I can understand the video 95% and without subtitles. I am a native Spanish speaker in South America, Chile. My English level has improved a lot since I started learning on my own, because I grew up very poor and I don't have money to pay for a teacher or classes and I don't have friends who speak English.

Hey I' d like to practice with you.
Awesome tips! Thanks, Stephanie. For me, definitely the way to go is to reduce anxiety. I'm getting more and more aware that emotions can totally block our mind from a correct judgment of the situation we are currently into.
i understand native English teachers but don't understand native people what i should do

Hello... I think the problem is ,when the native speakers are speaking they reduce the words making a very short phrase.... We need to learn reduce words.. I think this is the better solution.

I totally agree with you on all those 6 points.
If the person who do you talk to wants to understand you, he will! And there are so many examples when even native speakers don't understand each other))
Thanks so much for sharing this ❤!

Coach Stefanie, I love your voice and the sounds of it and I bet I prefer to sounds like you..Bless you more!
Those are really good tips, I believe that pauses are very important to help us elaborate the sentences in our mind while we are talking. That's something that I'm even trying to do more often in my native language. Many people are afraid of the silence, but actually we shouldn't be, because when we pause and answer seconds after, we show confidence, which is also important. Thank you for the video.

Thanks 🙏 a million to you for encouraging me! So, what I see is like difficult thing to me how to get a native English speakers I mean the people from in anglophone countries like USA, Canada, Australia and U. K if you are a French speaker like me , the most of the time we are speaking French and mother tongue that's why is so difficult to be fluent and confident so quickly as possible. Could you help me like a system or strategy that I can use to get them? Imagine many of us, we are good at writing English and sometimes to read but we have a problem about speaking English lik on WhatsApp call or simple call on the phone, or to speak each other face to face. If it wld be possible help please. Thank you so much for your time to read my comment

By the way understand it's enough to me you know but I don't have enough words to express myself in that case what am I gonna do stefanie? That's sounds good
Cool
I was very excited and i realy wanna improve my English language, especially with you, but unfortunately I don't have that money to pay you 😔.
I understand much better than i can speak cause' I am a Brazilian citizen living in this country where everybody just speaks Portuguese Language wherever you go and to find someone fluent in English can be compared to searching for a tiny piece of transparent glass into the ocean.... that's terrible :(
Is there a pdf version of this video with english subtitles
One question. Is this course in one platform or is on the Facebook?
It's great, btw, I have watched your content in some videos, am I wrong if you sounds more like American than British?

Love ur videos. I'm at B2 level of English and really want to practice my english with someone with the same level or above. Is there anyone who can join me?
A question: when you speak on videos, do you speak very clearly, specifically to learners, or do you speak the same way you usually speak with your native friends? On a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 is learners and 10 is native, which number do you think has the most to do with your speech in the videos? Thanks a lot!
@TheEnglishCoach

I get this question a lot :) I tend to speak very clearly... that's just how I talk. BUT, I also improve that clarity for videos and presentations simply because I tend to support my voice more with my diaphragm and I'm trying to be as clear as possible. I do this in conversations though, too, like when I'm telling a story or explaining something and I want to be sure people understand me.

How do you master a language's rhythm once you've already conquered its sounds and fluency? Because you can master the sounds, vowels, and fluency, yet still speak with the rhythm of a different accent but with all the sounds of the American sound system. Let's consider my niece as an example: her passion for accents led her to effortlessly mimic the Australian accent, seamlessly aligning with its unique rhythmic cadence. The point I am trying to make is how do you get the music right after you've gotten the vowels and fluency right, because even if the vowels are wrong and you are able to get the language rhythm right, you are halfway there. You have probably heard instances where someone takes words from one song and sings them to the rhythm of another song. Ps I often hear people who are foreigners but speak with an American accent, sometimes with incorrect vowels, but the American rhythm-the music behind the words-is there even if the vowels are wrong.

I teach rhythm in depth in my Accent Freedom program. englishfulltime.com/waitlist-accent-freedom But basically, you have to realize that most languages are syllable-timed or stress-timed. English is a stress-timed language... so different words are longer or shorter, emphasized or reduced, when we speak. When you learn how to stress words correctly and reduce words correctly, you will be able to master English rhythm. This is why I teach "fast and connected speech" on my channel so much. Correct timing in language is probably the #1 thing that makes you sound natural. You can have correct timing with incorrect sounds, and you will still sound natural. But if you have correct sounds with incorrect timing, you won't sound as natural.

Thanks for one more excelent video. I have a question and, please, don"t get me wrong, because I don"t mean to be umpolite: I noticed you spoke the "t"l etter in "ïnterview". As part of the americans drop this "t" sound in some words like that, should I be concerned about my pronunciation in that cases too? I`m brazilian. Thanks in advance.

Great questions :D Dropping the T after an N is optional :D We tend to do this more if we are not really emphasizing the word. But since I WAS emphasizing the word, I used the T to add more clarity and emphasis.

No, they aren’t the same thing. Earplugs are what you use to block out noise (like snoring or heavy machinery). Earphones/headphones are used to listen to electronic devices.
