쉐도잉 연습: 🎧 Luyện Nghe Tiếng Anh B1 - Low-Intermediate Level 4 (CEFR B1) | Listening English Podcast |🎯 - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

Hello, welcome to my video.

Let's try to practice your listening skill.

Now move on to conversation one.

And the topic is, I do speak Spanish.

Listen carefully.

Sarah, you've taught in a bunch of different places.

What countries have you taught again?

Quite a few.

I've taught in Korea, Ecuador, Taiwan, Mexico, Japan, and the USA.

Okay, so you're a language teacher.

You've taught in all these amazing countries.

So let's talk about the languages first.

Do you speak Japanese?

I Don't I'm embarrassed.

I've lived here six years, but I don't How about you do you speak Japanese?

I do speak Japanese.

Oh you do yeah, but it's not very good People don't hear me say it that much because it's really bad, but I do speak Japanese, but it's bad But what about the other languages?

You lived in Korea.

Did you study Korean?

I did.

I did study Korean.

And I did learn to read very well.

But now I've forgotten, so I can't speak it anymore.

I heard that it's relatively easy to learn the alphabet in Korea.

Yes, it is.

It was invented by a scientist to be simple and easy to learn how to read.

So it is very easy.

What about China?

Did you learn Chinese?

I didn't.

I did study a lot, but in the end I found it too difficult.

Do you speak Chinese?

I don't speak Chinese, but I lived in Thailand for five years and I do speak Thai.

And I did study Thai when I was there. So yeah.

And it's tonal, so it's kind of similar in some ways to Chinese.

And can you read Thai?

I can read Thai.

Yeah, I do read Thai.

So actually my Thai reading is probably better than my Japanese.

Oh wow.

Yeah, but it's hard because in Thai the words kind of stick together.

Now you were in Mexico and in Ecuador.

Yes.

So do you speak Spanish?

I do speak Spanish.

That was one of my goals for moving there was to become fluent

and I'm very happy now I can say I do speak Spanish.

And your husband was with you.

Does he speak Spanish?

Yeah, he does speak Spanish.

He studied a lot and really improved a lot, so now he can say the same thing.

He does speak Spanish.

And your children?

They do too.

They speak Spanish.

Oh, nice.

And your children are with you now in Japan.

Do they speak Japanese?

They don't.

They're learning very quickly.

So I think they will improve and in a couple of months I can say that they can.

But right now their Japanese is very low.

So you were just in Mexico.

Do you miss Mexico?

I do miss Mexico.

I miss the food the most.

I miss the Spanish language and I miss the music.

How about you?

Do you miss Thailand?

I do miss Thailand a little bit, but not too much because I visit there a lot.

So it's not that big of a deal.

I go there usually once or twice a year.

But when I'm in Japan, I do miss it.

I miss the food especially.

Now we both are outside of the US.

We don't live in the US.

Do you miss living in the US?

I do miss living in the US.

I often miss that I understand and I know the culture so well.

Sometimes in Japan I feel like an outsider.

And so I do miss being in the USA and being able to blend into the background to be just another person.

How about you?

Do you miss the USA?

I don't.

I don't miss it at all.

So I visit it.

I do miss my family and I do miss some things, especially like the food and the nature.

But I don't miss actually living in America.

Maybe because I go back so often.

So these days it just doesn't seem like a big deal.

Now, we are both in Japan.

Do you plan to teach somewhere else soon?

I don't.

I hope to stay in Japan for a couple of years.

We are relaxed, we are settled, the children are in school.

I hope we can stay here.

How about you?

Are you going to stay?

Or do you have plans to go?

100

I do have plans to go, actually, and I want your old job.

101

Really?

102

I want to work for the U.S government, and I want to work in a different country.

103

You should do it.

104

I will.

105

That is the end of conversation one.

106

Now move on to conversation two.

107

And the topic is job duties.

108

Listen carefully.

109

So, Sarah, you were a teacher for the State Department?

110

Yes, that's right.

111

I was with the English Language Fellows Program.

112

Oh, wow.

113

And where did you teach?

114

I taught in Mexico.

115

Oh, that's great.

116

Wow.

117

So, when you teach for the State Department, do they let you where? anything you want?

118

Do you have to wear a suit or anything?

119

They let you wear anything that is professional.

120

You don't have to wear a suit, but you can't wear jeans.

121

Okay.

122

Do they let you teach anything you want?

123

No, they don't let you teach anything you want.

124

You do have a lot of freedom, but they have some requirements.

125

So you might have to teach university students beginning English,

126

or you might have to teach university students engineering English.

127

You have freedom how you're going to teach those subjects, but they don't let you choose the subjects.

128

Okay.

129

And when you work for the U.S government, do they make you do a lot of paperwork?

130

They do.

131

They do make you do a lot of paperwork.

132

When I applied for the job, it was the most difficult job application I'd ever done.

133

They make you fill out a lot of forms

134

and they make you ask your references to fill out a lot of forms too.

135

And then when you do move to the country, they make you fill out even more forms for the work visa and the residency visa.

136

Oh, wow.

137

That sounds pretty harsh.

138

It's really difficult.

139

They do try to help you with the forms,

140

but the official rule is that they will only help the official employee.

141

I traveled with my husband and three kids.

142

They let me bring my family, but they didn't help me with the paperwork for my family.

143

Oh wow.

144

So, does the government help you get acclimated?

145

For example, do they help you learn the language?

146

Do they help you with moving costs?

147

Do they help you get acquainted with the local culture?

148

Some of those are yes and some are no. They don't help you learn the local language.

149

That is up to you individually.

150

They do help you become acclimated to your town.

151

They travel with you to your town.

152

They make your host institution find you housing.

153

So that's really nice.

154

They help you with the housing, they make your institution find you housing.

155

And they let you have some time to get used to it before you're required to be working 40 hours a week.

156

So you've worked for a university.

157

You've worked for the U.S government.

158

Have you worked for language schools?

159

I have.

160

When I worked in Korea, I worked for an independent, privately owned language school.

161

And we taught after-school lessons.

162

So which did you prefer?

163

Which ones did you like?

164

Well, my favorite has been the university job because they let you choose your own hours.

165

You have to teach the classes, but if you don't have class,

166

they let you plan your lessons from home or whatever time of day that you want to do it.

167

I like that.

168

But when I was working for the State Department, they made you work regular 9 to 5, Monday to Friday hours.

169

Oh, right.

170

Yeah, they made you work those hours.

171

I liked the private language school.

172

It was a good job for me at the time, but they also make you work the hours that they need you,

173

which is 2 to 7 p.m.

174

Tuesday through Saturday.

175

And those are not the best hours to be working, so I didn't like that.

176

But the language school helped me the most.

177

They taught me language, they took me on trips,

178

they really treated me like a part of the family in a way that the university and the state department didn't.

179

So that was a really good memory, a good job.

180

So if you could rank the jobs between university, working for the US government, and a language school, what would you rank 1, 2, 3?

181

Just exactly how you said it.

182

University would be the top.

183

The State Department would be very close.

184

Very close second.

185

And then the language school would be a little farther, farther down.

186

The pay was a lot lower.

187

The hours were not very good.

188

I didn't have freedom.

189

They make you work more.

190

Make you work more.

191

Yeah.

192

Right.

193

Okay.

194

That's awesome.

195

Thanks.

196

Thanks.

197

That is the end of video today.

198

You did very well so keep going.

199

If you have any questions, just let me know in the comment section.

200

Bye bye and see you in the next video.

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.
