How I Learned to Speak English: Tips and Tricks for Clear Communication 

Mannn "don't be so attached to who you are right now that you don't give the future version of you a chance" you're golden man

When I was a kid, my father would always tell me that I should read out loud, but I couldn't understand why. Now, it's making sense to me.

I used the same method as you when I practiced presentations in English during my early days: watching Disney channel (mostly), combined with imitating all the dialogues, sometimes acting in front of the mirror, or imagined being interviewed by someone on a certain subject. Imitation is the first step in learning anything, really. Another aspect that I think worth mentioning is that by leaving the TV/ radio on and not actively listening to it (while doing chores, for example), your subconscious still picks up a fair amount of how natives deliver their spoken language. This is inactive learning - just like how a child must be able to hear in order to learn how to speak in the first place. One other thing that I did was learning rap songs. Yes, rap. Mostly Eminem, because I found his articulation the clearest. Once I've had enough habit of mouth movement from rapping, my accent came out more naturally. Rapping as cardio for your mouth muscles works wonder.

Just want to say thank you for being you & sharing your enthusiasm for communication!

Hi , Mr Vinh Giang I have been I putting all your English video to practice and I love everyone one of your content and Now I have gotten an admission in Europe because the videos form you help me succeed in my entrance exam and my interviews you really help me and just want to say Thanks .

This is what my Father keeps telling me, but I never understood what he meant by moving your mouth more. This is the perfect time to learn about this because recently I had joined a specific youth leadership team and I always feared that people could not fully understand what I was saying because I am to quiet or smudging my words together. Great stuff man! Very thankful to have found your channel 🙏

I really appreciate your generosity with your energy and communication tips, Vinh!

Yeah! It's true. I am an English pronunciation teacher. When I coached my students in pronunciation, I coached them first to exaggerate our set of mouth movements. Then they can do well after 1.5 - 2 months.

Vinh, I watched this multiple times already. I'm on Day 3 now, reading tech article outloud and record it. It took me aroun 7-15 minutes to read the whole article slowly and with exageration. Pray for me to be consistent to do this for 3 months onwards. Thankyou Vinh :D

You did inspire a lot of people who are trying to learn the second language and really want to gain a huge confidence to stand in front of the crowd having a presentation. Really appreciate my man too much.

"Don't be so attached to who you currently are, give your future version a chance" really moved me (I just watched your reel on Facebook yesterday by chance), so motivational that I believe someday I can speak English freely and smoothly as you do. By the way, your Vietnamese accent sounds quite lovely, I can tell as a Vietnamese person. You have one more follower!

Man you are of the few people that give helpful content and not just spitting out words. Thank you!

Have been bingeing so many Vinh videos this past week. Got a video to record tomorrow and it’s all helping with my confidence as have been practicing already.

Em cảm ơn anh Vinh Giang vì video truyền cảm hứng này ạ. Em vừa qua đến Mỹ du học và cũng nhận thấy bản thân rất yếu về giao tiếp. Trong video này anh nói tiếng Việt và hướng dẫn cách để cải thiện khả năng nói tiếng anh, em cảm ơn anh rất nhiều về video này.

Vin! You really inspired me on how to learn my fourth language in English! Thank you for your sharing and it is very helpful!

Love your contents anh Vinh ! I've learned a bunch about communication through watching your shorts on RU-vid

English is my second language. Speaking English has been really difficult for me, especially when it comes to conveying my ideas to others in a clear and pronounced manner. Your advice has proven to be incredibly helpful and practical. I'll attempt to imitate a native speaker. Likewise, I'll read passages from the novels I like the most. Thanks for your sharing your methods. Keep up the good work!

You're the only top life coach, I love to watch his videos. Edit: Feedback I did this exercise, my tongue feels light and kinda smaller. Also my mouth is lighter, this can be a great tool for my singing too. I recommend to keep a water with you.

We are so much creatures of learned habits, after a while we believe that our way of communication is who we are, even if we don't like it, but like all habits it can be changed, if we really take an interest and learn the necessary skills until it becomes a new habit. Thanks for pointing us the in right direction Vinh 🙂

You have so much passion for communication it’s astounding

As an American I also think I could use some improvement to my articulation. This seems like a fun exercise. Thanks for another great video as usual!

I watched your channel for the first time and was very impressed by this video 😊

Hey Vin thank you so much for sharing this! I'm Colombian, English is my second language and I will be using this exercise to improve my communication skills.

Vinh, after i found you on youtube i have learned a lot of things from you initialy i was watching your videos to improve my english skills but now i am watching you to improve my communication skills more than english practice

Tuyệt vời quá anh Vinh! Thanks for sharing these tips, and your Vietnamese is still really great.

Hi Vinh. At work, I have a coworker who approached me concerned about her accent. I've sent her to this video and made a deal with her to meet every day to read for articulation. She is excited to try! I'll keep you updated!

Great advice. I’m glad I stumbled across your RU-vid Shorts!

Hey Vinh this is absolutely invaluable. I am also learning Chinese and implementing what you said for 5 mins a day. Chinese is a bit more complex for the pronounciation so might take me longer. Thanks for sharing this!

