1
Hello everyone!
2
Welcome back to English on the Way, the fun and easy way to learn English.
3
I'm Charles.
4
And I'm Rachel.
5
Hi everyone!
6
We are so happy you're here with us today.
7
Yes, so happy!
8
Before we start, please subscribe to our channel.
9
It helps us grow and make more episodes for you.
10
That's right.
11
And give us a like, a big thumbs up.
12
Share this with your friends who are also learning.
13
Today, we have a very important topic.
14
It is a little serious, but it is very helpful.
15
Oh, what is it, Charles?
16
Is it a secret?
17
Not a secret, but a question many students ask.
18
The topic is, why your English isn't improving.
19
Ooh, that is a hard one.
20
I hear that a lot.
21
Rachel, I study every day, but I don't feel better at English.
22
I know that feeling.
23
It is frustrating.
24
You work hard, but you feel like you are standing still.
25
Well, today we are going to find out why.
26
We have ten reasons and we have ten solutions.
27
Exactly.
28
Let's start with number one.
29
Rachel, do you know people who study for hours and hours?
30
Yes.
31
They have big books, they watch many lessons, they have many notes.
32
That is the problem.
33
They are studying too much, but they are not using English.
34
Wait, how can you study too much?
35
Well, it is about passive versus active.
36
If you only watch videos and read books, your brain is just receiving information.
37
Ah, I see.
38
It's like watching a person cook a cake on TV but never going into the kitchen to bake one.
39
That is a perfect example.
40
You know the recipe, but you don't have a cake.
41
To improve, you must use it.
42
You must speak or write every day.
43
So if I learn five new words, I should try to say them in a sentence?
44
Yes.
45
Speak them to your cat.
46
Write them in a diary or send a message to a friend.
47
Production is the key.
48
That makes sense.
49
I often just consume movies, but I don't produce any English after.
50
I need to change that.
51
That leads us to reason number two, the fear of making mistakes.
52
Oh, this is the big one.
53
I am so afraid of sounding silly.
54
Everyone is, Rachel.
55
It's like a cold wall in front of you.
56
You want to speak, but you are afraid the grammar is wrong.
57
But isn't it bad to make mistakes?
58
No. Mistakes are not failure.
59
Mistakes are the only way to learn.
60
If you don't make mistakes, you are not trying anything new.
61
So, if I say, I go to the store yesterday, it's okay?
62
It's more than okay.
63
I understood you.
64
We are communicating.
65
That is the goal.
66
I feel better now.
67
I focus so much on being perfect that I just stay quiet.
68
And that is reason number three.
69
You are focused on perfection, not communication.
70
What is the difference?
71
Perfection is having no mistakes.
72
Communication is sharing an idea.
73
Native speakers make mistakes too, Rachel.
74
Really?
75
All the time.
76
But we don't stop talking to check a grammar book.
77
We just keep going.
78
If the other person understands, you win.
79
I love that.
80
If they understand, you win.
81
I will remember that next time I'm nervous at a café.
82
Now, reason number four is about time.
83
Consistency.
84
I know, I know.
85
I study for three hours on Sunday and then nothing until next Sunday.
86
Is that bad?
87
Three hours is a lot of time.
88
It is a lot, but your brain still forgets things without repetition.
89
English is like a plant.
90
It needs a little water every day, not a bucket of water once a week.
91
A little water every day.
92
I like that.
93
So 10 minutes every day is better than 3 hours on Sunday?
94
Much better.
95
Your brain needs to see English often to know it is important.
96
It builds a habit.
97
That is like our brain training episode.
98
Small steps every day to build the highway.
99
Exactly.
100
And that leads us to reason number five, real English.
101
Real English?
102
You mean textbooks are fake?
103
Not fake, but controlled.
104
Textbooks are like a zoo.
105
The animals are there, but they are quiet.
106
Real English is like the jungle.
107
The jungle.
108
People speak fast.
109
They use slang.
110
They have different accents.
111
Yes.
112
If you only use textbooks, you will be shocked when you hear a real person.
113
You need to immerse yourself.
114
So, I should watch YouTube or listen to this podcast?
115
Yes.
116
Find things you enjoy.
117
If you like cooking, watch cooking videos in English.
118
If you like cars, read about cars.
119
Use real-world content.
120
It makes it more fun, too.
121
It doesn't feel like homework if I am watching a movie I love.
122
Right.
123
But when you watch that movie, you need reason number six, active recall.
124
Active recall?
125
That sounds like a robot word.
126
It just means remembering on purpose.
127
Passive learning is just looking.
128
Active recall is closing the book and asking, what did I just learn?
129
Oh.
130
So, after a podcast, I should stop and try to remember three new things.
131
Yes.
132
Don't just move to the next video.
133
Stop.
134
Think.
135
What did Charles say about mistakes?
136
When you pull the information out of your brain, it stays there forever.
137
That is a great tip.
138
I usually just finish a video and go to sleep.
139
No. Spend one minute thinking about it.
140
That one minute is more important than 20 minutes of watching.
141
OK.
142
I'm taking notes.
143
What is reason number seven?
144
This one is about the bridge in your head.
145
You are not thinking in English.
146
Ah, yes, the translation bridge.
147
I hear English, I translate it to my language, I think of an answer, and I translate it back.
148
It's so slow, right?
149
It makes you feel tired.
150
tired, and by the time I have the answer, the conversation has moved on.
151
We need to break that bridge.
152
Like we said before, start with small thoughts.
153
I am hungry.
154
The sun is hot.
155
I've been trying that, Charles.
156
This morning I saw my coffee and I thought, this coffee is very hot.
157
I didn't translate.
158
That is it.
159
That is a victory!
160
The more you do that, the faster the English highway becomes.
161
And what about reason number eight?
162
This one is very practical.
163
You don't have a clear speaking routine.
164
A routine?
165
Like brushing my teeth?
166
Exactly!
167
You need a time every day where you must speak, even if you are alone.
168
I talk to my cat in the morning.
169
Is that a routine?
170
It is!
171
Hello Mittens!
172
It is 7am.
173
I am making breakfast.
174
That is a speaking routine.
175
If you don't have one, you will never feel ready to speak to a person.
176
So I should plan my speaking time.
177
Maybe five minutes while I drive or five minutes in the shower?
178
Yes!
179
Your mouth muscles need the exercise.
180
It's a mouth gym, Rachel!
181
I'm going to the mouth gym today.
182
Good!
183
Now reason number nine is similar to the first one.
184
You are consuming but not producing.
185
Is that the same as studying too much?
186
It's a bit different.
187
Consuming is listening and reading.
188
Producing is speaking and writing.
189
Most students do 90% consuming and 10% producing.
190
That is me.
191
I listen to podcasts all day, but I don't write anything.
192
We need to balance it, 50-50.
193
If you listen for 10 minutes, try to speak or write for 10 minutes.
194
That sounds hard, but I see why it works.
195
It completes the cycle.
196
It does.
197
It makes the English yours.
198
You don't just know the word, you own the word.
199
I own the word.
200
I like that feeling.
201
And finally, reason number ten, unrealistic expectations about speed.
202
Everyone wants to be fluent in one month.
203
The internet says, learn English in seven days.
204
Is that possible, Charles?
205
No, it is not.
206
Learning a language is a marathon, not a hundred-meter sprint.
207
Sometimes I feel sad because I still make mistakes after a year.
208
Don't be sad, Rachel.
209
Look back.
210
A year ago, could you talk about active recall or brain highways?
211
No. A year ago I could only say, Hello and my name is Rachel.
212
See?
213
You are improving.
214
But improvement is slow.
215
It's like a tree growing.
216
You don't see it move, but one day it is tall.
217
That is a very beautiful thought.
218
I need to be patient with myself.
219
Yes.
220
Be kind to yourself.
221
If you are frustrated, it means you care.
222
And if you care, you will succeed.
223
Wow, we covered a lot.
224
Let's do a quick review for our listeners.

