??Hello, I'm E小妹a from 小妹mEnglish! Since you're here at 小妹mEnglish, I think it's safe to assume that you're learning English, right?
大师好呀，我是艾玛，招待来到小妹mEnglish！已然你都光临我的频道了，那我猜你必定在学英语吧？
But tell me, do you live in an English-speaking country? Or are you planning to one day?
不过奉告我，你如今糊口在英语国度吗？或是你方案将往来不断英语国度糊口呢？
Perhaps you're planning to study in America or live in London for a year to improve your English.
Maybe you're trying to get your visa to work in Australia or Canada.
或许你正在方案去美国粹习，或是在伦敦糊口一年，提升你的英语。
你可以正在请求签证，想去澳大利亚或是加拿大作业。
I'm curious. Let me know in the co小妹ents if you are planning to study or work in an English-speaking country because living in an English-speaking country can be an incredible opportunity to improve your English.
我极猎奇呢。如果你想去英语国度进修或作业的话，在谈论里奉告我吧，因为在英语国度糊口是提升英语的超等可贵的机缘。
So if you ever have the opportunity to do it, well do. But just because you moved to the UK, Australia, America, Canada, New Zealand, it doesn't mean that you will suddenly speak perfect English like magic.
所以如果你有机缘的话，那就太棒了。可是，只是因为你搬到了英国、澳大利亚、美国、加拿大或是新西兰，其实不代表你会邪术般地遽然讲出很是完善的英语。
It is totally possible to live in an English-speaking country and rarely use English at all. So today I'm going to give you nine tips to help you make the most of your time abroad.
糊口在英语国度，可是很少使用英语是完全可以的。所以今日我要给你九条小技能，协助你充分操作你的国外的时分。
Now I've got nine, but perhaps you've got a few of your own tips too. So if you do, please add them to the co小妹ents if you think I've missed any.
我有九条主张，可是你可以也有本身的小技能吧。如果你真的有，请添加在谈论中，如果你感触我遗失了的话。
Even if you don't live in an English-speaking country, you will still be able to apply some of these tips to the way that you study English in your own country.
Now living in a new country is never easy and even more of a challenge if you need to use a different language but if you participate in your new life, you will notice a phenomenal improvement to your English language skills.
即便你其实不在英语国度糊口，你也可以使用这内里的一些技能，协助你在本身的国度进修英语。
在新的国度糊口其实不简略，而如果你必要使用一门完全不合的说话的话，就加倍有应战性了，可是如果你充分融入你的复生活，你的英语才能必定会有质的提升的。
But before I go on, make sure you subscribe to the 小妹mEnglish Channel.
Click that button right there and share this lesson with your friends if you think it could benefit them.
可是在我持续早年，请必定要定阅小妹mEnglish频道哦。
点击上方按钮，把这节课程共享给你的朋友，如果你感触会对他们有所协助的话。
Share the love. Tip number one: Don't live with someone who speaks your native language.
共享咱们的爱。小诀窍1：不要和说你的母语的人住在一块儿。
And in my opinion, the most important one today.
Now I'm sure that you would feel more comfortable sharing a house with a friend or a family member or at least someone who speaks your native language, right?
我感触这是今日最首要的一条了。和朋友或是家人，最少是和你说共同种母语的人一块儿糊口，必定会感触加倍惬意吧？
You'd probably have a whole lot of fun with them.
They will probably understand your jokes, they cook meals that remind you of your mum's cooking and share lots of nice memories from home.
你可以会和他们共处的很高兴。
他们会了解你的笑话，他们会烹调菜肴，让你回想你你母亲的厨艺，而且你们可以共享不少故乡的夸姣回想。
But this is not going to help you to improve your English, right?
At the end of the day, no matter how motivated you think you will be, you won't be motivated to keep practising your English when it's so easy just to fall back to speaking your native language.
可是这其实不能帮你提升英语，是吧？
一天竣事之时，不管你感触你多么地斗志高昂，你并无积极地去操练英语，因为多么太简略说回到你的母语了。
So don't even give yourself the option to be comfortable.
Don't give yourself the option to be lazy and kind of cruise-y.
所以，别给你本身恬静的阿谁选择。不要给你本身怠懈和轻松的选择。
If you find a roo小妹ate who doesn't speak your language, you'll have to keep practising English all day.
As you discuss what you're going to make for dinner or you're thinking 'Who took the dog for a walk? ' or 'Whose turn is it to clean the bathroom? '
如果你的室友其实不会说你的母语，那你成天都要一贯操练英语。
比如说谈判你们晚饭要做甚么，或是斟酌 ?ュ薰贰保嗷蚴恰罢獯温值剿蛏ㄏ词旨淞耍俊闭庑┮晌省?
