레슨 만드는 중...
1
Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel, where learning English is easy and fun.
2
I'm Emily.
3
Hi Emily.
4
Hello to all our wonderful friends listening today.
5
It is so great to be here with you.
6
Yes, it is wonderful to see you, Paul.
7
How are you doing today?
8
I am doing really well, thank you.
9
I have my warm tea and I am ready to talk.
10
How are you, Emily?
11
I am great, thank you.
12
I am very excited about our chat today.
13
We have a very fun topic.
14
Yes, we do.
15
Today we are doing real English conversation practice.
16
We are just two friends talking about real life.
17
Exactly.
18
Real life is full of interesting stories, work problems, and fun plans, and we want to share that with our listeners.
19
That is right.
20
But wait, Emily, before we start our conversation today, we should ask our friends at home for a small favor.
21
Oh yes, that is a very important point, Paul.

27

28
That is a wonderful idea.
29
Thank you so much for your support, everyone.
30
You are awesome.
31
Yes, thank you.
32
Okay, Paul, let us start our real conversation.
33
I want to know about your week.
34
How is work?
35
Hmm.
36
Work is a little crazy this week, Emily.
37
Oh, crazy?
38
Crazy?
39
Why is it crazy?
40
Tell me everything.
41
Well, yesterday morning, we had a very big meeting at the office.
42
A big meeting?
43
Was your boss there?
44
Yes.
45
Our boss, Mr. Davis, was there.
46
He is a very nice man, but he is always very busy.
47
Ah, yes.
48
Bosses are always busy.
49
What did Mr. Davis say in the meeting?
50
He told us about a new project, a very big project for a new client.
51
We must finish it by next Wednesday.
52
Next Wednesday?
53
Wow!
54
That is very fast!
55
You do not have much time.
56
I know.
57
It is only six days away.
58
So everyone on the team is feeling a little stressed.
59
That is understandable.
60
When time is short, people get nervous.
61
Yes, exactly.
62
And because people are nervous, we had a small problem in the office yesterday afternoon.
63
Oh no!
64
What happened?
65
Was it a computer problem?
66
No, it was not a computer problem.
67
It was a problem between two colleagues.
68
Oh, people problems are the hardest problems.
69
Who was involved?
70
You remember my colleague David, the tall guy with glasses?
71
Yes, I know David.
72
He is very smart and very polite.
73
Yes, that is David.
74
Well, he is working on the new project with another colleague, Jessica.
75
Jessica?
76
Is she new?
77
I do not think I know Jessica.
78
Yes, Jessica started last month.
79
She is very energetic and she has many big ideas.
80
Okay, so David is quiet and polite and Jessica has big energy?
81
That sounds like an interesting team.
82
Yes, it is an interesting team.
83
But yesterday they had a disagreement about the project.
84
A disagreement?
85
What did they say?
86
Well, Jessica showed her new ideas for the project.
87
She drew some pictures and wrote a long plan.
88
That sounds very nice.
89
She worked hard.
90
She did.
91
But David looked at her plan and said, This is too complicated.
92
It will take too much time.
93
Oh, that is a bit direct.
94
How did Jessica feel?
95
She was very upset.
96
Her face turned red and she was very quiet.
97
She thought David did not like her work.
98
Oh, poor Jessica.
99
She wanted to do a good job and she felt sad.
100
Yes, exactly.
101
And David did not mean to be rude.
102
He was just thinking about the short time we have before Wednesday.
103
I see.
104
He was thinking about the clock and she was thinking about the creative ideas.
105
Yes, you understand it perfectly, Emily.
106
But after the meeting, they did not talk to each other all afternoon.
107
The office was so quiet and cold.
108
Oh, wow.
109
That is very uncomfortable for everyone in the room.
110
Where is your desk, Paul?
111
My desk is right between David and Jessica.
112
Oh, no, Paul.
113
That is the worst place to sit.
114
You are right in the middle of the silence.
115
It was terrible.
