1
Hey, everyone.
2
Welcome back to Podcast and Chill on the Learn English Podcast channel.
3
Thanks for tuning in again.
4
We love having you here with us.
5
You know, Gwen, one thing I've noticed is how much our audience loves topics about developing their thinking skills.
6
That's true, Leo.
7
It makes sense.
8
They're probably looking for ways to improve their English learning process.
9
Absolutely.
10
Speaking of improving, Gwen, have you ever heard about growth mindset and fixed mindset? Of course, Leo.
11
A growth mindset is all about believing that your abilities can grow with effort and learning, while a fixed mindset assumes your abilities are set in stone.
12
Oh, so like, if I believe I can be the next big comedian by practicing every day, that's a growth mindset?
13
Well, let's not get carried away, Leo.
14
But yes, it's about believing in improvement.
15
Great.
16
Because today's topic is all about how adopting a growth mindset can help you in your language learning journey and beyond.
17
That's right.
18
Stick around and we'll break it all down.
19
And don't forget, we've created a free PDF with tips and tricks.
20
Check it out in the description or comments below.
21
So, Gwen, growth mindset, it sounds fancy, but what is it really?
22
Well, Leo, it's the belief that your abilities, intelligence, and skills can improve through hard work, learning, and persistence.
23
So it's like saying, I'm not good at this yet.
24
Exactly.
25
It's about focusing on progress, not perfection.
26
People with a growth mindset see mistakes as stepping stones, not roadblocks.
27
That's refreshing.
28
So, if I mess up my English grammar, it's not the end of the world?
29
Not at all.
30
It's just a chance to learn and get better.
31
In fact, studies by Stanford professor Carol Dweck show that embracing challenges helps you grow stronger mentally.
32
Oh, I've heard about her work.
33
She talks about how kids who believe they can improve do better in school, right?
34
Exactly.
35
And it's not just kids.
36
This works for adults, too.
37
It's like the phrase, you're never too old to learn.
38
I like that.
39
But how do I actually develop this magical mindset?
40
Start by seeing challenges as opportunities.
41
For example, if you find English pronunciation difficult, think of it as a fun puzzle to solve.
42
Oh, like trying to say rural without twisting my tongue?
43
Exactly.
44
And don't shy away from mistakes.
45
Remember, every mistake is proof that you're trying.
46
That's comforting.
47
But sometimes, failure feels so personal.
48
Like, what if I'm just not good at something?
49
That's where you reframe your thinking.
50
Instead of saying, I can't do this, ask, what can I do to get better?
51
I like that perspective.
52
So, effort plays a big role here?
53
Absolutely.
54
Think of effort like watering a plant.
55
Without it, nothing grows.
56
And what about persistence?
57
How does that fit in?
58
Persistence is key.
59
It's like climbing a mountain.
60
Slow and steady wins the race.
61
You keep going, one step at a time, even when it's hard.
62
So, no shortcuts then?
63
Not if you want real growth.
64
Shortcuts might give you quick results, but they don't build the long-term skills or resilience you need.
65
But isn't it tempting to take the easy way out?
66
Of course it is.
67
But think about it this way.
68
When you take a shortcut, you miss out on valuable lessons along the way.
69
So, the journey is just as important as the destination?
70
Exactly.
71
Imagine learning English just by memorizing words for a test.
72
You might pass the test, but will you be able to have a real conversation?
73
I get it now.
74
It's like building a house without a strong foundation.
75
It might look good for a while, but it won't last.
76
That's a great analogy, Leo.
77
Growth mindset is about taking the time to build that strong foundation.
78
And what about patience?
79
Do you think it's connected to this whole no shortcuts idea?
80
Definitely.
81
Patience teaches you to value the effort you're putting in.
82
It's like planting a tree.
83
You water it every day, but it takes time to grow and bear fruit.
84
Oh, I like that image.
85
So every time I make a mistake, it's like watering my tree a little more?
86
Exactly.
87
Mistakes are part of growth.
88
They show you're trying, and trying is the first step to improving.
89
And when I finally see the fruit, it'll taste even sweeter because I've worked for it.
90
That's the mindset.
91
Growth isn't about perfection.
92
It's about progress.
93
Got it.
94
From now on, no shortcuts for me.
95
I'll water my tree every day, even if it takes time.
96
And trust me, Leo, it'll be worth it.
97
Let's take a closer look at five useful phrases from today's conversation.
98
1. Growth mindset – a belief that abilities and skills can improve through effort and learning.
99
A growth mindset helps you see mistakes as lessons instead of failures.
100
2. Face the music – to confront a difficult situation rather than avoiding it.
101
Instead of avoiding challenges, it's better to face the music and grow from them.
102
A stepping stone, a step or stage that helps you move closer to your goal.
103
Every small success is a stepping stone toward greater achievements.
104
Break the mold, to do something differently and move away from traditional ways.
105
Adopting a growth mindset means breaking the mold of thinking you're just not good enough.
106
5. Go the extra mile – to make extra effort to achieve something.
107
People with a growth mindset are willing to go the extra mile to improve themselves.
108
Now let's dive into some discussion questions.
109
Question one.
110
What's one challenge you faced recently and how did you overcome it?
111
For me, I tried learning a new skill, but it was frustrating at first.
112
Then I reminded myself that it's all part of the process.
113
That's a great example, Gwen.
114
It's inspiring to hear how you stayed motivated.
115
Question two.
116
How can we apply a growth mindset in learning English?
117
I think the key is to focus on progress, not perfection.
118
Celebrate small wins, like mastering a new word or phrase.
