Welcome to the Effortless English Show with the world's number one English teacher, A.J. Hogue.

Where A.J.'s more than 40 million students worldwide finally learn English once and for all

Here's A.J. with a quick piece to help you learn to speak fluent English effortlessly.

Hi, I'm A.J. Hoag, the director of Effortless English.

Welcome.

In this video, let's talk about a common problem.

The boredom of textbooks. Text textbooks are boring.

If there's nothing else wrong with them,

we all at least can agree that they are boring.

Now unfortunately the methods used in textbooks as you know

it's one of our rules by the way the methods used in textbooks simply are not

effective long vocabets in textbooks simply are not effective. Long vocabulary list that you try to memorize.

It doesn't work. You forget most of that stuff and you don't know how to use it in real English.

Boring, fake, dial-off. how to use it in real English.

Boring, fake dialogues and conversations,

memorizing all these rules about grammar.

We know all this stuff doesn't work.

But in addition to not working, textbooks are also quite boring.

Right? It's just, it's no fun to go through textbooks and drills and exercises and workbooks. It's a horrible way to learn English. No fun at all.

So one of the simplest, easiest, and most enjoyable methods for improving your English,

your speaking and especially your vocabulary, is simply to use audio books. This is something I discuss all the time, but I like to repeat it a lot because it's so important and so simple and so easy and so cheap.