116
I wanted to say something, but I did not know what to do.
117
What do you think, Emily?
118
How can colleagues fix a problem like that?
119
Hmm, that is a great question.
120
In real life, communication is the key.
121
People need to explain their feelings calmly.
122
That is true, but they were both afraid to speak first.
123
Yes, that is normal.
124
Here's a practical tip for office life, Paul.
125
When colleagues are stressed, a small break helps a lot.
126
A small break?
127
Like going outside?
128
Yes, or going to the office kitchen for a warm drink.
129
You can invite both of them for a coffee or tea.
130
Ah, a coffee break.
131
That is a very friendly idea.
132
Yes.
133
When people hold a warm cup of coffee or tea, they relax.
134
The office kitchen is not as formal as the meeting room.
135
That is a great tip.
136
In a casual space, it's easier to say, I'm sorry about earlier.
137
Yes, exactly.
138
And another good tip is to start with a positive comment.
139
David can say, Jessica, your ideas are very creative and beautiful.
140
Oh, I like that.
141
Good job, Emily.
142
Starting with something nice makes the other person open their ears.
143
Right.
144
And then David can say, I just worry about our time for next week.
145
Let us use your best idea and make it simpler.
146
That sounds so easy and respectful.
147
That is positive communication.
148
Yes.
149
It is all about how we say things.
150
Words have a lot of power.
151
That is so true.
152
Well, guess what happened this morning?
153
What?
154
Tell me, did you buy them coffee?
155
I did.
156
I went to the coffee shop near our office.
157
I bought three cups of coffee and a big box of chocolate donuts.
158
Wow, donuts!
159
You are the best colleague ever, Paul.
160
Everyone loves chocolate donuts.
161
Thank you.
162
I put the donuts on my desk and said, David, Jessica, let's take a five-minute break.
163
That is awesome!
164
Did it work?
165
Did they talk?
166
Yes, it worked.
167
They ate donuts, drank coffee, and David apologized to Jessica.
168
He said her ideas were great, just like you said.
169
That is great.
170
Good job, Paul.
171
You saved the day at the office.
172
Yes, now the team is happy again and we are working hard for Wednesday.
173
I am so glad to hear that.
174
Teamwork is very important.
175
But friendship and respect are even more important.
176
Yes, exactly.
177
Enough about my work drama.
178
What about you, Emily?
179
How is your week going?
180
Well, my work week is very normal and quiet, but my evening yesterday was very busy and exciting.
181
Oh, really?
182
What did you do yesterday evening?
183
Did you go to a party?
184
No, not a party.
185
I went to visit my good friend, Sarah.
186
Ah, Sarah.
187
I remember her.
188
She loves to travel, right?
189
Yes, that is her.
190
Well, Sarah is going on a big trip this Friday.
191
She is flying to London.
192
Wow, London.
193
That is an amazing city.
194
Is she going for vacation?
195
Yes, she is taking a two-week vacation.
196
She is very excited to see the museums and eat nice food.
197
That sounds wonderful, but why was your evening busy
198
because sarah called me at seven o'clock last night
199
and she was sounding very stressed stressed why does she not
200
have her passport no her passport is fine she was stressed
201
because of her suitcase she asked me to come over and help her pack.
202
Ah, packing.
203
Packing a suitcase can be very difficult.
204
There's never enough room.
205
Yes.
206
When I arrived at her apartment, her bedroom was full of clothes.
207
Clothes on the bed, clothes on the chair, clothes on the floor.
208
Oh my goodness.
209
That sounds like a clothing store.
210
It really did.
211
Sarah looked at me and said, Emily, my suitcase is too small.
212
I need a bigger bag.
213
Did she really need a bigger bag?
214
Or did she just have too many clothes?
215
She had way too many clothes, Paul.
216
She wanted to take ten pairs of shoes.
217
Ten pairs of shoes?
218
Why does anyone need ten pairs of shoes for two weeks?
219
That is exactly what I asked her.
