I
was intelligent I was smart but I was
you know a regular student when it comes
to you hanging out and everything but
one thing about me I think that people
always remembered was I was smart but I
always tried to help everybody else in
my mind we need to all succeed together
it’s not about only one person’s about
all of us succeeding together so every
time we had a test I would literally
create a planner yeah literally so the
planner would include I mean 200
questions with the answers and
explanations for the exam so people
would literally call me and try to
contact me before the test so that they
could get the planner and I always gave
it four I always gave it to them because
I wanted other students to also do well
in the exam but one night so I’m an
early bird um you guys kind of know
those that have messaged me I get up
very early in the morning which means I
go to bed very early um my bedtime
normally is 9 p.m. I’m just an early
bird so anyways when I had an exam I
would use
go to bed around 8:30 because I would
get up the next morning around 3 or 4
a.m. to study in the morning cuz I think
really clearly in the morning so anyways
I went to sleep and I told my roommate
hey my roommate I’m gonna bed I’m going
to bed umm so yeah if anybody calls
please you know just let them know I’m
sleeping so I’m I’m knocked out I mean
knocked out means I mean gone I was
sleep and my roommate comes and says
TIFF now I wake up easily so I’m not a
grout a grumpy person when I wake up so
I said yeah what’s up and I was sleep
but I woke up she said somebody’s on the
phone he’s trying to get in contact with
you and I was like who there was a guy
in my class and he didn’t necessarily
study a lot but he knew that I had the
plan for the test and he had called it
was like 10:30 11 p.m. at night and he
wanted to get the planner now this is
the night before the test I’m super
sleepy I have to wake up the next day
but because he needed it I got up and I
found a way for him to get the plan
because I also wanted him to pass and he
was able to pass the test because he
used the planner that I made and again
like as I was making this planning for
you guys I thought about like man I
really enjoy helping people accomplish
and achieve their goals and I enjoy
seeing the results so I just felt like
telling you guys that story because I
never forgot it because he passed he was
very grateful and I continued to make
planners every single test and I handed
them out to all of my classmates so I
hope you enjoyed that story guys again
remember you can get your planner by
clicking the link in the description the
next seven days it’s 1999 but after that
the price will go up but I want you to
achieve your goals in 2020 I’ll talk to
you next week
