1
Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Enjoy English Talks, where every conversation helps you learn.
2
I'm Judy.
3
Hello, Judy.
4
Hello, everyone.
5
I'm Jake.
6
How are you today, Judy?
7
I'm doing well, thank you.
8
I woke up early this morning and made a list of things I want to do this year.
9
It felt really good.
10
And you, Jake?
11
I'm great.
12
I had a long walk with Max this morning, and while I was walking, I was thinking about my future.
13
Your future?
14
That sounds deep, Jake.
15
I know, right?
16
But it's true.
17
I was thinking about things I want to do, places I want to visit, skills I want to learn.
18
Well, that's perfect, because today we're talking about exactly that.
19
Really?
20
What's our topic?
21
Today we're talking about how to talk about your dreams and goals in English.
22
How do you say what you want?
23
How do you share your plans?
24
How do you talk about your future?
25
That's such a useful topic.
26
Let's do it.
27
But first, we have a small request.
28
Yes.

32
Thank you.
33
It helps us so much.
34
We love our listeners.
35
Okay.
36
Now let's start.
37
So, Judy, why is it important to talk about dreams and goals?
38
That's a great question.
39
When you learn English, you don't just learn grammar and words.
40
You learn to express yourself.
41
And one of the most important things you can express is what you want in life.
42
Like when someone asks, what do you want to do in the future?
43
Exactly.
44
Maybe someone at work asks you.
45
Maybe a friend asks you.
46
Maybe you're writing about yourself.
47
You need the right words.
48
And I think many learners know what they want, but they don't know how to say it in English.
49
That's why we have five tips today.
50
Five ways to talk about your dreams and goals.
51
Each tip has special phrases you can use right away.
52
Five tips.
53
I'm ready.
54
Our first tip is called name your dream.
55
Name your dream?
56
What does that mean?
57
It means say your dream out loud.
58
Put it into words.
59
Many people have dreams inside their head, but they never say them.
60
Today, we're going to practice saying them.
61
Okay.
62
How do I start?
63
The easiest way is my dream is to, and then you say what you want.
64
For example, my dream is to travel the world.
65
My dream is to travel the world.
66
That sounds nice.
67
Or, my dream is to speak English fluently.
68
Ooh, my dream is to speak English fluently.
69
Fluently means smoothly and naturally.
70
That's my real dream.
71
See?
72
You just said it.
73
You named it.
74
And there's another way.
75
You can say, I've always wanted to.
76
This means you've had this dream for a long time.
77
I've always wanted to, um, I've always wanted to visit Japan.
78
Beautiful.
79
I've always wanted to visit Japan.
80
That tells me this dream has been in your heart for many years.
81
It has, since I was a kid.
82
I love the food, the culture, everything.
83
And there's one more way.
84
You can say, one day I'd like to… This is very soft and dreamy.
85
One day I'd like to open a small café.
86
One day I'd like to open a small cafe.
87
With pasta on the menu, of course. Of course.
88
So three phrases.
89
My dream is to, I've always wanted to, and one day I'd like to.
90
Got it.
91
Name your dream.
92
Say it out loud.
93
And here's the thing.
94
When you say your dream out loud, something changes.
95
It becomes real.
96
It's not just a thought in your head anymore.
97
It's a sentence.
98
It's words.
99
And words have power.
100
Words have power.
101
I believe that.
102
Try it now.
103
Listeners, pause the podcast.
104
Say one dream out loud.
105
Use my dream is two.
106
You can whisper it.
107
You can say it in your car.
108
Just say it.
109
And it's okay if your dream is small.
110
My dream is to read one English book.
111
That's a great dream.
112
Exactly.
113
Every dream matters.
114
Okay.
115
What's our second tip?
116
Our second tip is set a goal.
117
Set a goal.
118
Okay.
119
What's the difference between a dream and a goal?
120
Great question.
121
A dream is big and far away, like, I want to travel the world.
122
A goal is smaller and more specific, like, I want to visit two new countries this year.
123
Ah, I see.
124
A dream is the big picture.
125
A goal is the step you take.
126
Exactly.
127
And there are two types of goals, short-term goals and long-term goals.
128
Short-term and long-term.
129
Yes.
130
A short-term goal is something you want to do soon, this week, this month, this year.
131
A long-term goal is something for the future, in five years, in ten years.
132
Can you give me examples?
133
Sure.
134
A short-term goal, my goal is to read one English book this month.
135
A long-term goal, my goal is to become fluent in English in two years.
136
Let me try.
137
My short-term goal is to learn ten new English words this week.
138
Perfect.
139
And my long-term goal is to have a conversation in English without translating in my head.
140
That's a wonderful goal, Jake.
141
And notice the phrase, my goal is to.
142
Very simple, very clear.
143
My goal is to.
144
Easy to remember.
145
You can also say, I'm aiming to.
146
This sounds a bit more natural.
147
I'm aiming to finish this project by Friday.
148
I'm aiming to finish this project by Friday.
149
Yes, that sounds good.
150
The key is to make your goals specific.
151
Don't just say, I want to learn English.
152
Say, I want to learn five new words every day.
153
That's a goal you can measure.
154
Specific and measurable.
155
Measurable means you can count it or check it.
156
Got it.
157
And write it down.
158
When you write your goal on paper, you remember it better.
159
I write my goals in a small notebook.
160
Every morning, I read them.
161
I should try that.
162
Write my goals and read them every day.
163
What's our next tip?
164
Now, our third tip.
165
Talk about your plan.
166
Talk about my plan.
167
So I have a dream, I have a goal, now I need a plan?
168
Yes.
169
A plan is how you're going to reach your goal.
170
And in English, we have some great phrases for this.
171
Tell me.
172
The first one is, I'm going to.
173
This is for things you've decided to do.
174
I'm going to study English for 30 minutes every morning.
175
I'm going to study English for 30 minutes every morning.
176
That's a strong statement.
177
Yes, I'm going to shows you've already decided.
178
You're not thinking about it.
179
You're doing it.
180
What's another phrase?
181
I'm working on.
182
This means you've already started.
183
You're in the middle of doing something.
184
I'm working on my pronunciation.
185
I'm working on my pronunciation.
186
That's true, actually.
187
See?
188
It describes something you're already doing, not in the future, right now.
189
I like that.
190
It feels active, like I'm already moving.
191
Exactly.
192
And one more.
193
My plan is to.
194
This is like my goal is to, but it focuses on the action.
195
My plan is to practice shadowing every evening.
196
My plan is to practice shadowing every evening.
197
Perfect.
198
So, three phrases for talking about your plan.
199
I'm going to, I'm working on, and my plan is to.
200
Got it.
201
And here's a tip.
202
When someone asks you about your future, Don't just say what you want.
203
Say what you're doing about it.
204
That shows confidence.
205
So instead of I want to speak English better, I say I'm working on speaking English better.
206
Exactly.
207
Much stronger.
208
And people will take you more seriously.
209
That's true.
210
I'm working on it sounds more professional than I want to.
211
Yes.
212
Because I'm working on it means you've already started.
213
You're not just dreaming, you're doing.
214
Dreaming is good, but doing is better.
215
I love that Jake dreaming is good
216
but doing is better okay what's our next tip here comes