220
She said, well, I need walking shoes, rain shoes, dinner shoes, boots, sandals.
221
Oh wow!
222
Sandals in London?
223
The weather in London can be rainy and cool.
224
Exactly!
225
So we sat down on the floor and we did some real conversation about packing.
226
I had to teach her some easy travel rules.
227
I love rules.
228
What is your first tip for packing a suitcase, Emily?
229
My first and best tip is check the weather report before you open your closet.
230
Ah, that is very smart.
231
Look at the weather on your phone first.
232
Yes, we looked at the weather for London.
233
It showed rain and cool days, around 15 degrees Celsius.
234
So no sandals needed.
235
Right.
236
I told Sarah, put the sandals back in the closet.
237
You only need one pair of comfortable walking shoes and one pair of nice boots.
238
That saves so much space.
239
Shoes are very heavy and they take up a lot of room in a bag.
240
They really do.
241
My second practical tip is make a list on paper.
242
A writing list.
243
Why on paper?
244
When you write down what you need, your brain relaxes.
245
You write seven shirts, three pairs of pants, four socks, one jacket.
246
Ah, I see.
247
If you do not have a list, you just throw everything into the bag because you are scared to forget something.
248
Exactly.
249
A list keeps you organized and calm.
250
We made a nice list together.
251
Good job.
252
And what did you do with all the extra shirts and dresses on the bed?
253
We played a little game.
254
I picked up a dress and asked, is this a need or is this a want?
255
Ooh, I remember those words.
256
A need is something necessary and a want is just something extra you like.
257
Yes, exactly.
258
You have a great memory, Paul.
259
Thank you.
260
So how many things were just wants?
261
Almost half of the clothes.
262
She had five heavy sweaters.
263
For two weeks, you only need two sweaters.
264
You can wear them again.
265
That is so true.
266
Nobody at the museum knows that you wore the same sweater three days ago.
267
Exactly.
268
People on vacation worry too much about fashion.
269
Comfort is much more important when you are walking all day.
270
Yes.
271
When I travel, I like comfortable jeans and simple t-shirts.
272
What is your tip for putting the clothes inside the suitcase?
273
Ah, this is my favorite travel trick, Paul.
274
Do not fold your clothes flat.
275
You must roll them like a little tube.
276
Roll them?
277
Like a pancake?
278
Yes, like a pancake or a burrito.
279
When you roll your shirts and pants tightly, they become very small.
280
Wow!
281
Does that really save space?
282
It saves so much space.
283
And here's a bonus.
284
Your clothes do not get many wrinkles when you roll them.
285
That is amazing.
286
So you do not need to use an iron at the hotel.
287
I hate ironing when I'm on vacation.
288
Nobody likes ironing on vacation.
289
So we rolled all of Sarah's shirts and pants.
290
We put the heavy shoes at the bottom of the bag.
291
And did everything fit inside the suitcase?
292
Yes, everything fit perfectly.
293
And we even had some empty space at the top.
294
Empty space?
295
That is a miracle.
296
Why is empty space good?
297
Because when you visit a new city like London, you might buy souvenirs.
298
A new hat, some chocolates, or a nice book.
299
You need space to bring them home.
300
Ah, you are so smart, Emily.
301
If the bag is completely full when you leave your house, you cannot buy anything new.
302
That is right.
303
Sarah was so happy.
304
She gave me a big hug and said, Thank you, Emily.
305
You are a packing wizard.
306
A packing wizard.
307
You really are.
308
You helped your friend feel calm, just like I helped my colleagues feel calm with donuts.
309
Look at us, Paul.
310
We are solving problems everywhere this week.
311
We really are.
312
Real life brings many small problems, but speaking calmly and sharing practical tips makes everything better.
313
Yes.
314
Today we talked about two very different situations, but they have something in common.
315
Yes.
316
Let us think about what we discussed today.
317
We started with my office story about David and Jessica.
318
Right.
