쉐도잉 연습: Why are so many Foreigners leaving Da Nang? - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

레슨 만드는 중...
1
Moving from a Western country to Vietnam is a massive shift.
2
People from all over the world are moving to Da Nang in search of a better lifestyle, but not everyone feels like they can fit in here.
3
I've been living in Vietnam for seven years now, so I want to talk about some of the habits
4
and routines that I have that make Vietnam feel more like home and not somewhere that I'm just visiting.
5
The goal is to feel like you're not just a tourist on vacation forever.
6
So my first tip is become a regular at a local coffee shop.
7
There's a bunch of cool fancy coffee shops all over town and those are great every once in a while.
8
You should try to find the most casual local joint walking distance from your house.
9
It's a great feeling when you show up, see a familiar face behind the counter.
10
Staff recognize you so you don't even need to order but they already know what you're drinking.
11
A place like this is fundamentally different than a coffee shop with a bunch of foreigners working on laptops with headphones in.
12
Most foreigners are going to have trouble feeling like they fit into the community when they first arrive.
13
It was a good place to start.
14
And believe it or not, the coffee is probably better here too.
15
This next tip is going to sound very obvious, but hear me out.
16
You've got to go to the beach.
17
Now you're probably thinking that's the main reason I want to move there.
18
Of course I'm going to go to the beach every day.
19
You think you're going to go to the beach every day, and you might go a lot at first.
20
The longer you're here, you can start to take the beach for granted
21
if you don't make an effort to make it a part of your routine.
22
When I first moved to Da Nang, I lived walking distance from the beach and I would go probably four or five times a week.
23
Then I moved to the city side, so now I'm about a ten minute motorbike drive away.
24
I didn't think that would make any difference at all, but now weeks go by and I realize I haven't gone to the beach.
25
I used to think it was a me problem.
26
I would make excuses like, oh, I'm too busy.
27
I'm not too busy.
28
I make YouTube videos for a living.
29
I technically don't have to do anything.
30
But a lot of my friends that have lived here for a long time, they all say they wish they went to the beach more often.
31
So lately I try to make it a habit, go to the beach at least once a week no matter what.
32
Usually no camera, just have a drink, throw up the hammock, quick dip in the water.
33
The beach is clearly one of the best parts about living here and it's a good reminder that life is good.
34
There's nothing to be stressed about.
35
Now let's talk about the language.
36
Learning Vietnamese is probably the biggest factor to how comfortably you can live in Vietnam long term.
37
I'll be honest with you, Vietnamese is hard.
38
There's no shortcuts, there's no easy way around it.
39
But I'm not telling you to become fluent.
40
learn some of the basics.
41
Start real slow and you'll improve over time.
42
A little bit goes a long way.
43
I've spent years trying to learn Vietnamese.
44
I've taken one-to-one lessons with teachers.
45
I try to interact in Vietnamese whenever possible and I'm still nowhere near where I want to be.
46
But I can at least have basic conversations with anybody I come across.
47
I'm comfortable to navigate tricky situations.
48
I can talk to my neighbors.
49
I feel like everyone treats me normally rather than just with a random foreigner that lives on the block.
50
Vietnamese people are easily impressed.
51
A couple words and phrases here and there is gonna show them that you're making an effort.
52
From their perspective, 99% of foreigners can't speak one word of Vietnamese.
53
So simple, Chiao Kho, or hello, auntie, is gonna prove to them that you're not just a tourist passing through for a few days.
54
So my advice is to start learning as soon as possible.
55
A lot of people think they're just gonna pick it up along the way.
56
It's not really how it works.
57
There's a lot of different options for learning.
58
You can find a private teacher.
59
You can go to a language school.
60
There's language exchange meetups.
61
If you put in some effort, you'll start to make progress.
62
It could be the one thing that makes or breaks your experience here.
63
By the way, this is called Nook Mia, sugar cane juice.
64
Highly recommend it on a hot day.
65
The weather's taken a bit of a turn.
66
I really hope this doesn't ruin my day today.
