Want to use this strategy to improve your own speaking?
If yes, This course can help you do that. It’s designed to help you become a fluent English speaker using my strategy.
The course is called English Fluency Training. It consists of four modules (levels):
- Module 1 — Basic
- Module 2 — Intermediate
- Module 3 — Advanced
- Module 4 — Fluent
Let’s talk about each module in detail.
Module 1 — Master the Basics
This module is designed for students who…
- Have trouble forming sentences.
- Have difficulty forming questions with proper sentence structure.
- Don’t have confidence because of their poor pronunciation.
If you have these problems, here’s how this module can help you:
Benefit #1: Improve your ability to form complex sentences
A common problem English students have is that they have trouble forming sentences. This makes them hesitate to speak English.
If you have this problem, you need a lot of practice, and this module will give you the practice you need.
Here’s how: in some of the lessons, the teacher will ask you a lot of questions in English. Your job is to answer every question out loud. Sometimes, you’ll have to provide short and easy answers. Other times, you’ll have to provide long and complex answers.
After you complete these lessons, you’ll be able to speak English with good sentence structure.
Here are some examples of the actual sentences you’ll be practicing:
- “He’s not thinking about buying a new television.”
- “If they get the chores done today, she’ll take them to Disneyland.”
- “When they were little, they thought Santa Claus was real.”
- “Max knows that drinking alcohol is bad for his health.”
- “He wasn’t sad or angry that his mom forgot his birthday.”
- “They can’t set up their meeting on Tuesday because Scott won’t be in the office.”
Benefit #2: Improve your ability to ask questions
Asking questions is an important skill. In a real conversation, you can’t just talk non-stop; you also have to ask questions sometimes.
Unfortunately, most English students cannot put words in the right order to form a question. Why? Because their teachers don’t teach them this skill. (I’m not surprised. This skill is very difficult to teach.)
But don’t worry. In Module 1, you’ll get to practice asking all kinds of questions in English.
Here’s how: in some of the lessons, the teacher will make a lot of statements in English. Your job is to turn each statement into a question.
Benefit #3: Improve your pronunciation (so that you have more confidence when you speak English)
Imagine that you’re talking to a foreigner in English.
You’re trying to tell him something. But your pronunciation is very hard to understand. So he responds with a confused look on his face.
Having good pronunciation is important. If your pronunciation isn’t clear enough, others won’t understand you. They will find it difficult to have a conversation with you.
The good news is, the lessons in Module 1 can improve your pronunciation.
Here’s how to use the lessons to improve your pronunciation:
- Use each lesson several times until you can say every sentence with correct sentence structure. Then move on to the next lesson.
- After you complete all the lessons, go back to the first lesson. Practice with all the lessons again. But this time, use the lessons to improve your pronunciation. Here’s how: when the teacher gives feedback, pause the lesson and repeat after the teacher. Do your best to imitate the teacher’s pronunciation. It’s quite difficult to change your pronunciation, so repeat each lesson several times.
- After 2 – 3 months, come back to Module 1 and practice imitating the teacher again. This is important. Like I said, changing the way you pronounce words is difficult. That’s why you need a lot of repetition.
I’ve personally used the lessons in Module 1 to improve my own pronunciation. I’m Thai. And I used to speak English with a strong Thai accent. (You can hear it in my YouTube videos, which were recorded in 2014.). So, I used the lessons to reduce that accent.
So, even if you’re not a beginner, you can still benefit from this module.
Module 1 has 20 lessons. These lessons have different “levels of difficulty.“
the first few lessons are easy. But as you move on to later lessons, the practice will get more difficult. I designed the course this way because I wanted to keep pushing your spoken English to the next level.
Of course, the lessons in Module 2 will be even more difficult. So, let’s talk about Module 2.
Module 2 — Intermediate Training
This module is for people who…
- Have trouble talking about events that happened in the past.
- Can’t express their thoughts and ideas clearly.
- Can’t say anything long or substantial in English. (Can only say a few basic sentences at a time.)
If you have these problems, here’s how this module can help you:
Benefit #1: Improve your ability to tell stories
Many students have trouble talking about events that happened in the past (using the Past tense).
So, in some of the lessons, the teacher will tell you a story (an event that happened in the past). Then, he will ask you a lot of questions about that story. Your job is to answer every question out loud.
That’s not all. At the end of the lesson, you will have to tell the whole story yourself from beginning to end. (You won’t get it right the first time. That’s OK. You’re supposed to use these lessons several times.)
Benefit #2: Improve your ability to express ideas clearly
Some students complained to me that they can’t express their thoughts clearly.
Oftentimes, they want to tell people what they’re thinking. But they can’t put it into words. So, instead of saying what they want to say, they usually say nothing (or say something very basic).
That’s why, in some of the lessons, you will get to practice expressing ideas.
Here’s how it works: the teacher will read you a passage (a piece of writing). Then, he will ask you questions about that passage. And at the end of the lesson, you’ll have to express the ideas from the passage in your own words.
Benefit #3: Improve your ability to give long speeches
Can you talk non-stop in English for 5 – 10 minutes without reading a script?
If you can’t, don’t worry. This module will train you to do that.
Here’s how: in some of the lessons, you will get to practice giving a long speech (to an imaginary person).
For example:
- In one of these lessons, you have to convince your co-worker to stop complaining about his salary.
- In another lesson, you have to make your sister believe that a busy person like her can become a writer.
- In another lesson, you have to encourage your friend to keep working on his business.
Don’t worry if this sounds difficult. The teacher will guide you along the way so that you know what to say.

Module 4 — Becoming Fluent in EnglishThe course would not be complete without this last module.Here’s why this module is so important…To become fluent in English, you need to have a LARGE speaking vocabulary.Even if you can speak English with perfect grammar, you won’t be able to communicate well if you can’t use a lot of English words in speech.So, if you want to become fluent, you need to expand your speaking vocabulary.This module will help you do that.
How to Expand Speaking VocabularyIn this module, I teach you another way to practice the Imitation technique. Instead of practicing with my lessons, you’ll learn how to practice the technique with English-language videos or podcasts that can be found online.
Imitation is the main reason I can speak English well, despite the fact that I’ve never been to an English-speaking country.And I truly believe it’s the best language-learning technique in the world.
Here’s why:- There’s no limit to how much you can improve. As long as you keep using the technique, your spoken English will keep getting better.
- Other than your speaking vocabulary, using this technique will also improve your grammar and pronunciation.
- You don’t need a speaking partner! All you need is some English material, which is readily available online (YouTube, podcasts, etc.).
- Learning English by imitating native speakers ensures that you will speak English naturally like a native.
