1
So this is an exciting day because we are officially starting the Gay to Lease Journalism course.
2
Traditionally, we've understood journalism and research as this method of just collecting information,
3
organizing it, and then expressing it.
4
But then along came a man named Gay Police, and he transformed journalism.
5
He transformed the way we understood research.
6
So we create something called literary journalism,
7
which is the idea that journalism can by itself be literature.
8
The Gay Theliz Method is going to teach us how to be creative,
9
how to be imaginative, and how to engage with reality and engage with people.
10
Because we don't teach you this in school.
11
In fact, we teach you the opposite.
12
Don't explore, just do what the teacher tells you to do.
13
Where did you learn this?
14
Well, he learned this at home.
15
The reason why is that his father was a tailor.
16
And his father was a tailor.
17
And he had a tailoring business in New Jersey
18
and his mother took care of the business while his father made the clothes.
19
So what does happen with exploration and reflection?
20
Well, his mother was responsible for the business aspects.
21
So these very wealthy people would come to the shop and order very nice suits.
22
And her job was to deal with them.
23
It's actually very hard to deal with rich people.
24
They can be very demanding.
25
So her strategy was to become their friend.
26
And how do you become someone's friend?
27
What do you do in order to become someone's friend?
28
What must you do?
29
Wrong.
30
Not talk.
31
The opposite.
32
Listen.
33
Okay, you understand?
34
So, in the family living room,
35
the mother would just sit down on the couch talking with these very wealthy people
36
and she would talk just by listening
37
okay so her strategy for this is that i am interested in you
38
so that's how she became friends with all these very wealthy people even though she herself was not wealthy
39
because she She had a mindset that whoever came into her living room,
40
whoever was a client, was first and foremost a friend.
41
And she was interested in this person.
42
She was interested in people.
43
So she would spend hours and hours just listening to that person talk and talk and talk.
44
And so you can say that this is exploration.
45
curiosity exploration but in the other room the father would by himself sit
46
and work on the clothes right i'm not sure you've seen
47
taylor's work they are very precise they are very exact they are very meticulous they're very disciplined they're very patient
48
so he could spend days and days in this just working working on a piece of suit.
49
This is the idea of reflection.
50
The pursuit of perfection.
51
So exploration is the pursuit of curiosity.
52
And reflection is the pursuit of perfection.
53
This is the Gay Talese research method.
54
This is what I'll be teaching you.
55
This is something that will not just help you become a better writer,
56
but someone who will be much more creative and a much more effective researcher.
57
So even if you are going to the sciences,
58
I guarantee you that the skills you'll be learning in this class will help you wherever you go.
59
I want you to go around Beijing and take pictures.
60
Again, the idea is contrast.
61
Remember that here he says,
62
New York is a city of things unnoticed.
63
New York is a city of contrast.
64
I want you to do the same thing for Beijing.
65
Take your camera and take pictures of things that other people would not notice, okay?
66
And take pictures of things that are contrasts of each other.

Why practice speaking with this video?

Engaging with the content of this video is an excellent way to practice speaking, especially for those preparing for the IELTS speaking test. The storytelling approach taken by Jiang Xueqin emphasizes the importance of observation and listening, both key components in effective communication. By mimicking the speaker’s style, you can not only enhance your English pronunciation but also learn how to express your thoughts in a more articulate manner. This method encourages you to explore narratives creatively, making your conversations more engaging and relatable.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

Throughout the video, several key structures and expressions stand out that can enhance your speaking skills:

  • "So this is an exciting day because…” – This opening phrase establishes a connection with the audience and sets a positive tone. Practicing similar sentence starters can help you sound more engaging.
  • “He transformed journalism.” – Using the past simple tense effectively conveys completed actions. This structure can be used to share personal experiences or narrate events.
  • “So her strategy was to become their friend.” – The phrase introduces a common expression (“to become someone’s friend”), illustrating the importance of social strategies in communication.
  • “What must you do?” – This rhetorical question invites the audience to think critically, a technique that can be useful in speaking more dynamically during a conversation.

Incorporating these phrases into your conversation practice can greatly improve your fluency and clarity.

Common Pronunciation Traps

As you listen to Jiang Xueqin, pay attention to specific words and phrases that may pose challenges in pronunciation:

  • “strategies” – This word often trips up learners due to its multiple syllables. Break it down to “strat-e-gies” for clarity.
  • “exploration” – Ensure you pronounce this word distinctly, syllable by syllable: “ex-plor-a-tion.” Emphasizing each part will make your speech sound more polished.
  • “curiosity” – This word contains a soft "c" sound at the start, which might be tricky for some learners. Practicing this word can help you improve English pronunciation.

Utilizing the shadowing technique by repeating these phrases after listening will help you refine your accent and fluency. Regular practice will aid you in unlocking a more conversational style as you learn English with YouTube.

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.
