Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,

where learning English is easy and fun.

I'm Emily.

Hello Emily.

Hi everyone.

It is so wonderful to be here with you today.

I am feeling very happy.

I am happy too, Paul.

You look very energetic today.

Did you have a good morning?

I did.

I had a very big breakfast.

Eggs, toast, and a very large orange juice.

It was delicious.

Oh, wow.

A big breakfast is the best way to start the day.

I only had a small yogurt and my coffee.

Well, your coffee is very important too.

I see it there.

It looks warm.

It is.

It is my favorite part of the morning.

But Paul, I'm excited because today we have a very special topic.

Oh, I love special topics.

What are we talking about today?

Today, we are going to learn how to express our opinion.

Ah, opinions.

That is very important.

We all have opinions, right?

Yes, exactly.

We have opinions about food,

movies, music, and even the weather.

That is true.

I have many opinions.

Sometimes I think I have too many opinions.

That's okay.

It is good to share what we think.

It helps us talk to people and make friends.

I agree.

But sometimes it is hard to find the right words in English.

I don't want to be rude,

and I want people to understand me.

You are right, Paul.

Many students feel nervous about this.

They think, how do I say what I think?

Or is this correct?

Yes, that is exactly how I feel sometimes.

So, I am ready to learn some easy ways to do this.

Great.

But wait, Paul.

Before we start our chat,

we should ask our friends for a small favor.

Oh, yes, you are right.

And please subscribe to Mr. English Channel.

We want to see you here every week.

And don't forget to share this with your friends or family.

If they are learning English,

they can listen and learn with us too.

Thank you so much.

Okay, Ball, are you ready?

I am ready.

Let's talk about opinions.

Okay, so the first way to give an opinion is very, very simple.

We use two words, I think.

I think.

Hmm, I know those words.

Yes, it is the most common way to start.

For example, I think this coffee is great.

Ah, okay.

So I can say, I think the sun is very bright today.

Exactly.

Or, I think English is fun.

I definitely think English is fun.

That is an easy one.

It is.

Another word that is very similar is I feel.

I feel?

Like my emotions?

Yes, but we use it for opinions too.

For example, I feel that this movie is too long.

Oh, I see.

So, I think and I feel are like cousins.

They are very similar.

Yes, they are perfect for daily life.

You can use them with your friends or at work.

What if I want to sound a little more formal or different?

That is a good question.

You can use the phrase, in my opinion.

In my opinion?

That sounds very professional, Emily.

It does, but it is still easy to use.

In my opinion, the blue dress is better than the red dress.

Oh, I like that.

In my opinion, pizza is the best food in the world.

Well, that is a very strong opinion, Paul.

100

But it is a good sentence.

101

Thank you.

102

So we have I think,

103

I feel, and in my opinion.

104

Yes, and there is one more that is very friendly.

105

You can say, for me… For me?

106

Yes.

107

For me, summer is the best season.

108

It shows that this is your personal idea.

109

Ah, for me, tea is better than coffee.

110

Oh, Paul, how can you say that?

111

I'm sorry.

112

It is just an example.

113

I like your coffee too.

114

Okay, okay, I forgive you.

115

But see, you just expressed your opinion.

116

That was great.

117

Wow, it is not so difficult.

118

But Emily, what happens after I say my opinion?

119

I want to know what the other person thinks.

120

That is very important.

121

A conversation is two people talking,

122

so you must ask a question.

123

What question should I ask?

124

The easiest one is, what do you think?

125

What do you think?

126

Okay, I like that.

127

It is simple.

128

Yes, or you can ask, do you agree?

129

Do you agree?

130

Hmm, that is a good one too.

131

Let's practice, Paul.

132

I will give an opinion and then I will ask you.

133

Okay, I'm ready.

134

I think that cats are better than dogs.

135

What do you think?

136

Oh, hmm, I'm not sure.

137

For me, dogs are better because they are very friendly.

138

Do you agree?

139

I see.

140

I agree that dogs are friendly,

141

but I think cats are very cute and quiet.

142

That is true.

143

Cats are very quiet.

144

My dog is very loud.

145

See, we are having a real conversation about opinions.

146

Yes, and I used a new phrase.

147

I said, I'm not sure.

148

Yes, that was perfect, Paul.

149

I'm not sure is a very polite way to say you don't have the same opinion.

150

Is it rude to say no?

151

Sometimes just saying no can be a little strong.

152

It's better to say, I disagree,

153

or I don't think so.

154

I don't think so.

155

That sounds softer.

156

Yes.

157

Or you can say, maybe, but… Maybe, but...

158

Oh, I like that.

159

It shows I am listening.

160

Maybe, but I think the other restaurant is cheaper.

161

Exactly.

162

It is very polite.

163

It shows you respect the other person's idea,

164

even if you don't agree.

165

This is very helpful.

166

Sometimes I am afraid to say I don't agree because I don't want the other person to be sad or angry.

167

I understand.

168

But in English-speaking cultures, it is okay to have different opinions.

169

We just use polite words.

170

Polite words.

171

Like, in my opinion, or I see your point, but… Yes.

172

I see your point is a fantastic phrase.

173

It means, I understand what you are saying.

174

I see your point, Emily,

175

but I think green tea is very healthy.

176

You really love your tea today, Paul.

177

I do.

178

It gives me energy.

179

That's great.

180

Now, Paul, what if we agree with someone?

181

What can we say?

182

Hmm.

183

I usually just say yes.

184

Yes is okay, but we have better ways.

185

You can say, I agree with you.

186

I agree with you.

187

Okay.

188

Or you can say, exactly.

189

Oh, exactly.