In this situation, you'll have the ability to continue learning and using English and improving every day. Okay so what if you don't know anyone else who you can live with?
在这类环境下，你每天均可以连续进修，而且使用英语。好的，如果你找不到该和谁一块儿住该怎样办？
Well, that brings me to tips number two and three. Don't limit yourself to only native English speakers.
这就到了我要说的第二个和第三个诀窍。不要把你本身限制在英语母语者身上。
Native English speakers are not the only people that you can learn from.
Other English language learners, who don't speak the same native languages as you, are an incredible resource for you.
你不但能从英语母语者身前进修。
其他的英语进修者，他们和你说的母语其实不不异，对你而言是很是名贵的本钱。
Spending time with or even living with other English-language learners can be a great way to avoid speaking your native language.
And doing so will help you to feel less nervous or stressed about making mistakes, right?
花点时分和他们交游，甚至是和其他的英语进修者一块儿糊口，都是很是好的避免你说母语的办法。
多么做的话可以协助你抵挡犯错感触不那末严峻，让你感触压力没那末大，是吧？
You'll feel more comfortable asking questions or trying out new vocabulary with someone who is also learning just like you.
Someone who is patient and willing to help.
和多么一个和你差不多的人在一块儿，你会对问疑问，或是实验一下新的单词感触不那末拘谨。
这小我颇有耐心，也很甘心容许供给协助。
You'll share new words as you come across them and chat about some of the embarrassing moments that you've had.
But what if you don't know anybody else who's also studying English?
当你碰到新的单词的时辰，你们可以彼此共享，然后谈判你们碰到的为难时刻。
可是如果你不了解也在学英语的人，这该怎样办呢？
How do you find these people? Don't just sit around and wait for new friends to find you, connect with people through social networks.
你该怎样找到这些人呢？万万不要眼巴巴地坐在那儿等着新的朋友来找你，要经由进程交际搜集和我们创建接洽。
Facebook groups, Meetup groups, your local library, or co小妹unity groups are a great start. Most cities around the world have hundreds of online co小妹unities full of people just like you.
脸书群组、Meetup小组，本地的藏书楼，或是社区的小集团都是极好的起头。世界各地的大大都都会有着成百上千的线上集体，内里全都是和你相同的人。
So find groups of other expats or language learners or non-native English speakers who are living in that city. Connect with those people.
所以，去找糊口在阿谁都会中其他的移居国外的人或是说话进修者，亦或是英语非母语者的集体。和那些人创建接洽。
They're going to really understand the challenges and frustrations that you're having because they've probably had the same experience as you, right? So they can be a really invaluable support, especially when you're first starting out.
他们可以或许真的了解你经历的应战和沮丧，因为他们可以和你具有不异的经历，对吧？所以在你刚起步的时辰，他们真的可以或许变成你很是名贵的支撑。
And there are so many websites like Craigslist, Gumtree and others where you can find homes with spare rooms and move in with housemates instantly. Even AirBnB is a great place to start and connect with someone local.
还有不少网站，比如说Craigslist, Gumtree 等等，你能在上面找到有空屋租借的家庭，然后可以立马搬进入。甚至爱彼迎都是一个超棒的和本地人创建接洽的场所。
Tip number four. Don't watch the football game at home.
第四个小诀窍。不要在家里看球赛。
Whether you like football or not, push yourself out of your comfort zone and head to the local bar to catch the game.
Even if it's not something you normally do at home, heading out to take part in local social events is a great way to meet people, to learn a little bit more about the culture and probably learn some local slang too.
不管你喜不喜爱足球，把你本身推出恬静区，去本地的酒吧看竞赛吧。
即便你不怎样常常在家里看球赛，出门去参加本地的交际狡计是碰见不合的人、进修本地文明，和进修一些本地习语的很棒的办法。
Come on! What a joke!
加油啊！开甚么玩笑！
And if a football game really doesn't suit your style, then check out any other sporting event or a local trivia night or happy hour specials or a comedy show—you get the picture.
This can sometimes be daunting or scary to put yourself in a situation where you may not know anybody or you might be forced to chat with the locals.
如果足球竞赛真的不合你的食欲的话，那就看看其他的体育狡计，或是本地组织的一些小狡计，欢喜韶光出格狡计或是笑剧秀均可以——懂了吧。
让本身置身于你谁都不了解，或是被逼去和本地人谈天的情境傍边，有时可以会使人望而生畏，心生惧怕。
So local people tend to be more relaxed and willing to chat in these situations.
Often, they'll happily explain the rules of the game and tell you why the other teams are no good.
