1. What is fluency? Speaking smoothly without hesitating or stopping Specifically, Fluency can be separated into two types: physical and mental. Physical fluency means basically how your mouth and tongue cooperate to produce words precisely, While mental fluency is how your brain puts suitable words into sentences. 2. Get out of your comfort zone Just do it!!! Talk with others regularly, likely 2-3 hours a week. 3. Get used to Pressure Accept that you might feel nervous while communicating in English, just keep on repeating point 2. 4. Speed Reading a) find a text easy for you to read b) read it out and time yourself 5. Sing songs Read lyrics and sing it out, you can choose harder songs as you move on 6. Learn language in chunks Stop translating word by word!! Remember the language in big pieces
thanks for your advices
Mental fluency really got me
Nice
Thank you very much ☺️
Thank you💥
Am a language trainer myself. Appreciate ur training style and the effort and enthusiasm. Yes, listening to native speakers is the best way to improve one's language skills.. keep going
You are really extremely eloquent and speaking speed is such timed that a beginner can easily catch in one's memory. Not only that your overall appearance is very impressive too.

Nice I'm starting today
That's simply extraordinary. You've laid emphasis on everything one requires to improve his English. Thanks a lot for your sincere Efforts 😀

Suzan Kotseva I love u suzan so much mwaaah welcome Tanzania country.

Hello Emma. My wishes is that you're well! Recently I've been listening your teaching, videos, really have contributed to improve my pronunciation, big time. The way you present the teaching are very clear and give us the gide line to communicate better. I can tell in my field of work, I've improved to manage my business in a better way. Thank you for the passion, the effort you have to help people all over the world.
I found your channel in order to recommend it to someone who is trying to learn English.... This is just lovely and that Australian accent, good on ya! Ace!
This my first searching exercise, and I love it... great day from south east asia...
Now i can talk about different topics without any suspend to think, they come up easier this time. Thank you.
Without any flicker of doubts from my side, you are absolutely one of the top 3 best if not best English teacher on KZhead. Not just that, but also beautiful, innovative and very charming personality. I sincerely wishing you the best in your future projects
This girl is superb! pretty lovable and intelligent, the best part is that she never overacts, love her without even meeting her in person💖, I have seen many girls who teach English here but she is the best.
Quarantine really got me coming here even though I’m a native English speaker edit: whoa um hi guys some of y’all are asking me to help you learn english but honestly i am not good at teaching lol i recommend reading things like the news for reading practice and for speaking watch shows that are in English for pronunciation !! i think the hardest thing about english is the grammar rules and sentence structure so try to really perfect that !! it’s not very good but i hope somethings are helpful.
😂😂😂😂
Mmmmm Good
Lol😂
Chrissy same
Me too loool
I love the word: it teaches us to respect for different cultures, traditions, and beliefs.😍😍😍
I use this as an “accent warm up” before I record my English oral presentation and it really helps me!
Ñ
Your voice and gestures are truly amazing. It is to be admired!
At my first trying was very difficult follow you without focusing on your beautiful eyes! Thanks so much! Your videos are very helpful for us!
Thank uuuu so much I've been studying English by myself for almost a year and your videos are an amazing resource, it's my first time doing this exercise and I love it ❤
Did You improve your English studying by yourself?
In my opinion, step 3 is so difficult. Although when i listen to you, i can understand what you say but i can't remember them so i can't shadow with you. But thank you so much for your video. It's help me a lot. I love your voice❤
The same happens to me and for that reason I had a bad score in TOEFL Essentials test
Same here 😢 any advice ?
I am Faisal from Kerala, a state in India. I subscribed to your channel a week ago. But I did not take it seriously. Through this video I am going to strictly follow your strategies. Thank you so much madam for this amazing video. This is very helpful as a Keralite as our language slangs and dialects are very influential. Thanks again for your help
Thanks! This is very helpful. Looking at speaking practice as a beginner and I found yours is very helpful. Excited to continue the video lesson
I am always struggling with speaking English clearly. Now, I think that the imitation technique you provided will perfectly work for me. Thank you so much!
Absolutely amazing, I really do love the way you teach people how to change their accent. I am from Brazil and I absolutely hate the way I sound when I speak English. I am not quite sure why I hate it so much but when people can identify me as Brazilian I feel awful. So thank you so much for doing videos like this to help people like me.
Sorry, but you don't need to change your accent, and probably when you live in another country, natives can recognize different accents... because it's your home language... Problably, this is unchangeable. For example, in Ireland you can find Indian, African, Mexican, Brazilian, people came from everywhere and nobody's can change their accents...
you dont need to shy or feel awful because your accent tho.
Thanks for the pretty useful lessons. I was looking for these kinds of videos but I couldn’t find but KZhead recommended me your lessons. I’ll train my pronunciations easier.
thank you it helps a lot to bring back my english accent.. you know what.. I am Indonesian.. And I was exchange student 7 years ago in the US, I was very active talking in english.. but since I came back to my home country.. I have difficulties to use and communicate in English again.. not everyone here can speak or use english (that's the problem) wkwk but I have starting to speak again using english by talking to my old friends in different countries.. I hope it will be my best practice to improve and sustain my ability to speak in english.. wish me luck.. thank you
those techniques are really important,,, Thank you again. Honduras.
Very sweet and humble english teacher i would love to watch all your videos. Keep making more videos . You are the best english teacher ever.
This is a cool training! I love to watch videos like this. Thank you very much! I understood almost everything ❤
I like your pronounciation, and it helps me more about English practice etc. Send all my love, from Indonesia! :)
Text to print. Who likes it? :-) I love to travel to different countries, I love meeting new people and tasting different foods (that's my favourite part!) To date, I think I have visited about twenty-two, different countries but there are so many more places on my list Almost every person that I know, who has a decent income, does some sort of travel every year, usually overseas, to a different country. In my opinion, travelling overseas and to different countries makes us more accepting of each other's differences and teaches us respect for different cultures, traditions and beliefs. It also helps me to tell some pretty interesting stories about my adventures. I love talking to people about places they've visited and things that they have seen in the world. I think it's because I can easily relate to them and it's easy for me to share my stories and experiences whit them Plus, I love getting recommendations about places to visit. It helps me to plan where my next holiday is going to be.
I feel very interested , i'm from indonesia..
Can you call me
KiKi Świat teşekkürler

