A rabbit, of course.

Did you have your green tea?

Yes, I did.

A big cup of green tea.

And I had a very nice breakfast.

How are you doing, Emily?

I am doing great, thank you.

I am very busy this week.

You know, because of my friend Maria's wedding.

Oh yes, the garden wedding.

Did you find your blue dress?

Yes, I went to the mall on Saturday and I found a beautiful long blue dress.

It is perfect.

That is fantastic news.

And the silver shoes?

Yes, I found silver flat shoes and a small silver bag.

I am ready.

Wow, you are very organized.

I am still working on that big report for my boss, Mr. Henderson.

Oh no, the report with all the numbers?

How's that going?

It is… okay.

My plan with the coffee and cookies worked.

Tom and Sarah are talking again.

The office is happy now.

See, I told you, cookies solve every problem.

You are very smart, Emily.

We want to help you learn every week.

this episode with your friends too

if they are learning english they need these tips okay paul let's start

when we say think in english what do we mean well

for many people they hear a word in english then they

translate it to their own language then they think of an answer in their language

and then they translate it back to english oh that is a lot of work for the brain.

It is very slow. So slow!

It makes people feel tired.

Thinking in English means you go from the idea directly to the English word.

My first tip for this is don't just think of names of objects.

Think in small, simple sentences.

Small sentences?

Can you give me an example, Emily?

Sure.

Imagine you are in your kitchen.

Don't just look at the fridge and say, fridge.

Look at the fridge and think, I am hungry.

Or, the fridge is white.

Ah, I see.

So you connect the object to an action or a feeling.

Yes.

Or if you see your coffee, don't just say, coffee.

Think, I love hot coffee.

Or, this coffee smells good.

That is a great tip.

It is easy because the sentences are short.

A1 level sentences.

Exactly.

You don't need big words.

The sun is hot is a perfect thought.

The bus is late is a great thought.

I like that.

My next tip is about internal narration.

Internal narration?

That sounds like a big word, Paul.

100

What is that?

101

It is simple.

102

It means you become the narrator of your own life.

103

You tell the story of your day in your head oh like a movie yes for example

104

when i wake up i think in my head i am

105

getting out of bed now i am walking to the kitchen i am making tea the water is hot wow

106

so you describe your actions as you do them exactly i

107

am putting on my blue pajamas i am sitting on my red sofa Use the words you know to describe your life.

108

That is very smart.

109

It helps your brain connect English to your real movements.

110

Yes.

111

And if you don't know a word, it is okay.

112

You can just say, the thing.

113

For example, I am opening the… thing.

114

Then, later, you can look up the word for cupboard.

115

That takes the pressure away.

116

You don't have to be perfect.

117

No. Perfection is not the goal.

118

Communication with yourself is the goal.

119

I love that.

120

Communication with yourself.

121

What is your next tip, Emily?

122

My next tip is to make your to-do list in English.

123

A shopping list or a work list?

124

Both.

125

For example, for Maria's wedding, I have a list.

126

Buy flowers, call Maria, practice dancing.

127

Practice dancing?

128

Are you a good dancer, Emily?

129

I am… okay.

130

But the list helps me think in English, because I see the words every time I look at my paper.

131

That is good.

132

I do that with my shopping list.

133

Milk, eggs, apples, cookies.

134

Especially the cookies for Tom and Sarah.

135

Yes, when I see the word milk on my list, I don't think of the word in my language.

136

I just think of the white drink.

137

Exactly.

138

It's about making English a part of your daily routine.

139

I have another one.

140

This is a fun one.

141

I call it the what-if game.

142

The what-if game?

143

How do you play?

144

When you are sitting on the bus or waiting in line, think of simple what-if situations.

145

Give me an example.

146

Okay.

147

What if it rains today?

148

Then you answer in your head, I will use my umbrella.

149

Or, what if I am late for work?

150

Answer, I will call my boss.

151

Oh, that is excellent practice for simple future sentences.

152

Yes.

153

Or, what if I see a dog?

154

Answer, I will say hello to the dog.

155

It is simple and fun.

156

It's like a little conversation in your head.

157

Exactly.

158

And because you are alone in your head, you can make mistakes.

159

No one is listening.

160

That is the best part.

161

Your brain is a safe place to practice.

162

Yes.

163

Emily, what do you think about people using their phones in English?

164

Oh, that is a classic tip.

165

Change the language on your phone to English.

166

Is that difficult for a beginner?

167

It can be a little scary at first, but you already know where the buttons are.

