Hi there, Vladimir here, with another video on how to learn English
How to become fluent in a foreign language, in English in our case
How to become a fluent speaker of English?
Fluent is such a hot word nowadays, everybody on the Internet is promising to make you fluent
here is my 2 cents/opinion
First we need to define the word fluent.
I use the definition given by Cambridge Dictionary
when a person is fluent, they can speak a language easily, well, quickly and without many pauses
The first thing you need to do is ask yourself Are you a fluent speaker of your native language?
do you speak your mother tongue easily, well, quickly and without many pauses?
it is not possible to be fluent in a foreign language/English, and not be fluent in
your native language first.
Don't blame the foreign language alone for your lack of fluency
your second language fluency is likely to mirror your first language fluency
this was the first condition for fluency
to be fluent in English you have to be fluent in your native language first
Second condition for fluency is to read a lot, yes you heard me right, read a lot
lots of reading and listening practice, it's what we call input, but mainly reading.
Many people blame their poor language fluency on their lack of speaking practice.
let me let you in on a secret: speaking is overrated
the reason why you don't speak English fluently is because you don't read enough
read and listen
Just consider how long it takes a child to start speaking somewhat fluently
at least 6-7 years of intensive listening
reading can shorten that time, it's the 1 huge advantage adults have over children
we can start reading English texts from day 1
The third condition for speaking fluency is to use Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries,
read a lot and use Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries every time you come across a new word
As I said, everybody is making videos about how to become fluent
the most popular fluency video by far is titled Get fluent with 1 trick - become a confident
English speaker with this simple trick by one Drew Badger and the simple trick is
to learn English like native speakers
learn English like a native speaker, what the hell does this mean?
how can a 30-year old learn English like a native speaker, wait to be reborn in an
English speaking country with English speaking parents, go to English only school
the most popular English learning video on YouTube
help me understand, I am simultaneously discouraged and encouraged by this video
ask yourself this simple question:
what does a native English speaker like Drew know about how to become fluent in English ?
It's like Shaquille O'Neal teaching you how to dunk
I would much rather Allen Iverson taught me how to dunk
Allen:183cm, 75 kg Shaq: 216cm, 155 kg
I bet Drew's Japanese isn't as fluent, he should make a video to demonstrate how his
1 simple trick helped him learn a foreign language Japanese in his case
you won't see that video
learn English like native speakers, native speakers never use Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries
so many fluency videos on the Internet and nobody talks about Monolingual Dictionaries
why? because native speakers don't have to use Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries
the last condition for speaking fluency is of course speaking
but make no mistake
in order to make a single sentence in English you have to have read at least 10 pages in English
That's my 2 cents/opinion, for what is worth, after all all I've done is become fluent in English,
here I am speaking English fluently and confidently
as I said, I am both discouraged and encouraged by videos like the 1 simple trick video
discouraged because I truly, honestly don't understand why the 11 million views
and encouraged because there is room for some real, helpful stuff on the internet
like my book Virtually Native
Everything you need to know about how to become a fluent speaker of English is in that book
Virtually Native is available at Amazon and virtuallynative.com

Just So You Know YEG - Urban Wildlife - Duration: 1:38.
One of the cool things about coyotes is they eat about 1800 mice a year.
on top of that, coyotes will eat various different types
of dead animals that they'll come across.
They provide a cleaning service as they
remove these dead animals from the city.
Coyotes are the animals that we get the most calls about
within the City of Edmonton.
They do come into residential areas so don't be concerned,
we need you to see them.
It was really interesting, we were doing canvassing
door-to-door, just talking about coyotes and educating,
and letting them know what to do if you see a coyote.
So a little kid had answered the door, and he was wearing
this little bear costume.
I had asked him "What do you do if you see a coyote?"
and he expanded in his "Well you act big!"
and then he started screaming
and he's like "and then you don't run away!"
"You just stare at the coyote, and show them who's boss!"
He definitely would have scared off a coyote.
As a park ranger within the City of Edmonton,
we field a lot of calls regarding Canada geese.
Canada geese can nest in all sorts of different areas.
On top of buildings, in peoples back yards, in flower pots.
They're protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act
regulations, and also under The Wildlife Act.
So make sure that you're not touching the nest,
you're not moving the eggs, let them have their own space.
When you're encountering wildlife,
a lot of times it can be tempting to provide some food sources for them,
but a lot of times that can actually be detrimental to wildlife
and affect how they are developing, or how they're growing.
