1
Hello, everyone.
2
Welcome back to the channel Simply Real English,
3
the podcast where we help you speak English naturally and with total confidence.
4
I'm your host, Leo.
5
Today, we are tackling a question that makes almost everyone nervous.
6
Tell me about yourself.
7
To help us master this,
8
I am joined today by a very special guest.
9
She is an expert English communication coach who has helped thousands of students move from nervous to fluent.
10
Please welcome to the show, Sarah.
11
Hi, Leo.
12
Thank you so much for that lovely introduction.
13
It is wonderful to be here.
14
We're glad to have you, Sarah.
15
Before we start, I have to ask,
16
how are you feeling today?
17
I'm doing great, Leo.
18
I'm really excited to be here.
19
It's a beautiful sunny day,
20
and I've been looking forward to sharing these tips with your audience.
21
How about you?
22
How's your morning going?
23
I'm feeling very energized.
24
I had a great cup of coffee,
25
and I'm ready to dive into today's topic.
26
That's the spirit.
27
You know, Leo, even I used to get nervous introducing myself when I was younger,
28
so I know exactly how our listeners feel.
29
That makes me feel much better.
30
You know, I hear from our listeners every day that they feel stuck when they have to introduce themselves.
31
They know the words, but they don't feel…confident.
32
That's exactly right, Leo.
33
Most students treat an introduction like a grammar test,
34
but an introduction is actually a bridge.
35
It's how you connect with a new person.
36
Today, I want to teach your listeners how to do it with E-A-S-E.
37
That's E-A-S-E.
38
Ease?
39
I like that.
40
It sounds relaxing.
41
Exactly.
42
We want you to feel cool, calm, and collected.
43
We'll cover your name, your location,
44
your family, and your fun fact.
45
And listeners, if you have a notebook, grab it now.
46
We're going to practice together.
47
Before we dive in, I have a small favor to ask.
48
If you are enjoying our podcast,
49
please like this video and subscribe to the Simply Real English channel.
50
It really helps us make more videos for you.
51
Let's start with the basics.
52
Your name.
53
Most students say, I am...
54
Is that wrong?
55
It's not wrong, but it's a bit stiff.
56
To sound more natural, use a contraction.
57
Say, I'm Sarah.
58
I'm Leo.
59
It sounds much friendlier.
60
Right.
61
Now, here is a pro tip.
62
If your name is hard to pronounce, give people a bridge.
63
Say, my name is James Marsden,
64
but you can call me James.
65
Let's try that.
66
Listeners, repeat after Sarah.
67
My name is Alberto, but my friends all call me Al.
68
Good.
69
That makes the other person feel comfortable immediately.
70
Step 2 is location.
71
I usually just say, I'm from Italy.
72
That's okay, but let's add some flavor.
73
Use the word originally.
74
Oh, like, I'm originally from Rome,
75
but now I'm based in London.
76
Perfect.
77
Using based in sounds very professional.
78
Let's practice the present perfect for a moment.
79
Sarah, how do I say how long I've been here?
80
Use this structure.
81
I've been living in London for eight years.
82
Listeners, repeat that.
83
I've been living in Madrid for three years.
84
Excellent.
85
This tells a story, not just a fact.
86
Now, step three.
87
Sarah, in many cultures, family is the first thing we talk about.
88
How do we do that in English without oversharing?
89
Great point.
90
Don't list every cousin.
91
Use the word siblings for brothers and sisters.
92
So, instead of, I have two brothers and one sister,
93
I say, I have three siblings.
94
Or, if you have none,
95
say, I'm an only child.
96
I like that.
97
What if I want to talk about my kids?
98
Keep it simple.
99
I'm a mother of two.
100
Or, I have a five-year-old son.
101
Let's practice.
102
I'm one of four siblings,
103
and most of my extended family lives in Brazil.
104
Extended family.
105
That's a B1-level phrase.
106
It means aunts, uncles, and grandparents.
107
Next, step four.
108
Hobbies.
109
Everyone says, I like swimming.
110
Let's be more exciting.
111
Use the phrase, I'm really into… I'm really into vintage movies.
112
Yes, and here is the confidence secret.
113
End with a fun fact.
114
Use this sentence.
115
One thing you may not know about me is… Oh,
116
one thing you may not know about me is that I can cook a perfect lasagna.
117
See?
118
Now I want to keep talking to you.
119
It's a great conversation starter.
120
Listeners, try it.
121
One thing you may not know about me is… Good.
122
We've covered a lot.
123
Let's review the ease method.
124
E. Engage with a smile and a contraction.
125
A. Add detail to your location.
126
S. Share a bit of family or work.
127
E. End with a fun fact.
128
This was so helpful, Sarah.
129
Thank you so much for joining us.
130
It was my pleasure, Leo.
131
Remember, listeners, context is everything.
132
Use the EASE method to build your bridge to new people.
133
Exactly.
134
And before you go, please don't forget to subscribe to Simply Real English for more lessons like this.
135
And we want to hear from you.
136
You can write your own EASE introduction in the comments below.
137
We would love to read them.
138
Thanks for watching, and we'll see you in the next episode.
139
Bye-bye!

(Calma, Nome, Localização, Família e Fato Divertido), você aprenderá a estruturar uma introdução que não só compartilha informações sobre você, mas também cria uma conexão com o ouvinte. O objetivo é transformar um momento que pode ser nervoso em uma apresentação leve e agradável.

Dicas de Prática

Para aprimorar sua habilidade de se apresentar em inglês, uma técnica eficaz é o shadowing em inglês. Isso envolve ouvir a gravação do vídeo e repetir as falas em tempo real, imitando a pronúncia e a entonação do falante. O ritmo tranquilo eê a forma confiante com que Leo e Sarah falam no vídeo são ideais para a prática. Durante essa atividade, tente se concentrar nas pausas e na emoção que eles transmitem. Isso não só melhorará sua fala, mas também ajudará a desenvolver uma conexão emocional com o que você está dizendo.

Utilize um shadowing site que ofereça recursos para estudantes, onde você pode encontrar vídeos semelhantes para praticar. Quando estiver confortável, experimente apresentar-se para um amigo ou um parceiro de conversação ao vivo. Essa prática de conversação em inglês permitirá que você sinta como suas habilidades melhoraram.

Lembre-se, o objetivo é se sentir cool, calm, and collected enquanto se apresenta! Com o tempo e prática, você se tornará mais confiante a cada apresentação.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
