1
Communicating well
2
with your team is about establishing trust and a foundation for mutual respect.
3
Let's look at some scenarios that show both the wrong and right way to communicate with your team.
4
Really?
5
You're an hour late.
6
Now the post office is closed.
7
I just forgot, okay?
8
You're so irresponsible.
9
What's wrong with you?
10
I just forgot, okay?
11
You're grounded.
12
You're so unfair.
13
The father was worried and scared that something had happened to his son.
14
That fear and anger was directed toward his teen in an unproductive way.
15
It's okay to be upset in this situation, but dumping those feelings on his son won't help him from being late in the future.
16
For a more productive conversation, frame the exchange with I statements that explain reasoning and fosters a two-way communication.
17
Hey, son.
18
Hey.
19
I was worried about you.
20
We agreed that you'd be home an hour ago, since I needed to use the car.
21
When I didn't hear from you, I thought something bad might have happened.
22
Sorry, I was at Sean's house.
23
We were all hanging out, and I didn't realize that it was so late until I got in the car to come home and sold the time.
24
Listen, I'm glad you're okay, but why didn't you call when you saw what time it was?
25
I don't know.
26
I guess that I knew I messed up.
27
Yeah, it's human to lose track of time, especially when you're having fun.
28
Mistakes happen, but part of growing up is keeping your agreements.
29
I need to know that if we agree on driving privileges and a time that you have to be home, you're gonna stick to it.
30
You get that, right?
31
So, since you were late, your weekday curfew is going to be 6 o'clock for the next month.
32
Really?
33
A whole month?
34
If you can show that you can come home on time, we can talk about moving it back to 7 o'clock.
35
Agreed?
36
Agreed.
37
Look, it's really important that you don't hide your mistakes from me.
38
And hey, I don't expect you to be perfect, but I can't help you if you don't communicate with me.
39
Owning up to your mistakes shows that you're responsible, but hiding them, trying to avoid the consequences,
40
that shows me you're not being responsible.
41
Make sense?
42
I get it.
43
Hey, is there anything else you want to talk about?
44
Actually, yeah.
45
The father used I statements to draw his son's attention to the fact that there are consequences for his actions.
46
And this opened the door for his son to share his other concerns.
47
Everyone else gets to stay out later, how come my curfew is only 7?
48
Okay, some of your friends may stay out later than you do.
49
And others probably come home earlier.
50
7 o'clock on a weeknight works well because you usually have homework to do.
51
And you have to get up really early for school.
52
If you get in late, then you're up even later doing homework.
53
It's hard for you to get up in the morning, and then you're all cranky.
54
You're dead, really?
55
You make it sound like I'm a baby.
56
All cranky.
57
I'm sorry, cranky was a poor choice of words.
58
I shouldn't have said that.
59
What I'm trying to say is that we all need enough sleep to stay healthy.
60
The curfew is only there to keep you safe and healthy, not to control your personal life.
61
If there's a specific event that you want to stay out later for, we can discuss that on a case-by-case basis.
62
That's why your weekday curfew is 7 o'clock.
63
The father communicated to his son that rules are in place for safety and not control.
64
House rules work best when teens understand why the rules are in place, not just that rules exist and they must comply with them.
65
The father did call his son cranky, which wasn't the best choice of words,
66
and his son took The father recovered by acknowledging his mistake and also modeled taking responsibility for his actions.
67
Here's another example.
68
See you later!
69
Where are you going?
70
I'm going to the mall with Michael.
71
Didn't Michael just get his license?
72
No way!
73
You are not going anywhere!
74
I have no life.
75
Help your teen understand that the rules are in place for safety and not control and not control.
76
See you later!
77
Where are you going?
78
I'm going to the mall with Michael.
79
Come here, please.
80
I didn't know Michael got his license.
81
When did he take his test at the DMV?
82
A few weeks ago.
83
Gotta go, he's waiting.
84
Ho ho ho, hold on a second.
85
I thought we had agreed that you wouldn't ride with a newly licensed driver.
86
Remember, it's the law in our state.
87
I'd be worried you'd get into an accident with an inexperienced driver.
88
Mom, he's really smart and I know he is a good driver.
89
I'm sure he will be.
90
Once he gets a little more experience.
91
Until then, no riding with him.
92
The state has laws like this for a reason.
93
It's unsafe.
94
I need to make sure that our family follows the law, and so do you.
95
If you get into that car, that means your friend is breaking the law.
96
He could get into a lot of trouble, and you both could get hurt.
97
How about I drive you both to the mall?
98
No way, Mom.
99
That's too embarrassing.
100
Look, I'll talk to him.
101
Maybe we can just hang out here, okay?
102
That sounds like a good idea.
103
And later tonight, I'd like for us to talk some more about this.
104
I need to know that you're going to follow the law and rules all of the time.
105
Even when I'm not around.
106
I need to know that I can trust you, honey.
107
Yeah, I know.
108
These are just some examples based on decades of research to help you think about how parents may sound to teens.
109
Your family may look and interact differently than what was displayed in the video.
110
Take the guidance from the scenarios and make them your own.
111
No one knows your children and family better than you do.

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。
