1
The best way to learn English is to use English to learn something that you're genuinely interested in.
2
Use it to learn history, economics, and entertainment to understand how the world is working and how the whole social fabric is built.
3
So, in this video, I will give you three documentaries which are my favorites, and I say they're even better than TV series.
4
Watching this will open up a whole new wave of learning English for you.
5
So, the first one is Explained.
6
It's made by Netflix, and every episode is only about 20 minutes.
7
It's very short.
8
It's not like a traditional documentary where we need to spend one or two hours per episode.
9
Very easy to follow, very clearly explained.
10
The best thing about this documentary is that it covers all kinds of different topics each episode.
11
Esports, K-pop, astrology, the stock market.
12
It includes social economics, politics, entertainment, all kinds of different sectors.
13
It will give you a whole new world view, even if you're still a student or you're trying to build up your perspective on the world.
14
It fills in so many different pieces of knowledge
15
that you need to become a more well-rounded person
16
so i highly recommend explain to everybody whether you're still a
17
student already working as long as you want to learn more about the world expand your knowledge
18
and train english at the same time you should watch this
19
pronunciation in this episode is super clear everything is backed up with evidence and data
20
and you can even use these topics to build a speech
21
the second one is formula one try to survive this one is huge it's
22
so crazy i had absolutely no idea about formula one before
23
i watched this i feel like something very far away from my world.
24
But now, I have a much clearer picture of this whole industry.
25
And it's not just about becoming a Formula 1 fan.
26
Learning about a completely different industry gives you a more complete picture of how the world works.
27
There are multiple seasons.
28
I started from that one in 2019, and every episode hits
29
because it's like a roller coaster formula one is very very
30
unpredictable nobody knows who will win the championship until the very end of the competition
31
and watching this documentary you got to see how this money-consuming it's talent-driven industry actually operates the story is
32
so tight and the plot keeps pulling you in
33
and the best part for learning english is that
34
so many of the drivers and people being interviewed are not originally from english-speaking cultures
35
so you gotta hear all kinds of different accents
36
and it really shows you
37
that accent is not important what matters most is whether you
38
can get your ideas across clearly the third one is oj
39
made in america this is a very very classic case a murder case i'd say
40
and you will not want to stop once you stop watching
41
even though each episode is around one hour the episodes are
42
so tightly connected to each other and you just keep going
43
if you're a big fan of suspense or true crime movies
44
and tv series like me i highly recommend this documentary not only
45
because it's something that really happened many many years ago
46
but also because it gives you a deep look into how american society actually works
47
and you will have so many moments watching this or just stop
48
and reflect so this documentary will give you a huge insight into social problems both historical
49
and current in the us and you'll find yourself reflecting a lot of celebrity culture
50
and how fame operates in that society
51
so what i would just say is beyond just learning english
52
i really want to encourage everybody to watch more documentaries in english it's not
53
because english documentaries are necessarily better than chinese ones that's not the point the point is
54
if you want to learn a language well you need to
55
actually use it to learn things you need to put yourself inside that language from the very beginning

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。
