I have a friend, and he speaks English really well. And he was telling me that he likes to practice English with his brother especially. And he mentioned something very interesting. He said that when he's speaking and talking and practicing English, the conversation flows right? It's perfectly fine. However, he told me that he doesn't feel like himself.

He's kind of losing his identity and his personal expressiveness when he's communicating in English. So I started thinking, and I realized that this was a problem that I felt some years ago as well. So in this segment, let's completely take care of this issue of a feeling of being non Authentic or being not yourself when you're using another language, in our case, English. Now, in the previous two segments, we have worked on refining and personalizing your English vocabulary, so that it becomes authentic and completely specialized and adapted to your own circumstances, interests and needs. Right? You know that it is preposterously easy to create and implement new vocabulary.

You know that you can cause a riveting effect in people if you use powerful words. And you will be amazingly awesome to your friends and people that listen to you if you're applying these tips and techniques from the previous sections. But now let's take it to the next level. Now, I like to help my students find their own English voice, their own English style of communication. I always tell them, we don't really want to speak American English or British English or Australia and South African English. We don't want to copy and sound exactly the same as other people or other nationalities in other cultures.

Now, if you want to do this, that's perfectly fine. I have many friends and many teachers that speak exactly like an American person, even though they are Mexican, or Spanish or Italian. However, the English that I enjoy the most is the English that my friends and people that I know speak that's completely personalized and adapted to their identity. So that should be our goal. Our goal is to speak Clear English so that everybody that listens to you can understand it, but at the same time, adding your personal touch. So you can communicate your personality and be authentic when you're speaking English, not only a copy of the copy of the copy.

Sounds good. How can we do this? Okay, so here is a best tip that I have for you to create an authentic English style. Mix whatever you like about English and combine it with your own culture, nationality, and language. If you're French, you should keep a little bit of your French ness, your German, keep your German unity in your English. If you're Mexican, you should definitely keep a little bit of your Mexican knowledge.

Let me show you what I mean. Imagine you're having a business meeting with some managers from your company from Canada, United States, England and Australia. You're the only Mexican there and suddenly, you see a cockroach. You say? I mean, that seems gusting right. I cockroaches is costing.

You could be saying something like, you know, to these gusting cockroach, and it's perfectly fine. It's descriptive. But what if you say, whack Allah. There's a cockroach on the floor. Right? I love adding certain Mexican words to my English communication.

Some words that are completely easy for people to understand because they're obvious and don't affect my meaning, but transmit my Mexican part right so easily. I really don't know many examples that I can give you. Because the words that I use are the words that in my culture my community, I learned and I have used throughout my life. So, try to do that try to pay attention to the words you enjoy the most and express your identity the most in your own language, and try to find ways to add them or blend them in your English speaking. Now, you have to be careful, you don't want to mix the languages so it becomes confusing, or so that you give the idea that you don't really know English, so that's why you're using Spanish or French or German or Italian or whatever your language. The idea that we're trying to transmit here is that you perfectly use English and feel comfortable using English in fact, You feel so comfortable using English and so comfortable speaking to English natives, that you can also add a little bit of your own flavor of your own identity of your own culture and your own language.

Right. So there are many examples, but I cannot give you the examples that worked for me, because maybe these are words that you've never used or you've will understand. So find your own, make a list and experiment a little bit. See if they fit in your English communication, if it sounds good. And as always experiment, try to use them in real situations, and nobody's a reaction. So people notice if they understand you notice if they pay attention to that word, and it catches their interest if they ask you, or if they're getting confused and they have a puzzled face.

Maybe The changes are avoided right. So, by experimenting in the real world, you will know which words and which expressions can work for you and which ones you should avoid. Now, we have been deeply working on your vocabulary, we have been refining, personalizing and growing your vocabulary so that it becomes more influential, powerful, descriptive, and useful for your life and your needs. Right, we learned about the power words and we also learned ways to be bought more versatile, creative, direct, and specific with your adjectives and adverbs. And we also discussed the tip of adding a little bit of your own touch of your own flavor of your own culture and language and a expressions. Now, can you tell me three new words that you discovered in these last sessions that you can think of without going back on the video, or reading from your notes?

I'm sure you could remember at least two of these words right? Now, the reason I'm mentioning this is because some students sometimes get a little anxious or confused when we're talking about vocabulary, because they remember 234 new words, but they don't feel satisfied because they don't remember the other 10 words. And what I tell them is, please learn to see the positive side, guess what, you have three new, very powerful words that can really improve the way you sound in English. So the 10 other words that you don't remember, don't worry about You're not losing anything. However, you're gaining three very vailable works for you. So if you're ever feeling a little anxious because you will not be retaining all of the words, or all of the formulas or structures or whatever, try to switch your mindset a little bit.

You're not losing anything. And you can review these videos anytime you want to keep adding and remembering your words. You should be feeling very excited and satisfied, however, about your three, two or one new word or tape or technique that you can start applying immediately. You see what I'm trying to say here? Don't worry. When you forget things, it's fine.

You can always review and be reminded of the word or formula that you forgot. But if you focus on the things that now you have It. There's a tangible, measurable and real way that your English has improved, and you should be completely excited about that. All right, I'll see you soon in step number five, where we will work in achieving memory super powers. My name is Jay and I hope that you stay well.
