शैडोइंग अभ्यास: CELPIP Speaking Task 2 - TIPS! - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

Oooooh!

This guy is going to take the CELPIP exam.

And he's studying for task 2 of the speaking test, which is a personal experience.

He has to talk about a personal experience.

Do you know how you should answer this question?

Well, in this lesson, we're going to look at how you should answer this question.

And hey, he's using my book to study for the exam!

I'm so happy about that.

I'm really excited.

Thank you so much to everyone who's bought my book.

It's a real honor to be able to help you prepare for your CELPIP test.

If you want to pick up a copy of my book, you can just go to my website,

metv.cool, and you can just download a PDF copy of my book right on my website.

Okay, so let's take a look at task two.

Personal experience, you have 30 seconds to prepare and 60 seconds to speak.

Okay, so we're going to take a look at one of the questions from my book.

It says, talk about a time you made a change in your lifestyle.

What was the change and how did it affect your life?

Talk about a change you made in your lifestyle.

What was the change and how did it affect your life?

Okay, so let's take a look at some of my tips, right?

First I say, if you can think of a personal example from your life, that's great.

But if you can't think of one immediately, then just make something up.

For example, you could talk about changing your diet.

Or you could talk about changing anything in your life, okay?

So, when you answer this question, you should tell a story.

Most stories start with a time reference.

Like, last year, three years ago, six months ago, I...

Right?

That's how stories start.

They start with a time reference.

Okay, in your first sentence, you should say what the change was that you made in your lifestyle.

Okay?

Then, in the rest of the sentences, you'll talk about how it affected your life.

Okay?

Then you're going to give some reasons

or tell some stories about how it really changed your life or how it impacted your life.

Okay?

Now, remember, use past tense verbs.

You have to remember to use past tense verbs.

This is so important.

I know a lot of languages don't have past tense verbs.

So it's very hard.

If you make a few mistakes, you know, that's okay.

But generally you need to use past tense verbs when you answer this question.

Okay, so I'm going to give you an outline of exactly how you should answer this question.

Okay, so remember when you see task two on the speaking part of the test, just follow the outline I'm going to give you

and you'll do fine okay

so the first thing you need to do is you need to give a time reference okay

so you could say so three years ago okay very often when native english speakers start telling a story

they use the word so.

So three years ago I was skiing and I broke my arm.

Okay.

Or you could say when I was in college I blah blah blah.

Last week I went to a party at my friend's house.

Okay.

So you always have to start with a time reference.

Then after the time reference you're going to give your short introduction phrase like this.

I broke my leg.

So three years ago, I broke my leg while I was skiing down a mountain.

Okay.

Then you're going to tell the story.

You're going to talk about your experiences.

Okay.

So you need to tell your story using past tense verbs.

Like I said that already.

Went, studied, ate, anything that's related to your story, you're going to use past tense verse.

Now, here's an important thing I want to mention.

Okay, your voice, your tone of voice should match the mood of the story.

I mean, is it a happy story?

Is it, is it, you know, a frustrating experience that you're talking about?

You know, one of the questions in my book is talk about a frustrating experience you had in the workplace.

So you need to think of a frustrating experience you had

and you need to sound frustrated when you're thinking back about that experience.

Okay, you might say, so three years ago I worked at this one company and

I had a co-worker and that co-worker just drove me up the wall.

Drove me up the wall.

That means really irritated me, frustrated me.

Okay, so your voice needs to sound frustrated.

You can't say, three years ago, I had a very frustrating experience at my workplace.

my boss was really mean to me and I you can't sound happy

if it's a frustrating experience you have to sound sad

if it's a happy experience you have to sound happy

if it's exciting

if it's a you know just all these different kinds of

emotions you need to to use emotion in this answer the person who's listening to you should get the feeling

that you are remembering the experience.

Okay, so then at the end you're just going to give a short conclusion.

It's just one little short sentence.

That's it.

Okay, you could say, anyway, that was a really frustrating experience for me.

Okay, now most of the time when native English speakers are going to stop their story,

or when they're going to conclude their story, they use the word anyway.

We use that a lot.

That word signals the end of our story.

Anyway, that was a really frustrating experience for me.

Anyway, that was the best Chinese food I ever ate in my life.