I'm Vietnamese, so when I watched your video it inspired me to learn English more than before, thank you for making this video. Your efforts everyone can see. Keep the form to get more success.

You are such an inspiration. I love your whole life story from 25 years to present. 🙌🏻

You are awesome , I experienced so many bootcamps but I never saw anybody communication like you❤❤

You are the best, real, practical teacher and all the points you told i am gonna follow and improve.

I was born in Germany and spent the first 20 years of my life there. However, since my parents are turkish, I grew up speaking Turkish and learned German in kindergarten and school. Currently, I reside in Turkey, and I find myself struggling with effective communication in all three languages. While I learned english through interactions with strangers in video games and consuming english content in general, I consider myself lacking proficiency in all of these languages. Now I'm faced with the dilemma of determining which language to prioritize. Although the decision ultimately depends on my personal goals, I must confess that I currently lack a clear direction or objective. And yes, I used Chat GPT's help to write this text, which just proves my point once again. :')

your content is gold as usual Vinh ❤

You are in the zone! great job!!!

Thank you for your time and effort to make this videos, it really easy to understand and follow!

Your content is pure gold 💛

Excelent video, thanks Vinh, it is very helpful, you really have a gift of communication!!

Vin, this is the most important video I have watched from you. I wanted the exact answer for very long from you. Articulation, it is. I understood.

Loved hearing about all the languages you spoke growing up! 🤩

english is also my third language. so this method of articulation sounds amazing! up until now i just used to listen to songs in english and work on my mouth movements to sound right and it has helped a lot. currently my accent sounds close to either the aussie or british accent though i am still working on understanding and speaking it.

Absolutely love your work sir. Thank you for sharing your journey to master the communication skill. It's really touching me. I'll do that tip from now on. 5min over-articulating every night, 👍

Yo tbh I love your voice and your advice on how to improve communication skills. Thank you so much for your content.

just want to say keep going and continue to make some great content about communication, you have cemented my will to become a better speaker rất cám ơn và cố lên vinh nhé

Articulation Mouth movement of english words while reading is great to know. This concept is i was missing to practice even though i heard somewhere elss this one. Only it takes 5 minutes to read with conscious effort needed as much as well. Thanks for sharing vinh

Wow, I was surprised when you said you are Teochew nang and also keeping your native language until now and Vietnamese as well. As you know Chinese people who are living in Vietnam, especially in Saigon, have not kept their own native language, they have changed to the Vietnamese language as their first language in recent years. I'm Hokkien nang, and English is my fourth language after Cantonese and Vietnamese. Love to watch your channel and the content you made, that's inspiring me!

Thank you for your videos! Surely inspiring

You're Teochew too!! Love it!!!

Thank you, this is amazing video, that would help me a lot for me to become a person who I want to become in the future. Thank you Vinh Giang. Thank you so much.

Thank you, Vinh for your tips. I am glad that I found your videos and I am practising now. I am not confident with my English sound because I am Vietnamese, too and working in teaching area in Australia.

I love your videos! I grew up in China and came to the States at 20s. Inevitably I speak English with an accent. But that never stopped me from graduating with a master degree and became a Special Edu teacher. One day, my student told me that “ You are my favorite teacher with accent!” I laughed and just told him “ Thank you!”😂 Never be discouraged by your accent 😊

Thank you. Yes, this video has truly inspired me.

Bro your dropping BOMBS!, I start reading with exaggerating mouth movements and I can really tell the difference between English and my Filipino mouth Movements, they are like miles away difference. I will keep doing this Until I can Articulate more in English.

Thank u, you have inspired me to try harder on improving my articulation

Love this, Vinh. I'm my own worst enemy when it come to the accent. I'm off to read out loud and annoying my husband. Thank you so much. ❤

Very powerful tips to boost English communication confidently. Love from India 🇮🇳

Really inspired me, thank you Sir

Anh Vinh cảm ơn anh nhiều vì video vs tips đơn giản, dễ thực hiện và hơn nữa tự hào một người con đất Việt thành công như vậy ❤ You're great, I hope you all the best now and in the future

U sound natural and great... I'm into languages myself. thanks for your sharing. I just love listening to people talking in different languages.

the editor takes this video from 9/10 to 10/10. very nice.

You are very inspiring Vinh. English also my 3rd language. I wish I can learn to articulate and speak better English. Hopefully in the near future, I can join your masterclass.

I love the way you sound!

Thanks Vinh.

thanks a lot for this! I’ll give it a shot

Thank you for your inspired words. This advice I've never heard before. Now I know that my Articulation is the barrier to my better life. I'm Vietnamese and living in Japan right now. I was thinking all the time that I don't have enough self skills of speaking Japanese. I barely speak Japanese. And if I speaking, I speak Japanese with my Vietnamese accent. Now I know where to improve my articulation. Thank you so much.

Vinh, you are really inspirational 💟

Thank you so much for the topics you choose .Lot to learn from you .Thanks from Sri Lanka .🙏🙏🙏

Your accent is smooth and sound comfortable, I like it 👍🏻
