  "  This is it.  This is the number one rule you must follow.  It is
simple and easy.

Yet, most schools ignore it.  Think about your first English class.
Did you learn easily and fast?  Did the teacher speak only English?

In most schools, the teacher does not speak much English to
beginners.  They speak mostly your language.  In Japanese schools,
for example, the teachers speak mostly Japanese! 

They explain English grammar-- using Japanese.  They answer
questions-- using Japanese.  They translate English words-- into
Japanese.  They even use the Japanese writing system (katakana)
to spell English words. 

And what do they mostly teach?  Grammar.  Students learn English
grammar
by listening to teachers speak Japanese.  Do you see the
problem? 

The result-- Japanese students cannot think in English, cannot
speak English, and cannot understand native English speakers.  Their
speaking is usually slow and painful. 

This method is crazy--  it is guaranteed to fail. There is nothing
wrong with Japanese students-- its the Japanese schools that are
the problem.  The schools, not the students, are failing.

The same is true in most countries.  Its even true of English
schools in the U.S., UK, and Canada. 

**RULE 3: The Most Important Rule


What is the rule that Humberto found with the Club? Simple. 
The rule is listening.


              Listening, listening, listening. 


You must listen to UNDERSTANDABLE English.  You must listen to
English EVERYDAY.

Its simple.  That is the key to your English success. 
Stop studying grammar.  Start listening everyday.


  Listen everyday-- and your speaking will improve quickly.
  Listen everyday-- and you will feel relaxed and powerful.
  Listen everyday-- and you will speak English easily.



**Learn With Your Ears, Not Your Eyes

In most schools, you learn English with your eyes.  You read
textbooks.  You study word lists.  You study grammar rules. 

That is why you read English well, but cannot speak it.
That is why you cannot understand English TV and movies. 

Effortless English is a listening system.  You learn English with
your ears, not your eyes.  You listen 1-3 hours every day. "
