Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Enjoy English Talks,
2
where every conversation helps you learn.
3
I'm Judy.
4
Hello, Judy.
5
Hello, everyone.
6
I'm Jake.
7
How are you today, Judy?
8
I am great today, thank you.
9
I woke up early this morning,
10
I made some tea, and I sat by the window.
11
Very quiet, very peaceful.
12
That sounds lovely.
13
I love quiet mornings.
14
Yes.
15
And you, Jake?
16
How are you?
17
I'm good, but I have to tell you something funny.
18
Oh, tell me.
19
This morning, I was in the kitchen making breakfast, and I was talking.
20
Talking?
21
To who?
22
To nobody.
23
I was alone.
24
You were talking to yourself?
25
Yes.
26
I was saying things like,
27
Okay, now I need two eggs.
28
Where is the pan?
29
The pan is on the shelf.
30
All in English.
31
Jake, that is actually wonderful.
32
Really?
33
My cat looked at me like I was crazy.
34
Your cat does not understand, but your brain understands.
35
You were practicing English.
36
I was?
37
Yes, and that is exactly what we are talking about today.
38
Oh, what is our topic?
39
Jake, many of our listeners say the same thing.
40
They say, I want to speak English,
41
but I have no one to talk to and I have no time.
42
Yes, I hear that a lot too.
43
No partner, no time, no chance to practice.
44
But what if I told you that you can practice speaking English every single day with only 10 minutes?
45
Only 10 minutes?
46
Really?
47
Yes, 10 minutes a day.
48
That is all you need to start.
49
But can 10 minutes really make a difference?
50
Absolutely.
51
Think about it.
52
10 minutes a day, 7 days a week,
53
that is 70 minutes of speaking practice every week.
54
70 minutes?
55
That is more than one hour.
56
Yes, and most people practice speaking 0 minutes a week,
57
so 10 minutes a day is a huge improvement.
58
That is true.
59
0 to 70.
60
Big change.
61
Today, we have five tips,
62
five easy ways to practice speaking English in just 10 minutes a day.
63
And we will also talk about self-discipline.
64
Self-discipline?
65
Yes.
66
Self-discipline means you do something every day.
67
Even when you are tired,
68
even when you do not feel like it, you do it anyway.
69
Ah, that is hard for me sometimes.
70
It is hard for everyone.
71
But today, we will make it easier.
72
I promise.
73
Okay, I'm excited.
74
Five tips.
75
Let's go.
76
But first, we have a small request.
77
Yes, if you like our podcast,
78
please click the like button.
79
And please subscribe to enjoy English Talks.
80
And share this episode with your friends and family.
81
Thank you.
82
It helps us so much.
83
We love our listeners.
84
Okay, now let's start.
85
So, Jake, the big problem for many learners is this.
86
They study English, they read,
87
they listen, but they never speak.
88
Yes, I know this problem.
89
I read a lot, I listen a lot,
90
but speaking, not so much.
91
And why not?
92
Um, I think I am nervous,
93
and I have no one to practice with.
94
Those are two very common reasons.
95
But here's the truth.
96
You do not need another person to practice speaking.
97
I don't?
98
No, you can practice alone,
99
and you only need 10 minutes.
100
Okay, show me how.
101
Tip number one.
102
The name is talk to yourself.
103
Talk to myself?
104
Like I did this morning with the eggs?
105
Exactly like that.
106
When you're alone, speak English out loud.
107
Say what you were doing,
108
say what you were thinking.
109
Out loud?
110
Not in my head?
111
Not in your head.
112
Out loud.
113
This is very important.
114
Your mouth needs practice.
115
Your tongue needs practice.
116
Your lips need practice.
117
Speaking is physical, like exercise.
118
Oh, I never thought about it that way.
119
Think about a guitar player.
120
They do not just think about music.
121
They move their fingers every day.
122
Speaking English is the same.
