Hi. Today is the last rule! Remember, I promised you 7 Rules. Today is number 7

Today is the last Rule, and it is the easiest: Most English CDs use “listen and repeat”. The speaker says something in English, and you repeat exactly what they said. This method is a failure.

Thanks very much! I am studying English according to your method. I will introduce your lessons to my friends! –Fred Zhao

Emi, a Japanese woman, had a problem. Her speaking was SLOW. She could not answer questions quickly. Emi listened to many English tapes and CDs. She listened. She repeated what the speaker said. Emi emailed me. I recommended “Listen & Answer” lessons. I told her not to use “listen and repeat”.

I told her to use “Listen & Answer” Mini-Stories.

I told her that “listen and repeat” is not enough– when you repeat, you only copy the speaker. But when you hear a question and you ANSWER it– you must think in English.

After using listen & ANSWER lessons for just 4 months, her speaking was fast, easy, and automatic.

Emi was excited. She wrote: “The lessons are FANTASTIC! I love them. My speaking is so much faster now. I understand quickly and I can now speak English without thinking. I can’t believe it!”


RULE 7: Listen and Answer, not Listen and Repeat

Use Listen & Answer Mini-Story Lessons
Use Listen & Answer Mini-Story Lessons

In each Mini-Story Lesson, a speaker tells a short simple story. He also asks a lot of easy questions. Every time you hear a question, you pause and answer it. You learn to answer questions quickly– without thinking. Your English becomes automatic.
How can you use Listen & Answer Stories? Easy! Find a native speaker tutor. Ask him to use this method: Ask him to tell a story… and to constantly ask you easy questions about it. This will teach you to think quickly in English!

You can also find Listen & Answer lessons. They will teach you to think quickly in English.

Your technique is really mind blowing and working for me nicely. Fantastic! Once more thanks a lot! –Sameer Ansari

Thanks for allowing me to teach you.

Have a great day!
