Practice English Speaking&Listening with: Hướng dẫn học kết hợp Eng Breaking và Ulti Pronun

Normal

Hello everybody,

Im Dave from X3English.

Recently, weve received many questions about our courses

such as

Ive already purchased both Eng Breaking

and Ulti Pronun courses

but Im very confused about how to study them effectively

or Which one should I study first,

Eng Breaking, or Ulti Pronun?

So in this video

I will introduce to you 3 learning methods

along with detailed steps to combine and make the best of both courses

Lets get started!

The first method I recommend for people unable to command basic English,

is that you should study Eng Breaking first,

and leave the Ulti Pronun for later.

With Eng Breaking, you will study real-life conversations.

This course is specifically designed

to peak your interest in English

via colorful texts,

entertaining topics,

and a detailed learners guide.

However, this method has a drawback.

Of course you can communicate with native speakers

right after learning English Breaking.

But what Eng Breaking provides is the practice,

not the technique.

It helps you interact with native speakers

in the most natural and comfortable way.

When it comes to correct pronunciation of complex words,

you would need to return to the fundamentals to get it right.

You might find that youve been pronouncing some words wrong,

even made a habit of it,

and you have to re-learn it.

The second method,

is if you already have the needed basic knowledge of English.

If so, I suggest that you start with the Ulti Pronun course

Because correct pronunciation .

is one of the most important factors to communicate fluently.

If you study the Ulti Pronun course first,

you can practice the IPA sound methodically and accurately.

This can help you improve your listening skills,

as well as differentiate the seemingly similar sounds

from native speakers.

After this

youll find Eng Breakings deep listening section

much easier to go through

and quickly finish the catching-up part.

Additionally, the Ulti Pronun courses checklist

has simpler steps than the Eng Breaking course.

Which means you can follow an easy-to-difficult schedule,

so that you can gradually adapt to the learning process.

But theres also a third option,

which I think is the most effective way to study:

Why dont we combine both the Eng Breaking course and Ulti course at the same time?

For people with an elementary level

you can study 1 or 2 lessons of Eng Breaking

to get familiar with the pronunciation and intonation of native speakers

Test the waters first,

then you can start learning both courses at the same time.

If you are at an intermediate level,

you can learn Eng Breaking and Ulti Pronun simultaneously from the start.

Now a brief explanation of this method:

when you learn Eng Breaking, you will come across a word

that has the same pronunciation as the Ulti Pronun textbook.

Then you can start applying the technique

introduced by Ulti Pronun to practice with the conversations in Eng Breaking.

I will give you the specific instructions now.

In the first lesson of Ulti Pronun

we will learn about the /i:/ sound

There are two sounds that are similar.

They are /i:/ and //.

When you learn Eng Breaking, you can easily mistake these 2 sounds.

For example in lesson 1, they are:

this,

is,

meet,

mean.

So how can we know if one word is /i:/ or //?

When you study at the same time, with help from Ulti Pronun,

you will understand how to pronounce each sound correctly.

It will help you differentiate these 2 sounds.

We will use hands to demonstrate how to pronounce these words.

With the /i:/ sound, put your tongue higher:

/i:/

And with the // sound, lower your tongue a bit:

And now in lesson 1 of Eng Breaking,

the words that have /i:/ sound are meet and mean.

The words that have // sound are this and is

To differentiate the sounds between Deep Listening and Catching Up,

we will practice the /i:/ sound

by what we call a 3-stage Technique and a Sharpening Technique.

Now, you find words that have /i:/ sound in lesson 1 of Eng Breaking:

meet

mean

First, you practice this word using the 3-stage technique.

Step 1, we will hold the /i:/ sound for 3 seconds:

Meet

Mean

Step 2, we are going to hold this sound for 1 second:

Meet

Mean

And finally, we will say the words normally:

Meet

mean

So now, we will repeat the step but applying them in sentences.

Dont forget to do the 3 different parts.

First is holding for 3 seconds

Nice to meet you, Peter

Nice to meet you too, Felice

It means happy in Latin

Now we hold them for 1 second

Nice to meet you, Peter

Nice to meet you too, Felice

It means happy in Latin

Lets say those sentences again but normally.

Are you ready? OK

Nice to meet you, Peter

Nice to meet you too, Felice

It means happy in Latin

After practicing the 3-stage Technique,

lets move on to the Sharpening Technique with these two words.

In this step, you will practice them the same way you did the 3-stage Technique

but adding intonation to the sound

Again, we will practice the words in 3 parts.

Now holding the sound for three seconds but adding a rising intonation.

meet

mean

Now with falling intonation

Meet

mean

Now we hold the sound for one second but adding a rising intonation

meet

mean

And now, falling intonation

meet

mean

Were saying these 2 words again but normally

Remember to practice them with pitch

meet

mean

meet

mean

Alright, after mastering each single word,

we can try them in sentences.

First, hold the sound for 3 seconds,

adding the pitch.

Nice to meet you, Peter

Nice to meet you too, Felice
