Today, you're going to learn how to introduce yourself naturally in English.
2
Hi, my name is Volka.
3
Nice to meet you, Volka.
4
But I don't want you to just sit there and listen to me teach you.
5
You're actually going to practice having real conversations with me.
6
I'll ask you questions, you'll answer out loud, and then we'll switch roles.
7
So you also practice asking questions.
8
By the end of this video, you should be able to meet someone for the first time, introduce yourself, ask them questions, and keep the conversation going naturally.
9
But before I start, I will ask you three questions.
10
What's your name and where are you from?
11
What do you do?
12
Tell me something interesting about yourself.
13
Remember your answers
14
because I'm going to ask you the exact same questions at the end of this video
15
and we'll see how much your answers improved.
16
Without further ado, let's get started.
17
Part one, meeting someone for the first time.
18
Imagine we just met at a party.
19
You read the yellow text on screen.
20
Hey, I don't think we've met before.
21
I'm Volka.
22
nice to meet you too now let's do it again
23
but this time use your real name hey i don't think we've met before i'm volka
24
now switch roles so you go first
25
hey i'm volka nice to meet you too part two where are you from
26
so where are you from oh nice do you still live there now use your real information where are you from
27
and where do you live now now you ask me i'm from canada
28
no i spend a lot of time traveling and living in different countries
29
notice that response real conversations aren't just questions
30
and answers we react to what other people say by saying things like oh nice
31
or that's cool or oh really just expressions like
32
that to show you're interested there are many different expressions
33
and words you can use to show that you're actively listening to what
34
that other person is saying and this just shows you're engaged in the conversation and you're not daydreaming about something else.
35
Part three, what do you do?
36
This usually means what do you study or what's your job?
37
So let's practice it.
38
So, what do you do?
39
Oh cool, what kind of company do you work for? Do you enjoy it?
40
Now answer with your own information.
41
What do you do? Do you enjoy it?
42
Now you ask the questions.
43
I make videos and teach English online.
44
for over one year now yes i love it part four interests
45
and hobbies a very useful question is what do you like
46
doing in your free time you can also ask what do you like doing for fun or what are you into?
47
Now let's practice.
48
What do you like doing in your free time?
49
Oh nice, what kind of photography?
50
That's very cool.
51
Now use your real answer.
52
What do you like doing in your free time? time.
53
Now it's your turn to ask me questions.
54
I love traveling, trying new foods,
55
and learning languages I've been learning
56
Spanish for over a year now now
57
if you want to keep the conversation flowing naturally you need to ask something back
58
if someone asks you where are you from and you just answer Japan,
59
then the conversation becomes awkward and kind of ends.
60
But if you said I'm from Japan, where are you from?
61
Then it gives them a question in return and keeps the conversation flowing naturally.
62
Let's practice.
63
Where are you from?
64
I'm from Canada.
65
What do you do?
66
I teach English.
67
What do you like doing in your free time?
68
So that one habit can immediately make your conversations more natural.
69
Just ask something in return it's very simple
70
if someone asks oh where are you from you can answer
71
and then say at the end what about you or
72
if someone asks what is your job you can answer by telling them your job
73
and then say what about you
74
or what do you do it's very easy to keep the conversation going
75
when you ask them the same thing in return now let's
76
practice having a real conversation with my app hi it's nice to meet you could you introduce yourself
77
and tell me a little about what you do hi my name is volka
78
and i teach english online hi volka that's great where are you from

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。
