Reviewer Gopal When I was in the sixth grade,
2
my friends and I, at such a pivotal moment in our lives,
3
realized how bored we were.
4
There was a lack of excitement in our adventures.
5
We had found that we had done everything we could possibly think of to fill in an empty space of time.
6
We'd have sleepovers, play video games,
7
watch movies, walk around the neighborhood.
8
And even after all of this, we were still bored.
9
And the worst part about this was that we knew that other kids felt the same thing too.
10
So after talking and discussing amongst ourselves,
11
we realized that as much as we tried to fix our boredom,
12
We weren't doing anything substantial about it.
13
That's why we decided that we wanted to make people laugh.
14
We wanted to make funny videos that joked about things that no one really joked about.
15
We wanted to joke about our quirky,
16
quiet town of Alton, Texas.
17
Now, I'd love to tell you that I'm here to share that my videos have millions of views
18
and that I've sold tons of merchandise worldwide.
19
But unfortunately, like many of the ideas that we have,
20
we never made our videos, our idea, a reality.
21
I know right now there's probably at least one of you who's like,
22
man, this guy's depressing.
23
Is he gonna keep talking like this?
24
But there's a reason.
25
As time went on, more and more of us left the group until eventually all of us left the group.
26
All of us, except for one.
27
My friend couldn't let go of his idea.
28
So after we all left in the sixth grade,
29
he decided to make a team.
30
Members would come in and leave out, fluctuate.
31
He learned how to use complex computer software,
32
and he learned how to work with cameras.
33
He would make videos on drama,
34
comedy, things here and there.
35
And I didn't know any of this because I hadn't seen or talked to him in six years.
36
My friend, the one who never gave up on his idea,
37
has now launched his own videography company.
38
Like him and the rest of the world,
39
we all have tons of ideas every day.
40
And there was something different about him.
41
Because six years ago, my group of friends and I,
42
we all had the same idea.
43
But he was the only one who actually saw it through.
44
How many of you ever feel a drive inside of you that tells you, take a chance?
45
What if?
46
Why not?
47
For many of us, while we're sitting down at work,
48
eating lunch or waiting to drift off to sleep,
49
we get a sense of that feeling,
50
that drive that we had.
51
And then, after a few minutes of reminiscing,
52
we continue doing what we're doing.
53
For some of us, that feeling comes around often.
54
It makes us remember how we always wanted to start our own band,
55
take a road trip with our friends,
56
or even something small like clean up the trash in our local park.
57
And it sucks, because the thing that you remember the most out of everything is the fact that you didn't do it.
58
My friends and I, while we were in the process of making these videos,
59
we had so many opportunities to get something done.
60
I can remember how many times an adult came up to us and told us,
61
hey, I actually might know some things.
62
A kid would come and tell us I know how to edit videos,
63
or even amongst ourselves, we would tell each other,
64
you can come over to my house and we'll work on it.
65
All opportunities that we never actually took.
66
As time went on, I realized that I had to stop giving up my ideas.
67
Years and years went by,
68
and we never met up,
69
I never had the opportunity to explore that idea.
70
I had many ideas each day,
71
but they would all pass by.
72
Until eventually, I came upon an idea that I couldn't afford to let go of.
73
An idea that I couldn't afford to regret.
74
That idea was the South Texas Ideas Festival, STXI.
75
I come from a place where typically youth are not encouraged to do better.
76
They are discouraged.
77
They feel that they can't do the things that many other people can do.
78
And this was a problem because we didn't want this to happen anymore.
79
We didn't want people to feel like they needed to leave our home to do something better.
80
Our festival was student-led.
81
With a team of high school students,
82
we put on a festival that hosted 300 students from across our region.
83
And it was great.
84
We received tons of commendations for it.
85
And I know it sounds like an overnight success story,
86
but it really wasn't.
87
And one of the main questions that people would ask us was,
88
where did you get the drive to do this?
89
When I was a little kid,
90
I learned a lot from what was going on around me.
91
I came from a home where the only way to make a living was to pick up plastic bottles
92
and cans and sell them to processing plants.
93
My first real job was helping a woman set up her
94
booth at a flea market from 7 in the morning to 3 in the afternoon for $20.
95
My neighbor's son learned how to cut hair when he was eight years old
96
because it was the only way he and his family could afford a haircut.
