シャドーイング練習: Make Body Language Your Superpower - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ
レッスンを作成中...
1
What makes one an exceptional presenter?
2
Is it flashy visuals?
3
Is it the tone of voice?
4
Is it the actual message or content?
5
Or does it have something to do with body language, our gestures, and our stance?
6
Today we want to talk to you about this latter point.
7
How do we use our body effectively to communicate our message.
8
Because we have so many great ideas here, but if they remain in our head, don't actually link up with the audience, our message will not have derived.
9
Our message will not have resonated with the audience.
10
So body language plays a powerful role in how we communicate.
11
And unfortunately, body language can also distract.
12
We've seen this clip before of Michael Bay.
13
He speaks, the teleprompter, he loses sight of what's happening, the teleprompter doesn't sync up, and he struggles.
14
And all you see is his body moving around, and he's nervous.
15
He's exuding it.
16
So I want to give some color commentary as we rewatch as a class what is happening.
17
So his stance at the beginning, it's OK, but his hands, he's meshing them.
18
And now he's starting to turn from the audience.
19
Again, his hands are clasped.
20
He's looking a bit down, not at all of you, the audience, and he spins.
21
He shows his back to the audience.
22
And he can't regain composure.
23
He's swaying back and forth.
24
He's looking down.
25
He's avoiding the audience.
26
His nerves are coming out.
27
Again, his hands, and now I think he's looking at the back of the stage.
28
That's the exact opposite place from where you want to actually look.
29
He's incredibly nervous, and now he exits stage.
30
We all want to avoid our own Michael Bay moments when we communicate.
31
The last thing we want at a startup pitch or meeting is to have that happen, is to have the body language take over from the message.
32
If we lose sight of what our body is doing, all people can pay attention to is the body itself, right?
33
It'll take over.
34
So that comes down to not only can it distract, but the body language is your superhero, right?
35
that it can change, it's your superpower.
36
Sorry, not a superhero.
37
You're the superhero.
38
But it's your superpower in the sense that we can utilize it to enhance and communicate with every person in the audience.
39
We want to talk about that today from three vantage points.
40
Colin is going to get us started in talking about how posture breeds success.
41
Jung Joon is then going to talk about how gestures to strengthen your message.
42
Finally, Jennifer is going to close us out with how we think about the body posture of you, the audience, and how to interact with that.
43
Colin, take us away.
44
Communication begins before you even open your mouth to speak.
45
Your audience's first impression of you is your posture and your position.
46
And so it's important to know both how to stand as well as where to stand.
47
And perhaps it's fairly obvious, but you should stand facing the people you're talking to.
48
Don't stand facing your visuals and turning your back to the audience.
49
That's not what we want to do.
50
We can't communicate that way.
51
It's also important to know where you're standing in the room.
52
A position of strength in this room is somewhere in this center box.
53
As long as you're moving around in the center, you're doing pretty well.
54
Where you don't want to be is off in the corner cowering or especially in front of any distractions.
55
And this, this room is pretty good.
56
It doesn't have that many distractions.
57
But there is a window.
58
And outside this window, there are cars, there are buses, there are bikers.
59
And when I was standing over there, probably about half of you could see in your peripheral vision outside the window.
60
And if a car were to drive by, your instinct, your reaction, would be to look out the window,
61
and that would break your concentration and our conversation.
62
And we don't want that either.
63
And now that you know where to stand, it's important to know how to stand.
64
So we're going to demonstrate a few positions, a few bad positions, that we've seen from us and some of you guys,
65
and even from the presentations earlier today, that you shouldn't do.
66
And the first one is hands in your pockets.
67
This comes off as nonchalant.
68
Your shoulders tend to roll forwards.
69
And it's very difficult to convey a strong message from this position.
70
The second one is hands on your hips.
71
When your hands are on your hips, you tend to look overbearing and powerful.
72
And the third one is the fig leaf.
73
This is where you're protecting your family jewels with your hands.