We definitely need to keep wildlife wild,
and just enjoy from a distance.
Edmontonians can do their part to help keep wildlife wild.

FMV Falling In Challenge ~ Xiumin x Kim So Eun (엑소시우민 x 김소은) [Another Miss Oh OST – What Is Love] - Duration: 3:37.
When the relaxing sunlight comes in
I blankly look out the window
Locked up in past memories, thinking about you
Where are you, what are you doing?
I'm smiling by myself at the good memories
But with heavy memories, I'm afraid I'll get hurt
So I try to act calm but my heart can't help but get caught
My heart, my heart, what's wrong with me?
What is love, what is love?
To make my heart this way?
Every day, I shed tears, my nose runs - my heart aches
What is love, what is love?
To make my heart race
On your sweet lips - I want to lay my heart on it
Dream a dream of you (I'm dreaming of you)
A dream I'm kissing you (Dreaming of kissing you)
Pink flowers are blowing around
Whistling at the warm spring wind
Should I call you or not?
When did I fall in love with you?
I confessed to you in my dream last night
All day, I kept staring at my phone
I try to act indifferent but my heart can't help but get caught
My heart, my heart, what's wrong with me?
What is love, what is love?
To make my heart this way?
Every day, I shed tears, my nose runs - my heart aches
What is love, what is love?
To make my heart race
On your sweet lips - I want to lay my heart on it
Dream a dream of you (I'm dreaming of you)
A dream I'm kissing you (Dreaming of kissing you
I'm so shy, I couldn't say anything
I couldn't hold onto you when you got farther away
I'm such a fool
I think I really am a fool
What is love, what is love?
Why am I being like this?
My heart is aching
What is love, what is love?
My heart is racing again
Telling me that I love you
What is love, what is love?
To make my heart this way?
Every day, I shed tears, my nose runs - my heart aches
What is love, what is love?
To make my heart race
On your sweet lips - I want to lay my heart on it
Dream a dream of you (I'm dreaming of you)
A dream I'm kissing you (Dreaming of kissing you)

FULLTANK by Bo Sanchez 158: Do you feel you're so ordinary and below average?- 31 Mar 2017 - Duration: 8:56.
I have a question for you do sometimes
feel like you're so ordinary like so
ordinary that's so average maybe
sometimes even below average if you feel
that way and if you think that way about
yourself you need to listen to my
message and you need to listen to my
story because that's me you know all my
life I looked at myself and especially
the first 20 years of my life I felt I
was I was this guy who was so uncuff
today one when I was a kid low grades I
mean if you were a kid if you're a
student in school that's the main thing
that people judge you by right like
you're you're whatever your great is
that's your label that's the thing that
that's around your neck hanging there
and saying announcing to the world this
is me grade two started failing math and
Billy Beane oh my two favorite subjects
in the world seventy-two was my grade in
math and my mom panicked and got a math
tutor and from 70 to praise God it went
ah hallelujah because of that math tutor
it became 75 now you know why it became
75 because that math tutor that private
bath tutor that my mom got for me was
also my math teacher wise mother you
know it's just really nuts number two I
was terrible at sports I mean I had
classmates who had put terrible grades
but at least they were good at
basketball and good in football I was
bad at basketball and bad it's all kinds
of sports I mean hello what's wrong with
me number 3 i'm very little money really
very little but my mom wouldn't give me
such a small allowance and my classmates
had huge amounts and i say why why is so
life so unfair number four I was ugly I
saw myself as ugly and it yes now I know
right now you look at me you say how
could that be possible brother Bo
so so people called my classmates called
me tip you know right there why Deepak
long I look like an insect and people be
my classmates would say ref ref not for
referee for refugee because that's how
it looked like anyway I I I saw myself
as somebody was totally uneven and I
complained to God I said Lord why don't
I have gifts you know that that's who I
was growing up and when I look at myself
now and how God is using me I say wow
wow there were a lot of things within me
that I didn't see and that's the thing
when you look at yourself you look at
the mirror or you look at yourself and
you see you see all the weaknesses and
the falls and you see your your
disadvantages you see your adequacy
that's all you see you know what God
sees he sees you of your gifts and your
awesomeness and he sees what's fantastic
at you remember he made you and he never
makes garbage he never does you know
I'll tell you a story one day there was
this guy who died and he went to heaven
and while in heaven he started talking
to the st. Peter and its heart started
telling his life story to st. Peter and
he was at that point when he said you
know I was a manager in a company st.
