Hi guys this is Eliot form etjEnglish.com helping you to become a fluent English speaker.Today's video is about learning English on you own.
大家好我是 Eliot 来自 ETJ 英语，帮大家变成英语流利者。今天的视频是关于“英语的自学”。
I had somebody asked me on the Facebook wether it's possible to learn English on your own. And I replied with simple answer 'yes,yes it is'. And now I decided to create a video to explain to all of you,how you can learn English on your own,and how different the results will be.
在 Facebook 上有人曾经问我，是否可以靠自己自学英语。我的回答很简单：是的，可以。
现在我打算做一个视频给大家解释一下，怎样自学英语，以及结果有怎样的不同。
If the reason why you learning English on your own is because you don't like language classes,then I completely understand,I hate language classes.I get things better when I learn on my own.which is why I'm learning Spanish on my own.I just learn Spanish with online tutor with my own self-study.And this is how I recommend that you learn English on your own too.
如果你想自学英语的原因，是因为你不喜欢去上课， 我完全理解。我讨厌上课。我自学的时候会吸收更多。这就是为什么我正在自学西班牙语。我用两种方式学西班牙语：通过在线外教以及自我学习。这也是为什么我建议你自学英语。
A lot of time you can be more confident if you practice on you own.The internet can be your teacher.
许多时候，你自己练习的时候会更自信。互联网可以做你的老师。
However when you're learning English on you own,there will be a few things,which can hold you back,a few thing which might slow you down,slightly.But if you watch this video,it should help.
然而当你自学英语的时候，会有一些东西拖你后腿，可能会把你拖慢一点。但如果你看这条视频，会有帮助。
When you're learning English on your own,there's very heavy weight on your shoulder. What I mean by this is that you are in control of your success. It's up to you on how much work you put in,and what your goals are,and how you achieve them.
当年自学英语时，肩上压力很大。 我的意思是成功与否，完全掌控与你，所有事情都由你自己决定：投入多少努力、设定什么目标，以及怎样达成他们。
So you need to have your priority straight. Here's a little checklist of the things you need,if you want to learn English on your own.
所以你需要自己的优先事项。如果你想自学，这里有一个“你需要做的事情”的选项列表：
No.1 you need a goal.You need to have a plan of how good you want to be.And you need to think about that everyday.
第一， 你需要一个目标。你得计划一下，你想达到什么程度。而且你需要每天都想着这个目标。
No.2 you need motivation.You need motivation to achieve that goal.
第二，你需要有主动性。你需要有足够的自主性去达成目标。
No.3 you need techniques which aren't boring. If you get bored easily,and learning English alone is going to be hard.So you need find ways to learn which will keep you entertained.
第三，你需要一些不让自己感到枯燥无聊的技巧。如果你很容易就感到枯燥无聊，那独自学英语就变得非常难。所以你需要寻找一些方法，来让自己保持在娱乐状态。
No.4 you need someone to practice with. You can't learn English on you own without having someone to practice with.Because if you want to become fluent，you can't become fluent by just talking to yourself in the mirror,or recording your voice,you need to practice speaking with someone.which is what I'm here for, this is my job,I'm here to practice with you in my lessons.
第四，你需要有人跟你实践。如果没人跟你实践练习，自学英语是不行的。因为如果你想达到流利程度——你无法通过对着镜子说话达到流利，或者仅仅是录自己的音。你需要有人练习说话。这既是我在这儿的目的，这是我的工作——在我的课程上，跟你练习。
So you need all of these things that I just mentioned. If you want to be successful you will need this.If you are going to get pronunciation correctly if you are going to get all the correct grammar and vocabulary you need to do make sure you have all of those boxes ticket. If you don't, then I suggest you learn English in the class.
以上我刚提到的这些，你都需要——如果你想成功的话。如果你想发音准确、语法正确、获得单词量，你得保证这些选项都被打勾了。如果你没有，我建议你还是去学校上课。
It's fine to learn all the phrases the tenses and the vocabulary on your own,by reading,watching videos and social media, but you do need someone to practice with.That's the point when you want to reach the next level.And to reach the next level, you have to practice speaking with someone.Practice is the most important part of learning English.And if you don't have someone to practice with, then that's no point in your learning english until really if you want to be a fluent English speaker.
通过阅读、看视频或社交媒体是可以获得短语单词量时态，但你需要有人跟你去实践这些。这是关键。如果你想抵达下一个等级，你必得跟人练习实践说话。实践是英语学习中最重要的。（后面还有一句没太听清，猜着听写了下来）。
So,yes, you can learn English on your own. If this is something you prefer to do then do it.But don't just stay in your comfort zone.I actually read something recently which said that 90% of success is achieved when you leave your comfort-zone.If you are learning English alone,you have to leave your comfort-zone.I'm about to tell you a tip.
因此，你可以自学英语。如果你更想这么做，那就做吧。但是别待在“舒适区”。实际上我最近读过一些文章，讲到90%的成功是你离开舒适区之后达成的。如果你正在独自学英语，你必须离开舒适区，我接下来告诉你一个小技巧。
So,once a week,I want you to do something that make you feel uncomfortable,something which you don't normally do.So for some people who are learning English alone,it might be speaking to someone in English,because this makes a lot of people nervous. But if you do this at least once a week,you'll be improving massively.So once a week,do something that makes you feel uncomfortable and put you out of your comfort-zone.Because you will learn the most when you leave your comfot-zone.
每一周，我希望你做一件“让自己不舒服”的事情，一些你平常不做的事。比如对于有些自学者来说，“跟人用英语聊天”可能就是这件事儿。因为它让很多人觉得紧张。但如果你每周至少做一次，你会极大进步。每周一次，做一些你觉得“不舒服”的是，把自己推出“舒适区”。因为当你离开舒适区，你会学到最多。
It's very easy to get too comfortable when you are learning English on your own.You can easily get distracted by Facebook,your phone,your friends,but when you are learning on you own,you need to treat it like a lesson.So make sure you've set it as thirty minutes ,learning,no distraction,no Facebook,no phones,nothing just English.
自学英语的时候很容易进入舒适区，你很容易就被 Facebook、手机、你朋友干扰。但当你自学的时候，把它当成在课堂。保证你设定三十分钟来学习，没有干扰，没有 facebook ，没有手机，什么都没有，除了英语。
