Hello, everyone. When I went on a trip to Bali this year and briefly stayed at hostels where young people from various countries were staying, I met many friends and felt greatly stimulated. From then on, I realized that I really need to study film diligently to maintain the lively feeling of using dopamine for personal growth. However, as I returned to my daily routine, the dopamine and lively sensations gradually faded, leading to a lack of motivation and noticing that I was settling at my current level. So, I thought I need to make time again to output in English, create opportunities to encounter and practice living English. Therefore, I turned on the Cambly app and saw my teaching records from 2019 lined up neatly.

Even though it's on video, I really felt a significant improvement. I can't help but admit that I can't see it with my eyes wide open. Still, I feel rewarded for steadily studying English little by little. They say there will be a big promotion on Cambly in June, but I'll show you more from behind. Love, love. I should learn this sentence, I put my blood and tears in it. Yeah, blood, sweat, and tears. Blood, sweat, and tears. Yeah, we've been putting our blood, sweat, and tears into it in Korea. I've been putting my blood, sweat, and tears into my YouTube channel for eight years. Yeah, yeah. It's been a lot. I left England and started traveling, and I've been doing that for eight years. I've spent about six months in total in England in the last eight years, so you know, I come back to visit friends and family. Exactly. This British teacher, in his case, has a very charming pronunciation. So unknowingly, I imitate the British pronunciation when addressing this teacher as SW and tear. Also, while living as a digital nomad and traveling to various countries, you can meet many people and hear interesting stories. This person is someone who...

Did they have that kind of charm like friends? I've been doing my ancestry research, you know, family tree. If I go back 100 years, it's very difficult to find records of what people did. I think your descendants, right, they will just... just go. Can you just read that? Yeah, this is a real problem for Koreans. Okay, let me try really quick. Each teacher has a different teaching style, so with this teacher, we chat, practice pronunciation correction, oh, I want to teach too, so when I mentioned that, they immediately brought in the Cambly curriculum, and I was able to teach. What I realized this time is that I must have learned English through movies in my daily life, so when I do freetalking, I speak more naturally. But when I try to have a formal class with the teacher, I still don't quite grasp how to react in a formal setting, how to interrupt at what timing, and how long of a sentence I should speak. I still lack a sense of these things. In the future, I will ask more about how to respond in class.

I focused on preparing this kind of thing alone and actually tried Cambliss and asked the teacher if it was right to do this, and I also tried this kind of lesson. Blood, sweat, and tears, yeah, yeah, blood, sweat, and tears, start to pay off. So yesterday, I did the second one and I was really nervous. It was a big deal for me since I don't have much experience. But it's good that you are starting to gain experience in it. Even if things don't turn out exactly how you want them to, at least you can learn from it. Do you get to keep them? Usually, I choose the product at the moment. Many, many products and offers, so I choose what I truly like. I never just quit using it after the show. I personally truly like it. English speakers have priority because they have more audience, but in Korea, I don't have many audiences speaking in Korean, listening in Korea. Did you want to go over this lesson? No, no, no, I don't mind. Okay. Can I ask you what kind of camera you use to make your videos? Let me show you. It's just in front of me. Mostly, I use this Canon camera. And on that day, I suddenly wanted to have a lesson so much, so I immediately connected with a person who became a teacher, and I started because I didn't have much to say. So I just

Because you like it, the teacher made the class fun and led it through freetalking. Even if you don't make a reservation like this and suddenly look for a teacher, there are so many Cambly teachers that you can connect right away. These teachers are from South Africa, and I have studied by listening to the pronunciation of British, Australian, American, Canadian, and South African accents here. If you are planning to study abroad in a specific country and want to practice the accent of that country or listen to English, it would be very helpful for those who want to do so. Personally, I think a crucial point in studying English is to create input and output simultaneously. I've been studying a lot because I have to study for exams.

I used to do this, but for a while, I didn't study at all like this, and when I study like this a lot, my vocabulary range definitely widens a lot. Then, when I don't use it, it disappears, and it feels like it's just in my head, and it disappears when the test is over. I really feel it throughout my body. So, I feel like I should utilize it a bit as much as I put it in, so I recommend trying to connect input through personal study and then actually using it through output. Also, what I really enjoy watching on YouTube is the mock test videos that are uploaded by level by level for archi studying. From 4.0 to 9.0, if you watch it by level, you can think, I can do better than this person, or I can't do as well as this person. It clearly shows. If I say I'm at level 7 in IELTS, I look for 7.5, look for 8, and 9.9.

I usually watch ILC 8.0 and 9.0, and learn by thinking, Oh, people express themselves like this. So, I'm not thinking about taking the IL exam, but I am learning in this flow of thinking how people express themselves to get high scores. Therefore, the second tip is to copy someone who is slightly better than you and gradually improve your level. Suddenly trying to speak like a native speaker when you've been saying Hi, hello is difficult, right? So, think of it as gradually stepping up and copying someone a little better than you. In that context, I think it's like being told to watch English YouTubers for shadowing. If you watch something that is too advanced, it's hard to follow along, so try to go up one level at a time.

In CamBly, there is now an automatic recording function. So, I used this feature to create videos. However, when editing the videos, I feel more confident about the parts where I edit the videos really precisely to convey my logic. Things don't turn out how exactly you want them to be. Things don't turn out exactly how you want them to. This sentence is not the original structure of what I was saying, but I practiced it a lot because I really liked it and it stuck with me. So, by utilizing this recording function, I keep replaying my classes and absorbing the teacher's tone and nuances. Unlike the second case, content that is not very related to me may not resonate well. However, when I continue to review and learn content that I was actively involved in during classes with the teacher, the words I actually used and heard are practiced more.

It was really helpful to use the recording function to study. By being a teacher or a happy person, you can give the impression that you are doing better. Cambrly ES offers a maximum 50% discount for all plans for only one week. Moreover, for those who purchase a 12-month plan, they will receive an additional 120 minutes and a tumbler as a gift for just one week, and even TOEIC speaking practice materials. Especially for those who want to study English steadily for a long period, I hope you don't miss this opportunity. Also, you can have a 30-minute trial lesson for only 1,000 won. The biggest barrier I think of this English conversation app is starting it. Once you try it, it's not a big deal, but starting it feels really difficult. I felt the same way at first, but now, if you don't take even one step, there won't be any change.

It seems like it's not starting. Would I have not been afraid to go to a hostel and talk to native speakers and have a conversation with them? I felt so embarrassed and worried about what if they think my English is weird. I had a lot of thoughts like that, but if not now, when would I try something like this and gather the courage to talk to people? I thought that if I keep thinking like this, I will lose more and more courage. So, with a forced enthusiasm, I made an effort to say, How are you? with a fake high energy. If you are interested in studying English, when you feel a little determination like this, don't let go of that willpower and push yourself courageously. You can do it. You should do it now. That's why when the class starts, I just click and deliberately wait without any thoughts because if I think too much, I might cancel it. Foreign languages.

It feels like it never ends, so I will continue to steadily show you a little by little effort in the future, so it would be nice to study hard together. Then, I will come back with helpful tip videos next time.
