When you're trying to be a fluent English speaker, the first thing you have to

master is organizing your thoughts, and you're going to learn all about it today.

Are you ready?

Well, then I'm teacher Tiffani let's jump right in.

The very first thing I want us to look at is this situation right here.

Someone has asked you a question.

Do you like to travel now, as you were looking at that video, if you're looking

at the video lesson, you probably started thinking about a vacation.

Maybe you had in the past, or maybe a vacation you want to go on in the future.

But how do you answer this question simply?

You use the five W's method.

Here we go.

The very first thing you need to organize is who, who are we talking about?

Me, what love to explore new cultures when during summer vacations,

where to exotic destinations, why?

Because it broadens my horizons and enriches my life.

And I'm going to pause for a second.

Right now we're doing the first step.

We're thinking in English.

The question is, do you like to travel?

Well, if we organize our ideas based on who, what, when, where, and why

the five W's we will actually be able to speak English fluently.

And you can do the same each and every time someone asks you a question.

So we have the information who, what, when, where, and why, but how can we

turn this into a fluent English response?

Here's what it will sound like.

I love to explore new cultures during summer vacations.

Usually I traveled to exotic destinations.

The experience of immersing myself in unfamiliar customs, traditions, and

languages broadens my horizons and enriches my life in countless ways.

Now you're probably thinking to yourself, well, yes, Tiffani,

that's an amazing response.

But if you look closely, you'll realize within this response, that's right.

I only used the information from the five W's who, what, when, where, and

why that we organized in the first step.

Thinking in English.

Once again, who, when we're talking about me, right?

I love.

What, and we're just using the pieces of information from the first step,

love to explore new cultures during summer vacations to exotic destinations,

because it broadens my horizons.

Now we see that the response is a fluent English response, but you'll

also notice within the response that there's some new words.

I want to explain the new words.

The very first one is.

Exotic good after me again, exotic.

Excellent.

Now this just means unusual or intriguing often associated with foreign or

unfamiliar places, cultures, or things.

So this is a brand new word for you.

Again, I use it like this.

Usually I traveled to exotic unfamiliar.

Destinations.

You got it.

Excellent.

Now in the second one, well, this third sentence I said, immersing.

So what does the word immerse mean?

Immerse oneself in something.

This is the expression using the word.

So to immerse oneself in something, it just means to fully.

Involve oneself in, or become deeply absorbed in a particular

activity, experience, or environment.

For example, as your English teacher, I encourage you, even if you don't live in

an English speaking country to immerse yourself in English, watch YouTube

videos, watch movies, listen to podcasts, immerse yourself, fully involve yourself.

Makes sense, right?

So again, in the sentence, the experience of immersing myself in unfamiliar customs,

traditions, and languages dot, dot, dot, this brings us to the next expression.

Broaden one's horizons.

Listen, I hope you're taking notes because these are expressions

and words that native English speakers use on a regular basis.

So yes, I'm helping you think and speak English, but I'm also helping you start

to sound like a native English speaker.

Here we go.

Broaden one's horizons.

It means to expands one's knowledge.

Understanding or experiences beyond what is familiar or conventional.

What is the norm?

Often by exploring new perspectives or cultures.

For example, prior to going to South Korea, I had only lived in America.

I was very familiar with American culture, but when I moved to South Korea,

I had to learn about a new culture.

I had to understand new customs.

My horizons were broadened.

I started to understand people even more.

Makes sense.

Right?

All right, now this is the next expression in rich one's life, in rich one's life.

This just means to enhance or improve the quality depth or

meaningfulness of one's life.

I always say that living in South Korea for such a long time, enriched my life.

I grew in so many ways, my perspectives, my actions, different habits.

It really enriched my life.

Makes sense.

Excellent.

All right.

So we see again from this first example, thinking in English and then speaking

English thinking by using the five W's who, what, when, where, and why.

Okay.

Tiffani.

Yes, we were able to answer the question.

Do you like to travel using the five W's, but is it really

possible to use the five W's?

In every situation.

Yes.

Look at this question right here.

Here's the question.

Do you and your friends like to travel different situation?

We're talking about travel, but now do you and your friends like to travel?

How can we use the five W's who, what, when, where, and why to think

in English and organize our thoughts?

Here we go.

Who my friends and I, what enjoy going on road trips when on long weekends.

Where to scenic landscapes and national parks.

Why?

Because it allows us to disconnect from our daily routines and

experience the beauty of nature.

