مقطع فيديو من How to LEARN ENGLISH في http://www.engvid.com/ When you have the right textbook, you will find that learning English doesn't have to be hard or boring. If you are studying English on your own, I'll show you how to choose the right textbook -- what to look for, and what to avoid. These are the two English textbooks I mention at the end of the video: http://www.engvid.com/out/amz_basicgrammar http://www.engvid.com/out/amz_azar Take a quiz on this lesson here: http://www.engvid.com/how-to-choose-a-textbook/
I need a book on how to be a gentleman. I need to know my -- hi. James, from EngVid. This book is called "How to Be a Gentleman", by John Bridges. It's sort of like a textbook. And what is a textbook? A textbook is a book designed to teach you something with exercises that will bring you from one place to another. So when you're finished doing the textbook, you should learn a skill. Unlike a book that you read for enjoyment, which is fun -- you enjoy; you put away -- a textbook is usually used in schools to teach skills. And through exercises and tests, you master it. This is sort of like a textbook, but it's a little bit fun.
My job today is to do something we haven't done before. You come to EngVid to learn English, which is true, and this is great. But you could also buy books outside. I'm sure some of you have bought books outside. When I teach, some of my students, before they go back to their countries, they say, "Teacher, I need a book to help me with my grammar or my English." One of my colleagues at EngVid has done a lesson. You should check it out. It's about books you should read. But this one is specific. This is on textbooks, the books that teachers may use in schools or you can buy by yourself, which will help you increase on your IELTS, on your TOEFL, or on your grammar or vocabulary. And these are books designed for people who are learning English as a second language, okay? And that's what this lesson is today. "How to pick a good textbook." So see, gentlemen? How to pick a good textbook, a textbook that would help you.
I can give you ten books that I think are good textbooks. But I am not you, and I'm not your teacher -- well, I am. I know. I'm sorry. I like you, too. Okay, we love each other. But I mean, I'm not there to help you. If I were sitting with you, talking to you, I'd say, "You know what? This book isn't good for you. This book is good for you." And because I wanna help you -- see, I said "wanna". See that's a grammar thing. Because I want to help you, I'm going to give you something that you can use to find a textbook for yourself. There are probably many books in your country, and you don't know which is a good one. I don't want you to waste your money, and I want you to learn. Okay? So let's go to "How to Pick a Good Textbook".
I found there were approximately ten points that you should have when you're going to buy a textbook. They can be very expensive and very helpful, okay? If you pick the wrong one, though, it's not a good use of your money, and it will take time -- valuable time from your learning.
The first thing you should look at is when was the book made? If the book is old -- it is 20 years old; it's not a good book because they probably don't talk about computers or laptops or email and addressing any of that. And you're going to be looking at books where you're saying, "Well, golly gee, sir, I think the rain on the plain in Spain is mainly..." -- it's out-of-date. We call something "out-of-date". If the book is over ten years old -- probably not good to use, right? Probably want to say away. Get a more up-to-date book, one with more modern examples that will talk about technologies you're using today. Okay?
The next one is what do you need? I don't know how many students come to me and say they want to listen -- get better hearing skills. And then they tell me how they're watching the news. And they're level two or three. And I'm like, "Stop immediately!" You shouldn't be watching the news until you have 80 percent of the language. It's just too much for you. What do you need it for? "Well, Teacher, I want to watch my TV program." Well, watch your TV program. "What do you need" is what you work on. If you need IELTS or TOEFL, don't use a basic grammar book. You should be high enough that you can use the books that you're testing for. What do you need? Do you need it for work? Then you need technical books, books that work specifically with technical language or formal language. Are you going on vacation? Then, you need a book with pictures and drawings and fun stuff. Heck, heck, you can even watch TV programs for children. What do you need? So in a textbook, look at what do you need, and the textbook addresses -- when we say "address", it's working towards what you need, not what you think your friend has or someone would tell you.

7031Learn English: 3 easy ways to get better at speaking English
There are easy ways to learn English, and here are 3 methods NOT taught in language schools or textbooks. These methods are fun, fast, and easy to learn! You will learn how to make studying English easier, and learn how to spend less time studying. Take this lesson and learn the secrets to getting better in English right now.
"The Prosperity Plan." It's empty. Why? Well, hi. James, from EngVid. I have a book, and it says "Prosperity Plan". I know you're here to learn English. This is a book full of secrets on how to make millions of dollars. Empty. That's because when people tell you there's a secret, there's not really a secret; there's a method behind something, and you may not know it, so to you it's a secret, but you know, just like that book, there are no secrets. The only one is hard work. Let's look at the three methods I have for you today in order to learn English, okay? Call them the "Secrets you need to know" because most people don't know them because the funny thing is, although they're not secret -- I said it again -- they're not methods that are usually taught in ESL books.
The Kaizen Method, the Process Method, and the Writing Method are actually books I read on something completely different. But what I found was they were very, very handy for learning English. Personally, I'm trying to learn Spanish, and when I apply these different methods, I found my learning going faster and faster, and I actually enjoyed it. So I called them "secret" for you because I'm quite sure that your teachers haven't sat down and gone, "Today, we're going to learn the Kaizen Method of English. Then, we'll do the Process Method, and then we'll do the Writing Method." No. Because they're actually three different books, all right? So I'm just going to give you a part of each book, and if I come across to the end, I'll give you another lesson on it, all right? But these are three things I liked out of these books.
All right. Let's start from the first one, the Process Method. I know -- and it's in red, and I start here why? Most of the times people are learning a language, they want to -- and this is what the Process Method is about. People start with "product", "product". What is a "product"? A "product" is something you can touch or hold. This marker is a product. But this isn't how the marker started. I'm sorry. Okay, the marker started a little differently. I mean, that's an alcohol base that I'm sniffing. When I go [inhales], there's liquid in here. This is plastic -- came from oil. So why I'm telling you all these things -- you're going, "Why are you telling me?" Well, things start in a certain way, but they end up like this. In fact, you can think of the Process Method versus product as being a tree and being a seed. And a seed, you know, little thing, you put it in the ground, and it grows into a tree. Well, when you have a seed, the seed has no idea that it's going to be a tree and a big tree -- how long it will take. But humans are funny. They want to start a language, and they think right away, "I'm going to learn English." And then, they sit down; they open the book; they open the book; "I'm going to learn English. I'm learning English. I'm learning English." And then they get upset one hour later. "I don't know any English. I don't speak English." Well, it's like being a human. You start as a baby, you grow to an adult. When we talk about the Process Method, what you want to do is don't think about you want to speak English. Yes, I know. That's why you're watching this video and why you're studying. Think more about what you're doing while you're studying English. And this is called the "process". Go into the step. Concentrate on what you're doing. You'll find a couple of things happen: Sometimes you'll say English is hard or it's boring. If you do this method, you'll actually stop finding it hard or boring, and you'll enjoy it because you'll be working on something specific, mastering that, and then you're going to start noticing that the final product -- English -- is coming to you. And it will come faster than you think. Why? Well, if you're thinking, "I don't understand this English", you're focusing, really, on you don't understand English or you don't know English. You're not focusing on what you're doing. If you take a breath [inhales] and go [exhales], "Okay. I'm just watching this video of this crazy guy who speaks very quickly in English, and just now, he told me to take a breath. Oh, okay. I understand." And you're ahead. That's the Process Method. Take time to actually go back -- when you're thinking about it's hard; it's difficult or boring -- and say to yourself, "What am I doing now?" And then look at that. Each time you do that, you get further in the process and you will end up with a product before you know it. Okay? Sounds simple, but try it. You can even do this on a date. That's another story.
