This 49 second video can transform your English practice


Hello Reader,

In just 49 seconds, you will learn the "secret" to getting better with your English skills. All from a guy teaching you how to make better videos for content. Don't believe me? (Bonus: you might also get a laugh or two out of it! Not a bad combo for a 48 second time investment!)

The takeaway: "You get better at making videos by making crappy ones and sharing them." "You find your voice by using it." -Ed Oyama.

Why that matters for you?

If you want to get better with your fluency in English, and get better CELPIP results: You need to use your voice more (in English) and make crappy conversations happen. The more crappy conversations in English you get into, the better your skills will become.

Keep at it long enough, and your CELPIP scores will go up too.

Fluency is directly related to self-confidence.

Self-confidence is directly related to fluency.

Improve one, and the other comes along for the ride.
