레슨 만드는 중...
1
Are you trying your best to learn English, but you still think in your native language before speaking?
2
That might be the reason why you feel slow, confused or nervous every time you try to speak English.
3
Your brain has to translate every word, and that takes time.
4
But here's the good news.
5
You can train your brain to stop translating and start thinking directly in English.
6
Yes, it's possible.
7
And in this video, I'm going to show you exactly how to do that in simple and easy steps.
8
Let's begin with the first step.
9
Start with easy and simple words you see around you every day.
10
Look around you.
11
Your home.
12
Your room.
13
Your desk.
14
Try to name everything you see in English.
15
Instead of thinking kursi or chaise, say chair.
16
Instead of kitab, say book.
17
Say things like, this is a chair.
18
My phone is on the table, or I see a window, even if it feels very basic.
19
This small daily habit will help your brain get used to using English for simple things.
20
And this is where thinking.
21
In English begins with the little things you see every day.
22
Step 2.
23
Use English when you talk to yourself or when you think about your daily life.
24
Every person has thoughts in their mind all day things like I am tired I need to eat
25
or I forgot my keys usually you say these things in your native language inside your head
26
but now you need to start saying them in English for example
27
when you are brushing your teeth think I'm brushing my teeth now
28
when you are getting ready for work think I need to hurry
29
or i'll be late even simple thoughts like it's hot today
30
or i feel sleepy should be in english the more you
31
think in english the faster you'll become comfortable speaking it step three
32
watch english videos
33
and try to repeat what you hear just like shadowing choose a short video in english
34
that you enjoy make sure it has subtitles
35
so you can understand the words then listen to one sentence at a time
36
and repeat it after the speaker try to copy the same tone pronunciation
37
and speed just like you're imitating a native speaker
38
so I will suggest the English waves YouTube channel for this practice
39
because it has simple and clear English especially made for beginners
40
and intermediate learners the videos are in the form of graded readers
41
which makes it easy to follow and repeat the link to the english waves youtube channel is in the description
42
step four talk to yourself in english even
43
when no one is around it may feel a little strange in the beginning
44
but this is one of the best ways to practice you can stand in front of the mirror
45
and say what you are doing
46
or what you are feeling say things like today is going
47
to be a good day I will finish my homework
48
or I'm learning something new every day You are not just
49
practicing speaking You are also training your brain to think in English without fear
50
and the best part You don't need anyone else to practice
51
with you can start right now Step 5 use your imagination
52
and create simple English stories in your mind Let's say you are walking to school or going to work During that time,
53
try to imagine something interesting in your mind, in English.
54
For example, think, a dog is chasing a ball, or a girl is reading a book under a tree.
55
You can even make funny stories in your head.
56
A banana is talking to a watermelon at the market.
57
It sounds silly, but it trains your brain to create and understand English sentences without needing translation.
58
Step 7.
59
Be patient with yourself and trust the process.
60
Learning to think in English will not happen in one day or one week.
61
It takes time, practice and patience.
62
But if you follow these small steps every day, your brain will slowly begin to use English naturally without needing to translate.
63
One day, you will suddenly notice that your thoughts are coming in English and that's a beautiful moment.
64
Remember, you don't need to speak perfect English.
65
You just need to make progress every day.
66
Start with simple words.
67
Turn your small daily thoughts into English.
68
Talk to yourself, repeat what you hear, and use your imagination.
69
Be patient and don't give up.
70
Soon, you will stop thinking in your native language, and you will start thinking in English like it's your second nature.

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.
