1
A conversation requires a balance between talking and listening, and somewhere along the way, we lost that balance.
2
So I'd like to spend the next 10 minutes or so teaching you how to talk and how to listen.
3
I'm going to teach you how to interview people, and that's actually going to help you learn how to be better conversationalists.
4
Number one, don't multitask.
5
I mean, be present.
6
Don't be thinking about your argument you have with your boss, don't be thinking about what you're going to have for dinner.
7
If you want to get out of the conversation, get out of the conversation.
8
Number two, don't pontificate.
9
If you wanted to state your opinion without any opportunity for response, write a blog.
10
You need to enter every conversation, assuming that you have something to learn.
11
Bill Nye, everyone you will ever meet knows something that you don't.
12
Number three, use open-ended questions.
13
In this case, take a cue from journalists.
14
Start your questions with who, what, where, when, why or how.
15
If you put in a complicated question, you're going to get a simple answer out.
16
were you terrified, you're going to respond to the most powerful word in that sentence, which is terrified, and the answer is, yes, I was or no, I wasn't.
17
Try asking them things like, what was that like?
18
How did that feel?
19
Number four, go with the flow.
20
Thoughts will come into your mind, and you need to let them go out of your mind.
21
We're sitting there having a conversation with someone, and then we remember that time that we met Hugh Jackman in a coffee shop, and we stop listening.
22
Stories and ideas are going to come to you, you need to let them come and let them go.
23
Number five, if you don't know, say that you don't know.
24
Now, people on the radio, especially on NPR, are much more aware that they're going on the record.
25
And so they're more careful about what they claim to be an expert in and what they claim to know for sure. Do that.
26
Err on the side of caution.
27
Number six, don't equate your experience with theirs.
28
If they're talking about having lost a family member, don't start talking about the time that you lost a family member.
29
It is never the same.
30
All experiences are individual.
31
Number seven, try not to repeat yourself.
32
It's condescending and it's really boring.
33
And we tend to do it a lot.
34
We have a point to make, so we just keep rephrasing it over and over.
35
Don't do that.
36
Number eight, stay out of the weeds.
37
Frankly, people don't care about the years, the names, the dates.
38
They don't care.
39
Number nine, listen.
40

41
Stephen Covey said it very beautifully.
42
He said, Most of us don't listen with the intent to understand.

We listen with the intent to reply.

All of this boils down to the same basic concept, and it is this one.
46
Be interested in other people.
47
Go out, talk to people, listen to people, and most importantly, be prepared to be amazed.
48
Thanks.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