123
So my mouth is like a muscle.
124
Yes, and muscles need exercise.
125
When you talk out loud,
126
you train your mouth to make English sounds.
127
Okay, what should I say?
128
Anything.
129
You are cooking, say, I am cutting the tomato.
130
Now I am putting oil in the pan.
131
You are walking, say, I am walking to the bus stop.
132
The weather is nice today.
133
Just describe what I'm doing.
134
Yes, simple sentences, present tense,
135
what you see, what you do, what you feel.
136
Okay, let me try.
137
I am sitting in a chair.
138
I'm talking to Judy.
139
The room is warm.
140
I feel happy.
141
Perfect.
142
That is exactly right.
143
Four sentences.
144
All easy.
145
All real.
146
And nobody needs to hear me.
147
Nobody.
148
Just you and your voice.
149
Do this for two minutes every day.
150
That's a great start.
151
Two minutes of talking to myself.
152
I can do that.
153
Tip 1.
154
Talk to yourself.
155
Use your voice.
156
Train your mouth.
157
Good.
158
Tip number 2.
159
This one is fun.
160
The name is The Mirror Trick.
161
The Mirror Trick.
162
What is that?
163
You stand in front of a mirror and you speak English to yourself in the mirror.
164
Speak to the mirror?
165
Like talking to my face?
166
Yes.
167
You look at yourself and you speak.
168
You say, Hello, my name is Jake.
169
I am learning English.
170
I like coffee and movies.
171
That feels a little strange.
172
It feels strange at first,
173
but it is very powerful.
174
Do you know why?
175
Why?
176
Because when you look in the mirror,
177
you see your mouth, you see your face,
178
you see your eyes, and you become more confident.
179
More confident?
180
Yes.
181
Many learners are afraid to speak because they feel embarrassed.
182
Embarrassed means they feel shy or uncomfortable.
183
Yes, I feel embarrassed sometimes when I speak English.
184
The mirror helps you get used to your own face speaking English.
185
After a few days, it feels normal.
186
And when it feels normal to you,
187
it feels normal to others, too.
188
Oh, I see.
189
I practice being comfortable.
190
Exactly.
191
You practice the feeling, not just the words.
192
And you can also watch your mouth.
193
Are your lips moving enough?
194
Is your mouth open enough?
195
English needs a big, open mouth.
196
A big mouth.
197
Got it.
198
Well, big enough for English sounds.
199
Some sounds need your lips to be round.
200
Some need your tongue to touch your teeth.
201
You can see all of this in the mirror.
202
So the mirror is like a teacher.
203
Yes, a free teacher, in your bathroom, every morning.
204
Let me try.
205
Tomorrow morning I will brush my teeth,
206
and then I will talk to the mirror for two minutes.
207
That is a wonderful plan.
208
Tip two, the mirror trick.
209
Speak, watch, get confident.
210
Very good, Jake.
211
Tip number three.
212
Are you ready?
213
Ready.
214
Tip three is shadow a speaker.
215
Shadow?
216
Like a shadow on the ground?
217
Good connection.
218
A shadow follows you, right?
219
It copies your movement.
220
In the same way, you follow a speaker.
221
You copied your words.
222
I copy what they say?
223
Yes.
224
You listen to English, a podcast,
225
a video, a movie, and you repeat the words right after the speaker,
226
almost at the same time.
227
At the same time?
228
Almost.
229
You hear a sentence and immediately you repeat it,
230
with the same speed, the same sound, the same feeling.
231
Can I try now?
232
Yes, I will say a sentence.
233
You shadow me.
234
Ready?
235
Ready.
236
I love learning new things every day.
237
I love learning new things every day.
238
Very good.
239
Did you notice?
240
You copied my speed, you copied my sound.
241
That is shadowing.
242
Oh, that felt good.
243
Like I was inside the sentence.
244
Yes.
245
Shadowing helps your brain connect listening and speaking.
