1
Hi, Mark.
2
How are you today?
3
Hi, Anna.
4
I'm good, thanks.
5
I went out this morning and got lost for a few minutes.
6
Oh, no. Did you have trouble finding your way?
7
Yes.
8
I couldn't find the coffee shop I wanted.
9
I had to ask someone for directions.
10
Well, that's perfect for today's topic, asking for directions.
11
Really?
12
What good timing.
13
Exactly.
14
Today we'll learn how to ask where a place is, how to understand directions, and how to give simple answers.
15
Let's start with some key words you'll need.
16
Left, right, straight, near, far,
17
next to, behind, in front of, opposite.
18
Okay, let me repeat.
19
Left, right, straight, near, far,
20
next to, behind, in front of, opposite.
21
Got it.
22
Perfect.
23
These are very common when you ask for directions.
24
Can we practice how to ask for directions politely? Of course.
25
You can say, excuse me, where is the bank?
26
Or, excuse me, how can I get to the train station.
27
Ah, okay.
28
So, excuse me is important to sound polite.
29
Yes, always start with excuse me.
30
It makes you sound friendly and respectful.
31
Alright, let's try.
32
Excuse me, where is the supermarket?
33
Perfect!
34
And I can answer, it's near the post office, or go straight and turn left.
35
Got it.
36
So if someone tells me go straight, it means walk forward.
37
Exactly.
38
And turn left means go to your left side, turn right means go to your right side.
39
Okay, that's easy to remember.
40
Let's practice a small conversation.
41
I'll be the tourist and you'll give me directions.
42
Alright, let's do it.
43
Excuse me, where is the bus station?
44
It's not far.
45
Go straight for two blocks, then turn right.
46
It's next to the park.
47
Great job!
48
That's clear and simple.
49
Thanks!
50
I've learned from my own experience getting lost.
51
That's the best way to learn.
52
Now let's switch roles.
53
You're the tourist this time.
54
Okay.
55
Excuse me, how can I get to the train station?
56
Go straight, then turn left at the traffic lights.
57
The train station is opposite the shopping mall.
58
Oh, that's clear.
59
So opposite means across from, right?
60
Yes.
61
Opposite and across from mean the same thing.
62
Got it.
63
Let's practice a longer dialogue, like in real life.
64
Alright.
65
Excuse me, can you help me, please?
66
Sure.
67
What are you looking for?
68
I'm looking for the library.
69
Oh, it's near here.
70
Go straight for about five minutes.
71
You'll see a cafe on the left.
72
The library is next to the cafe.
73
Okay, so I go straight, then the library is next to the cafe, right?
74
Yes, that's right.
75
Thank you very much.
76
You're welcome. That was great.
77
Very natural.
78
You sound like a local giving directions.
79
Thank you.
80
But sometimes I forget words like next to or behind.
81
That's normal.
82
Let's review some of those words.
83
Okay.
84
Next to means very close, side by side.
85
Behind means at the back.
86
In front of means before or facing something.
87
Across from or opposite means on the other side of the street.
88
Got it.
89
For example, the bank is next to the post office, the car is in front of the house, the park is behind the supermarket,
90
the bus stop is across from the school.
91
Excellent examples.
92
What if I don't understand the directions someone gives me?
93
You can say, I'm sorry, can you say that again please?
94
Or, can you speak more slowly please?
95
That's useful.
96
Sometimes people speak too fast.
97
Yes, it happens a lot.
98
Don't be shy to ask them to repeat.
99
Most people are happy to help.
100
Good to know.
101
Now, let's imagine we're in a new city together.
102
Okay.
103
You want to go to the museum, and I'm a local person.
104
Ask me how to get there.
105
Excuse me, how can I get to the museum?
106
Go straight down the street.
107
When you see the traffic lights, turn right.
108
The museum is next to the big hotel.
109
Turn right at the lights next to the big hotel.
110
Got it.
111
Thank you.
112
You're welcome.
113
Have fun at the museum.
114
Ana, what if I want to say how far something is?
115
Good question.
116
You can say, it's near or it's far.
117
You can also say, it's about five minutes from here.
118
Okay.
119
So if someone asks me, is the park far, I can say, no, it's near, just five minutes from here.
120
Exactly.
121
That's perfect English.
122
I like this topic.
123
It's very useful when traveling.
124
Yes, it's one of the most practical things to learn.
125
Now I know what to do if I get lost again.
126
That's great.
127
And remember, don't panic.
128
Just ask politely.
129
Excuse me, can you help me, please?
130
Exactly.
131
Thank you, Anna.
132
I learned many new words today, like straight, opposite, and turn left.
133
I'm glad to hear that.
134
You did great today.
135
Thanks.
136
What are we learning in the next episode?
137
Next time, we'll talk about hobbies and free time, how to talk about what you like doing.
138
That sounds fun.
139
It will be.
140
See you next time, Mark.
141
See you, Anna.
142
Bye.
143
Bye-bye.
이 레슨에 대해
"Asking for and Giving Directions | English for Beginners | Daily English Conversations"으로 쉐도잉 기법을 사용해 영어를 연습합니다.
매일 15~30분 꾸준히 연습하면 IELTS 스피킹에 대한 자신감이 길러집니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
