레슨 만드는 중...

Okay, that is.. do not do that.
2
Hi everybody, Lauren Berger, Intern Queen here.
3
Back with a video about email communication.
4
I know that our this versus that content does really well on Instagram, both on Intern Queen and Career Queen, and we wanted to bring some of that over to the YouTube channel.
5
We're all trying to elevate our work emails and our communication.
6
I know it is always a battle at Intern Queen, We call it organizational sophistication, and we are just looking to elevate every single day.
7
So how can you make the most of work emails
8
and how can you make sure that when you're responding to an email, it's in the most professional way?
9
To give the best instruction for this video, I thought I'd give you a specific example.
10
So the example I want to use is you messed up something at work
11
and you got an email from your boss that basically says some version of WTF, right?
12
Like, where's that thing?
13
Why didn't you do it?
14
What happened?
15
We've all been there.
16
We've all received those emails.
17
And if you're anything like me, it takes you a minute to respond to those emails because you write it out and then you're like, no, too wordy, write it out again.
18
You write it out again.
19
And finally you send a version and you kind of cross your fingers and hope it's okay.
20
So first I'm gonna go over some basic tips and things
21
that you should do versus things you shouldn't do when you're responding to an email like that.
22
And then I'm gonna give you an actual example
23
and you guys can write it down or take a picture of it so that you remember, 'cause I'm sure we'll all be in that situation sometime soon, right?
24
So the first thing is try to avoid the word I'm sorry.
25
If you actually do something terrible, please say you're sorry.
26
But in work communication, typically these aren't major mistakes.
27
always need to use the word I'm sorry.
28
I think especially as women, we tend to apologize for everything.
29
You don't need to say the word I'm sorry, a hundred times a day, like save that for when you're actually sorry.
30
So I think instead of doing that, you can say things like, thanks for the reminder, not I'm so sorry, I didn't do that.
31
And again, I'll give you a specific example in a bit.
32
Also, and this has been all over TikTok, I feel like this year, but just overusing exclamation points.
33
I'm the queen of that because sometimes I I am genuinely excited, but I've tried to pull that back a little bit.
34
No need to overuse the exclamation points in an email.
35
It's just not the most professional.
36
Also, try to show in any work email the immediate action that you're taking.
37
I think it's really important to show that you're taking in the feedback and you're doing the next thing, right?
38
Without a lot of complaints or excuses or extra language.
39
My next step is just don't overcomplicate it.
40
Again, no need to give too much detail about why something didn't happen.
41
I would just get to the point, show that you get it and you're on to the next thing and you're pushing the project forward.
42
And again, just don't let it linger, right?
43
Really work to show in your email that you are going to take this project to the next step
44
So first I'm gonna give you guys the Do not do this example, okay?
45
So again, you messed up something, your boss says, where's the thing?
46
And here's your email back.
47
Oh, I'm so sorry.
48
Eek!
49
Exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point.
50
I was going to do that.
51
But then my dog got sick
52
and I was working with Mary on this other project and I just didn't get around to it.
53
And by the time I looked at my clock, it was time to eat.
54
And then I had a cough and then I had a cold.
55
And then I thought I had COVID, but I didn't have COVID.
56
And now I'm here today.
57
And I don't know when this email is going to end.
58
Anyhow, I'll do this and maybe we can talk about it if you have time next week.
59
If not, maybe I can do something else with it.
60
Thanks so much, Lauren.
61
Right?
62
Okay, that is earned.
63
Do not do that.
64
Instead, I want you guys to write back something like this.
65
Thanks for the reminder.
66
I'll work on fixing that now.
67
Are you open to review this with me Monday at 10 a .m.?
68
I can send an invite.
69
Thanks, Lauren.
70
Do you guys hear the difference there, right?
71
Okay, so let's just go through our like do this, don't do that real quick from that email.
72
So don't Do...
73
"This" was the "I'm sorry, yada, yada, yada," right?
74
Instead, do that.
75
It was just quickly recognizing it.
76
Thanks for the reminder.
77
Don't do this, go on and on and on and on and on.
78
Instead, Just get to the point, right? Do that.
79
Instead of sort of being vague about the next step, and if you were gonna do the thing or not do the thing, do that be really freaking clear about what you're gonna do
80
and don't do this which is let it linger
81
and say maybe we can talk about it
82
and maybe all right instead do that and the
83
that here is push the project forward take it to the
84
next step are you free to discuss this on monday right show
85
that you're taking ownership so i hope that video was helpful remember do this don't do that and i'll Oh,
86
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

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.
