hello everybody it is David Claussen and I'm doing another video on to speak English fluently
because I get so many questions about it
and I'm always looking for new programs
and software and technology to help you and I found two free ones
to help you out
in another article I made it in English speaking practice I showed you in this video
and you may want to go to my web site to see it
I teach you about an audio program a free one
called audacity
that you can use
and I found
a couple more to help you with
speaking fluently what you'll do first go to google
and type in chrome web store
I use the browser called chrome because it goes faster with
google but you should be able to find this on fire fox or Internet explorer or another browser
OK when you're in the chrome web store first type in select
and speak
and it is this program right here
you will click over here
it will look like this
add to chrome
I have it so that's why this is green
then at the chrome web store
type in Dictanote
and you will click that and add it
to your browser
next
you will make another new window
so I will click google and open new window
and from that new window I click new tab
and there is Dictanote and I click that
and what Dictanote does
is it will record your voice
so this microphone
right here I click that
hello will you understand me
and there
it
types out what you
just said
and now
once you have the Dictanote, you're gonna move it over
so I'll move this over
and then I will click my other browser
and then the browser you move that over
and now you have the two side by side
and what you do is find an article
that you like because
remember you want to do something you like
I found one just on keystone resort it's skiing it's close to where we live in Colorado
but do it on anything sports or
traveling or business or entertainment whatever you like, it doesn't matter
and what you'll do is
you find an area
of the article
and then in chrome you click select and speak
and select and speak will
read whatever you select to you, so let me show you so I'm gonna select this
let's just go to right
here
then I click here and I click Select and Speak
let me do that again
what's cool about that, let me stop that
is that
you click this options and you can change the speed
so if that is too fast I can slow it down
and listen to this 12345 I can speed it up here all the way to the end
that's too fast
that's not good, so you can put the speed wherever you want
and you can hear
what you select now
you go over to
Dictanote
and then you can practice your English
by typing so I will do that
keystone consists of three mountains named
and there it writes it you can see that it wrote it
so it's a great way to practice
plus you can take
what you said in here and type it out and put it into a google document or wherever you want
let's try a couple more so you get an idea
so I will select
I will go up to Select and Speak and click it
and you can hear it there now is a computer voice
so it's not as good but
it's good enough if you practice
you will get more and more fluent it's all about listening
by doing this you actually train your mouth like
a native speaker so let's try it in Dictanote, so here we go so here
and there it writes it out now it missed a couple things
and so it's not the best
but it's a way a for you to practice
let's say you want to get better at just some basic English these are the hundred most important words
you can just play with that
so let's try this about so I click the microphone
about
all
many more
so it's a way you can use it for
complicated articles
and basic English
so it's something that's free
and the two programs are Dictanote
and select and speak
and those two tools if you do 5 minutes each day
that's really gonna help you speak more
fluently
so I will find many more free programs for you in the future
to constantly help you speak more fluently
