to memorize. Just relax and listen. If necessary, you can read as well, as I said if you need to. But relax, you’re not trying to memorize anything. Just let it come in. Let the English come into your ears and into your eyes. Don’t think about it. Don’t analyze it. Do not think about grammar. The mini-stories will help you learn grammar subconsciously, so don’t interrupt that process by trying to analyze it. Don’t think about grammar rules. You want to learn like a native speaker and that means you’re going to learn the patterns of English in these mini-stories. You might not be able to explain them, just like native speakers cannot explain grammar rules. But that’s okay, you want to be able to use them correctly. That’s the important part. So again, you want to relax. Do not study. Do not think about grammar rules. Do not try to translate. Just relax and listen.

      Now another important point. You want to move your body while you’re listening to the lessons. This will keep your energy high. So, what do I mean by that? Well, a really easy way to do this is just to walk. You’ve got an iPod, you’ve got your earphones in, listen to the lessons while you go for a walk. You can do two things at one time. You exercise, you improve your body and you listen to English lessons and improve your mind at the same time.

      If you’re sitting in a train or on a bus then maybe you just stretch your body a little bit. If you’re in your car, you can move a little bit. You can move around in your seat. If you’re at your house you can go crazy, you can jump around. You can exercise very strongly. You can go to the gym. Do something with your body while you’re listening to the lessons.

      It will keep your energy high. It will keep you feeling better. You will actually learn faster by doing that.

      And finally, a very, very important point. You need to use our deep learning method. That means you listen to each lesson set for one week or more. So for example, this first unit has got three parts. There is a story or a main talk. Yes, some lessons have a main talk or an article instead of a story. There is a vocabulary section. And there is a mini-story. Well those three, you want to listen to those three every day for seven days. You want that repetition.

      Repetition is very important. You want it to go deeply into your brain. Just one time is not enough. Even if it is very easy for you, if you listen you understand everything, it’s simple, still follow the deep learning method. Still listen to the whole set for one week or more. On the other hand, if it seems very difficult, listen longer. Two weeks is okay.

      Doesn’t matter, the point is you want it to go very deeply into your brain which means you want it to be almost easy. It’s going to just go into your brain and eventually just come out without you thinking and that requires deep learning. It requires a lot of repetition.

      So that’s kind of your basic plan for using these lessons. Again, first you’re going to get into a peak emotional state. You’re going to get excited. You’re going to jump around. You’re going to listen to music. You’re going to feel great. Then you’re going to listen to the story or the main talk one or two times. Then you’re going to listen to the vocabulary, one or two times. Then you’re going to listen to the mini-story, one, two, three, four, five times… every day. And remember, relax, feel good and enjoy the lessons while you listen.

      Okay, now you know what to do to learn English faster and to speak English confidently. Next is your first lesson. Go grab it. See you there.

      Unit 1

      A Dog and a Lion

      Hello, my superstar English student. This is Alex. Welcome to our first story “A Dog and a Lion”. But first you’re going to focus on your physiology, on your body. You’re going to focus on mastering your body, using your body to change your emotions. Using your body to change the energy that you feel and therefore using your body to learn English much, much faster. Are you ready? Let’s begin.

      Once upon a time there was a dog who went for a walk in a forest in Africa. And a lion saw the dog. And the lion thought: “That dog will make a good dinner.” But the dog was a mind-reader. He read the lion’s mind.

      And the dog thought, “How can a dog escape from a lion? It’s very difficult. They are very big, very strong, and very fast.” But that dog was a very smart dog.

      So what do you think he did? He managed to find some bones. And he sat in front of the bones with his back towards the lion, totally unafraid. And as the lion was about to pounce, the dog licked his lips and said: “Mm, what a delicious meal! These local lions are very, very, very tasty! I wonder when I can get my next lion to eat.”

      And the lion heard that and he said, “Oh, my goodness! That must be a really vicious dog. He’s eaten another lion and I am not going to be his dinner.”

      And so the lion turned around and ran away.

      But there was a monkey there. And that monkey saw that conversation. And he said, “I am not going that dog to get away with tricking this lion”. And he ran to that lion and said, “You’ve been tricked. You are a fool. This dog can’t eat lions. He has just set it to scare you away!”

      And so the lion got very upset and he got wild. The lion was going to eat that dog. And the monkey said: “I can’t wait to come with you to watch.”

      So the monkey jumped on the lion’s back and the lion went straight towards the dog.

      And the dog saw them coming. So he sat in front of the bones again with his back towards that lion and the monkey on his back. And as they came close, the dog licked his lips again and said: “Where is that damn monkey? He promised to bring me another lion.”

      This is the end of our lesson for “A Dog and a Lion”. Alright, and remember, of course, keep your psychology strong. I hope you’re smiling right now. I hope those shoulders are back. Chin up. Lots of energy. Don’t forget that every single lesson you do, you must be smiling. You must be moving. You must have that energy in your body. That’s how you’re going to learn English much, much faster. Okay, I will see you next time.

      The Vocabulary Lesson

      Hi, this is Alex and this is the vocabulary lesson for “A Dog and a Lion”. This is the lesson where I am going to liberate you from the story. The lesson where I am going to give you confidence and freedom you need in order to become a fantastic, confident and first rate English speaker. Let’s begin!

      Let me tell you some words about this story first. This story “A Dog and a Lion” is not my story. I didn’t write it. I mean I am not the person who is the author, the creator of the story. No, no, no, no. This story is not mine. I learned the story from a Buddhist monk. It was when I was travelling in Perth, Australia, because that time I was very much interested in Buddhism. And I visited there a Buddhist Temple, a Buddhist monastery. There was a monk there and his name was Ajman Braham. He told me this story. And I liked the story very much and I asked him, “Ajman Braham, can I use this story while teaching my students English?” And he said, “Yes, sure, Alex, you can do it.” So that is why you have this wonderful, fantastic and extremely instructive story to learn.

      So let’s jump into the vocabulary lesson.

      Our fist expression for today is to make a good dinner. It comes from the sentence: “That dog will make a good dinner.”

      So the lion says to himself, “That dog will make a good dinner”. The lion thinks to himself that the dog is good to eat. This is a healthy dog. Actually, it looks like healthy. The dog doesn’t look sick. And the dog is easy to catch and easy to eat. And that is why the lion thinks if he catches the dog, he can cook the dog and then can eat the dog. So he thought, “That dog will make a good dinner.” So the dinner is going to be nice, fantastic and very tasty.

      But from the story we know that the dog is a mind-reader.