252
That is a great list.
253
If you do these things, I promise you will see your English improve.
254
I feel so much more motivated now.
255
It's not that I'm bad at English.
256
I just need to change my habits.
257
Exactly.
258
You have the power to change.
259
Every day is a new chance to build that highway.
260

I enjoyed it too.

이 수업에 대한 설명
이 수업에서는 영어 실력이 향상되지 않는 이유에 대해 알아보고, 이를 극복하기 위한 10가지 방법을 제시합니다. 특히, 단순히 정보를 수집하는 수동적인 학습이 아닌, 적극적으로 영어를 사용해야 한다는 점에 중점을 두고 실질적인 연습 방법을 제안할 것입니다. 여러분의 영어 실력을 향상시키기 위해 매일 생산적으로 영어를 사용하도록 권장합니다.
주요 어휘 및 구문
- 능동적 vs. 수동적 - 정보의 소비와 생산의 차이
- 쉐도잉 (Shadowing) - 원어민의 발음을 따라 말하는 연습
- 생산 - 영어를 사용하여 문장을 만들거나 대화하기
- 일기 - 매일 영어로 생각이나 경험을 기록하기
- 비디오 보기 - 다양한 영어 콘텐츠를 소비하는 것
- 커뮤니케이션 - 친구와 메시지를 주고받거나 직접 대화하기
연습 팁
영어 실력을 향상시키기 위해서는 쉐도잉 연습이 매우 중요합니다. 이 비디오에서 제시된 발음과 억양을 따라하며 연습해 보세요. 비디오의 속도를 조절할 수 있다면 자신에게 맞는 속도로 시작하는 것이 좋습니다. 처음에는 느린 속도로 듣고, 따라 말한 후 점점 빠른 속도로 연습해 보세요.
또한, 유튜브 영어 공부를 할 때는 단순히 보고 듣는 것에 그치지 말고, 직접 말을 해보는 것도 필수입니다. 친구나 가족과 대화하면서 실력을 쓸 수 있는 기회를 만들어보세요. 영어 쉐도잉을 통해 자신감 있게 발음을 연습하고, shadow speech로 특정 구문을 반복적으로 연습함으로써 자연스럽게 영어를 사용할 수 있는 능력을 키우세요.
마지막으로, 학습한 단어와 구문들을 매일 사용해보세요. 간단한 일기로 시작하여 당신의 일상적인 생각을 영어로 표현하는 것이 가장 좋은 시작입니다. 기록한 내용을 친구들과 공유하며 실제 대화 속에서 활용해 보세요. shadowspeak의 힘으로 여러분의 영어 실력을 한 단계 끌어올려 보세요!
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.
