Okay, let's start!

Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel,
3
where learning English is easy and fun.
4
I'm Emily.
5
Hello Emily.
6
It is so good to be here again,
7
and I am very happy to talk to you today.
8
How are you doing?
9
I am doing great, Paul.
10
I am very excited because today we are talking about something that helps every student.
11
We are talking about the growth mindset.
12
That is a fantastic topic.
13
Many people think they are born with a certain level of intelligence and they can never change it.
14
But that is not true at all.
15
You are so right, Paul.
16
A growth mindset means you believe you can learn anything if you try.
17
It's like a small plant that grows every day with water and sun.
18
Exactly.
19
It is the idea that our brain is like a muscle.
20
If we exercise it, it gets stronger.
21
I love that idea.
22
When I was younger, I thought I was bad at math.
23
I told myself, Emily, you are just not a math person.
24
That's a fixed mindset.
25
I understand that feeling.
26
A fixed mindset is like a closed door.
27
You say, I can't do this, and you stop trying.
28
It's very sad because you have so much potential.
29
But a growth mindset opens the door.
30
Instead of saying, I can't do this,
31
you say, I can't do this yet.
32
That one little word changes everything.
33
Yet is a very powerful word in English.
34
It means that success is coming in the future.
35
You are on a journey and you are moving forward every single day.
36
Yes.
37
For our listeners, if you feel like you can't speak English well, just add yet.
38
Say, I don't speak perfect English yet.
39
Doesn't that feel better?
40
It feels much better.
41
It takes the pressure away.
42
We need to have patience with ourselves.
43
Growth takes time, just like a tree doesn't grow in one night.
44
That is a great point, Paul.
45
Sometimes students want to be perfect in one week.
46
But progress is better than perfection.
47
We must celebrate the small steps.
48
I agree completely.
49
In my life, I try to focus on being a little better than I was yesterday.
50
It's about discipline and having a good heart for the process.
51
So, Paul, why do you think some people learn faster than others?
52
Is it because they're smarter,
53
or is it because of their mindset?
54
That is a great question.
55
I think people who learn fast are usually people who are not afraid of challenges.
56
They see a difficult task as a chance to grow,
57
not a reason to quit.
58
Wow, that is so true.
59
When I see a long,
60
difficult word in English, I feel a bit nervous.
61
But then I think, if I learn this word,
62
I will be smarter than before.
63
That is the spirit.
64
When we face a challenge,
65
our brain creates new connections.
66
It's like building a bridge.
67
Every time you practice, the bridge gets stronger.
68
I often tell my students that mistakes are actually good things,
69
but many people feel ashamed when they make a mistake.
70
How can we change that feeling?
71
We must be humble.
72
Humility is knowing that we don't know everything.
73
When we make a mistake,
74
it is just a sign that we are trying something new.
75
Yes, exactly.
76
I like to say mistakes are proof that you are trying.
77
If you never make a mistake,
78
maybe you are not challenging yourself enough.
79
That is very wise.
80
Imagine a baby learning to walk.
81
The baby falls down many times,
82
but the baby never says,
83
well, I guess walking is not for me.
84
That would be very funny.
85
The baby She just gets up and tries again.
86
We need to be like that baby when we study English grammar or pronunciation.
87
We really do.
88
We need to have perseverance.
89
That means you keep going even when things are difficult.
90
It's a very important quality for success in life.
91
It is about being kind to yourself, too.
92
If a friend makes a mistake,
93
you don't shout at them.
94
You say, it's okay.
95
Try again.
96
We should talk to ourselves like a friend.
97
I love that.
98
Instead of saying, I'm so stupid,
99
say, I'm learning something new and it's okay to take my time.
100
Positive words change our energy.
101
Let's talk about talent.
102
Some people say, oh, she has a talent for languages.
103
Does talent matter more than hard work?
104
Talent is like a gift,
105
but a gift is useless if you don't use it.
106
Hard work and consistency are much more important.
107
A person with less talent but more discipline will win.
108
That is very encouraging.
109
It means that everyone listening right now can become fluent.
110
You don't need a special English brain.
111
You just need to keep showing up.
112
Exactly.
113
It's about the power of practice.
114
If you practice for 15 minutes every day,
115
you will see a huge difference after one year.
116
Consistency is the key.
117
But Paul, sometimes people say,
118
I'm too old to learn.
119
Is that part of a fixed mindset?
120
Oh, definitely.
121
That is a very common fixed mindset thought.
122
Your brain can learn at any age.
123
It might be a bit different,
124
but the capacity to grow is always there.
125
Yes.
126
I have students who are 70 years old and they are doing amazing.
127
They have so much joy because they are finally learning something they always wanted.
128
That is beautiful.
129
It shows that learning has no age limit.
130
It is all about your attitude.
131
If you believe you can learn,
132
your brain will follow your belief.
133
If you are enjoying this conversation,
134
don't forget to like the video,
135
subscribe to the channel, and share it with a friend who is learning English.