67
Something that will ruin your day is buying an overpriced SIM card from the airport that stops working after a few days.
68
So I've been recommending eSIMs for years now, and I've used Airlo in at least seven different countries.
69
They're the leading eSIM company worldwide, and they've got data packages in more than 200 destinations.
70
eSIMs are 100% digital.
71
You don't need a physical SIM card.
72
You just download the Aerolo app, choose a package.
73
You'll be set up with data in minutes.
74
I've got a discount code you can use.
75
Enter Travis T3.
76
You'll get $3 off your first eSIM.
77
You don't need to wait in line to pick up a sketchy SIM card from the airport.
78
Just use an eSIM from Aerolo and your data is automatically going to connect the moment you land in a new country.
79
I'll have my link and code down in the description or you can scan the QR code over here.
80
So download Aerolo today.
81
Use the code Travis T3.
82
You'll get $3 off your first eSIM.
83
Let's hope this weather clears up and go whack some golf balls.
84
Let's talk about some activities you can get involved with.
85
I like drinking beers on the beach as much as the next guy.
86
Alright, let's be honest.
87
I probably like it more than the next guy.
88
But believe it or not, drinking beers on the beach can get old pretty quickly.
89
So I try to stay active, keep myself real busy with a lot of different hobbies.
90
That way when I do start drinking, I feel like I've earned it.
91
We throw a big group party for my travel group every month.
92
I tend to get pretty loose at those things.
93
So if you are moving to Danai, check out the group.
94
It's going to help you get settled in.
95
You can meet a lot of interesting people.
96
And there's plenty of activities you can get involved in.
97
So I've recently got hooked on golf.
98
I come to the driving range almost every single day.
99
I play at the indoor simulators occasionally.
100
Try to get a round in at the course here and there.
101
But you don't have to play golf.
102
I used to think golf was boring too.
103
There's also badminton, pickleball, beach volleyball, jujitsu, whatever you're into, there's gonna be a group in Da Nang doing that thing.
104
It also doesn't have to be something athletic.
105
There's art classes, board game cafes.
106
You can also volunteer your time.
107
You can visit local orphanages, teach an English class for Vietnamese kids, or join a beach cleanup project.
108
These are all great ways to find some purpose here and actually contribute something to the local community.
109
I think having a couple of things like this in your weekly routine makes a massive difference when you're living here.
110
You start seeing the same people every week.
111
You can make friends naturally.
112
You want to have some planned events on your calendar
113
that don't involve just going to get something to eat or getting pissed.
114
Moving somewhere like Da Nang is probably going to give you a lot more time and freedom.
115
It's up to you what you want to do with that.
116
The beach and cheap beers are great, but they're not going to fulfill you long term.
117
Just like that, look how quickly the weather can change.
118
Summer ain't done with us yet.
119
So listen, there's a reason why everyone's talking about Da Nang lately.
120
This place is pretty awesome.
121
Seems like it's the trendiest city in the world right now.
122
And there's a lot of foreigners that are moving here expecting this to be the long-term play.
123
But then some people don't end up lasting very long.
124
And the reasons people leave are usually not what you expect.
125
It's not because the prices have gone up or there's too much construction noise.
126
It's usually because people didn't find community.
127
They felt like outsiders.
128
Of course there's plenty of things to complain about.
129
No city in the world is perfect.
130
But if you're willing to accept Vietnam's flaws, you're going to realize there's way more pros than cons.
131
There's plenty of people, including me, that absolutely love Da Nam.
132
There's nowhere in the world I would rather live.
133
So what is the difference?
134
Why do some people fall in love with this place, but for others it never really clicks?
135
I think you have to make an effort to build a life here with hobbies
136
and routines that make you excited to get out of bed every day.
137
You gotta find some purpose and you gotta get involved with the local community.
138
You don't want to end up living like a tourist on vacation.
139
You want to build a life here that you don't need a vacation from.
140
I really appreciate you guys watching till the end.
141
See you in the next video over here.
142
Peace.

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.
