I arrived at my friend Karin’s wedding a little late and the ceremony had already begun. I’ve been to a lot of civil ceremonies, but it had been a while since I’d attended a religious one. They had asked a minister to officiate.

When I arrived, Karin and her fiancé, Jan, were standing in front of the church.

Minister: We are gathered here today to join Jan and Karin in holy matrimony. If there is anyone here who knows of a reason why these two should not be joined in marriage, speak now or forever hold your peace.

Fortunately, no one said anything.

Minister: Jan and Karin, please face each other and join hands.

Minister: [To Jan] Do you, Jan Casanova, take Karin Valentine, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, to love and to cherish, for better and for worse, for richer and for poorer, in sickness and in health, ‘till death do you part.

Jan said, “I do,” and the minister asked Karin the same question, and she said, “I do,” as well.

Minister: May I have the rings? [To Jan] Please place this ring, a symbol of your love, on Karin’s hand and say, “With this ring, I thee wed”.

Jan put the ring on the fourth finger of Karin’s left hand. Karin said the same thing and put a ring on Jan’s finger.

Minister: I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.

Jan and Karin kissed and we all applauded.

Minister: Ladies and gentleman, it is my great honor to present to you for the very first time the happy couple, Jan and Karin.

Hello every one of our little community!🌞

Hello every one of our little community!🌞

I wanna tell you something about “DREAM OF PERFECTION” in 👆 photo.

   

We all heard of “Perfectionism is a slow death”, “Perfectionism is a disease” and such quotes about perfection. 

  

But why?!  Have you ever thought deeply about this?

Have you ever faced with problems which seems concluded from Perfectionism?

This happened to me many times. So, I started googling related subjects and came up with some amazing ideas about" what is it" and "How can I get rid of it". That why I have decided to share it with you.

During my whole life, I always found myself got stuck in decision making stage. When it came to start a project or doing something generally. It really kills my whole motivation to start something every time and prevents me to even starting it. And actually it was nothing but, over thinking about the subject and over developing the ideas! This issue even happened every time I actually started the project but, found myself in the same situation: Stop doing something while developing, thinking, expanding the idea and do it again and again and again.

Now I believe the solution is really easy: Don’t scare of not being perfect, just start, and let it go!

You will probably correct and develop your ideas in a middle of process, or even not, who cares! Doing a thing with mistake is much better that not doing it at all.

I’m telling you guys that is the main reason for me to start our channel, and start writing in English to the others which I have always dreamed of. But, prevent myself from starting/doing it due to my perfectionism.

What do you think about this?!🙂

Do you have any experiences regarding this in your life?🙂

How it sounds if we share our ideas in a group, get to know each other and take advantage of each other’s experiences?!😃

Sounds awesome?!   

No more jokes for now!

No more jokes for now! 😐 kidding, this class is all about joking and laughing 😜

Hello there you guys😊 welcome to your unique English club.   

This is your Englishhhhh teacher! 😎

Am I?! 😁 Noooo definitely not! 😉

To be honest, I’m not an English teacher! I am not even free to teach you something if I was one! 

So what the hell am I doing here?! 🤓  

I’m Pooya, your new guider through damn English learning process! Why "damn"?! 

Because most of us have had bad experiences and feelings about English as we always have been surrounded with ordinary text books and huge grammar rules, which, I’m telling you guys, are all useless in this process! And even preventing!

The main reason why I’m here is my confusion when I was trying to prepare for IELTS exam last year, and so, I am trying to tell you, how you can become a master of English without attending to any classes or studying any sort of useless textbooks as well as grammar rules, like I did. 

So, I will provide you with a required English material, both audio and script, every day or two. And give you some tips about "how to maximize your learning capability" and generally, ideas on this regard, such as, "how to achieve goals " or " how to determine your progress ".  

And I expect you to stick to your channel and surround yourself with an English contents like movies, TV series, newspapers, TV channels, etc. Also, give me your ideas, suggestions and feedbacks every time 😊

And TRUST me!

Because I reached band score 8 in listening and 7.5 in reading, all by myself without attending classes and so you can do too! Why not?!  Even much more better than me, 

🔆REMEMBER🔆 English learning is not a History exam which required some nights before the examination to become ready, actually, it takes time. A lot of time!

 That’s why we call this technique

 “One step a day “and ask you to do it almost every day, consistently!

Long story short!  Clear your mind about any English trauma (means bad experiences or feelings) if you have cause I promise that you are finally in a right place to learn English👍

Ps: my speaking and writing marks was awful! I have scored band 6 in writing and 6.5 in speaking 😁 , that’s why I made grammatical mistakes all the time, and please, if you find some , just tell me. 🙏 How?! 

Good luck

Top 5 english Learning Mistakes

Top 5⃣ English Learning Mistakes

🕐 Focusing On Grammar

This is the biggest, most common, and worst mistake. Research shows that grammar study, in fact, actually hurts English speaking ability.

🕑 Forcing Speech

Both English students and teachers try to force speech before the learner is ready. The result is that most students speak English very slowly– with no confidence and no fluency.

🕒 Learning Only Formal Textbook English

Unfortunately, most English students learn only the formal English found in textbooks and schools. The problem is– native speakers don’t use that kind of English in most situations.

🕓 Trying To Be Perfect

Students and teachers often focus on mistakes. They worry about mistakes. They correct mistakes. They feel nervous about mistakes. They try to speak perfectly. No one, however, is perfect. Native speakers make mistakes all the time.

🕔 Relying On English Schools

Most English learners rely totally on schools. They think the teacher and the school are responsible for their success. This is never true. You, the English learner, are always responsible. A good teacher can help, but ultimately you must be responsible for your own learning.

Now is the time for you to speak English confidently!😎