119
Absolutely.
120
And don't be afraid to make mistakes.
121
They're stepping stones to improvement.
122
What about you, listeners?
123
How do you approach challenges in learning?
124
Let us know in the comments.
125
So, Gwen, we've talked about growth mindset and overcoming challenges.
126
What's next?
127
Let's talk about feedback.
128
Oh, feedback.
129
You mean like when I tell a joke and you say it's not funny?
130
Well, not quite.
131
Feedback is a tool to improve, not just criticism.
132
I guess that depends on how you take it, right?
133
That's the key.
134
A growth mindset helps us see feedback as an opportunity to grow, not a personal attack.
135
That makes sense.
136
So, how can we take feedback positively?
137
Start by asking yourself, what can I learn from this?
138
Instead of thinking, they're being mean, think, how can this help me improve?
139
I like that.
140
It's like turning lemons into lemonade.
141
That's right.
142
Another thing to keep in mind is surrounding yourself with positivity.
143
You mean like hanging out with people who lift you up?
144
Yes.
145
Whether it's friends, colleagues, or a community, being around people who encourage a growth mindset can make a huge difference.
146
Oh, so it's like planting yourself in good soil to grow.
147
Good comparison, Leo.
148
Okay, but what about practical steps?
149
How do we actually build a growth mindset?
150
Start by trying something new every month.
151
It could be learning a skill, trying a recipe, or even taking on a small project at work.
152
That sounds fun.
153
What else?
154
Ask more questions instead of making negative statements.
155
Instead of saying, I'm not good at this, ask, how can I get better at this?
156
I like that.
157
It's like flipping the script in your head.
158
That's the idea.
159
Finally, keep a journal of what you learn each day.
160
That's great advice, Gwen.
161
I feel like asking questions instead of focusing on what we can't do helps a lot.
162
Yeah, Leo.
163
It's all about shifting your perspective.
164
For example, instead of saying, I can't understand this grammar, you could ask, what steps can I take to learn it better?
165
Oh, like turning a wall into a door.
166
That's powerful.
167
Exactly.
168
It's about seeing challenges as opportunities.
169
What about when things don't work out, though?
170
Like, you try something new and fail.
171
That can be discouraging.
172
That's a big part of a growth mindset, Leo.
173
Instead of seeing failure as the end, you can view it as feedback.
174
So, it's like a roadmap.
175
Failure shows you where to take a better route.
176
For instance, if you try to speak English and make mistakes, that's not failure.
177
It's a sign of progress.
178
Hmm.
179
I guess every mistake is like a stepping stone.
180
That's a great way to think about it.
181
Let's talk more about creating a supportive environment.
182
You mean surrounding yourself with people who inspire you?
183
Exactly.
184
Think about it.
185
If you're around people who encourage you, you're more likely to keep going even when things get tough.
186
So it's like having a cheering squad for your goals.
187
Yes, and it's also important to be that kind of person for others.
188
Like a positivity ripple effect.
189
That's right.
190
The more positive energy you put out, the more you'll get back.
191
And what about those practical steps we mentioned earlier?
192
Let's expand on that.
193
Sure.
194
Here's a simple example.
195
If you're learning a language, set a goal to learn five new words a day.
196
It's small but adds up over time.
197
That's manageable.
198
What else?
199
Another idea is to track your progress.
200
Write down what you learn each day.
201
It helps you see how far you've come.
202
Oh, so it's like giving yourself a high five in writing.
203
Yes.
204
These small steps can make a big difference over time.
205
Listeners, what small steps have helped you grow?
206
Let us know in the comments.
207
Let's pick five phrases from today's discussion that can inspire us.
208
1. Build from the ground up, to start something from the very beginning and develop it step by step.
209
She built her language skills from the ground up by practicing daily.
210
2. Learn through trial and error, to improve by trying different methods and learning from mistakes.
211
He learned to cook through trial and error, testing different recipes until he got it right.
212
3. Take ownership – to accept responsibility for your actions and focus on making progress.
213
Example, taking ownership of her studies helped her improve her grades significantly.
214
4. Keep pushing forward – to continue making progress even when things are difficult.
215
Example, despite the challenges, he kept pushing forward and achieved his goals.
216
5. Shift your perspective.
217
To change the way you view a situation to find new opportunities or solutions.
218
She shifted her perspective and saw challenges as opportunities to grow.
219
Let's start with a question, Gwen.
220
How do you personally step out of your comfort zone?
221
Hmm.
222
I'd say I challenge myself by trying something unfamiliar, like speaking in front of a crowd.
223
It's nerve-wracking but rewarding.
224
Wow, that sounds brave.
225
For me, I try smaller things, like learning to bake a new cake.
226
It's less scary but still makes me step out a little.
227
That's a great start.
228
Taking small steps is still growth.
229
Okay, here's another one for you, Leo.
230
What's one failure you've experienced, and how did you turn it around?
231
I remember burning my first attempt at making bread, but instead of giving up, I tried again the next day.
232
The second loaf was pretty good.
233
That's a fun example.
234
It shows persistence really pays off.
235
And you, Gwen?
236
How do you handle failure?
237
I try to reflect on what went wrong and learn from it.
238
Like when I didn't do well in a presentation, I practiced more and asked for feedback.
239
It made all the difference.
240
That's inspiring.
241
What about you, audience?
242
How do you overcome challenges or failure?
243
Let us know in the comments below.
244
That wraps up today's episode about building a growth mindset.
245
We hope you feel inspired to embrace challenges, learn from feedback, and keep pushing forward.
246
And remember, even small steps can lead to big changes.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