Peter and and our company folded up it
crashed to the ground you know what st.
Peter he said this I wonder if we had a
better CEO if we had a better president
maybe our company would not have folded
up but would have grown even more what
do you think I'm st. Peter said yes and
he smiled I bet the guy said really if
we had a better CEO who would have been
that better CEO and and st. Peter
pointed to one old man over there and
the guy looked at the old man is it hey
I know that guy he was our messenger he
was our messenger what he he would have
been the better president
and st. Peter smiled at this yes he
would have been one of the best the most
brilliant CEOs the world has ever known
if he chose that path there's a path
right in front of you a path of
greatness a path of great contribution
to the world a path of heroism a path of
a place where you can donate yourself
and so many people will be blessed I
don't care what that is that could be
also be being a messenger but being a
messenger of love and grace or it could
be of CEO it could be a general it could
be could be a leader it could be a
preacher it could be an entrepreneur it
could be a mother taking care and
raising above I don't know that the
roles are our could be mixed up it is it
doesn't matter what role but it's a path
of greatness that's in front of you can
you choose that path don't ever say and
to ordinary don't ever say I'm
untalented that's what I was my problem
hi my name is bo Sanchez and I'm here to
inspire you welcome to full tank I do
this from monday to friday and i pray as
i read the gospel I prayed it'll inspire
you our gospel is John chapter 7 and
Jesus said all the people said but we
know where he is from when the Messiah
comes no one will know where he is from
oh we know where he is from ordinary
right that's what they're saying yeah
average guy Jesus cried out at the
temple area you know me and you also
know where I am where I come from yet I
did not come on my own but the one who
sent me you know so so it's like that
whole idea again of yeah we know this
guy he's ordinary and you know when you
when you look at somebody and you say
he's ordinary you don't expect too much
from him right and boy did they have it
all wrong because Jesus in his
ordinariness was the king of all kings
and Lord of all Lords you are ordinary
anyway you know don't don't don't look
at yourself and live it all that God
wants to do in your life he wants to do
great things through you in the same way
that Jesus was so ordinary you may be so
ordinary and yet greatness is inside you
can I pray for you spiritually hold my
hand Lord Jesus thank you for making us
beautiful and fantastic and awesome
thank you Lord for creating us wonderful
and lord I give my life to you use me in
whatever way you see fit let your light
shine through me in Jesus name thank you
so much for your great love and mercy we
love you jesus we will serve you forever
and ever amen and amen lord I pray for
every person praying with me let your
love flow that your miracles flow let

So Much News, So Little Time - Nepotism, Impeachment & the Freedom Caucus: The Daily Show - Duration: 6:28.
There's so much news,
we've got to to handle it in another installment
of Ain't Nobody Got Time For That.
-♪ ♪ -(cheering, applause)
All right, let's get straight into it.
Remember how Donald Trump and Ivanka
promised they wouldn't turn the White House
into a mom and pop store? Yeah?
No nepotism, remember that?
Well, clearly, they don't.
Breaking news, first daughter Ivanka Trump
taking on a new official role in the White House.
REPORTER: His daughter Ivanka getting a new title:
assistant to the president. An official, though unpaid,
government employee. The move coming in spite
of Ivanka's assertion last year
that she wouldn't be joining her father's team.
People think that you're gonna
be part of the administration, Ivanka.
I'm... No, I'm going to be a daughter.
And a liar.
Well, I mean, look, we all knew... we all knew
that Donald couldn't stand to be apart from Ivanka, you know?
And in his four-year term he was eventually
gonna find some way to bring her in,
but... but two months?
I'm shocked at the... Like, two months in?
This guy has the patience of a toddler.
Like, a smart man would go for the long con. You know?
Trump is the guy standing outside the jewelry store going,
"And now we wait till the guards go home,
"and then what we...
"Screw it, let's go in now!
Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah!"
And, by the way, this story comes on top of the news
that Eric Trump, the least (bleep)-able of the Trumps,
admitted... admitted in Forbes that,
contrary to what he said,
his dad would still be running the businesses.
That's what he told us. Yeah.
He was like, "Remember how, back in late February,
"I said I wouldn't involve my dad in our businesses?
Well, now I'm gonna report to him sometimes all the time."
Now, on any other day, this flaring new evidence
of the president blatantly putting family over ethics
would dominate our time.
Bu then you turn the page and you're like,
"Oh, (bleep), world news."
Breaking news we're following out of South Korea.
The ousted president Park Geun-hye has been arrested.