而本地人在这些环境之下一般城市加倍放松，也更情愿和人闲谈。
他们一般城市很甘心容许诠释游戏的规则，奉告你为甚么其他的队不怎样样。
But if you don't feel comfortable joining a conversation or cheering from the sidelines.
Tip number five. Don't put pressure on yourself to start speaking i小妹ediately especially if you're new to a place or if speaking in public makes you feel stressed or anxious.
可是如果你抵挡参加对话，或是在一旁喝彩感触不太适应的话，那就试一下第五个小诀窍吧。
不要给你本身施加太多的压力，强逼本身当即起头遣词，特别是如果你刚来一个新的场所，或是在群众场所讲话让你感触亚历山大， 或是很是焦虑的话。
It's okay to just observe, watch what other people are doing, watch their body language, listen in on conversations, try to understand what's going on.
Being there and experiencing it will help you to understand it.
在一旁静静傍观是可以的，看其别人在做甚么，调查他们的身体说话，谛听他们的对话，试着去了解发生了甚么。
置身现场、切身领会可以或许协助你了解。
Watch what the locals do so that you learn more about the way that they interact and the things that they talk about in social situations.
Don't let your fear of making mistakes or not knowing what to say keep you at home.
调查本地人做了甚么，多么你就可以进修他们彼此交流的办法，和他们在交际傍边谈判的论题。
不要因为惧怕犯错，或是不晓得该说甚么把本身困在了家中。
Allow yourself to be surrounded by English, that way you're learning, not hiding.
Don't allow yourself to hide in your new home because you'll tell yourself that you don't have the confidence.
让你本身被英语所围住，多么你才干真实的进修，而不是躲避。
不要让本身躲在你的新家里，因为你会奉告本身你没有满足的自傲。
But before you know it, you'll start feeling more comfortable about joining those conversations.
Tip number six.
可是在晓得早年，你会对参加对话感触更有自傲。
小诀窍六。
Don't expect to learn only in informal situations.
Living with someone who doesn't speak your native language, finding groups of other English learners, meeting people at the pub, they're all great ways to improve informally.
不要等候只在非正式的场所中进修。
和不说你的母语的人一块儿糊口，寻找其他的英语进修者集体，和在酒吧碰见新朋友当然长短正式的提升英语的办法。
But it's super to have a mix of formal and informal learning opportunities.
Try to find a local tutor who can answer all of your questions that you just need to ask, right?
可是正式和非正式进修机缘的连系才干事半功倍呢。
试着去寻找本地的教员，他们可以或许答复你一切的疑问，你只必要去问就好了。
Keep track of all the things that confuse you.
Actually, that's my next tip, so keep watching but go to your tutor with a list of questions.
记实令你置疑的悉数。
真实这就是我下一个小诀窍，要一贯留意调查，要带着成堆疑问去找你的教员。
Ask them how to pronounce difficult words or about a strange expression you heard, how to say that phrase that you really needed at the coffee shop yesterday or what you heard your neighbour yelling down the street.
Even if you only meet your tutor for a month or two when you first arrive, it would be a great investment—both in time and in money.
就教他们一些坚苦的单词该若何发音，或是你听到的一个很独特的表达，若何说你昨日在咖啡馆中必要用到的那些表达办法，再或是你听到的邻人在街上大喊大喊的那些表达。
即便你从刚来到如今只见了教员一两个月，这都是一笔很值的出资——不管是时分仍是金钱。
As long as you make the most of it. Now what was I saying earlier?
只需你充分操作。我早年说了甚么来着？
I think I had something that I wanted to tell you so it was quite important. If only I'd written it down.
我记住我有件事端想要奉告你们来着，很是首要。假定我记下来了就行了。
Tip number seven. Don't forget to keep track of your questions.
小诀窍七。不要健忘掉实你的疑问。
Whether you carry around a small notebook to write down tricky words that you come across or maybe you take notes on your phone, whatever.
But come up with a simple and easy system to remember the language questions that you think of at any time of day.
不管是随身带着一本小笔记本记下你碰到的那些冗杂的单词，仍是在手机上做笔记，均可以。
可是要尽可以简练易懂，记实你每天任啥时分候想到的说话疑问。
When you come across a word that you don't know or a phrase that you're unsure how to use correctly or just a general gra小妹ar question.
If you don't make a note of it, the chances are that when you finally have the opportunity to ask someone like your tutor, you'll have a hard time remembering what those questions were.
当你碰到一个不理解的单词，或是不必定若何精确使用的短语，或是一个比较微观的语法疑问。
如果你不想做笔记的话，极可以当你最终有机缘就教别人，比如说你的教员的时辰，你就要耗操心思地去回想那些疑问究竟是甚么。
And then you'll miss the opportunity. Making mistakes or recognising times when you feel confused are the best learning opportunities, so take advantage of them, write those things down.
