  • This video is for anyone learning a new language, not only English learners.
    You can use books to improve your reading, speaking, vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation all at the same time.
    You can do it at home and without a partner. I show you how in this video.
    This video is a little bit long, but I highly recommend watching the whole thing.
    I show you what I used to do for thirty minutes every single morning before work when I was focusing on improving my Thai.
    If you're a native English speaker and you find my speaking too slow, please feel free to adjust the speed of the video.
    I'm Teacher Mike, and I'm an English teacher from the United States. I have also worked as a communication quality manager in a five-star hotel and as a communication coach at a company that trains Japanese business professionals in the communication skills that they need to succeed on international teams.
    I usually post 3-5 new videos each week, so if you're interested in improving your English, make sure to subscribe and turn on notifications so that you see all of my new videos.
    And don't forget to follow me on Facebook, Instagram, and Tiktok!

    It's nice to hear you speaking Thai.
    Using books to improve my English is an effective technique.😊

    Our goal is not to finish the book quickly.
    Our goal is to learn as much as possible. The harder the book is, the more you are going to learn.
    So, I notice I need a challenging book for me.
    Wow, I love your video. Thanks a lot, Mike.
    You are very smart. Thai looks so difficult to learn.

    I'm reading the bible and it's not easy, but I will continue. The grammar I find there is complicated sometimes. Thanks, Mike. 😊😊

    Really good method! Reading is a great way to learn any language. Something else I like to do is listening to the audiobook while reading the book. If you see words you're pronouncing wrong, write them down and make a list. Then go back and read the list aloud every once in a while.

    This language is really weird teacher Mike.

    Thanks for all your efforts anyway ☺️

      I think it's a lot easier than English though. The grammar and the alphabet are both much easier to learn.

    Sometimes we understand the meaning of every word in a sentence. Still we can't understand what the writer wants to say, especially in literary writings. What should we do in such situations?

    • @TeacherMikeEnglish
      @TeacherMikeEnglish  11 днів тому

      Stop trying to understand the meaning of each word, and instead, try to understand the meaning of the sentence.

    Hello Mike,you said "vocabulary" Can't we put "vocabulary " into plural? Thank you for help

    • @TeacherMikeEnglish
      @TeacherMikeEnglish  Рік тому

      Yes, but that would mean "groups of words".
      Vocabularies = Medical vocabulary, Sports vocabulary, etc