319
And we remembered that when people work under pressure, they can feel stressed and say direct things.
320
But we do not need to stay angry.
321
We can use positive words and take a small break together.
322
A simple cup of coffee or tea can fix a hard day at work.
323
Exactly.
324
Kind words and a short break help us understand each other better.
325
Teamwork is much easier when we are friendly.
326
And then we talked about your friend Sarah and her big trip to London.
327
She had too many clothes and a very small suitcase.
328
Yes.
329
And we remembered that preparing for a trip does not need to be stressful if we We use simple rules.
330
We check the weather first so we know what to wear.
331
Then we make a simple paper list to separate what we really need from what we just want.
332
And finally, we roll our clothes like little tubes instead of folding them flat.
333
It saves space, prevents wrinkles, and leaves room for fun gifts on the way home.
334
Wow, we really talked about so many useful things today.
335
the office desk to the airport suitcase.
336
Yes!
337
That is what real English conversation is all about.
338
Using simple words to talk about our daily lives, our problems, and our solutions.
339
I feel like I learned so much today, Emily.
340
Not just vocabulary, but great life advice.
341
Me too, Paul.
342
I always enjoy our conversations.
343
Time flies so fast when we are chatting.
344
It really does.
345
Look at the clock.
346
We are almost at the end of our episode today.
347
Oh, wow.
348
You are right.
349
Well, before we say our final goodbye to everyone, we have a fun question for all of you listening at home.
350
Yes, we would love to read your thoughts.
351
Please leave a comment below this video and answer our question.
352
Here is the question.
353
What is harder for you, dealing with a difficult day at work or packing a suitcase for a long trip?
354
Oh, that is a fantastic question.
355
Tell us about your experiences in the comments.
356
Do you use lists when you travel or do you have a funny work story?
357
We read every single comment and we love practicing English with you in the comments section.
358
Yes, we do.
359

366
See you in the next episode, friends.
367

369

이 영상이 초보자에게 좋은 이유
이번 영상은 유튜브 영어 공부에 딱 맞는 실전 대화 자료입니다. 직장 생활과 일상 이야기를 중심으로 한 친구 간의 대화는 자연스러운 리듬과 일상적인 표현이 가득해, 단순히 문법을 배우는 것보다 실제로 말할 때 필요한 말하기 감각을 길러줍니다. 특히 IELTS 스피킹 준비생들에게도 좋은데, 평가에서 중요하게 보는 '자연스러운 의사소통'을 연습할 수 있기 때문이죠.
자연스러운 표현 분석
- "Work is a little crazy this week." : "crazy"를 사용해 일이 바빠서 힘들다는 것을 간단히 표현. 직장에서 자주 쓰는 구체적인 표현으로, "바빠서 미치겠어"보다 자연스럽습니다.
- "He is a very nice man, but he is always very busy." : "but"을 사용해 대조를 강조. 친구와 이야기할 때 흔히 쓰는 구조로, 문장이 단순하면서도 의미가 분명합니다.
- "Tell me everything." : 호기심을 표현하는 간단한 구문. "모든 걸 말해줘"보다 더 친밀하고 자연스러운 느낌을 줍니다.
실전 연습 방법: Shadowing
이 대화를 활용한 shadow speech 연습법을 알려드립니다. 먼저 영상을 5초씩 멈추면서 화자의 발음, 억양, 리듬을 따라합니다. 그다음 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교해보세요. shadowing site를 사용하면 더 효과적이에요. 하루에 10분씩 반복하면, 1주일 만에 자연스러운 발화 속도와 억양이 향상될 거예요. 특히 "shadowspeaks" 같은 도구를 이용하면 실시간으로 비교할 수 있어 좋습니다.
이렇게 실제 대화를 따라하는 연습은 단어나 문법을 외우는 것보다 훨씬 실용적입니다. 매일 10분, 꾸준히 하다 보면 영어로 이야기할 때 부담이 줄어들고, 자신감도 생길 거예요!
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.
