The End
* * * * *
That’s the end of our future point of view story. Once again, so easy, right? Just listen.
Just listen for my pronunciation. Listen how I make little changes. When I change the
point of view I make small changes to the vocabulary. I say oh, oh, oh, I say gonna,
gonna, gonna, and that’s all. You don’t need to think about a bunch of grammar rules.
Throw away your damn grammar book. Get rid of that textbook. Just listen to these
stories again and again.
Remember, deep learning, you’re going to listen to this same story every day for seven
days, maybe over the course of two weeks. Maybe more, I don’t know. But you’re
going to learn it deeply. You’re going to get this repetition again, again, again. And then
the next lesson, again, again, again. And the next lesson, again, again, again. And
soon you will learn this grammar subconsciously. That’s what we’re doing. That’s the
purpose of these stories, to learn this grammar subconsciously. So all you need to do is
listen and enjoy the stories.
Okay, I will see you next time. That’s the end of the POV lesson for “The Power of
Reading.” And by the way, one last homework assignment, go find some easy novels,
easy children’s novels…Goosebumps, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory, I don’t care. Go buy some. Get on Amazon and find some and start
reading. Read every day for fun. Read something easy. Read something fun.