It is the latest in a corruption scandal
which saw Park removed from office earlier this month.
Park is accused of bribery and abuse of power,
letting her close friend extort millions of dollars
from companies, including Samsung.
Wow.
A president impeached,
removed from office,
and thrown in jail.
Imagine that.
No, no, seriously.
Let's all close our eyes and imagine that.
(cheering, applause)
Mmm.
The story of South Korea's president being arrested
isn't just big news there, it also affects America.
You see, the U.S. has stationed thousands of troops
in South Korea just in case North Korea baby man
has too much boom boom juice.
But now, with South Korea's president in jail,
no one knows if her replacement is gonna be friendly to the U.S.
But, let's be honest, who has time for the world
when America's own baby man is declaring war back at home?
Now, today, President Trump turned to Twitter
to threaten some members of his own party.
REPORTER: Here it is: (reading)
Members of the caucus are not simply taking it on the chin.
Far from it. The Michigan Republican Justin Amash
tweeting today: (reading)
-AUDIENCE: Ooh! -Now... Now...
First of all, that was a good burn. Secondly...
this is when you realize
how extreme American politics has become.
Freedom Caucus guy is accusing Donald Trump--
Donald Trump-- of being an establishment politician.
Yeah. That's like calling Godzilla a city planner.
That is so extreme.
And, also... and, also... Donald Trump--
it's not enough that he's fighting with the Democrats,
the FBI, the federal court and Mexico,
now he's also fighting the Republicans.
He's like a political Jackie Chan.
That's-that's what he's like.
He's just slapping everybody.
(laughter)
(cheering and applause)
I'm-I'm not gonna lie.
Like, I could spend my whole life enjoying Donald Trump
in a Twitter beef with right-wing Republicans.
But-but not today.
Because I've got Carolina on my mind.
Lawmakers in North Carolina have reached an agreement
to repeal the state's so-called bathroom bill,
which required transgendered people to use bathrooms
that correspond with the gender on their birth certificate.
The move comes after college basketball threatened
to move more games out of the state in protest.
Wow. I knew college basketball was big in America
but big enough to undo transphobia?
That's insane.
"A man turning into a woman?
"That is sick!
"But not as sick as that dunk.
Am I right? Yeah!"
Honestly, I-I can't believe this is still an issue.
North Carolina has become such a disgrace
South Carolina has changed its name to North Georgia.
And-and while this sounds,
while this sounds like great news for equal rights,
it's not necessarily the win that it might seem.
LGBT activists, some critics, they're not happy.
They don't consider this a victory.
They argue that the replacement bill
still leaves room for discrimination.
That House Bill 142,
it gives the state the final say
regarding multi-stall bathrooms.
It also prohibits cities from issuing
their own nondiscrimination ordinances until 2020.
Now, I'm sorry, but this (bleep) is just pure evil.
Because not only can North Carolina lawmakers
still discriminate, they've made it illegal
to block discrimination.
That's just evil.
So now the infamous bathroom bill is overturned,
but the discrimination remains,
which means, luckily for Tar Heels,
they can keep their slogan--
welcome to North Carolina,
the most confusing state to poop in.

What makes Unbox Therapy so successful? - Duration: 7:49.
What makes an "Unbox Therapy?"
How did Lew become so successful?
Why does his channel have 7 million subscribers?
These are questions that people ask of all YouTube channels with a large subscriber base,
but let's focus on this guy…
I'm EposVox, a YouTube certified channel development and strategist coach and let's
break down the Unbox Therapy channel and see how Lew has become so successful on YouTube.
The answers are actually fairly easy to understand, once you see the elements that combine to
make a successful YouTube channel with millions of viewers.
This is more of a channel breakdown than a channel review.
I'm not here to give tips to Lew, but to give you tips and perspective based on Lew's
earned success.
It can be difficult to look at a popular YouTube channel today and think that you could make
videos anywhere near on their level, and UnboxTherapy is no exception.
He's got an engaging charisma that can't be ignored, a super professional video studios,
multiple camera angles all in stunning 4K, and an invisible friend named Jack.
But he didn't start that way.
Let's take a look at the origins of Unbox Therapy, and then we will fast forward and
see the elements that Lew has built up over the past few years.
This is one of the earliest videos posted to Unbox Therapy still available today.
You'll notice a similar camera angle - the overtop webcam so you can see the actual unboxing
progress - but that's it.
The way he talks, the way he acts, and the quality of the video are all different.
