Some students think that speaking English fluently means that a person is able to speak for a long time in English, but that's not true.

Instead, English fluency is all about your ability to organize your thoughts like a native English speaker.

That's right.

No matter what the topic is, you should be able to organize your thoughts in an easy

and clear way so that the person listening to you can understand and also follow along.

So what about relationships?

When you want to speak about relationships, this topic in English, and you want to speak fluently, you need to talk about three specific things.

So we're going to talk about these three things in today's lesson.

I'm teacher Tiffany.

Let's jump right in.

All right, so let's get started.

Step number one, you need to describe the people or person.

Again, remember the topic is relationships.

In order to speak fluently about relationships, you must first start by describing the people or the person.

So let's say you want to talk about your best friend.

You need to give some background information, some background information that will give the listener a better understanding of who your best friend is.

So for example, my best friend, I can tell you a little bit about her.

My best friend and I have been friends since we were in elementary school.

But if I were to describe her to you, I would say she's a shy person, but she loves people.

She also loves sports.

She loves spending time with her family.

And she also loves God.

So what happened?

Now you're getting a better picture in your mind of my friend.

That's what you need to do start off the conversation.

Start talking about the relationship by giving the listener the ability to create a mental picture.

That's what happens when you do step one.

Describe the person.

Tell a little bit more about the person, some details about them, right?

Now, you can do the same thing about a group of people.

Let's say, for example, you want to talk about your classmates or your co -workers, right?

So give some details about your classmates or your co -workers.

Now, I'll pick co -workers right at your job maybe there are a lot of people

but you work with a specific group maybe they're all hard workers maybe they love to laugh

and maybe they also are very dedicated to their job

so again you're giving background information to describe those people

that's step one now step two is also very important you need to give three characteristics of your current relationship.

Now we're connecting you to those people or that person.

So you start talking about your relationship with those individuals.

So for example, I mentioned my best friend, right?

So now I need to tell you about our connection, right?

About our friendship currently.

So I can say we are really focused on trust.

We're focused on dedication

and we're also focused on having fun like we're very honest with each other

and we enjoy having fun so I'm giving you some more details about our relationship

and I can go into more details by telling you some stories about how we laugh

so hard we start crying

or how we spend time together playing basketball even as adults

again what you want to do in step two is give some more information about your connection with this individual

or with those people

and let's say for example you want to talk about your co -workers

now give three characteristics of your relationship with your co -workers

so i can say ah my co -workers

and i we really get along well we enjoy going out to lunch together

and the third thing we enjoy is spending time together on the weekends

so you can see oh even though they're your co -workers

you're very close to them they have become your close friends and And you can see that as a listener,

because I've given you three characteristics of our current relationship, right?

Now, step three is also very important.

In step three, in order to speak fluently about relationships, you need to talk about the future of your relationship,

how you think this relationship will develop as time goes on.

As time goes by, will you get closer? or will you kind of stray away or drift apart?

So for example, I can talk about my best friend.

Now we've been friends since we were in elementary school, but we're still friends now.

And for the future, I can say, oh, when I get married, she's going to be in my wedding.

She is so close to me, I know that I want her to be a part of that special day.

So what's happening?

By me telling you about the future, about the wedding that I'm gonna have and how my best friend is gonna be in the wedding,

you're able to understand the level of my relationship with my best friend.

Makes sense, right?

So again, the third step is so important.

Now with your colleagues, again, I told you in the middle that we hang out after work,

we have lunch together, we're very diligent and dedicated to our assignments.

I can say in the future, even if we work at different companies

and we leave our current company we will still stay in contact

and what am i showing you i'm showing you

that i want to keep this relationship strong with my co -workers it makes sense right

so again speaking english fluently about a relationship it's not about the length of time

that you're speaking for instead it's about including these three parts.

First, describe the people or the person.

Second, describe your current relationship by giving three characteristics.

And third, talk about the future of your relationship.

Now again, when you do these three things, the person listening to you will feel that you are fluent in English

because you were able to explain and describe the relationship in such a very clear and concise way.

The person, the people, describing them.

Second, your current relationship and finally the future of your relationship.

This is what you need to do to speak English fluently and confidently about your relationships.

Now everything I taught you today came from my ebook, How to Pass the IELTS Speaking Exam.

So if you want to learn more you can also check out the ebook

How to Pass the IELTS Speaking Exam.

