So I am going to share the Facebook feed boom and get started on today's lesson.

Yeah.

There we are.

Hi, Facebook.

Sorry it couldn't see you.

We had a little bit of a slow connection.

They're great.

So let's get started.

Everybody's here now.

I see lots of people in the chatty.

Very good.

I'm glad.

So I didn't say hi to everybody on YouTube.

Most off mijo.

Number one.

Russert.

Hello, Celal.

And on Facebook, everyone's there.

Max Mohammed and the Lied Mallika.

Hello, everybody.

Great.

Okay, everyone is here so we can get started.

Fantastic.

Let's begin today's topic.

How to learn English.

And if you miss the beginning, Facebook might have been a little slow in the beginning if you missed it.

Today's topic is how to learn English during your commute.

If you have not already, please do make sure to like and share today's lesson.

Oh, good.

Okay, let's get started.

So first I want to talk about some listening and some speaking ideas for maybe those of you who drive a car or you have some kind of private space where you can practice on your way to and from work.

So first idea first study idea is to listen to and repeat after audio lessons, audio lessons.

So for those of you who have an account on our website in English Class one No.

One uh, you can download and listen to our audio lessons there about 10 or 15 minutes long.

Some are a little bit shorter, some of it longer s.

So if you have this kind of private space where you can actually repeat like you're in the privacy of private space in your own car, or maybe like in your house in the morning, uh, you can actually repeat after the lessons.

If you don't have a private space, maybe you can just listen to the audio lessons.

So some thoughts about this is first, choose a lesson that's focused on a key expression or a specific target.

So when you're choosing, like, which audio lesson to study during your commute, maybe it's better to choose a lesson that's focused on something like this likes some ideas might be how to introduce yourself.

So how does they like my name is and so on or howto order at a restaurant?

Or how to talk about your hobbies, thes air?

Just a few ideas.

The reason I would suggest these kinds of lessons are because, if especially if you're driving, it's really important to focus on the road, right?

So you want to make sure you can easily listen and repeat the information.

Studying grammar Trying to think about grammar might be a little bit difficult to do.

So try to choose a specific target for the lesson like you're tryingto you have a specific expression you're practicing or you have, like a specific phrase or question that you're practicing.

So choose a lesson that's focused on a key expression.

Another idea is if your commute is 20 plus minutes or 20 plus meaning 20 or more minutes.

Uh, then you can think about this idea.

Do one new lesson.

So you have a new lesson on your way.

Like like your first lesson is a new lesson.

So a lesson you have not studied before and then you do a review.

So you review like the previous day's lesson or you review an old lesson, something like that.

So if you if you have this time, you can give yourself the opportunity to learn something new, like a new expression and new a new phrase, a new question and you have the opportunity to review something from a previous study session, so this can be good if you have a longer commute or if you just have a little bit more time on your way to work or school, Uh, or, of course, on the way home as well.

Okay.

Ah, And then little last point here is Just remember to review on your way home.

So whatever lesson you listened to in the morning, consider listening to that lesson again on your way home.

So, like, eight hours nine hours later, 10 hours later, depending on your schedule.

So this is something you can do?

As I said, of course you can listen to it.

Just listen to the lesson.

Uh, if you're on, like, a train or a bus and there are other people around, But if you're in a car, you can actually speak like repeat after the Native Speaker.

Repeat after the person who's talking in the lesson.

So some ideas, uh, you can check out We have lessons.

We have audio lessons on our website.

Of course.

So please have a look at those, uh, there.

If you don't know at English Class 101 dot com.

We do have audio lessons, lots and lots of audio lessons there, so please check those out.

Some other ideas, especially for, like intermediate or advanced learners, some listening ideas, our English news, English news, especially English news for learners.

So if you Google just English news for learners or English for learners I'm sorry.

English news sites for learners you can find some resource is online where people will share the news.

But they use a specific English, a specific type of English, uh, four learners for people who are studying.

So they'll introduce key vocabulary points, idioms and other expression.

Finally, another cool ideas Podcasts, podcast if you don't know what a podcast is Ah, podcast is kind of like a radio show, but a podcast is made like by individual people.

So you can choose a topic that's interesting to you and find a show about that so you could do this, like with your phone, like just with your smartphone.

Uh, if you have a smartphone or even if you don't have a smartphone, you can search for podcasts on like apple podcasts or a Spotify or other podcast libraries directories, and you can find a topic that suits your interest S O.

If you have, maybe if you have a podcast that you like you can send it in the chat so other people can find it.

So if you have a recommendation for something you like to listen to, you can check that up.

And oftentimes, podcasts have notes.

There are, like notes about each episode of the podcast, so you can check maybe some of the key information in written form there.

So that's another resource that you can consider.

Okay, Uh, let's see.

Let's continue on Facebook.

You're saying there's something silly with the live stream I get.

I'm getting a couple comments on Facebook.

I see.

I see some comments on Facebook we're working on.

It s so let's go.

Let's see, we're about 10 minutes in.

So let's take one quick break and then we'll continue on with Part two for today's lesson.

All right, let's review this point.

Let's, uh, here this week we're a little bit different if you don't know today.

Well, it's actually this week.

I think Facebook looks okay, so I'll continue on then with part two for today's lesson, eh?

So if you're just joining today's topic is how to learn during your commute, how to learn English or other languages on your commute.

So I've talked about a learning with audio, listening to an audio lesson, or like two news into podcasts and if you can, repeating after the native speakers.

So let's go to Part two, then heart to, uh, heart Thio.

Excuse me is to use an app or a sight to study vocabulary words.

So AP this word AP AP AP AP means application a smartphone application so you can use an app or a website, some tool that you prefer to use to study vocabulary words.

This is one that I did for a couple years in the morning and at night it's true.

I had an app.

I studied Japanese on my way to work and on my way home from work 15 minutes in the morning and 15 minutes in the evening because I knew vocabulary was my weak point and this was so helpful for me.

I learned new words every day and I could use them at work every day to s O.

This was personally really, really helpful for me every day.

Some ideas I've talked about this app monkey a n k i donkey is a free ah flashcard app a fleet free flash card and like a vocabulary basically a study tool so you can choose.

I'll talk about in a moment you can choose like a group of words, Uh, and you can study them inside monkey, this free tool.

So when you use a junkie, uh, you can choose, like when you see a word appear in the app, you can say, yes, I know this word or I don't really know this word or I totally don't know this word.

And according to your answer, the software will remember.

You're like your level of ability to identify that word, so it will show you the word again at a later time, according to your answer.
