Hi everyone and welcome back to the 5-Minute English Podcast.
2
I'm Jessica and I'm so happy you're here with me today.
3
Let me ask you something.
4
How do you feel when someone says, tell me about yourself?
5
Do you feel excited or maybe a little nervous?
6
Many people find this question difficult,
7
especially when speaking in English.
8
But don't worry.
9
Today I'll show you that it can be easy and natural to talk about yourself.
10
So, let me go first.
11
My name is Jessica.
12
I'm 26 years old and I'm from Australia.
13
I grew up in a small coastal town near the beach,
14
so I've always loved the ocean.
15
These days, I live in London,
16
where I work as an English teacher and podcast host.
17
I really enjoy helping people around the world learn English and feel more confident when they speak.
18
Teaching is my passion because I get to meet people from so many countries and learn about different cultures every day.
19
In my free time, I love reading,
20
especially novels and travel stories.
21
Reading helps me relax and gives me new ideas for my lessons and podcasts.
22
I also enjoy going for walks in the park.
23
London has so many beautiful green spaces,
24
and walking helps me clear my mind after a busy day.
25
On weekends, I like meeting friends for coffee or visiting art galleries.
26
I've always loved art because it helps me see the world in a creative way.
27
If I had to describe myself,
28
I'd say I'm friendly, curious, and positive.
29
I try to find something good in every situation,
30
even when things are difficult.
31
I really believe that learning something new,
32
like a language, can change your life.
33
It's not only about grammar or vocabulary,
34
it's also about connecting with people and seeing the world from a new perspective.
35
So that's a little bit about me.
36
Now, I'd love to hear about you.
37
What's your name?
38
Where are you from?
39
What do you like doing in your free time?
40
Try saying it out loud.
41
Speaking out loud helps you feel more confident and it's one of the best ways to practice English every day.
42
Thank you so much for listening to today's episode of the 5-Minute English Podcast.
43
If you enjoyed it, don't forget to follow and share this podcast with your friends.
44
And remember, every time you talk about yourself,
45
you're not just practicing English.
46
You're also learning to express who you are.
47
Until next time, keep speaking,
48
keep smiling, and keep learning.
49
Bye for now.

About This Lesson

Welcome to this engaging English speaking practice lesson! In today's session, you will learn how to introduce yourself clearly and confidently in English. The ability to share personal information, such as your name, age, and interests, is essential for making new connections and engaging in conversations. By following along with this lesson, you will discover techniques to express yourself naturally, just like Jessica in the podcast. This practice will not only help you improve your English proficiency but also boost your confidence in social situations.

Key Vocabulary & Phrases

  • Introduce yourself - Start by stating your name and other basic information.
  • Cultural background - Talk about where you come from and your experiences.
  • Interests and hobbies - Share what you enjoy doing in your free time.
  • Positive traits - Describe yourself using words like "friendly," "curious," and "positive."
  • Connect with people - Communicate effectively to build relationships.
  • Express who you are - Share your personality through conversation.
  • Walking in the park - A common leisure activity that helps to relax.
  • Reading - An enjoyable pastime that can also enrich vocabulary.

Practice Tips

To get the most out of this lesson, I recommend employing a technique called shadowspeak. This method involves listening to the podcast and repeating phrases after the speaker, mirroring their speed and tone. The podcast features a comfortable pace, making it suitable for learners at the A2 level. Here are some tips for effective shadowspeaking:

  • Listen closely - Pay attention to Jessica’s intonation and pronunciation.
  • Repeat after her - Don’t be afraid to pause the audio and practice out loud. This will help you improve your English pronunciation.
  • Record yourself - After practicing, try recording your voice. Compare it with the original to identify areas for improvement.
  • Focus on fluency - Aim for smoothness over perfection. The goal is to build your English speaking practice abilities and confidence.
  • Regular practice - Incorporate shadowspeaking into your daily routine to continuously enhance your skills. You can even explore more videos to learn English with YouTube.

Remember, the more you practice speaking aloud, the more natural it will feel to communicate in English. So go ahead, share something about yourself, and enjoy the journey of learning! Keep speaking, keep smiling, and keep learning.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