190

I hear

191

that word a lot yes it means you agree 100 it

192

is a very positive word exactly see i used it perfect you can also say you're right you're right

193

that is a very nice thing to hear it is

194

when someone says you're right it makes me feel very happy me too So,

195

if you say, this podcast is very helpful for students,

196

I can say, you're right.

197

Ah, thank you, Paul.

198

And I agree with you, too.

199

This is fun.

200

We are learning how to agree and how to disagree.

201

Yes, but there is one more thing.

202

When we give an opinion,

203

it is very good to say, why.

204

Why?

205

You mean, give a reason?

206

Yes, we use the word because.

207

Because.

208

Okay, I think winter is beautiful because I love the snow.

209

Yes, that is a complete opinion.

210

Opinion plus because plus reason.

211

Okay, let me try another one.

212

In my opinion, learning English is important because it helps you travel.

213

Wow, Paul, that is a perfect sentence.

214

It is very clear.

215

Thank you.

216

It feels good to say more than just, I like English.

217

Yes.

218

Adding because makes your English sound much better.

219

It makes you sound more confident.

220

Confidence.

221

Like our other episode.

222

Exactly.

223

Confidence is key.

224

Emily, I have a question.

225

What if I don't have an opinion?

226

Sometimes people ask me, what do you think of this new song?

227

And I don't know the song.

228

That happens to me, too.

229

In that situation, you can say, I don't really know.

230

I don't really know.

231

Or, I don't have a strong opinion about that.

232

I don't have a strong opinion.

233

That is a long sentence,

234

but it is very useful.

235

It is.

236

It means you don't care very much or you don't have enough information.

237

That is very honest.

238

I like being honest.

239

Me too.

240

Honesty is important in conversation.

241

Okay, so we have many tools now.

242

I think, I feel, in my opinion,

243

for me, I agree, I disagree, and because.

244

Yes, you are doing a great job, Paul.

245

Should we practice with some more topics?

246

Yes, let's do it.

247

Hmm, what is a good topic?

248

Oh, movies.

249

Okay.

250

What is your opinion on action movies?

251

Hmm.

252

I think action movies are very exciting because they are fast.

253

What do you think, Emily?

254

For me, action movies are a bit loud.

255

I prefer romantic movies because they are sweet.

256

Do you agree?

257

Maybe.

258

But sometimes romantic movies are a little boring for me.

259

I see your point.

260

They can be slow, but that is okay.

261

We can like different things.

262

Exactly.

263

We are still friends.

264

Of course.

265

Okay, let's try another one.

266

What is your opinion on cooking at home?

267

Oh, in my opinion, cooking at home is better than eating at a restaurant because it's cheaper,

268

and I like to cook.

269

What about you?

270

I agree with you, Paul.

271

Cooking at home is healthy.

272

But I think eating at a restaurant is fun because you don't have to wash the dishes.

273

Oh, you are right.

274

Washing the dishes is the worst part.

275

It really is.

276

I don't like it at all.

277

Me neither.

278

So, for me, a restaurant is better on the weekends.

279

That is a good plan.

280

See?

281

We are using all the phrases.

282

It feels very natural.

283

It doesn't feel like a lesson.

284

It feels like a chat.

285

That is the goal.

286

Learning English should feel natural.

287

I agree.

288

Emily, do you have any more tips for our listeners?

289

Yes.

290

My advice is to start small.

291

Don't try to use very difficult words.

292

Use I think first.

293

I think is a great start.

294

Yes, and when you're comfortable, try In My Opinion.

295

And don't forget to smile.

296

Like we said in the confidence episode,

297

a smile makes your opinion sound friendly.

298

Yes, even if you disagree,

299

if you smile and say,

300

I'm not sure, it is very kind.

301

That is true.

302

A smile is very powerful.

303

It really is.

304

Paul, I think we have covered a lot today.

305

We have.

306

I feel much more confident about sharing my ideas now.

307

That makes me so happy,

308

and I hope our listeners feel the same way.

309

I hope so, too.

310

It is so much fun to talk about what we like and what we don't like.

311

Yes, it makes the world interesting.

312

Imagine if everyone had the same opinion.

313

That would be boring.

314

Oh, yes, very boring.

315

Everyone eating the same food and watching the same movies?

316

No thank you.

317

Definitely not.

318

Well, Paul, before we finish,

319

should we remember the main points from today?

320

Yes, let's think.

321

What did we talk about first?

322

Well, we started with the easy ways to say what we think,

323

like using I think or I feel.

324

That's right.

325

And I remember we can also use for me or in my opinion if we want to change it a bit.

326

Yes.

327

And then we talked about how to ask other people for their ideas using what do you think or do you agree?

328

Oh, and my favorite part was learning how to agree and disagree politely using words like exactly or I'm not sure.

329

Exactly.

330

And we also said it is very important to use the word because to give a reason for our opinion.

331

Yes, because makes the sentence complete.

332

And if we don't know,

333

we can just say, I'm not sure or I don't know.

334

Perfect, Paul.

335

You remembered everything.

336

You are a star.

337

Thank you, Emily.

338

You are a great teacher.

339

Oh, thank you.

340

But we are just friends talking.

341

That is the best way to learn.

342

It really is.

343

Well, I think our time is almost finished.

344

Yes, it is.

345

But before we go, we want to hear from you, our listeners.

346

Yes, we have a question for you to answer in the comments.

347

What is the question, Paul?

348

Hmm.

349

In your opinion, what is the best city in the world and why?

350

Oh, that is a fantastic question.

351

In my opinion, the best city is because… Yes!

352

Please write your answer in English.

353

We love to read your comments and your opinions.

354

Yes, we do.

355

It is so much fun to see where you are from and what you think.

356

The pleasure was mine, Paul.

363

I enjoyed our chat very much.

364

Me too.

365

Well, see you next time, everyone.

366

Bye for now.

367

Bye-bye.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