246
You hear it, you say it, at the same time.
247
So I can do this with any podcast?
248
Any podcast, any video, even our podcast.
249
You can pause, repeat, play again, pause, repeat.
250
I will shadow enjoy English talks.
251
That is a perfect idea.
252
Two minutes of shadowing every day,
253
your pronunciation will improve fast.
254
Pronunciation means how I say the words?
255
Yes, how the words sound when you say them.
256
Shadowing makes your pronunciation much better.
257
Tip 3.
258
Shadow a speaker.
259
Listen, repeat, copy the sound.
260
You got it.
261
Excellent.
262
Tip number 4.
263
The name is Describe Your World.
264
Describe my world.
265
What does that mean?
266
It means look around you and say what you see in English.
267
Like a game?
268
Yes, like a game.
269
Right now, look around this room.
270
What do you see?
271
I see a table, a brown table.
272
There are two cups on the table.
273
One cup is white, one cup is blue.
274
There's a window.
275
The window is big.
276
I can see trees outside.
277
Wonderful.
278
You just practiced seven or eight sentences in about 20 seconds.
279
That was fast.
280
And you can do this anywhere in the kitchen,
281
on the bus, at the supermarket, in the park.
282
At the supermarket?
283
What would I say?
284
You say, I see red apples.
285
There are many bananas.
286
The milk is on the left side.
287
A woman is buying bread.
288
I will look like a strange person talking about bananas in the supermarket.
289
You can say it quietly or in your head,
290
but out loud is always better.
291
Okay, quietly.
292
I will whisper to the bananas.
293
The bananas will not mind.
294
And here's the best part.
295
You do not need to prepare anything.
296
Your world is always there.
297
You just open your eyes and describe it.
298
No books, no apps, no internet.
299
Just my eyes and my mouth.
300
Exactly.
301
Two minutes, look around, describe everything.
302
Colors, shapes, people, actions.
303
A man is walking his dog.
304
The dog is small and white.
305
The sky is cloudy.
306
Perfect example.
307
You are getting very good at this.
308
Tip 4.
309
Describe your world.
310
Look, see, say it in English.
311
Yes, your world is your classroom.
312
And now our last tip.
313
Tip number 5.
314
This is about self-discipline.
315
Ah, the hard part.
316
It does not have to be hard.
317
Tip 5 is use a timer.
318
A timer?
319
Like on my phone?
320
Yes.
321
Set a timer for 10 minutes.
322
And for those 10 minutes, you only speak English.
323
No phone, no social media, no distractions.
324
Just you and English.
325
Only 10 minutes?
326
Only 10 minutes.
327
But they are focused minutes.
328
Focused means all your attention is on one thing.
329
So I am not half watching TV and half studying?
330
No, that does not work.
331
Ten focused minutes is much better than 30 unfocused minutes.
332
And what do I do in those ten minutes?
333
You use the four tips we just learned.
334
Two minutes, talk to yourself.
335
Two minutes, mirror trick.
336
Three minutes, shadow a speaker.
337
Three minutes, describe your world.
338
That is ten minutes.
339
Oh, so I combine all the tips into one session.
340
Yes, one 10-minute session every day.
341
Same time, same place.
342
This is the secret of self-discipline.
343
Same time, same place.
344
Yes.
345
For example, every morning at 7.30 in your bedroom before breakfast,
346
you set the timer, you start.
347
And when the timer rings, you stop.
348
And I do this every single day?
349
Every single day.
350
Even when you are tired,
351
even when you are busy.
352
10 minutes.
353
That is all.
354
But what if I don't feel like it?
355
That is exactly when it matters most.
356
Self-discipline is not about feeling motivated.
357
Self-discipline is about doing it anyway.
358
Doing it anyway, even when I don't want to.
359
Yes.
360
Motivation comes and goes, but discipline stays.
361
Think about brushing your teeth.