We all start out rough around the edges - still learning our cameras, still learning how to
create high production value, how to act on camera to connect with the widest audience
possible.
This is something we all continue to learn over time.
The video has over 140 thousand views, which may invoke an initial reaction of "well
his videos were still doing better than mine do" - but that's incorrect.
This video probably didn't get many views when it first came out.
The video has only acquired that many views over the course of six years, whereas his
newer videos get 1 to 2 million views in a matter of days.
Quite a stark difference.
So what steps and elements were involved in taking Lew's channel from small-time this,
to big-time this?
Unbox Therapy was one of the first channels on YouTube making any sort of "quality"
tech and unboxing videos in this style.
YouTube wasn't super young in 2010, but this kind of pseudo-professional content wasn't
around just yet.
By being one of the "first" channels, Lew had a huge advantage to get embedded into
YouTube's search algorithms and overall brand awareness.
That's many more years of product coverage to be searched for and found by viewers than
the rest of us.
Not to mention starting with the name "Unbox Therapy" as "unboxing" is first becoming
a thing, is a big deal, too.
The jump to 4K was also a huge promotion opportunity for many channels.
By being one of the first channels to jump to 4K, Unbox Therapy got a lot of extra promotion
and highlighting from YouTube when they started drawing attention to the site's new 4K capabilities.
Plus, as a channel that appeals to techies, the 4K resolution was very appealing for enthusiasts
to watch in the best quality possible.
Once the Unbox Therapy channel started turning a high enough profit, he brought on interns
and a team to help him product content.
A team means the amount of work that can be put out grows exponentially - more videos
edited quicker, more social media and promotion work, more reaching out to companies, and
so on.
This will automatically lead to improvements for the channel and growth due to just more
being able to be done.
One person only has so many hours in the day.
Over time, Lew developed a very excitable and charismatic personality - the penultimate
sign of an experienced, developed YouTuber.
This allows him to be more entertaining and connectable to a wider audience.
If your videos are full of mumbling, uhms, and uhhs, or you aren't excited in your
videos - you still have much work to do.
Lew is THE hype man of tech on YouTube.
Lastly, YouTube is a self-feeding cycle.
The more videos you post (as long as they're good videos that people enjoy), the more opportunities
there are for people to discover your channel - and thus your channel grows.
The more subscribers you gain and keep around, the better your videos will do: Giving you
better ranks in search results and continuing the cycle of more people finding your videos.
YouTube also likes to promote their most successful channels - it's good business.
So the better your channel does, the more natural and direct promotion your channel
gets, and you just continue to grow.
Eventually Lew has the financial backing from his channel to host big giveaways, buy the
latest products to show off as soon as they come out, and so on - all huge advantages
to keep building more success.
An example of both this and his team's efficiency playing a role in his success would be the
whole "Bend Gate" ordeal.
They were able to quickly source iPhones to "bend test," along with the tools and
such, and put together videos quick enough to take advantage of the trending topic.
This resulted in HUGE growth in his channel.
You will notice certain, commonly-mentioned things are NOT on my list: Being secretly
paid and promoted by the biggest companies ever or YouTube, being in cahoots with YouTube,
cheating, buying subs and views, "getting lucky" and so on.
Those things aren't how YouTube actually works.
Behind every truly-successful channel is a dedicated host or team, years of hard work,
and polish that can only come from experience.
Every channel's success (or most of them, at least) can be broken down into easily-understandable
and potentially-repeatable elements.
Heck, my own channel's good qualities are nothing more than specific, dissected aspects
of the content (both from YouTube and "old media") that I found enjoyable, adapted
for my own style and content goals.
BUT not everyone has the most charismatic personality, access to the newest products,
a good idea of what "good content" even is, or the ability to pop out frequent videos.
We all sucked horribly when we started YouTube, no solo channel is an exception to this.
YouTube "tips," vague or otherwise, help set you on your way while you focus on developing
good content.
If you or whatever YouTuber in mind (aka. roughly 90% of channels created) never "gets
good" at making "quality content" and keeping it relevant, their channels don't
grow and eventually they die off or just say in the "it's not fair to small YouTubers"
mindset.
Not everyone has what it takes.
This is a much higher-level discussion topic compared to my usual YouTube tips.
But this came up in the comments of a previous video, and I thought a dedicated breakdown
could be insightful, and I wanted to show some love to Lew and his team for all his
hard work.
And to Jack, for remaining ever-invisible to the camera.

I'm EposVox and I'll see you next time.
