How long did it take you to become fluent in English?
2
These are actual comments that I received from you guys.
3
And honestly, a lot of the comments sound exactly like the thoughts that I used to have.
4
I know the feeling of,
5
why is this not working for me?
6
Because I've been studying English for years.
7
I know, I've been that too.
8
So instead of just replying in the comments about my English,
9
I turned on the camera.
10
We are going to read the comments together and I'll answer as honestly as I can.
11
I'm gonna give you a shout out.
12
Exciting!
13
And if I've ever screenshot your comment,
14
you might be in this video.
15
So let's get into it.
16
So yeah, I collected all the questions slash comments here and I'm gonna read them.
17
Should I read the name too?
18
Hmm.
19
Okay, the comment from English Habit.
20
When I tried to make up my own sentences,
21
the expressions didn't feel natural,
22
so I started memorizing sentences used by native speakers.
23
However, that only lasted for a brief moment.
24
I end up forgetting everything as time passes.
25
Do you happen to have your own method for remembering those sentences?
26
I'm curious to know how you developed your sense of English.
27
I'm not perfect either, but this question really made me think about how I got to this point where I am now.
28
So, 감사합니다.
29
Even if it sounds really awkward,
30
I think making sentences by directly translating from your own language is actually a really important starting point,
31
like words by words.
32
Even though it was not the way people naturally speak on a show or in your textbook,
33
once you become comfortable with this simple translated sentences,
34
that's when you start to notice things like,
35
this doesn't sound natural or like oh actually we have the similar expression in my language to develop that kind of イエ,
36
that kind of brain you have to build your language step by step
37
and to be honest i don't think that i use
38
that many fancy expressions i actually use a lot of directly
39
translated sentences more i actually made a video about studying english through scenes like movie and dramas.
40
It's similar to shadowing.
41
If you keep forgetting expressions or sentences,
42
it's probably because you're not saying them out loud enough.
43
The reason I said to empathize first in the video instead of focusing on perfect shadowing the sentences is
44
because at this stage, I just want you to listen once and say it and move on.
45
In the beginning, quantity might be more effective than quality.
46
How can you memorize everything perfectly after hearing the sentence once?
47
I can't even do that either.
48
But if you hear the same kind of expression in different situations,
49
maybe through movies and dramas,
50
then in a similar moment when you're there,
51
you'll start to think like,
52
oh is this the kind of expression people use in this situation?
53
That's how your sense develops.
54
Try them in a perfect way is the next step.
55
Don't try to force yourself to memorize everything,
56
just try try to connect it to your own memory and bring it out.
57
My name, Martin.
58
Hi, Martin.
59
Should I keep reading these names?
60
I'm so scared if I pronounce the names wrong.
61
Sorry if I said it wrong.
62
Did you live in Australia?
63
You sound Australian, not Canadian.
64
Yes, I did.
65
I actually made a video about my experience in Australia,
66
so you can check that out.
67
I think my accent is kind of a mix of everything to be honest.
68
I think I tried to fix or like change my accent
69
when I came to Vancouver but I decided to just leave it as it is
70
and I don't know but yeah I definitely have a bit of an Aussie accent in it.
71
Can you please share the name of the series that helped you in learning English?
72
There are honestly so many but I think I started with Gossip Girl because it was easy.
73
Easier than other TV shows.
74
And once I started understanding a bit more, I watched Grey's Anatomy.
75
Grey's Anatomy.
76
Grey's Anatomy.
77
A lot.
78
But actually, you know what?
79
Instead of looking for specific series,
80
I naturally focused more on finding actors who had the accent and pronunciation that I wanted.
81
Even when I watch shows i tend to really focus on just one person's english
82
because i like the way how
83
that person the specific one speaks i loved frankie doyle from
84
wentworth i think i'm smart do you great let's talk about you
85
and christina from gray's anatomy anatomy oh i can't also the
86
automatic paper towel thingy won't recognize me as human i'm just
87
standing there waving my hands like an idiot that's why i think youtube
88
and podcasts are even better you get to hear
89
that person's language more clearly how many time gone for you
90
learning english please reply my answer i'm shilpi hi shilpi from india
91
and i watch your video first time i really want to become yeah fluent
92
but i don't know how long it takes
93
so please give me some tips how yeah how we can
94
start it yeah i think not only for the comments i received like dms
95
and emails about this question
96
so in my case i had a basic sense of english for a long time
97
because i studied english when i was in like high school
98
but i couldn't really communicate even
99
when i moved to australia i was the same i could kind of respond by understanding the context
100
but i didn't truly speak english i think i really started improving after I came back to Korea during those two years.
101
The fact that I went to Australia didn't really improve my English
102
but it became a really strong motivation for me to study.
103
If I had to break down how I studied English to start,
104
I basically only consumed English content.
105
Movies, dramas, YouTube, everything in English.
106
The first thing that I did was changing my phone setting into English to see more English in my life.
107
So if you truly admire that future version of yourself who speaks English and you keep chasing it,
108
it will come true.
109
When filming an English video facing the camera,
110
what should I do if I come across something I don't know how to say?
111
For example, I don't know what something is called or how to express a certain idea.
112
I mean if this kind of situation happens several times,
113
the quality of the video will be gradually reduced and it won't be smooth to watch.
114
I don't think this is just a problem when you're filming in English.
115
It happens when you speak English in general, right?
116
Whether you're talking to a camera or to a person,
117
if you want to say something but you don't know how to say it
118
or you don't have the word in your brain,
119
just look it up right away.
120
That's what I do.