Short stories are books too.
232
And the fact that you started is amazing.
233
Most people just think about it.
234
You actually did it.
235
Thank you, Judy.
236
You can also say, so far I've.
237

240
Hmm.
241

200 words is a big step.
244
And notice how so far means up until now.

259
That means a lot.
260
And our last tip, encourage others.
261
Encourage others?
262
Why is this a tip about goals?
263
Because talking about dreams and goals isn't just about you.
264
It's about the people around you.
265
When you hear someone's dream, you can encourage them.
266
And when someone encourages you, it gives you energy.
267
That's true.
268
When you tell me, good job, I want to keep going.

So let me teach you some phrases.
271
The simplest one is, you can do it.
272
You can do it.
273

Yes.
275
And another one, don't give up.
276
When someone is struggling, this means a lot.

I'm so proud of you.
287
I'd love to hear that from someone.
288
Well, Jake, I'm so proud of you, really.
289
You practice English every day.
290
You show up, you try.
291
That takes courage.
292
Thank you, Judy.
293

294
And to all our listeners, we're proud of you, too.

297
Don't stop.
298
Don't stop.
299
You can do it.
300
And there's one more thing.
301
When you encourage someone, you're also encouraging yourself.
302
Saying you can do it reminds your brain that these things are possible.
303
That's true.
304
When I say don't give up to someone else, I feel stronger too.

I used to be scared of speaking, but now I'm more confident.
320

Para quem é este vídeo?
Se você é um iniciante no inglês e quer melhorar sua prática de conversação em inglês, especialmente para falar sobre sonhos e metas, este vídeo é perfeito! Ele ensina de forma simples como expressar seus planos futuros, seja em uma conversa com amigos, no trabalho ou em um texto sobre si mesmo. Ideal para quem já sabe os básicos, mas quer se sentir mais confiante ao compartilhar o que quer na vida.
Palavras e expressões valiosas para aprender
No diálogo, há algumas frases e termos que valem a pena "roubar" para sua própria conversação. Por exemplo: "made a list of things I want to do this year" (fiz uma lista de coisas que quero fazer este ano) – uma forma natural de falar sobre metas anuais. Outra é "thinking about my future" (pensando no meu futuro), que é mais suave do que "planejando meu futuro". E "skills I want to learn" (habilidades que quero aprender) é útil para falar sobre desenvolvimento pessoal. Essas expressões são fáceis de memorizar e usá-las vai fazer sua fala soar mais nativa.
Como melhorar a pronúncia nesse tema
Para se sentir mais confortável ao falar, tente o shadowing em inglês (técnica de repetir o que ouve imediatamente). No vídeo, os falantes usam uma entonação calmada e clara, perfeita para praticar. Preste atenção na palavra "dreams" (sonhos) – a pronúncia é "dri:mz", com o som "i:" prolongado. Já "goals" (metas) é "goulz", com o "ou" como em "cow". Repita frases como "What do you want to do in the future?" (O que você quer fazer no futuro?) imitando o ritmo e a entonação dos locutores. Essa prática de shadowspeaks ajuda a treinar a fluência e a confiança na fala.
Aprender inglês com vídeos como esse é uma forma divertida e eficaz de melhorar. Com essas dicas, você já está mais preparado para compartilhar seus sonhos e metas em inglês – e quem sabe, inspirar alguém com eles?
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.
