Hello everyone and welcome back to the channel.
2
Today we are going to practice English by listening to a simple everyday conversation.
3
Our topic is Introducing Yourself.
4
You will hear two college students meeting for the first time.
5
They will talk about their names, studies, hometowns, hobbies, and daily life.
6
Listen carefully and try to follow the conversation.
7
I will speak slowly and clearly so you can practice with me.
8
Before we begin, here is one simple question.
9
What does Noah study at college?

Same.

Let me check my phone.

Sure.
35
It says we need to go upstairs.

Okay.
37
Let's go.
38
Wait.
39
What happened?
40
I think we are already inside the right building.
41
Oh, we are?
42
Yes.
43
Look at that sign.

That's cool.
148
Sometimes I take photos of my friends too.
149
Do you use a professional camera?
150
Sometimes, but I usually use my phone.
151
Same with me.
152
What do you do for fun?
153
I like playing basketball.
154
Really?
155
Yes.
156
I played basketball in high school.
157
Do you play here at the university?
158
I hope to.
159
There is a basketball court near the student center.
160
Really?
161
Yes.
162
I saw it yesterday.
163
Maybe we can play sometime.
164
Sure.
165
Do you watch basketball too?
166
Sometimes.
167
What's your favorite team?

I don't really have one.
169
That's okay.

Good.

Sometimes.
186
Does it help you study?
187
Sometimes, but sometimes I start singing instead.
188
Really?
189
Yes.
190
Then you probably don't get much studying done.
191
Exactly.
192
I understand.
193
What about you?
194
I need quiet when I study.
195
I see.
196
Too much noise makes it hard for me to focus.
197
That's understandable.
198
Speaking of studying, do you have your notebook?
199
Yes.
200
Let me check my bag.
201

237
And you're studying computer science?
238
Exactly.
239

240
We already remember a lot about each other.
241
That's true.
242
What do you mean?

276
That's simple.
277
Then say where you're from.
278
Then say what I study.
279
Exactly.
280
And then ask a question.
281
That's a good idea.
282
Like, where are you from?
283
Or, what do you study?
284
Or, what do you like to do?
285
Those are easy questions.
286

Exactly.
288

316
Welcome to your first week at the University, I hope everyone is doing well.
317
Today, we are going to start with a simple activity.
318
Please introduce yourself to the person sitting next to you.
319
Looks like we already did that.
320
Yes, we did.
321
Tell your partner your name, your major, and where you are from.
322
We can do that easily.
323
Definitely.
324
Then tell your partner one thing you enjoy doing.
325
Photography.
326
Basketball.
327
Great.
328
Let's begin.
329
I think we're ready.
330
I think so, too.
331
So, what did you say your major was?
332
Computer science.
333
Right.
334
And you're studying business.
335
Correct.
336
You're from Chicago?
337
Yes.
338
And you're from Seattle?
339
Exactly.
340
I think we're good.
341
We are.
342
Thanks for helping me this morning.
343
You're welcome.
344
Especially with the paper.
345
Don't worry about it.
346
I'll bring my notebook tomorrow.
347
Good idea.
348
Maybe we can get coffee after class.
349
Sure.
350
I know a coffee shop near the library.
351
That sounds good.
352
Great.
353
See you after class.
354
See you.
355
The class begins and Noah and Sophie take their seats.
356
They arrived as strangers, but now they have already made a new friend.
357
Their first day at university suddenly feels much easier.
358
After class, they meet again outside the classroom.
359
That class was longer than I expected.
360
I agree.
361
But it was interesting.
362
Yes.
363
Are you still going to the coffee shop? Of course.
364
Great.
365
And maybe you can tell me more about Chicago?
366
Sure.
367
And I can tell you more about Seattle?
368
Sounds good.
369
I'm glad we met today.
370
Me too.
371
See you tomorrow, Sophie.
372
See you tomorrow, way to Noah.
373
Now let's review some useful English from today's conversation.
374
First, we learned the word major.
375
A major is the main subject that you study at college or university.
376
For example, my major is computer science.
377
Another useful pair of words is borrow and lend.
378
When you borrow something, you receive it from another person for a short time.
379
For example, can I borrow your pen?
380
When you lend something, you give it to another person for a short time.
381
For example, can you lend me your pen?
382
We also practice two useful questions. Could you repeat that?
383
And what do you mean?
384
These questions are helpful when you do not understand something.
385
Let's have a quick quiz.
386
What does major mean?
387
Is it your favorite hobby, your main college subject, or your hometown?
388
The answer is your main college subject.
389
Next question.
390
If Noah asks Sophie, can I borrow some paper?
391
What does he want?
392
He wants to receive some paper from Sophie for a short time, and Sophie lends the paper to him.
393
Now let's practice a simple introduction.
394
You can say, hi, my name is...
395
Then say, I'm from...
396
Then say, my major is… Finally, you can say, I like… For example, hi, my name is Noah.
397
I'm from Seattle.
398
My major is computer science.
399
I like basketball.
400
Now you can make your own introduction.
401
Before we finish, let's answer our question from the beginning.
402
What does Noah study at college?
403
The answer is computer science.
404
Noah studies computer science.
405
Did you remember the answer?
406
If you did, great job.
407
If you didn't, that's okay.
408
Listening gets easier with practice.
409
Now try to write one simple sentence in the comments.
410
You can write, Hi, my name is DKCC.
411
I'm from DCCC.
412
This is a simple way to practice introducing yourself in English.
413
Remember, you do not need perfect English to start a conversation.
414
Start with simple sentences, speak slowly, listen carefully, and keep practicing.
415
Our channel is all about learning everyday English through simple, practical conversations.

We practice listening, speaking, vocabulary, and useful expressions that you can use in real life.

Sobre esta lição
Você está praticando inglês com "🎬 Learn English Through a Simple Story! | Introducing Yourself in English" usando a técnica de Shadowing.
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.