Thank you so much for joining me.

I am so honored to be your teacher I will talk to you next time

but as always remember to speak English

you still there you know what time it is it's story time hey

I said it's story time all right guys so today I want to tell you about one of my most treasured relationships

That's right, one of my closest friends.

I met her when I was living in South Korea.

Now, she and I have been friends for a long time, but let me kind of tell you about her personality.

100

Let me describe her.

101

You caught that, right?

102

So her name is Catherine.

103

Her English name is Catherine, and Catherine is an extremely hard worker.

104

She's very intelligent, and she also loves her students.

105

So when we were at the same institute, I always heard about how much her students loved her.

106

They would follow her.

107

No matter what class she taught, they would register because they wanted to study with her.

108

She was such an amazing teacher and she's still a really good teacher.

109

Now, for us, we became friends during a teacher's retreat and she and I,

110

we had been working together prior to the retreat, but I say we became friends at the retreat because something happened during that time.

111

So prior to that, again, we were co -workers, you know, we'd have a good time together, go out to eat with other co -workers,

112

but we didn't necessarily have a close like one on one relationship.

113

During the retreat, though, it was myself, Catherine and another one of my friends named Rebecca.

114

She's also Korean.

115

And we were all staying in the same room.

116

So it was a Saturday night and we were just talking about live

117

and different things and it was a great conversation

118

but I just remember us talking about something

119

and then we both started laughing at the same thing

120

now I'm a very fun person I love to laugh I love to spend time with my friends

121

and my family but

122

when we started laughing it's like I saw the the what is the word not the real side

123

but I saw a different side of her that's what happened

124

it went from being co -worker to hey

125

you're a cool person like I could see myself hanging out with you

126

and honestly we laughed so much that night now me

127

and Rebecca were already close

128

and we're still close to this day like I was I

129

helped her in her wedding like I was the translator in Rebecca's wedding

130

so me and Rebecca were already close

131

but then at this point in time me

132

and Catherine suddenly started to get closer

133

and fast forward literally Catherine is one of my closest friends

134

and when I get married I'd like her to be in my wedding too

135

and of course Rebecca you know so here's the thing

136

that one situation we went on

137

that retreat where I actually saw hey she's not just a

138

co -worker she's a good friend like we can have a good time together

139

that was kind of the start of our friendship

140

because we were able to relate to each other and since

141

that time literally I spent time with her husband her daughter I went to their house

142

when I was in Korea and you

143

Even when I failed my exam, you guys remember I told you about failing my Korean exam for my master's degree two times in a row,

144

how difficult that was.

145

And the second time I failed, I, it was very, I was distraught.

146

I didn't know what to do.

147

I felt bad, but I didn't show my emotions.

148

When I went to work, I just kind of kept teaching and she approached me and she said, hey, Tiff, how are you?

149

I said, I'm fine.

150

Everything's okay.

151

And I remember, I literally remember this like it was yesterday,

152

sitting at the desk and I was typing in some grades for my students and she said, Tiff, what happened with the test?

153

And it was like a floodgate opened.

154

Tears just streamed down my face and I was telling her how bad I felt and she just listened.

155

She put her hand on my shoulder and she said, it's okay, it's okay.

156

And I really needed that at that moment because I was in Korea, away from my family.

157

I had a lot of close friends but I didn't necessarily want to cry

158

and say hey I can't believe I didn't pass

159

and I felt bad but I was able to open up to her

160

when she asked me what happened and I realized how special she was to me

161

that I was able to release that showed me

162

that oh this person is super super important to me

163

so yes Catherine and I developed our friendship over time

164

and right now our current relationship we both live in different countries of course

165

and we talk to each other every once in a while

166

because she's busy and I'm busy but our relationship is still very close.

167

So when she messages me, she'll send me maybe a nice piece of art to look at because she likes art as well.

168

Or I'll call her on the phone and we'll talk about her family and what's going on.

169

And we talk also about, you know, God too, because we both love God.

170

So our relationship is really good.

171

And in the future, again, I told you, I do want her to be in my wedding.

172

I really love her and her family and I'm really blessed to have her as a friends.

173

So again, I hope you guys enjoyed this story about how our relationship developed.

174

I'm sure you guys have stories about your own friends and how you guys became friends.

175

Please feel free to share your stories with us in the comment section.

176

Guys, thank you so much for watching.

177

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.