74
And while it also looks timid, it's especially bad when you decide to gesture from this position.
75
I want to show you something!
76
You look like you're flashing the audience, and that's not a good thing.
77
So how should you stand?
78
And if I could actually get all of you to stand, I'll lead you through a short demonstration on how to find your base posture.
79
So once you've stood, be mindful of the people next to you, and place your feet hip-width apart.
80
Close your eyes and look up towards the ceiling, and lift your hands above your head.
81
Get a good stretch underneath your shoulders and let your arms drop to the side.
82
When you open your eyes, look down.
83
This is your base posture.
84
Thank you very much for participating.
85
You guys can sit down now.
86
Now that you've found your base posture, this is where you should gesture from and it's where you should return to when you're finished gesturing.
87
It may not feel the most comfortable, but it looks the most comfortable to your audience.
88
Remember that your posture and position are the audience's first impression of you.
89
But now that you know how to stand still, it's time to learn how to move.
90
Gestures are important because it helps you communicate them.
91
For example, if you use gestures, the audience remembers twice as much.
92
It also helps you, the future speakers too, because it helps your memory when you speak.
93
Also, beside the transition, your hand and arm movement is the biggest movement that the audience can see.
94
You can either use it wisely or waste it on random and distracting gestures.
95
I'm going to show you three types of gestures.
96
The give, the show, and the chop.
97
Here's an example.
98
This quarter at the GSB, I went to this communications class.
99
It was so great.
100
I mean, you could feel that your skills are improved.
101
I think this was the best class I've ever taken.
102
Let's rewind and see what happened.
103
The give.
104
This quarter at the GSB, I went to this communications class.
105
So this gesture is used to give the audience the facts or the options.
106
Remember to have your palms up, not down.
107
We'll get to that in a minute.
108
The show.
109
I mean, you could feel such a skills are improving.
110
This kind of gesture has the largest variety, and your imagination is the limit.
111
Just remember that the gesture and the message has to match.
112
For example, you can't say, profits are rising with a gesture like this.
113
And so, congruency and creativity.
114
The chop.
115
I think this was the best class I've ever taken.
116
So this gesture is used to deliver strong opinion.
117
You can either use it one hand or you can use both hands.
118
You can use both hands and do a larger chop, which will deliver a stronger message.
119
So next time when you do gestures, think about these three types and plan ahead.
120
Three types is the give, the show, and the chop.
121
HUAH!
122
I bet everyone in the room is going to remember this.
123
Dress just work.
124
That's the message.
125
Another subject is about having your palms up.
126
So I'll give you an example.
127
People on the right, please rise and move to the left.
128
I'll do a slightly different list.
129
People on the left, right, please rise and move to the left.
130
One more time.
131
People on the right, please rise and move to the left.
132
Do you see the difference?
133
Which one do you think would make more people move?
134
The first one, yes.
135
According to study, if you have your palms up, 84% of the audience complies.
136
If you have your palms down, 52%.
137
If you have your fingers, 28%.
138
Never use your fingers at your audience.
139
It looks just arrogant, and only politicians use that.
140
Clinton used it.
141
I did not have sexual relations with that moment.
142
It looks bad back then, looks bad now.
143
So never use it.
144
And last but not least, avoid the T-Rex gestures.
145
For example, people on the right, please rise and move to the left.
146
No matter what you do right, I mean it looks silly, so loosen up everybody.
147
Always remember that gestures are there for you and the audience to make a deeper connection.
148
So while we've talked about the audience, now it's time to focus on you, the audience.
149
As Zhang Jun and Colin and Matt described, we've been focusing on the body language of the speaker.
150
But let's not forget who's the real hero here.
151
As we learned in our first week of class, it's not me, the speaker, it's you, the audience.
152
But what happens when the audience doesn't realize that they are on this hero's journey.
153
Have you ever seen an audience that looks like this?
154
Have you ever been that audience?
