Hey guys what's up Stefanie the English coach here from englishfulltime.com
and in this video we are going to talk about how to think in English now when I
was in college and I was studying Spanish and I did you know all of my
classes in Spanish and I had professors that were native Spanish speakers one of
my professors would always say you just need to think in Spanish and that would
actually piss me off because I was like I would do it if I
knew how or if it was would come natural to me but the thing is it didn't it's
like I would have to force myself to think in Spanish and sometimes I would
have to translate in my head you know because I didn't have as much experience
speaking the language and she would just make me and the whole class feel really
bad because she would just say you just have to force yourself to think in
Spanish and I was like that's not what I want I want to be able to think in
Spanish the way that I think in English I don't want to have to plan what I'm
going to say before I say it I want to just be able to open my mouth and speak
Spanish right that's what I wanted well I learned from experience that that only
comes after you've been exposed to enough of the language for a long time
okay so I didn't start thinking in Spanish
and when you think in the language in a foreign language that's basically when
you're like fluent in that language I don't mean when you force yourself to
think in a language I mean when you can think in a language as naturally as you
think in your native language and you don't lack expressions you don't lack
vocabulary you can just like I can just sit here and think in Spanish if I want
I can just talk in Spanish if I want I'm fluent in Spanish right that doesn't
come right away it comes with time and you can't force yourself to think in a
language and think that that is enough that that is what will get you fluent in
the language what you need is enough exposure to the language so you want to
know how to think in English well you're going to achieve that by speaking in
English regularly with other people by surrounding yourself with English by
immersing yourself in English and that is how you're going to be able to think
in English it'll come with time and it comes
gradually so you're not going to realize it at first because you're learning
you're growing you're learning new vocabulary but then you realize it when
you look back and go wow look how far I've come now I think in English like I
don't I didn't even realize that this happened when did this happen because
there isn't like a moment where you cross over okay so obviously we can all
sit there and think of vocabulary in a foreign language and force ourselves to
do that but if you want to be able to think in English naturally you need to
be surrounded with a lot of English over a long period of time okay it comes it
comes with time and the cool thing is once you do this you may even start
dreaming in English a lot of people get so excited when they have their first
dream in a foreign language I know I did when I first started dreaming in Spanish
it was awesome because that's when you know you're really starting to think in
a foreign language so anyhow let me know what you guys think about this in the
comments I'm sorry I couldn't give you you know a step-by-step method of this
is how you think in English in a foreign language it just doesn't work like that
if you're not thinking in English if you still have to translate in your head it
is because you're not surrounding yourself with enough English or you
haven't been studying it for enough time okay it's your brain will naturally
start thinking in the language that it is surrounded with that is just how it's
programmed that's just how it works you won't even have to think about thinking
in the language you just will because our natural urges are to communicate and
you will have that urge to communicate in whatever language you communicate in
frequently okay so let me know what you guys think about this in the comments