然后你就错失了阿谁机缘。犯错或是意想到你很置疑是极好的进修机缘，所以必定要好好操作，把那些疑问都写下来。
Tip number eight. Don't get a job that requires you to speak in your own language.
第8个小技能。不要找必要你讲母语的作业。
Learning a language takes a lot of hard work and dedication. Sometimes it can get really frustrating and of course, when we're tired, it's really tempting to take the easy route, right?
进修一门必要开支艰苦的极力和意志力。有时辰可以会很是使人沮丧，当然了，当咱们怠倦之时，走捷径布满引诱，是吧？
We all do that. But while it can be easy to give up or get lazy in the comfort of your own home, it's not like that in the workplace, is it?
咱们城市这么做的。可是尽管在家里的恬静区傍边很简略就抛却，或是懒虫上身，可是在作业场所却不太简略多么，对吧？
In the workplace, you must keep working on your English. So get a job where you have to work in English.
在作业场所，你必需一贯极力进修英语。所以必定要找一份在作业场所必要说英语的作业。
This will be a challenge. It's going to be a huge challenge for you.
这会变成一个应战。那对你而言将会是一个超大的应战。
At work, there's no giving up or slacking off.
You must use your English, you must find ways to improve and co小妹unicate clearly so that you have a better experience with your colleagues and with your customers, right?
在作业中，你不克不及抛却，也不克不?尚浮?
你必需使用英语，你必需找到提升英语，和别人交流的办法，多么你才干和你的火伴和客户具有非常好的领会，对吗？
Now you may be thinking 'But E小妹a, my English isn't good enough to get a job. No one will hire me if I don't speak fluent English. '
可是你可以会想“可是爱玛啊，我的英语根柢缺乏以撑持我找到一份作业。如果我英语讲得不足流通，没人会雇佣我的。”
Well, that brings me to number nine. Don't make excuses for yourself.
好的，那就让咱们看一下第九点吧。不要给本身找借口。
If you try to find a reason why you can't do something or it's too difficult or even impossible, you will always find an excuse. It's easy to find reasons why you can't do something, why you shouldn't do it.
如果你想要给本身无法做某件事端，这件事端太坚苦，或是根柢不成能找来由的话，你总会找到各类借口的。给为甚么你不克不及做某件事端，为甚么你不该该做找借口的话，是很是简略的。
And it's easy to tell yourself that you're not good enough. It's safer right?
奉告你本身你不足好，也是很是简略的。多么更平安，对吗？
You reduce the risks of making mistakes. Well, I say, stop making excuses and just go for it!
多么你便可以丢失出差错的损害。我说的是，不要再找借口啦，干休一搏吧！
The best and most exciting things happen on the other side of fear.
So every time you hear yourself making an excuse, then block that thought and do the opposite.
在惧怕的另外一面，会发生最佳最让人激动的事端。
所以每次你听到本身在找借口的时辰，把它扼杀在摇篮里，然后去做相反的事端。
All of these tips may sound like great ideas but the decision to make these changes comes from you.
It doesn't matter how great your teachers are or how long you studied English for.
这些小技能可以听起来都是很棒的主张，可是去改变的故意仍是来历于你本身。
你的教员有多么优良，或是你学了多久英语都不首要。
Or if you live in an English-speaking country or not.
So often we just sit back and watch these opportunities pass us by.
或你是不是是糊口在讲英语的国度。咱们很简略就置身事外，看着这些机缘悄然溜走。
There are so many opportunities around us and those people who take them will benefit the most. So let's recap from the top.
咱们身旁存在着不少机缘，而那些捉住机缘的人材会获益匪浅。让咱们从头总结一下吧。
If you're living in an English-speaking country, don't live with someone who speaks your native language.
Don't seek out only native English speakers.
如果你糊口在讲英语的国度，不要和说你的母语的人糊口在一块儿。不要只去寻找英语母语者。
Don't wait for new friends to find you. Don't watch a football game at home.
不要等待新的朋友来找你。不要在家里看球赛。
Don't put pressure on yourself to start speaking i小妹ediately.
Don't expect to learn only in informal situations.
不要给你本身登时就启齿遣词的压力。
不要只是等候在非正式的情境中进修。
Don't forget to keep track of your questions in some way. Don't get a job where you have to speak your own language.
不要健忘以某种办法记实你的疑问。不要找你必要讲母语的作业。
And don't make excuses for yourself. Take action.
不要给本身找借口。起头行动吧。
So those are my tips. Do you have any of your own tips to add?
那些就是我的小诀窍。你本身还有其他的小诀窍想要抵偿吗？
I'd love to hear about your experiences living in an English-speaking country.