136
Yes, we love having you here with us.
137
If you are still listening, comment GROWTH below.
138
We want to see who is ready to grow.
139
I can't wait to see the comments.
140
Now, Paul, let's talk about how to change our thoughts.
141
How can we stop the fixed mindset voice in our heads?
142
The first step is to listen to that voice.
143
When you hear yourself say,
144
I am not good at this, stop for a second.
145
Recognize that it is just a thought, not the truth.
146
And then we can replace it.
147
If my brain says, this grammar is too hard,
148
I can say, this grammar is a puzzle,
149
and I'm learning how to solve it.
150
I like that.
151
It makes it feel like a game.
152
Instead of, I failed the test,
153
you can say, I learned what I need to study more.
154
It's a shift in perspective.
155
It's about being curious instead of being judgmental.
156
When I make a mistake in a conversation,
157
I try to think, oh, that's interesting.
158
Why did I say that?
159
That curiosity is very helpful.
160
It takes the pain away from the error.
161
You are like a scientist studying your own progress.
162
You are looking for data, not for failure.
163
That's a great way to put it.
164
Paul, you mentioned discipline earlier.
165
How does discipline help our mindset,
166
when we feel tired or bored?
167
Discipline is doing what you need to do even when you don't feel like it.
168
When we have a purpose,
169
like helping our family or getting a better job, discipline becomes easier.
170
So having a why is important.
171
My why is that I want to connect with people from all over the world.
172
That makes me want to learn and grow every day.
173
That is a beautiful purpose.
174
When your purpose is about others and about being a better person,
175
you find a lot of strength.
176
You don't give up easily.
177
What about the people around us?
178
Does our environment affect our growth mindset?
179
Absolutely.
180
If you are around people who always complain and say life is hard,
181
it is difficult to grow.
182
You need to find people who encourage you.
183
That is why our community here is so great.
184
We are all here to support each other.
185
We We want to see everyone succeed in their English journey.
186
Yes.
187
Surrounding yourself with positive influences is like putting your plant in good soil.
188
You will grow much faster and much taller.
189
Sometimes I feel like I am not improving at all.
190
I look back at my notes from last month,
191
and I feel like I am in the same place.
192
Is that normal?
193
It is very normal.
194
Progress is not a straight line.
195
Sometimes you go up.
196
Sometimes you stay flat for a while.
197
But as long as you don't stop, you are still moving.
198
That is very comforting to hear.
199
I call those flat moments plateaus.
200
It feels like nothing is happening,
201
but your brain is actually organizing the information.
202
Exactly.
203
It's like a building.
204
You don't see the progress when they're working on the foundation underground,
205
but it's the most important part.
206
Wow.
207
I never thought of it that way.
208
The underground work is the hard study and the listening practice that we do every day.
209
Yes.
210
And one day, suddenly, you will realize you can understand a movie or have a conversation without thinking too much.
211
That's when the building appears.
212
That is the best feeling in the world.
213
It makes all the hard work worth it.
214
We just have to trust the process and have faith in ourselves.
215
Having faith is very important.
216
You have to believe that the seeds you are planting today will become flowers tomorrow.
217
You just need to keep watering them.
218
So, for our listeners who want to start today,
219
what is one simple thing they can do to practice a growth mindset?
220
I suggest writing down one fixed thought they have.
221
For example, I will never understand phrasal verbs.
222
Then cross it out and write the growth version.
223
Oh, like, I'm learning phrasal verbs slowly but surely,
224
or I'm getting better at phrasal verbs every time I use them.
225
Yes, put that paper on your wall or your mirror and read the growth version every morning.
226
It sounds simple, but it really changes how your brain works.
227
That is a powerful exercise.
228
I will do that too.
229
I want to grow in my patience.
230
I will write, I am becoming a more patient person every day.
231
That is a great one.
232
And I will write, I am learning to listen better to the people I love.
233
We can all grow in many ways, not just in English.
234
That is so true.
235
A growth mindset helps in your career,
236
in your relationships, and in your health.
237
It is a way of living life with hope.
238
Hope is a very strong word.
239
It means looking at the future with a smile.
240
With a growth mindset, the future is always full of possibilities.
241
I love that.
242
The future is full of possibilities.
243
That is a great phrase for our students to remember.
244
It really is.
245
Even if today was a hard day for your English studies,
246
tomorrow is a new chance to try again.
247
The sun always rises.
248
Paul, do you have any stories of when you had to use a growth mindset?
249
Maybe something that was very difficult for you?
250
Hmm, let me think.
251
Yes, when I first started public speaking, I was terrified.
252
My hands were shaking and I forgot my words.
253
I felt like a failure.
254
Oh no, what did you do?
255
Did you want to quit?
256
I did want to quit.
257
I told myself, Paul, you are not a speaker.
258
Stop doing this.
259
But then I remembered that everyone starts at the beginning.