97
At such a momentous time in my life,
98
I thought that I was limited,
99
that my community was limited,
100
my neighborhood was limited, all because of our circumstances.
101
And then came my crazy grandpa.
102
I went home, and one day he was watching TV,
103
and he told me, Michael, look, I want this.
104
Not the horse, the pole.
105
It's a horse patience pole.
106
It basically teaches a horse to be patient.
107
And he told me, I want this.
108
And I asked him, how are you going to afford it?
109
We don't have the money.
110
And he said, I'll find a way.
111
So I forgot about it.
112
I was walking around the house.
113
And during that time, he left,
114
and he got a wheelchair from I have no idea where,
115
and and a giant metal pole from I have no idea where.
116
And when I got back home,
117
I went into the backyard,
118
and this is what I saw.
119
My crazy grandpa had cut the wheelchair in half,
120
attached it to the top of the pole,
121
stood it upright, and tied the horse to it.
122
And in just three days,
123
we not only taught the horse how to stand still,
124
we taught it how to run in circles.
125
And I remember when I saw this,
126
I was, my mind was blown away,
127
because I had never seen someone take that initiative to do something, despite the odds.
128
And thinking about it now,
129
now that I'm older, I realize that I'm not that impressed in the actual poll,
130
because at the end of the day, it's just a poll.
131
I was more impressed in the fact that my grandpa went out and did it.
132
He didn't let resources get in the way of his idea.
133
He didn't find a reason not to do it.
134
He didn't choose to experience regret.
135
If you feel that idea,
136
that tug, then I'm telling you,
137
do what my grandpa did,
138
because that same drive that he had is what made the South Texas Ideas Festival possible.
139
It was a team of high school students we had no idea what we were doing,
140
we just knew that we wanted to present a big festival to the people of our community,
141
to show them everything we got.
142
If you feel like an idea is worth something,
143
be it yours or someone else's,
144
if you feel that an idea is worth time constraints,
145
rejections, and failures, then let me give you a piece of advice.
146
Stop what you're doing, put down your phone,
147
pause the TV show that you're watching,
148
hold off on that nap for five more minutes, and think.
149
You're bored, right?
150
Well, now is the perfect opportunity for you to take that road trip,
151
the perfect opportunity for you to start that band,
152
the perfect opportunity to clean up some trash.
153
Now, the next time that you're bored,
154
I beg of you, I implore you to get excited,
155
because you might just be onto your next best idea.
156
Thank you.

이 수업에 대하여
이 수업에서는 "지루함을 극복하고 대담함을 시작하는 방법"에 대해 배울 것입니다. 비디오에서 소개한 이야기들을 통해 자신의 아이디어를 실현하는 과정과 그 과정에서 마주치는 도전들을 다루어 보며, 자신만의 목소리를 찾고 어떻게 더욱 대담하게 행동할 수 있는지를 연습하게 됩니다. 이를 통해 자신감을 갖고 영어로 자신의 생각과 경험을 표현하는 능력을 키울 것입니다.
핵심 어휘 및 구문
- 지루함(boredom): 무언가가 재미없거나 흥미롭지 않을 때 느끼는 감정.
- 대담함(boldness): 두려움 없이 행동하는 태도.
- 아이디어(idea): 어떤 것을 하려는 생각이나 계획.
- 기회(opportunity): 뭔가를 할 수 있는 상황이나 조건.
- 팀(team): 공동의 목표를 위한 사람들의 모임.
- 이해하다(understand): 어떤 것을 알아내고 파악하는 과정.
- 드라이브(drive): 어떤 일을 하도록 고무시키는 내부의 동기.
연습 팁
비디오의 속도와 톤을 따라 연습하기 위해, shadowspeak 기법을 활용하세요. 처음에 비디오는 다소 빠를 수 있으므로, 천천히 반복해서 들어보며 각 문장을 따라 말하는 것이 중요합니다. 매일 10분씩 비디오를 보며 중요한 구문들을 shadow speak 해보세요. 특히 감정이 드러나는 부분에서 강조하는 발음을 따라하는 것도 큰 도움이 될 것입니다. 영어 발음 교정을 원하신다면, 자주 사용하는 표현들을 반복하여 연습하며, IELTS 스피킹 시험에서의 효과적인 발음 연습으로 연결할 수 있습니다. 계속해서 자신의 발음을 체크하며 피드백을 주고받는 습관을 들이세요.
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.
