Hey, how's it going?
I'm sure that if you're watching this video
that you're one of our super motivated English students, right?
And you started the year like this:
I'm sorry about that.
Well, very good!
You have the goal of improving your English this year.
And you have a lot of motivation.
Eventually my local cafe...
But as time passes, it seems that it gets harder and harder for us to find the time,
continue with the same motivation.
Here's a tea for you there.
Okay, thank you.
Sorry, sorry.
It's the same story every year.
That's why in this video we've collaborated with lingoda
to help you to integrate
English into your everyday life.
If you don't know lingoda
it's an online language academy
accessible from anywhere in the world
with native and qualified professors
of French, English, German and Spanish.
I've been taking some Spanish classes.
Isabel has been taking some English classes.
We've tried it for you guys
and the truth is we love this platform.
When you sign up for lingoda
every month you receive a packet of private classes
and in groups.
And you can choose the days and times that are best for you.
It's open 24/7 as we say in English.
The group classes have a very reduced number of student
therefore you're going to be able to participate more
than in some traditional academies.
If you want to try lingoda
with the code AMIGOS
they're going to give you a €50 discount.
You're welcome.
Okay, so let's get started with today's video.
So, your alarm goes off at let's say 7 o'clock in the morning and
what's the first thing you do when your alarm goes off?
Well you snooze for at least 10 minutes, don't you?
Well, yeah, 10 minutes is fine,
but don't snooze for any longer.
If you're a super motivated student
and you want to take advantage of your morning to the maximum,
what can you do Isabel?
Well, you can wake up to a happy song in English.
That's a great idea.
But don't just listen you need to
sing as well, right?
Sing along.
Yes.
And this will also help you to get up in a really good mood.
You should sing an upbeat song,
and you should dance as well,
and that way you can wake up.
Okay, so after you've sung your song
what do you do Isabel?
Well usually you have a shower
and maybe you have to iron a shirt for work,
you need to get dressed
do your hair,
maybe put some makeup on.
So, while you're getting ready in the morning
don't just get ready in silence.
This is time you could be spending listening to the radio in English or
podcasts in English.
There are thousands of podcasts about any topic you can imagine.
Welcome everyone to the School of Greatness podcast.
Now you're ready to leave the house.
And so-- Well, I'm not ready to leave the house
without a coffee and some breakfast.
Oh, yeah.
So, while you're waiting for your toast
don't just stand there.
What could you do?
Have a look at the BBC news app
and check the news
while you're, yeah, waiting for the toast
or maybe while you're waiting for the kettle to boil.
It's something that you can integrate into your routine really easily
because most people read the news in the morning
in Spanish.
So just change it to English
and there you go, super easy.
Or if you don't have time or you are a really quick eater
then have a look at some quotes, maybe,
some inspirational quotes in English.
I quite like reading the Oscar Wilde ones in the morning
because they make me laugh.
Some cause happiness wherever they go;
others whenever they go.
So, now you finally made it out of your house.
And maybe you miss the train
you have to wait for ten minutes
or maybe you're driving and you're stuck in traffic.
If you're commuting on the train
that's the perfect opportunity to do some reading in English.
If you're driving or cycling don't read a book, that could be dangerous.
But you could listen to an audio book in English.
So, when you get off the train
or you're there looking for your ticket,
you know you you don't waste a minute.
Okay, so it's nine o'clock and you've arrived at work.
Can you do anything while you're at university or at work?
Well, there's not much you can do at work or at uni
but maybe you have some colleagues who are not Spanish speakers
so you can practice with them.
Oh good morning Isabel.
How are you?
Good morning!
How are you Jonathon?
Fine. How was the weekend.
Great, yeah. Did you get my email?
We're gonna need to send another invoice to the company
because they didn't get it.
I'm sure I sent it yesterday.
But, yeah, no problem.
I'll send it again.
You could carry on reading your book in English
if your boss isn't around.
Instead of working?
Isabel?
Okay, so then it's lunchtime,
and if you're lucky your company gives you free English classes.
But if your boss is quite tight-fisted
then maybe you don't get any English classes.
So why not have a class on lingoda?
So this is the perfect time when you are still fresh
during the day
to practice your speaking skills.
My name's Hunter, nice to meet you.
Originally I'm from Southern California.
I love travelling, yes, yes.
And obviously you don't need to do this every day
if you just do this a couple of times a week
this is going to mean an incredible boost
for your English fluency by the end of the year.a
Are you coming for lunch?
Uh....
No, not today.
I've got my class in ten minutes.
I'm just gonna grab a sandwich.
Maybe tomorrow.
So now, you might have to work for a few more hours,
and then you finish work.
Yes! It's time to go home!
It's time to get out the office.
Imagine you've finished work, and you have a doctor's appointment and
you have to wait in a waiting room.
What could you do Isabel?
This is pretty boring,
but don't worry because it's a great opportunity to keep learning English.
For example, you can use an app to memorize phrasal verbs.
Hi, Vanessa. Yeah, you can send her in.
Isabel Carrasco?
Yes, it's me!
Okay, let's imagine another day
you decide to go to the gym after work.
What could you do at the gym Isabel?
Well at the gym,
if you go on the static bicycle, for example,
you can play some short films on your phone.
I don't recommend it if you're running,
if you are on the, how do you call it?
On the treadmill.
The treadmill.
Every time I hear a new word,
every time I come across a new word,
I always add it to an app.
So, I have the new word with the translation or maybe with a phrase.
You can also have a notebook with you during the day,
so you write down the word.
And then at night while I'm cooking dinner
I go through a test.
So, I test myself on those words
to see if I remember all of them.
So I do this every day and it only takes 10 minutes
And it's an amazing way to increase your vocabulary.
And it's also quite fun because it's a challenge.
So, I take it quite seriously.
Well, that's all for today,
we hope you've enjoyed this video
and that you're turning it over in your head
thinking how you're going to integrate English in your life starting from tomorrow.
And that you stop seeing English as something boring,
like something that can become a nightmare
and that you start to enjoy it and make it part of your routine.
And if you have any advice of your own,
please let us know in the comments
and that way everyone can benefit.
Of course!
And if you're interested in trying lingoda
and start classes this week
remember with the code AMIGOS you'll have a €50 discount.
Okay, we'll put the link below in our description.
So tomorrow's an exciting day isn't it?
Yes, tomorrow morning you're gonna wake up
and you're going to have a whole new routine.
Yes, try not to do everything on the first day
because you might go a little bit crazy.
But little by little.
Yeah, by the end of the year you're gonna master your English.
Hope it's given you some ideas and we'll see you soon.
Bye! See you! Chao!
Isabel where are you?
We're waiting at your house (?)
Are you coming
Come!
Where are you?
Why don't you answer?