260
Yes, even the best speakers were beginners once.
261
Exactly.
262
So I decided to treat every speech like a lesson.
263
I watched videos of myself,
264
and instead of being angry,
265
I looked for one thing to improve next time.
266
That is the perfect example of a growth mindset.
267
You analyzed your mistakes without destroying yourself emotionally.
268
You used them to get better.
269
It took time, but now I actually enjoy speaking.
270
If I had stayed in my fixed mindset,
271
I would have missed so many amazing opportunities to help people.
272
That is so inspiring, Paul.
273
It shows that our weaknesses can actually become our strengths if we have the right attitude.
274
They really can.
275
It just takes courage to be a beginner.
276
Many people are afraid to look silly or stupid,
277
so they never try anything new.
278
We must lose the fear of looking silly.
279
When I speak a new language,
280
I know I sound a bit funny sometimes,
281
but I just laugh and keep talking.
282
That is the best way to do it.
283
A sense of humor is a great tool for growth.
284
If you can laugh at your mistakes,
285
they lose their power over you.
286
Yes.
287
Oops, I said the wrong word.
288
How funny.
289
And then you move on.
290
It is much better than being stressed and worried all the time.
291
Stress kills learning.
292
When we are stressed, our brain closes.
293
When we are relaxed and happy, we learn much faster.
294
So, have fun with your English.
295
That is our main goal here at Mr. English Channel.
296
We want you to enjoy the journey.
297
is a gift, not a punishment.
298
Very well said, Emily.
299
It is a privilege to be able to learn and expand our minds.
300
We should be thankful for every new word we learn.
301
I am thankful for this conversation.
302
I feel very motivated now.
303
I hope our listeners feel the same way too.
304
I'm sure they do.
305
You all have the power to change your mindset.
306
You are capable, you are strong, and you are growing.
307
Before we go, let's review a few growth phrases our listeners can use.
308
Paul, can you give us one?
309
Sure.
310
Instead of, this is too hard,
311
say, this may take some time and effort.
312
Good one.
313
And instead of, I made a mistake,
314
say, mistakes help me learn.
315
Great.
316
How about this one?
317
Instead of, I'm not good at this,
318
say, I am training my brain to do this.
319
I love that.
320
Training my brain.
321
It makes us sound like athletes.
322
We are English athletes.
323
We practice every day to become better and stronger.
324
I am going to use that from now on.
325
I am an English athlete.
326
It gives me so much confidence.
327
It should.
328
You are doing something amazing.
329
Learning a second language is a big challenge and you should be proud of yourself.
330
We are very proud of all of you.
331
Remember, don't compare your Chapter 1 to someone else's Chapter 20.
332
Your journey is unique.
333
That is very important.
334
Focus on your own progress.
335
Be patient, be consistent, and keep that growth mindset shining bright.
336
Well, that is all for today's episode.
337
Thank you so much for listening and for being part of our English family.
338
It was a pleasure as always.
339
Don't forget to practice what we talked about today.
340
You can do it.
341
Yes.
342

347
Bye-bye, everyone.
348
Goodbye.

なぜこの動画で話す練習をするのか？
この動画「How to Learn English with a Growth Mindset」を使って話す練習をする理由は、視聴者が成長マインドセットを持つことで、自信を持って英語を話せるようになるからです。生徒たちは、このコンセプトを通じて、自己成長の可能性を理解し、失敗を恐れずに挑戦することの大切さを学びます。たとえば、「私はまだ英語が上手ではない」というフレーズを使うようにすることで、未来に向けた前向きな姿勢を育むことができます。このように、YouTubeで英語学習を実践することで、話すことへの抵抗感を減らし、楽しく学べる環境を提供します。
文法と表現の文脈
動画内では、以下の重要な文法構造と表現が使われています：
- 「yet」を使った文 - 「私はまだ英語を話せません」という表現を通じて、成長の可能性を示します。「yet」は、まだ達成していないが、将来的には可能性があることを意味します。
- 「I can’t do this yet」と言う表現 - 自分に対して前向きな言葉をかけることで、自信をもたらします。このような表現を使って、自己肯定感を高めることが重要です。
- 「progress is better than perfection」というフレーズ - 完璧を目指すことよりも、進歩を大切にすることを教えています。これにより、学習者はリラックスして学ぶことができます。
一般的な発音の罠
動画での会話には、新しい単語や音が含まれており、発音を練習する際に注意が必要です。特に「growth mindset」や「patience」といった単語は、正しく発音することが難しいかもしれません。これらの言葉を学ぶときは、繰り返し練習することが重要です。また、会話のリズムやイントネーションも重要な要素です。shadow speakやshadowing siteを活用して、これらの発音を練習することで、自然な英語が身につきます。
この成長マインドセットに基づいた英語学習のアプローチは、他の学習者と一緒に英語を話す際にも役立ちます。成果を焦らず、少しずつ進んでいくことを楽しむ心を持ちましょう。
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。
