00:00:00,337 --> 00:00:03,267
Learning English

2
00:00:03,314 --> 00:00:06,016
Lesson One

3
00:00:07,218 --> 00:00:09,844
With Misterduncan

4
00:00:14,953 --> 00:00:18,085
Hi everybody, this is Misterduncan in England.

5
00:00:18,085 --> 00:00:19,564
How are you today?

6
00:00:19,564 --> 00:00:22,058
Are you ok? I hope so.

7
00:00:22,058 --> 00:00:24,997
Are you happy? I hope so.

8
00:00:24,997 --> 00:00:27,303
Welcome to the very first episode

9
00:00:27,333 --> 00:00:30,821
of my series of English teaching videos.

10
00:00:30,882 --> 00:00:31,963
Before I begin

11
00:00:31,963 --> 00:00:33,763
we will take a look at some

12
00:00:33,763 --> 00:00:36,315
of the common questions that often arise

13
00:00:36,315 --> 00:00:39,551
when talking about learning the English language

14
00:00:39,565 --> 00:00:40,823
and more importantly

15
00:00:40,823 --> 00:00:43,683
learning it as a second language.

16
00:00:44,543 --> 00:00:47,173
So, the first question must be:

17
00:00:47,372 --> 00:00:51,062
"Why do we need to learn English?"

18
00:00:52,307 --> 00:00:54,150
Of course one of the reasons

19
00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:56,837
why we need to be able to speak English nowadays

20
00:00:56,837 --> 00:00:59,991
is because the world is becoming smaller.

21
00:00:59,991 --> 00:01:01,574
Thanks to the Internet

22
00:01:01,574 --> 00:01:03,727
and our developing global economy

23
00:01:03,727 --> 00:01:06,032
more and more people are using English

24
00:01:06,032 --> 00:01:09,263
as a common way to communicate with each other.

25
00:01:09,307 --> 00:01:11,663
So now it has become unavoidable

26
00:01:11,663 --> 00:01:14,207
that companies and large businesses

27
00:01:14,207 --> 00:01:16,328
will need to employ people

28
00:01:16,328 --> 00:01:20,179
who can speak more than their own native language.

29
00:01:20,179 --> 00:01:22,883
That is where English comes in...

30
00:01:22,883 --> 00:01:25,599
It is now officially considered

31
00:01:25,599 --> 00:01:28,602
as an international language.

32
00:01:29,741 --> 00:01:32,196
Of course learning anything is difficult

33
00:01:32,196 --> 00:01:35,427
and English is no exception.

34
00:01:35,427 --> 00:01:40,111
However, there are ways to make the situation easier.

35
00:01:40,126 --> 00:01:43,457
I have come up with my own list of general rules

36
00:01:43,457 --> 00:01:45,430
for learning English.

37
00:01:45,430 --> 00:01:46,763
Do you want to hear them?

38
00:01:46,763 --> 00:01:48,768
Do you want to know what they are?

39
00:01:48,768 --> 00:01:51,129
Ok. Let's go!

40
00:01:55,559 --> 00:01:58,505
Learning English takes time and patience.

41
00:01:58,505 --> 00:02:01,298
It cannot be rushed.

42
00:02:01,511 --> 00:02:04,213
Try to relax and take it easy.

43
00:02:05,261 --> 00:02:07,982
The most important thing you need at the beginning

44
00:02:07,982 --> 00:02:09,774
is a good vocabulary.

45
00:02:10,406 --> 00:02:14,192
Without words, you have nothing to work with.

46
00:02:15,439 --> 00:02:18,036
You must start with a strong foundation

47
00:02:18,036 --> 00:02:19,413
or base

48
00:02:19,413 --> 00:02:23,709
and slowly build on it, day by day.

49
00:02:25,632 --> 00:02:28,460
You must view English as a part of your body

50
00:02:28,460 --> 00:02:33,023
just as you would, an arm or a leg.

51
00:02:33,670 --> 00:02:37,022
It must become a part of your everyday life.

52
00:02:37,022 --> 00:02:40,672
Daily practice is very important.

53
00:02:41,643 --> 00:02:44,407
Do not worry about making mistakes.

54
00:02:44,407 --> 00:02:47,147
In fact the more mistakes you make

55
00:02:47,147 --> 00:02:49,598
the more you will learn from them.

56
00:02:50,016 --> 00:02:52,878
Just like learning to ride a bike.

57
00:02:52,970 --> 00:02:54,962
Sometimes you fall off.

58
00:02:55,208 --> 00:02:57,448
So what do you do?

59
00:02:57,448 --> 00:03:00,580
You get back on and try again.

60
00:03:01,828 --> 00:03:05,348
Do not look at English as just another subject.

61
00:03:05,844 --> 00:03:09,185
Your attitude to English and the way you view it

62
00:03:09,185 --> 00:03:12,046
will decide how well you progress.

63
00:03:12,046 --> 00:03:15,164
Just as we say in English:

64
00:03:15,164 --> 00:03:18,576
"No pain, no gain"

65
00:03:20,848 --> 00:03:24,132
The two most important words to remember

66
00:03:24,132 --> 00:03:26,313
when learning English are

67
00:03:26,313 --> 00:03:29,915
Practice and Confidence.

68
00:03:29,915 --> 00:03:32,447
Practice English everyday

69
00:03:32,447 --> 00:03:33,982
and be confident.

70
00:03:34,073 --> 00:03:36,775
You will find that the more you use English

71
00:03:36,775 --> 00:03:38,924
the better your English will become

72
00:03:38,954 --> 00:03:41,084
and the more confident you become

73
00:03:41,084 --> 00:03:43,478
then the more you will want to use it.

74
00:03:43,896 --> 00:03:47,311
Make it a rule to tell yourself

75
00:03:47,404 --> 00:03:48,962
I can do it!

76
00:03:48,962 --> 00:03:50,779
I can do it!!

77
00:03:50,779 --> 00:03:56,080
I can do it!!!

78
00:03:59,995 --> 00:04:04,310
Please remember, my lessons are aimed at everyone

79
00:04:04,696 --> 00:04:07,341
so hopefully you will find something useful

80
00:04:07,341 --> 00:04:08,431
in each one.

81
00:04:09,219 --> 00:04:13,149
Maybe you will find some of the words I use very easy.

82
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,734
But you will also see some words

83
00:04:15,764 --> 00:04:17,346
that may be new to you.

84
00:04:17,654 --> 00:04:21,747
Remember! My lessons are aimed at everyone.

85
00:04:22,008 --> 00:04:25,807
Even teachers are very welcome to join in.

86
00:04:25,977 --> 00:04:29,837
Learning English should be a fun experience

87
00:04:29,837 --> 00:04:32,369
and I hope with the help of my video lessons

88
00:04:32,582 --> 00:04:35,903
you will discover just how much fun it can be.

89
00:04:36,273 --> 00:04:39,493
I hope you've enjoyed my first lesson.