155
It's okay, we all have.
156
Whether we're playing on our phones, falling asleep and nodding off, looking at the clock, and calculating, can we make an escape from this room?
157
We've all done it.
158
But the thing is, it's the speaker's responsibility to understand what's going on with their audience.
159
And body language is a powerful way to assess that.
160
As a speaker, we can be so focused on our own body language
161
that we never even notice what the audience is doing.
162
And it's important to change that.
163
So I want to share three strategies for how you can engage with your audience better by developing more observational skills.
164
So first of all, absolutely be using the gestures and body language tools that we've talked about today
165
and over the course of the quarter.
166
But the second thing is to notice.
167
Of course you're going to be looking for eye contact, but look beyond it.
168
Look at how your audience members are sitting.
169
Are they fidgeting?
170
Are they moving?
171
Are they leaning forward, looking engaged, and taking notes?
172
Or are they zoning out?
173
If your body language, your eye contact, and your efforts at being compelling are not working, then you can go deeper.
174
You can try to surprise the audience with a question or use some humor.
175
Or you can disrupt the audience.
176
As students, we hate being cold called, but we know it's effective, right?
177
Jason, what's your favorite color?
178
It's blue.
179
OK, very good.
180
You got that one.
181
As we all know, it's the fastest way to re-engage with a conversation with the speaker.
182
So don't be afraid to use it.
183
It's so important to keep your audience on track, because they're the hero and it's their journey.
184
Remember how Nancy Duarte told us that we are the Yoda to the Luke Skywalker.
185
And our job as the speaker is to keep the hero on their journey.
186
With that in mind, I think we've talked about three concepts
187
that really remind each of us about how body language is your superpower.
188
Use it.
189
Become that superpower.
190
Become that superhero.
191
And we welcome any questions you have on how to stand strong, gesture effectively, and engage the audience.
192
Thank you.

この動画で身につけるスピーキングスキル
「ボディーランゲージを超能力に変える」というテーマの動画から、人前で話すときの姿勢やジェスチャーの使い方、聴衆との視線のやりとり、緊張を隠すためのポーズといった、実践的なスピーキングスキルを学べます。特に、「メッセージが伝わるためにはボディーランゲージが重要」という考え方は、英語でプレゼンテーションをする際にも大いに役立ちます。
聞き取りに注意すべき発音のポイント
動画の会話では、連結発音や弱め方がよく使われています。例えば、「does it have」は「dʌzɪt hæv」ではなく「dʌzɪt hæv」と連結され、「what's happening」は「wɑːts hæpənɪŋ」となります。また、「because we have」の「because」は「bɪˈkəz」と弱く発音され、「so many great ideas」の「so」は「səʊ」ではなく「sə」と短くなります。これらの発音を覚えることで、英語の発音を良くするだけでなく、リスニング力も向上します。
ネイティブのように話すコツ
ネイティブスピーカーのリズムとストレスを真似るには、英語シャドーイング（shadow speak）が効果的です。動画の中で話者が「body language plays a powerful role」と言うとき、「powerful」にストレスが置かれ、「role」は軽く発音されます。また、「we can utilize it to enhance」の「utilize」は「juːtəlaɪz」とゆっくりと、「enhance」は「ɪnˈhæns」と強調されます。このようなリズムを捉えて繰り返し練習することで、自然な英語の話し方が身につきます。YouTubeで英語学習をする際は、この動画を使ってシャドーイングを試してみてください。
ボディーランゲージと発音、リズムを組み合わせることで、英語でのコミュニケーションがより効果的になります。ぜひ動画を何度も見て、実践してみてください。
この動画の文法
話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。
| 文型 | 動画での表現 |
|---|---|
| 現在完了形 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去の出来事が今も関係している | We've seen · you've stood · you've found |
| 受動態 be + 過去分詞 — 誰がするかより、何が起きるかに焦点を当てる | are clasped · are improved |
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。