Anyway, that was a really fun party.

Anyway, I'm never going to forget that.

100

That was such a fun trip.

101

Anyway, okay, so that's a good word to use when you're going to end your story.

102

Okay, so let's take a look at this question.

103

So talk about a time you made a change in your lifestyle.

104

What was the change and how did it affect your life?

105

What would you say?

106

Well, I'm going to share my answer with you right now.

107

But first I just want to teach you these vocabulary words that I'll use in my answer.

108

Okay, night owl.

109

A night owl is someone who stays up late.

110

They don't go to bed early.

111

Okay, an early bird is someone who wakes up early.

112

So if you wake up at like 5 a.m every morning, you're an early bird.

113

If you go to bed at midnight or after midnight, then you're a night owl.

114

Okay, impact.

115

Something has an impact on you.

116

That means how it influences your life.

117

What effect it has on your life.

118

Okay, crisp means cool.

119

Chirping, that's the sound birds make.

120

Chirping.

121

Refreshing.

122

Refreshing.

123

Okay, that means it makes you feel fresh.

124

Remember, you don't need to use lots of big words in your answer.

125

Just try to use natural words.

126

These are some words that a native speaker would use in this situation.

127

Okay, so I say this a few times throughout my book.

128

Look, don't try to use really advanced words and phrases.

129

Then you're going to get caught up in your answer.

130

Your answer is going to be really disjointed.

131

You know, sometimes when I was practicing helping people prepare for the CELPIP exam,

132

they would just use the most advanced words and phrases.

133

And honestly, the way I would answer these questions is much simpler than the way most students would answer them.

134

I just use very, very basic words, simple words, but natural words.

135

So try to use natural words.

136

These are just normal words that a native English speaker would use in this situation.

137

Okay, so here's my answer.

138

When I was in college, I had to take early morning classes.

139

The classes started at 7am, which meant that I had to wake up at 5.30.

140

That was a big change for me because I had to start going to bed earlier.

141

It was hard to make this change because I've always been a night owl.

142

I like staying up late and watching movies and chatting online, but this change really had a positive impact on my life.

143

After a few months of early mornings, I really fell in love with the new schedule.

144

I felt less tired than I used to.

145

It was so refreshing breathing the crisp morning air as I walked to school.

146

I loved hearing the birds chirping and seeing the sunrise.

147

Even though I don't have to wake up early anymore, I still do it because I've grown to love it.

148

Nowadays, I'm an early bird.

149

Okay, nowadays I'm an early bird.

150

So there's just my conclusion.

151

You don't need to use anyway.

152

You can just say this.

153

Nowadays, I'm an early bird.

154

You could say, anyway, that was a change I made in my lifestyle.

155

Anyway, that was a very positive change I made in my lifestyle a few years ago.

156

You know, you can say whatever you want, just a short conclusion is really nice.

157

If you don't have time for a conclusion, you know, I don't know how many marks they'll take off if you don't have a conclusion,

158

but it's better to have a short conclusion in your answers on the CELPIP test.

159

Okay, so I'm going to give you some homework.

160

I want you to talk about the worst food you've ever eaten.

161

What is the worst food you've ever eaten?

162

Now remember, this is just simple.

163

Follow my strategy.

164

What are you going to do first?

165

You're going to have a time reference.

166

What are you going to do next?

167

You're going to have your simple introductory phrase.

168

Okay.

169

So, three years ago, I went to a restaurant here in Calgary.

170

There I have my time reference and my introductory phrase.

171

And then I just tell my story using past tense verbs, using some emotion to talk about why the food was so bad.

172

And then I conclude by saying, anyway, that was the worst food I've ever eaten in my life.

173

Okay, so I think if you follow these tips for this question, I think you guys are going to do really well on the self-tip test for this question.

174

I think this is one of the easiest questions on the test, but you have to remember you have to use past tense verbs

175

and try to use the emotion that you would have experienced back when you experienced whatever happened.

176

Like if you're sad, sound sad, angry, sound angry.

177

Okay, anyway, what do you think?

178

Do you think you'll do well on this question on the test?

179

Let me know your answer to this down there, and I look forward to reading about all the terrible food you've eaten in your life.

180

Okay, I'll see you over in the next episode of Mad English TV.

181

Take care.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
