00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.199
have you ever put together a puzzle you

2
00:00:03.199 --> 00:00:05.120
see the picture on the box

3
00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:07.359
then you dump out the pieces and you

4
00:00:07.359 --> 00:00:09.200
start putting it together

5
00:00:09.200 --> 00:00:12.080
do you immediately know exactly where

6
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:13.840
every piece goes

7
00:00:13.840 --> 00:00:16.720
no probably not you have to try

8
00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:18.000
different pieces

9
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:21.199
one at a time until you have the picture

10
00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:24.239
completed learning to speak english is a

11
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:26.640
lot like putting together a puzzle

12
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:28.640
when you're putting together a puzzle

13
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:31.359
it's best to sort out the pieces

14
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:34.079
and group similar pieces together when

15
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:35.440
you're speaking english

16
00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:38.239
this is like learning vocabulary grammar

17
00:00:38.239 --> 00:00:40.239
and pronunciation

18
00:00:40.239 --> 00:00:42.320
then you want to start building the

19
00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:43.360
frame

20
00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:46.559
think of the frame of the puzzle as the

21
00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:47.840
basics

22
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:50.320
the frame is the straight edges and the

23
00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:51.760
corner pieces

24
00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:54.239
well this puzzle is a circle but you

25
00:00:54.239 --> 00:00:55.520
know what i mean

26
00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:58.480
this holds everything together and gives

27
00:00:58.480 --> 00:00:58.719
you

28
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:01.359
a frame for learning to speak english

29
00:01:01.359 --> 00:01:02.719
confidently

30
00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:05.840
think of each puzzle piece as a word

31
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:08.880
each word you learn and practice becomes

32
00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:10.720
a puzzle piece that fits with

33
00:01:10.720 --> 00:01:12.640
another piece and then another and

34
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:15.040
another until you start to see

35
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:18.560
a full picture emerge maybe there's one

36
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:20.240
part of the english language

37
00:01:20.240 --> 00:01:22.799

38
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:24.240
or that you're really good at

39
00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:27.040
so you fill it in easily but then there

40
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:29.600
is another part that seems really hard

41
00:01:29.600 --> 00:01:31.840
where are all these pieces and how will

42
00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:33.920
i ever fit it together

43
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:37.119
no worries take it slow and observe the

44
00:01:37.119 --> 00:01:38.000
pieces and

45
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:40.640
how they fit together can you figure out

46
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:42.720
how to connect it to something else

47
00:01:42.720 --> 00:01:44.078
you've learned

48
00:01:44.078 --> 00:01:47.280
word by word and piece by piece you make

49
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:50.240
progress you fill in the gaps and you

50

133
00:04:36.960 --> 00:04:38.080
you need it

134
00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:39.759
have you ever been trying to put

135
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:41.919
together a puzzle and you can't figure

136
00:04:41.919 --> 00:04:43.600
out that missing piece

137
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:45.919
maybe you even convince yourself that

138
00:04:45.919 --> 00:04:48.080
the piece is lost that you'll never find

139
00:04:48.080 --> 00:04:48.639
it

140
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:50.639
that it was never in the box to begin

141
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:53.440
with learning to speak english can feel

142
00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:54.639
the same way

143
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:56.639
like you're missing something and maybe

144
00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:58.160
you'll never find it

145
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.400
but when you take a break and come back

146
00:05:00.400 --> 00:05:01.600
to the puzzle

147
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:04.639
and english learning with a fresh mind

148
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:06.479