168

True.

169

You know the Settings button and the Messages button.

170

Yes.

171

So when you see settings instead of the word in your language, your brain starts to accept English as normal.

172

Normal.

173

That is a good word.

174

We want English to feel normal, not like a difficult lesson.

175

Exactly.

176

Another tip I like is describing people.

177

Like when you are people-watching at the park.

178

Yes.

179

Look at someone and think of three simple things about them.

180

He is tall.

181

He has a red hat.

182

He is walking fast.

183

She is happy.

184

She has a big dog.

185

They are playing.

186

Yes, it is very easy.

187

You only need colors, basic adjectives, and simple verbs.

188

That is great because it uses the small sentences tip too.

189

I also think it is important to stop using a translation dictionary and start using an English-to-English dictionary for kids.

190

An English dictionary for kids?

191

Why?

192

Because the definitions are very simple.

193

They use A1 and A2 words to explain things.

194

Ah, I see.

195

So if you look up apple, it says a red fruit instead of a long, difficult explanation.

196

Exactly.

197

It helps you think of English words using other English words.

198

That is a very high-level tip, but in a very simple way.

199

Thank you.

200

I try my best.

201

Paul, what do you do when you are stressed?

202

Do you think in English then?

203

Honestly, when I am very stressed, I go back to my own language, and that is okay.

204

I agree.

205

You don't have to think in English 100% of the time.

206

No. Start with five minutes a day.

207

Just five minutes of internal narration, or the what-if game.

208

Only five minutes?

209

Everyone has five minutes.

210

Yes.

211

You can do it while you brush your teeth.

212

I am brushing my teeth.

213

The water is cold.

214

I am tired. That is perfect.

215

Five minutes of English thinking every morning.

216

And slowly, five minutes becomes ten minutes, then twenty.

217

And one day you wake up and realize you were dreaming in English.

218

Has that happened to you, Emily?

219

Yes.

220

Last night I dreamed about the wedding.

221

Maria was wearing a green dress and I was speaking English to everyone.

222

Wow.

223

That means your brain is very happy with English.

224

It is.

225

But it took time.

226

You have to be patient with your brain.

227

Yes.

228

The brain is like a muscle.

229

You have to exercise it.

230

And thinking is the best exercise.

231

It's free and you can do it anywhere.

232

That's true.

233

You can do it at work, at the supermarket, or on the sofa.

234

Paul, let's talk about one more tip.

235

I call it English labels.

236

Oh, I know this one.

237

You put paper on things.

238

Yes, but not for everything.

239

Just for things you always forget.

240

Or for new phrases you want to use.

241

Like, turn off the lights?

242

Yes.

243

Put a small note by the door.

244

Turn off the lights.

245

Every time you leave, you read it and think it.

246

Oh, that is good.

247

It's a visual thought.

248

Exactly.

249

After one week, you don't need the note.

250

You just see the door and think, turn off the lights.

251

I'm going to do that for my bicycle jar.

252

I will put a note that says, saving for my dream.

253

That is a beautiful thought, Paul.

254

And it's in English.

255

It is.

256

See?

257

I am thinking in English already.

258

You are a star student.

259

Thank you, Emily.

260

Wow, we talked about many things today.

261

We did.

262

It was a very productive chat.

263

I feel like my brain is working hard now, but in a good way.

264

Good.

265

That means the tips are working.

266

So, should we remember what we talked about for our friends at home?

267

Yes, let's do a quick recap.

268

Okay.

269

I remember the first one.

270

Don't just name things.

271

Use small, simple sentences like, the coffee is hot, or I am happy.

272

Yes.

273

And then you talked about internal narration, being the narrator of your own movie.

274

I am walking.

275

I am opening the door.

276

Right.

277

And you said we should make our lists in English, shopping lists and to-do lists.

278

Yes, that helps a lot.

279

And don't forget the what-if game for when you are waiting or bored.

280

And the phone, changing the phone language to English to make it feel normal.

281

Also, describing people in the park or on the street with three simple words.

282

And my favorite, starting with just five minutes a day.

283

No pressure.

284

Exactly.

285

And using a simple English dictionary to avoid translating.

286

Whew!

287

That is a lot of great advice, Emily.

288

I hope it helps everyone.

289

It really changed my life when I started doing these things.

290

Me too.

291

It makes speaking much more natural.

292

Well, everyone, that is all the time we have for today.

293

Oh, the time always goes so fast when we talk.

294

It does!

295

But before we go, we want to hear from you!

296

Yes!

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.