Hello Mam👋 I come from Indonesia. Thank you for teaching this pronunciation technique clearly and easily understood. And this video very helpful for me to improve my ability to speak in English.
Thank you i love this way of learning english . That's great.
Thank you so much for the lesson and training. It really helped me and I can feel my cheeks worked out because of shadowing. Thank you so much. 😊
Listening, imitating and shadowing. These are the most great things to be fluent in English. Thanks a lot
Very good english teacher you are. I appreciated. I'm learning so many words and sentences from you. Thank you.
The las part is almost impossible!!! But it is an excellent alternative ti keep practicing. Thanks for your videos!!
Thank you for explaining everything so nicely. You are very composed.
Absolutely an amazing technique to learn english.
This is a good method. I encourage people to watch this and to practise the imitation technique. I often tell my students to record themselves repeating English phrases and listen for the differences. Once you hear the differences you can focus on speaking clearly and correctly. This is a good video to do this with :-)
🤗🤗🤗

Thank you but I'm not actually British, I'm Australian 😂
😂Sorry, but thanks anyway you deserve it
mmmEnglish Emma how come you didn’t correct him, he texted he’s getting clever, when you know as a native English speaker, it’ll sound better if he says “I’m getting better as the time goes by “ along with other things clearly, you’re a great teacher, I’m just curious.
its not british English.
Thank you for your videos Emma!! I'm watching from Argentina..I love grammar and vocabulary but I always have problems with pronunciation so your lessons will help a lot..
Glad to hear that Maria! Best of luck with your studies x

Congrats once more Emma! You are the Best!
Hello, Professor Emma from mmmEnglish! How's It going? 🤗 I thanks God for being this person wo teaches with Love and Dedication and puts himself in the others person's place and for that, manages to convey security and confidence to me. I was almost putting off re- studying English, because of my hearing impairment since childhood, but I never give up, although It takes time, even studying alone after fifty years without studying, because when I was in High school, I had a Very understanding teacher and patients in giving me private lessons outside of school hours. I can write short texts and understand 90% American English and British English. This "Shadowing" class is helping me a lot! Big hugh and great sucesso to you!😉