362
Do you always feel excited to brush your teeth?
363
No, never, actually.
364
But you do it every day anyway, because it's your routine.
365
English can be the same.
366
My 10-minute English routine.
367
Exactly.
368
After two weeks, it becomes normal.
369
After one month, it becomes automatic.
370
You don't think about it.
371
You just do it.
372
Like a habit.
373
Yes.
374
Self-discipline builds the habit, and the habit builds your English.
375
I like that.
376
Discipline builds the habit.
377
The habit builds the English.
378
And remember, you do not need two hours.
379
You do not need a classroom.
380
You do not need a teacher.
381
Just 10 minutes, a timer, and my voice.
382
That is everything you need.
383
Tip 5.
384
Use a timer.
385
10 focused minutes.
386
Same time, every day.
387
Perfect.
388
You got it, Jake.
389
Okay, let's review our 5 tips.
390
Yes, let's do it.
391

400
Stand in front of a mirror.
401
Speak English.
402
Watch your mouth.
403
Build your confidence.
404
Perfect.
405
Tip three.
406

407
Listen to English.
408
Repeat the words.
409
Copy the speed and the sound.
410
Tip four.
411
Tip four, describe your world.
412
Look around, say what you see, colors, people, actions.
413
Your world is your classroom.
414
And tip five.
415
Tip five, use a timer.
416
Set 10 minutes, same time, same place, every day.
417
Self-discipline builds the habit.
418
You remembered everything, Jake.
419
The tips are easy.
420
Anyone can do them.
421
That's the point.
422
You don't need money.
423
You don't need a teacher.
424
You don't need a partner.
425
You just need your voice and 10 minutes.
426
10 minutes can change your English.
427
Yes.
428
Small daily practice makes big improvement over time.
429
I'm going to start my 10-minute routine tomorrow morning.
430
And I believe every single one of our listeners can do this too.
431
You can do it.
432
We believe in you.
433
Start speaking today.
434
Even one sentence is a great beginning.
435
Well, that's all the time we have for today.

このビデオでスピーキングを練習する理由
このビデオでは、毎日の英語スピーキング練習の重要性について触れています。たった10分間の練習で、自分の英語スピーキング能力を劇的に向上させることができるのです。特に、誰かと話す時間がない人にとって、自分自身と対話をすることが有効です。この方法を通じて、自信を持って英語を話す力を養うことができます。本人が鏡の前で話すことや、日常生活の中で独り言を言うことも、英語のスピーキング練習につながります。これにより、話すことへの抵抗が少なくなり、自然な会話の感覚を養うことができます。
文法と場面における表現
このビデオで使われた主な構文や表現をいくつか分析してみましょう。
- 「I was saying...」 - 過去進行形を使って、自分の行動を説明することで、出来事を具体的に表現しています。
- 「Okay, now I need...」 - シンプルで直接的な表現で、日常的な要望を伝える方法を示しています。
- 「Your brain understands」 - 英語学習における理解力の重要性を強調しており、自己対話が英語のスピーチ力向上にどれほど役立つかを示しています。
- 「I want to speak English」 - 自分の願望をシンプルに表現することで、英語学習者の共通の考えを反映しています。
これらの表現を使って、英語スピーキング練習やshadow speakのテクニックを効果的に発展させましょう。
一般的な発音の罠
ビデオ内で特に難しい発音やアクセントについて触れてみましょう。
- 「pan」 - この語の発音に注意が必要で、特に「a」の音が日本語の「パン」とは異なる点が挙げられます。
- 「shelf」 - 「l」の部分が発音しにくいため、意識的に練習することが大切です。
- 「understand」 - 「under」と「stand」の連結で流暢さを出すことができるので、練習すると良いでしょう。
これらの発音のコツをマスターすることで、IELTS スピーキング対策としても役立ちます。また、shadowspeakのテクニックを利用して、さらに効果的な練習が可能になります。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
