30 Minutes to Learn English Speaking Practice for Beginner 5 Daily Habits to Learn English A1 A2

So, you want to get better at English, but speaking, listening, reading or writing feels kind of tough. No sweat. We've got your back. In this video, we'll walk you through some practice with listening and speaking. You'll also pick up some new words and how to actually use them in real life. Sit back, buckle up and let's go. Part 1. Listening Practice. Let's get started with the listening practice. Listen to each sentence carefully, try to understand what it means and pay attention to new words. Don't worry if you miss something, you can listen again. Let's start. Jenny, look what I just found in the shirt rack. What did you find? This shirt. Try it on. You'd look amazing in it. This one? To our upcoming trip? Are you serious right now? Yeah, I'm serious. What's wrong with it? Feel the fabric. It's awesome. No, it's not that. It's just too simple for me. You mean it's boring? Well, you said it, not me. Oh, come on, Jenny. Okay, fine. This white shirt? No way. Too basic. It's a classic. You can pair it with anything. That's exactly why I don't want it. I don't want something that goes with everything. I want fun. I want bold. Bold? Yes, like this shirt. Oh my God, Alex, you'd look so good in it. Good? I'd look like a parrot. What? I mean, Jenny, it's just way too colorful. Better than drowning in your sea of 50 shades of black and white. Hey, I've got gray in there, too. Gray is just black's boring cousin. Still better than your closet, which looks like a crayon box had a meltdown. Hey there, welcome to H&M. I'm Ryan. It looks like you're having a bit of trouble finding what you're looking for. Can I help you guys with anything? Hey, we're shopping for a trip. Yes, please help. My boyfriend's committing fashion crimes. He chose that shirt for me. Are you saying being a fan of simple and clean looks is a crime? Simple? Even old black and white movies have more colors than your wardrobe. All right, all right, deep breaths, both of you. Let's meet in the middle, okay? Fine by me. Cool. Let's find something not too plain, not too loud. Like what? What do you think of the light blue striped one? Too boring. Too loud. Okay, what about this white shirt with polka dots? Oh, that's cute. Not a chance. No. Okay, how about this graphic t-shirt? It's unisex, you both could rock it. Honestly, not bad. If it came in green or purple, I'd be all in. No way, that's awful. Awful? Ryan, be real, what do you think? Yeah, man, spill it. I didn't sign up to be a judge in the fashion court today. You work at a fashion store, you're basically the judge. Come on, help us out. All right, how about we make it fun? Let's play a game. I'm listening. What kind of game? You each pick out a full outfit for the other. And you have to wear it at least once on your trip. That sounds like a terrible idea, but deal. I'm in too. What do you have in mind? Minimalist masterpiece. Classy, clean, timeless. Nice. Where's the skirt section? Over there, right next to the jackets. Cool, I'm heading that way. You, Ryan, stay here and keep Jenny from going off the deep end with my outfit. Not sure that's fair. Uh, yeah, you're right. How's the outfit hunt? So fun. Your summer collection is chef's kiss. You can really feel the vibe when you walk in, right? Too bad Alex has zero appreciation for fashion, Joy. Anyway, how's this shirt? Looks great to me. Oh, I love this one too. This is way harder than I thought. I want everything. Okay, time to swap outfits and try them on. Alright, here's yours. And here's yours. Wait, what is this? Did you pick this out for my old gym teacher? And what is this, a fruit salad costume? So many colors. No complaints, get in the fitting room with both of you. Let's see. Alright. Whoa, Alex, that shirt actually looks awesome on you. The colors really pop. I know, right? You look so cool and fun, and still stylish. Honestly, I don't hate it. It kind of slaps. I feel like I belong on the cover of Vogue. Told you. Your turn, Jenny. Are you sure? I don't even recognize myself in this. Come on, you mean you wear a rainbow. Your turn. Alright, alright. Wow. Do I look like a boring old teacher? No way, you look sporty but super elegant. You're not just being nice? Not at all, right Alex? Totally. It's actually refreshing seeing you in something this simple. Maybe it's because I'm wearing it? Probably. You'd look good even in a trash bag. You know what? I kind of like this outfit. It's not my usual style, but the clean look is growing on me. Sometimes you just need to find the right balance. A bold shirt shines more than a simple base. And a minimalist outfit pops with the right splash of color. You're so right. It's all about balance. So, are we buying these looks? Absolutely. You're the best fashion referee, Ryan. Anytime. Enjoy the trip, fashion icons. Now, in part two, we'll learn some new words. These words will help you speak and understand better. I will explain each word, so listen carefully. Try to remember how to use them in sentences. Let's begin with the first word. Try something on. Definition. Put on clothes to see if they fit or look good. This shirt. Try it on. You'd look amazing in it. Go with something. Definition. Match or look good together. I don't want something that goes with everything. Pick out. Definition. To choose something or someone. You each pick out a full outfit for the other. Go off the deep end. Definition. To get very angry or act crazy suddenly. You, Ryan, stay here and keep Jenny from going off the deep end with my outfit. Something grows on someone. Definition. You start to like it more over time. It's not my usual style, but the clean look is growing on me. Great job, everyone. It's time for a duet part. Let's do a duet to improve your speaking and listening. You will say the lines that appear on the screen. This practice will make you speak clearer and feel more confident. Ready? Let's begin. What did you find? This one? To our upcoming trip? Are you serious right now? No, it's not that. It's just too simple for me. Well, you said it, not me. Okay, fine. This white shirt? No way. Too basic. That's exactly why I don't want it. I don't want something that goes with everything. I want fun. I want bold. Yes, like this shirt. Oh my god, Alex. You'd look so good in it. What?