You see, when you use the five W's who, what, when, where, and

why to organize your thoughts, all of a sudden, the stress leaves.

Why you're not thinking about, Oh, how do I speak fluently?

How do I sound like a native speaker?

No, you're focused on organizing your thoughts.

You're smart.

You're intelligent.

Yes.

I'm talking to you.

You're already intelligent.

I'm just giving you the tools you need to organize your thoughts

and present them in English.

So five W's for this question.

We have who, what, when, where, and why to answer the question.

Do you and your friends like to travel?

What will this look like?

Let's put it all together.

My friends and I enjoy going on road trips.

We often travel to scenic landscapes and national parks during long weekends.

You already recognize the five W's don't you?

These adventures allow us to disconnect from our daily routines

and experience the beauty of nature.

My friend, I want you once again, to think about the five

W's we organized in step one.

All of the information from step one is in our response.

And that's what makes it a fluent English response.

Five W's each of the W's are answered in this response.

All of the five W's are answered.

Each one is seen in this response.

But now let's take a step back and learn some of the words.

We have some new words in this response that I want to make sure you understand.

The first one is scenic.

Good again after me scenic.

Excellent.

Now this just means beautiful or picturesque, typically referring

to natural landscapes, views, or settings that are visually

appealing or aesthetically pleasing.

I want you to, once again, if you're watching the video.

To look at the video in the background, this video of this amazing national park.

It's very scenic.

This is how we use the word scenic, a picturesque, beautiful natural landscape.

Next.

I want you to understand this word disconnect, disconnect.

Now this means to break free, disengage from something often

referring to detaching oneself.

From technology, we have our cell phones.

We have our iPads.

We have our computers disconnecting, not using them for a period of time.

Daily routines can also be disconnected from right or distractions in order

to relax, to feel rejuvenated or focus on other activities in English.

We say disconnect, for example.

I've been so busy.

I just need to disconnect.

If someone says that it means they want to relax and take a break from life, from

technology, from work, whatever might be going on in English, we say disconnect.

Makes sense.

Right.

Excellent.

All right.

So we see that we are able to use the five W's no matter what the question is.

Now, I want to remind you again, don't forget to download the app

English with Tiffani so that you can practice what you're learning.

That's the most important thing practice after you learn.

All right.

So download the app totally for free.

The link is in the description.

Now I want us to look at this question, this question right here.

Does he like to travel notice different questions, right?

We're focusing now on someone else.

Hey, does he like to travel?

So now you're going to have to formulate your ideas based on someone

else's experience, but we're still going to use the five W's method.

Who, what, when, where, and why?

So.

Who he, what seeks adventure and thrills when during school breaks,

where, To adrenaline pumping destinations like bungee jumping

spots and extreme sports centers.

Why?

Because it gives him an adrenaline rush and makes him feel alive again.

We're just organizing our thoughts who, what, when, where, and why now.

We can speak English because our thoughts are already organized.

Let's turn this actually into a fluent English response.

Here's the response.

He seeks adventure and thrills during school breaks.

So he usually travels to adrenaline pumping destinations like bungee jumping

spots and extreme sports centers.

The rush of adrenaline he experiences from pushing his limits.

And engaging in exhilarating activities makes him feel truly alive.

This is an amazing response.

It sounds like a native English speaker.

Why?

Because we followed the first step.

Organizing our thoughts, who, what, when, where, and why.

Now you'll also notice that within this response, there were quite a

few new words and new expressions.

So let's start with the first one.

The first one I want to explain to you is thrill.

Good again, thrill.

Excellent.

Now this just refers to a strong feeling right here.

If you're looking at it of excitement, adrenaline, or exhilaration

often derived from intense.

Or risky activities or experiences, jumping out of a plane, riding a

rollercoaster thrill, the fact that your eyes get big, or you feel this

rush of adrenaline in your body thrill.

Next we have adrenaline pumping, adrenaline pumping.

Now this just means something that causes a surge of adrenaline that.

Feeling that comes up inside of you, typically associated with

thrilling or high intensity activities that generate excitement

and a heightened state of arousal.

Adrenaline pumping, man, jumping out of a plane is an adrenaline pumping experience.

The adrenaline just seems to pump, you know, when your heart beats fast.

Adrenaline.

Pumping next, we have push one's limits, push one's limits.

Now this refers to going beyond one's comfort zone or usual capabilities,

challenging oneself to reach new levels of physical, mental, or

emotional performance or endurance.

You, my friend right now are pushing your limits.

You might've felt before this video, man, it's so hard to think in English.
