1
With me on Careers Talk is Jake Watson, who's an air traffic controller, making sure planes take off and land safely at a busy airport.
2
Jake, welcome.
3
We've got many questions emailed by our teenage listeners.
4
OK.
5
First, Sarah asks what you find challenging about your job.
6
The job's extremely interesting, but it's not easy.
7
Obviously, it involves keeping radio contact with aircraft and directing their movements.
8
I also have to provide information to pilots about weather conditions, for example, so there's a lot involved.
9
I get to use advanced radio communication to maintain contact with pilots.
10
I also speak to air authorities to make sure planes pass safely through their airspace.
11
And it's when I have to deal with all this at once that I'm really stretched.
12
Ben asks how you ended up doing such an unusual job.
13
I've always loved being around airports.
14
After graduating in aircraft engineering, I got my private pilot's licence.
15
I'd always wanted to become a commercial pilot.
16
But then I was offered a job in aircraft maintenance.
17
That was pressured at times, so it was good training.
18
And I was lucky enough to be getting a good salary.
19
But after a while, it became a bit routine, so I started looking at what else was available and saw the job advertised.
20
Samantha wants to know how hard it was to get the job.
21
The selection process was tough.
22
I was given lots of tasks, like problem solving to test my analytical skills, which I'd been nervous about.
23
To my surprise, I had no problems with them.
24
I've always been good at math, which probably helped.
25
Actually, I thought math would be a basic necessity for this work and that doing the job would make me even better at it.
26
In fact, only straightforward calculations are involved.
27
Anyway, I got through.
28
Peter asks how you felt when you first took charge of landing a plane without any help.
29
Yes, well, as a trainee, you're used to having someone listening to you when you're talking to pilots, but eventually you have to do it alone, of course.
30
My instructors assured me that I'd had all the necessary preparation.
31
I wasn't convinced, but in fact the whole thing happened almost without me realising it.
32
I'd been so absorbed in what I was doing, it was only afterwards that I remembered no one had been there checking up on me.
33
So it was fine.
34
B asks what air controllers do when the weather's foggy.
35
Well, they airport's near a river, so some days everything's covered in dense fog.
36
Then the regular buzz of activity dies down, and there's just screens lighting up with wind speed reports and so on, which we still keep a close eye on.
37
It doesn't mean we can relax completely.
38
The fog can hang around for hours or clear within minutes.
39
We make the most of those times when we're not dealing with 50 planes an hour, though.
40
Now, a question from Richard.
41
Are you aware of how much people hate flight delays?
42
Well, controllers actually work to speed up flight departures, but I realise why people get frustrated when flights are running late.
43
I know from experience, though, that it doesn't do any good.
44
I do sometimes feel sorry for passengers, but the delay in departure schedules isn't something I let myself get concerned about up in the control tower.
45
The departure times are decided according to the routes aircraft take, among other things, but that's hard to get that over to passengers.
46
Finally, I read that air traffic controllers recently helped out with an air display at the airport.
47
How did that go?
48
Really well.
49
We'd spent several months preparing for it.
50
It was amazing how little disruption there was to flights.
51
My job was talking to helicopter pilots filming the display, as well as monitoring other aircraft at the show.
52
I hadn't expected to see quite such big crowds.
53
It was certainly a satisfying feeling when it was over, and nothing had gone wrong.
54
Thanks, Jake.

왜 이 영상을 통해 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

영어 회화를 배우는 데 있어 청취와 말하기의 조화는 매우 중요합니다. 이 영상에서는 항공 교통 관제사인 제이크 왓슨의 인터뷰를 통해 다양한 상황에서의 영어 표현을 접할 수 있습니다. 제이크는 비행기가 안전하게 이착륙하도록 돕는 직업을 가진 만큼, 그의 업무는 고난도의 긴장감을 요구합니다. 이러한 실제적인 대화는 영어 학습자에게 shadow speak 기법을 활성화하는 데 도움이 되며, 실제 상황에서 사용되는 표현을 연습할 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다. 이 과정에서 IELTS 스피킹이나 자연스러운 영어 회화 연습 능력을 동시에 향상시킬 수 있습니다.

일반적인 발음 함정

영상 속에서 제이크가 사용하는 몇 가지 단어와 발음은 영어 학습자에게 도전이 될 수 있습니다. 예를 들어, 'air traffic controller'와 같은 복합어는 빠르게 말할 때 종종 놓치는 경우가 많습니다. 'controller'의 정확한 발음에 집중하여 연습해 보세요. 또한, 'navigate', 'analyze'와 같은 단어는 강세에 따라 뜻이 달라질 수 있으니 주의해서 반복적으로 연습하는 것이 좋습니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 이러한 발음을 자주 듣고 따라 함으로써 어떻게 사용되는지를 익혀보세요.

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.