121
Even with my friends, whenever I hang out with my friends and I need to speak English,
122
they all know that I use my second language so
123
and they're willing to wait okay not knowing a language perfectly
124
is nothing to be ashamed of right i just say wait
125
a second what's the word what's the word what's the word
126
give me a second and then i look it up of course maybe not in an interview
127
but when you're filming your videos you can pause all the time
128
and you can re-say it the words
129
that you were gonna say i do it all the time the quality of the video
130
that you're concerning about or even the conversations will improve over time
131
and for more detailed tips on this i actually made a video about it
132
so please check it out
133
if you're watching this i love the way you think about learning a new language and I love your vibe.
134
I will use your video to practice shadowing.
135
Thank you so much.
136
Yes, as someone who learned by listening to so many podcasts,
137
watching so many YouTube videos and repeating after them,
138
this comment made me really really happy.
139
I stumbled upon this video by chance thanks to the algorithm.
140
Thank you.
141
Your pronunciation and voice are both beautiful you mentioned that you studied English using podcast.
142
Do you have any great tips for studying English conversation?
143
Thank you.
144
That's so cute.
145
For me, I started listening to podcasts about things I was actually interested in.
146
For you, that could be anything.
147
That could be relationships, friendships,
148
society, money, self-improvement, sports, anything like that.
149
From your perspective, try to find a YouTube channel or podcast that feels easy enough for you to understand and follow.
150
Something that you could even talk about with your friends and your family.
151
I think, maybe it's for me,
152
I think it's really important to find someone who has an accent or pronunciation you actually like.
153
So you want to copy them.
154
And when you listen, repeat it over and over until you can hear everything clearly what they say in the podcast.
155
At first, maybe you can't understand everything what this person says.
156
You might only get the brief idea,
157
general feeling and not fully understand everything.
158
That's okay.
159
You will listen to the same podcast multiple times.
160
I know it could be a bit boring
161
but at the same time it's actually really satisfying to graduate from one podcast at a time.
162
And once you reach a point where you understand it almost perfectly then move on to the next one.
163
You can find a next interest.
164
Please keep the content in English.
165
I have learned English like for years.
166
I'll keep making content that you guys need and you guys want
167
because having people who watch my videos gives me good motivation to keep going.
168
Let me know what you're curious about or what you want to hear.
169
But the reason why I don't only talk about English is because like I said earlier,
170
I learned English through a podcast.
171
We're going to talk about many different topics in English.
172
All of my videos are in English.
173
Whether English is difficult for you or comfortable for you,
174
you're all leaving comments in English on my videos.
175
to me that's all English content.
176
I really enjoyed answering your questions today.
177
I'll bring more next time.
178
This is just part one.
179
I think I'll come back with part two soon because I actually have more questions I think.
180
Not just questions but also comments I want to talk about and I am really grateful for that.
181
So I want to mention as many as I can
182
and I want you to feel like it's more about the conversations not just me talking
183
so i want to answer as many questions as i can
184
also i realized i haven't really asked you guys to leave the questions properly
185
so
186
if you have anything you're curious about leave a comment down
187
below anything is fine i will get back to you where
188
it doesn't even have to be about english right maybe i should do a personal q a some time too
189
but would you guys be curious about my personal life like who i am let me know if you want that.
190
See you next time and thank you.
191
Bye bye.
192
Past you in the library,
193
you glance up from your book You saw right through me with that vacant look Instead of studying for my exam,
194
I've been studying your face When you happen to turn your head my way,
195
my heart begins to raise You're so attractive,
196
you're in all my classes
197
I'm gonna find a way to see you more
198
and more I'm gonna find a way to see you more and more How's up in every door?
199
Now I'm sitting waiting, trying not to go insane Staring at your reflection in the wind and pain Ooh,
200
hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi

Por que praticar a fala com este vídeo?
Este vídeo oferece uma oportunidade única para aqueles que ainda não conseguem falar inglês fluentemente. Ao assistir, você poderá ouvir experiências de outros estudantes, refletindo sobre suas próprias dificuldades. Isso cria uma sensação de empatia e compreensão, essencial para o processo de aprendizagem. Em vez de se sentir isolado em suas lutas, você se junta a uma comunidade que compartilha as mesmas incertezas. Praticar a prática de conversação em inglês a partir de situações reais aumenta sua confiança e proporciona um contexto mais rico para a assimilação do idioma.
Gramática & Expressões no Contexto
Ao longo do vídeo, o falante aborda diversas estruturas que podem ser utilizadas para melhorar seu shadowing em inglês. Aqui estão algumas expressões chave que você pode prestar atenção:
- “Why is this not working for me?” – Uma excelente forma de expressar frustração e iniciar uma conversa sobre dificuldades.
- “I started memorizing sentences” – Esta estrutura é fundamental para discutir métodos de aprendizado e pode ser adaptada ao seu próprio estilo de estudo.
- “That only lasted for a brief moment” – O uso de expressões temporais ajuda a descrever experiências passadas e pode enriquecer seu vocabulário em inglês.
Estas estruturas não apenas ajudam na construção de frases, mas também são essenciais para desenvolver um estilo mais natural ao falar inglês.
Armadilhas Comuns de Pronúncia
Quando você começa a praticar shadow speak, é vital estar ciente das armadilhas de pronúncia. No vídeo, alguns termos que podem causar confusão incluem:
- “Fluent” – A pronúncia correta deste termo é fundamental, pois sua significância na descrição do seu nível de inglês é alta.
- “Expressions” – Atente para a entonação e a forma como as sílabas são acentuadas.
- “Memorizing” – Focar na pronúncia correta desse termo pode ajudar a transmitir suas ideias mais eficazmente em conversas.
A prática de ouvir e repetir essas palavras e frases, em contextos como os apresentados neste vídeo, é uma forma eficaz de superar dificuldades de pronúncia.
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.
