I'm Brazilian and I'm 48. I started studying English when I was 19. I have never studied in another country, actually I have never been abroad. I've been struggling to speak good English for almost 30 years, I was on the verge of quitting looking for the perfect course and then guess what? I got to know about this channel and decided to give it a try. To me, this is the best material I have ever seen in my entire life. Ethan is a heck of a coach, the way he explains every thing is just astounding. I am saying this because I have tried many courses on the web and RealLife English is hands down the most effective I have found so far. Aww yeah, I do need to share this video with some of my friends. I am sure they'll have a blast watching it. Thank you all for those amazing lessons. You guys are the cream of the crop. Way to go!

As a native speaker, I never realized that we actually speak like this, but it is so true. Mind blown 🤯

I wish all other native speakers speak like you. I can understand you, 100 percent. Thanks so much for your lessons

I improved my understanding a 90%

I love this guy. I can say I'm fluent in English because of this channel. I've been following this guy's tips for a long time. I think it took me 1year and half. Thanks for sharing some excellent tips. Now I'm working on my accent.

Ethan, I believe the reason why your viewers understand you easily: 1. You enunciate clearly - most native speakers do not do this. 2. Viewers have an idea of what you are going to say, so they can "predict" what you are saying.

He: why you can understand me Me whispering: you're Perfect!! Good job Ethan :)

I've been studing English for over 20 years and when I speak English people say I sound like an American. I get really happy to hear that but I know I've got to improve my English even I'm able to have a very good conversation with native English speakers. This channel helps me a lot to get that.

I already know why sometimes I can not understand when a native speakers spoke with me, it's because at the institute languages don't teach english like that now I can see that I have to learn with more videos like this. Thank you so much! You are an amazing teacher!! God bless you

Hi I’m from the Ph and been workin’ in a callcenter a coupla years now talkin’ to Americans everyday and thought I wuz that good already til I watch this vid. Awesome keep it up.

Thanks Ethan! I just watched it and took some notes, really useful 👏🤓 I love your lessons and your channel ❤️

I had been searching this topic for ages, and I finally got to this video. Thank you Ethan, this is one of the best videos about connected speech ever!

I love your accent, intonation, and pronunciation so awesome.

I am kind of surprised how all this came naturally to me. I am a native Swede living in Canada since 20 years back. I constantly speak fast connecting speech. Every single example you did. I'm sure in some occasions my accent could show. But speaking and so on it's all natural for me and of course I understand everything when a "native born" speak fast connected and all the examples. I don't need any of these lessons personally. But it's fun actually listening and seeing it all explained etc.

Thanks a lot ethan, cause I can improve my English skill with this channel a Little by little

Hi, my name is Walther, excuse me by little English; I'm learning every time more with your tips in pronunciation, so I improve the speaking of the language. I feeling well every day it see my dedication and I have hope that soon will be to tell better in some conversations.... thanks for your help and support in this channel...

You're such an amazing guy.... I never felt comfortable with learning English with anybody but you a lot.... You really know what we need and even the way that we can understand..... Good job 👍

We have to prepare for this, because there are no subtitles if you meet a real native speakers

This lesson only lasts eighteen minutes but it has taught me something valuable; something that I haven't learned at school in all these years. This lesson wasn't easy. I don't know how many times I've seen it, exercising every time, but I can see the effects of these exercises now. Thank you, Ethan!

Your teaching is excellent Ethan I understand complete class without missing word .

I really like your videos they make learn a lot i didn't know you had other chanel good bless✌

It happens in every new language, I had to learn English when I moved to California from South America, so yes a lot of words are shortened and we aren’t able to hear them because of lock of practice of listening in the target language, I would only turned the tv in English, today I use KZfaq to learn a different language...

so grateful, I didn't notice that before

I love one of the phrases Ethan says in the Memrise course. Slow: To hell with my boss, he is a jerk. Fast: Tell with my boss, he's a jerk

I love that guy so much much

Wow, as a native speaker I still learned a lot from this video. It never dawned on me how much we butcher the english language as Americans. Lol

I always love to listen when native speaking acording with gramatic what i dont understand tryi to find aut and also like this clasess was realy interested to go improving my speaking and listening skills thans

This is the most amazing and useful English learning channel I've ever seen. And this is the most beautiful, useful, and amazing lesson ever made. Share this lesson to those learners who are disappointed to understand and speak fast speaking English, Definitely, they will fall in love with this channel. And you will do great help to them.

Thank you, ethan 💜

We also tend to say stuff pronounced like "half-tuh" instead of "have to"

hi, I'm from Algeria and I know well how to connect words and I do it usually, but I can't understand movies easilly!! so I guess it's because they talk fast!! actually I don't know exactly what happend lol I hope you teach us about this, and you give us an advices about how can we talk fast I mean some propositions about topics maybe, thank you very much

Man I'm working on something now and this video came in handy

You're awesome! Thanks

Hi Ethan you don't how much you've helped me,i'm really happy that you teach us this. And I have to say this never taught my teachers. Thank you so much.😉😉😉

That's exactly the lesson I wanted to understand native English speakers!Thanks heaps for this freaking useful lesson!

Yeah the nt - t dropping was fun when I was in the U.S. I would always wonder if we were going on an interstate or innerstate road... Then I found out there is no such a thing as innerstate...

Looking forward to watching it!

Great job Great professor Great Content

Thanks a lot!

Great job, thanks

Watching youtube can be easier. But when meeting real native speakers sound more difficult. Yes, because they use connected speech. Thank you very much for this video.

I wish the other native speakers would speak in the same manner like you, man. To be honest, I still cannot imagine how you guys in US can understand each other 🤪

your English is so great and I can understand everything, without shade of doubt. I wanna be like you one day

please..... say the examples a little bit slower, I could not get some of them. Love this channel .....you are the best

Thank you from Algeria 🇩🇿🇩🇿

Great ,thank you so much for sharing this video it is very helpful for me because there are lost contractions, that is very difficult and confusing to me but with your help, i am understanding thanks again.

I always asked this question 🎉

U know what i can't afford the course, but i do watching you and practice it every single day😊. Thanks dear teacher😊

Hi Ethan this is an authentic lesson you've given incredible information on how native connected speech someone can tell that this is boring how we can practice connected speech nevertheless, we should practice connected speech consistently because this sound more natural not a robotic we should listen again and again what would happen we can understand easily what is saying, Native speakers. Thanks.
