Sacrifice, Risk, and Success

A.J. Hoge, host of The Effortless English Show, discussed the necessity of sacrifice and risk in order to achieve success with English or anything else in life.

[@vuly7014]

i really like this video. Because i knew and experienced the sacrifice. I had sacrificed for one year to focus completely on learning English. i quit my job, i didn't spend time watching movies, music and going out. i could count how many times i went out of my house. I had spent 12-14 hours per day learning English. i couldn't make a sentence and pronounce a word correctly. i overcame that hard time so i know that feeling. I can't say that my English is really good but i can basically communicate with others in the different countries. I can learn English by watching videos in English. i also took a Toeic test and got 745 score. That score isn't so high but i'm satisfied with it. I had to do more than others because my starting point was lower than them. i still keep on listening to English videos every day although i have to work. But i will try to touch English as much as i can. Hope you guys do it too.

[@balvpro]

Congratulations! Vu. I am really admire you story. It will inspire a lot of people to overcame hard time like you. Now I consider learning English is one of the most interesting activity to relax everyday :)

Hi! I following your videos and I find it amazing!! You are the best, please dont stop ;) I'm Portuguese living in England for 3 years. I would like ask to you to make a video about someone who move to another contry with 45 years old and how much dificult is to learn a new languges. Do you think that is possible speak English like a native in my age? Wish all the sucess ;)

[@elsareyes8333]

Excellent AJ, I loved !!!!!

[@PrinceImutero]

hello sir aj im one of your follower eversince..i always tried to listen and understand your several videos here,and im so thankful for sharing you thoughts and ideas on how to boost our english communication in everyday of our life..thanks you so much i really appreciate your help for us!^_^

[@MuhammadEgypt]

I think another useful tip is to only focus on one type of English, whether British, American or whatever. It's like building the foundation for something new. You can't get it mixed by a variety of different types of things. You can focus on American English until you're quite familiar with it, then you can get exposed to British English or vice versa. What do you think, A.J?

[@AsmaaKJumaa]

Dear A.J Hoge, Your lessons are such an amazing lessons! Now, after listening to your videos and trying to apply it on my own daily life. I can feel how my English started to go up, especially in speaking. Thanks a lot for the gorgeous lessons! Question : is there an Arabic version of your book? Asma from Syria.

[@phamdanghuy1983]
