smileEnglishstories - SMILE English stories with Rachel (me!)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I want to… understand English, listen to English I can understand, learn English vocabulary, learn English without grammar, have a conversation in English… improve my English!”

Is that you?

Perfect!  I think you are in the right place, because I want to help you to learn English, to acquire English.  I want you to listen to English spoken naturally, and to understand English spoken naturally… to listen to English spoken in lots of different contexts!  I want you to enjoy English!

I want you to practice listening to English, but to listen to interesting English.  

English conversation is often an exchange of stories in English.  To have a conversation in English with someone when you travel in English, you need to master “English small talk”.  For example, you might need to :
- talk about yourself in English
- talk about family in English
- talk about food in English
- talk about weather in English
- talk about holidays in English
- talk about interests in English
- talk about sport in English

So, I am building my smileEnglishstories YouTube channel, to give you one opportunity to listen to English spoken naturally in lots of different contexts.  After all, in England we say, “Variety is the spice of life!”

And I tell you stories in English, because if you listen to interesting stories to learn English, you will be more motivated to listen to English and you will naturally improve your listening comprehension.

I try to use simple English when I make my smileEnglishstories YouTube videos.  Simple, but rich in content!  That means accessible English for beginners (good beginners), but still interesting English for elementary level and interesting English for intermediate levels.

In the comments section, say what you enjoyed, ask questions or tell me what sort of videos you would like to see!  Then I can make videos you will want to watch!
