Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr.
2
English Channel, where learning English is easy and fun.
3
I'm Emily.
4
Hello Emily, and hello to all our listeners.
5
It is so good to be here again today.
6
It really is Paul.
7
How are you doing today?
8
I am okay.
9
A little bit hungry, actually.
10
I had a very early breakfast.
11
Oh, no.
12
What did you eat for breakfast?
13
Just some toast and a little bit of fruit.
14
It was not enough for a long morning of work.
15
How about you, Emily?
16
I am doing very well.
17
I had a big breakfast.
18
Eggs, bread, and a very large coffee.
19
So I have a lot of energy for our episode today.
20
That is good.
21
We need energy today because we have a very important topic.
22
We do.
23
Today we are talking about a question that everyone hears.
24
It is, tell me about yourself.
25
Oh, that is a big one.
26
I hear that question at parties, at work, and when I meet new neighbors.
27
Exactly.
28
It sounds simple, but sometimes it is hard to know what to say in English.
29
It is.
30
Sometimes my mind goes blank.
31
I just stand there and say, Uh, I am Paul.
32
Well, that is a good start.
33
But we can help everyone say a little bit more.
34
I hope so.
35
But wait, Emily.
36
Before we get into the details, we should ask our friends for a favor.
37
You are right.
38
If you are watching on YouTube, please take a second to like this video.
39
It really helps our channel.

41
English Channel.
42
We love seeing our community grow every week.
43
And if you have a friend who is learning English, share this episode with them.
44
Learning is better with friends.
45
Okay, now I'm ready.
46
Let's talk about introductions.
47
Where do we start?
48
We start with the basics.
49
Your name and where you live or where you are from.
50
That makes sense.
51
My name is Paul and I live in the city.
52
Simple and clear.
53
I had a funny situation yesterday, Paul.
54
I met a new woman at the park.
55
Oh, what happened?
56
Well, I saw her dog.
57
The dog was so cute.
58
It was a small, white dog with very long ears.
59
I started talking to the dog first.
60
You talked to the dog before the person?
61
Yes.
62
I said, hello, little friend.
63
You are so beautiful.
64
And the owner looked at me and smiled.
65
Then I realized I didn't say hello to her.
66
That is funny.
67
So what did you do?
68
I felt a little bit silly.
69
I stood up and said, oh, I am so sorry.
70
My name is Emily.
71
I live just around the corner.
72
That is a perfect way to fix it.
73
Did she tell you about herself?
74
She did.
75
She said, Nice to meet you, Emily.
76
My name is Susan.
77
I am from Chicago, but I moved here last month.
78
See?
79
Name and where you're from.
80
It is the best way to open the door to a conversation.
81
It really is.
82
And it is realistic.
83
You don't need to say your whole life story in one minute.
84
That is true.
85
Sometimes I want to say too much.
86
I want to talk about my cat, my car, my favorite food.
87
But maybe that is too much for the first minute.
88
Maybe save the cat stories for the second minute.
89
Good idea.
90
So after the name and the place, what's next?
91
Usually, people talk about what they do, their job or their studies.
92
Right.
93
Like, I'm a teacher or I work in an office.
94
Yes.
95
or if you are a student, I study engineering or I'm a high school student.
96
I remember my first job interview, Emily.
97
It was many years ago.
98
I was so nervous.
99
Oh, I hate interviews.
100
They make me sweat.
101
Me too.
102
The manager looked at me and said, So, Paul, tell me about yourself.
103
And what did you say?
104
Well, I wanted to sound very professional.
105
I said, I am Paul.
106
I am very hardworking.
107
I like to arrive on time, I am a fast learner.
108
That sounds very good.
109
Did you get the job?
110
I did.
111
But the funny part was that I was so nervous, I forgot to tell him that I actually had experience in that work.
112
I just talked about being hardworking.
113
At least you were honest.
114
But it shows that even in serious situations, you can keep it simple.
115
Exactly.
116
You don't need big, difficult words.
117
I work in a bank is better than a long, confusing sentence about financial systems.
118
I agree.
119
Simple English is the best English for beginners.
120
You know, Emily, I sometimes meet people at my guitar class.
121
Oh, I forgot you take guitar lessons.
122
How is that going?
123
It is going well, but I am still a beginner.
124
Last week, a new student joined the class.
125
His name is Marco.
126
And did he introduce himself?
127
He did.
128
He said, Hi, everyone.
129
I am Marco.
130
I work as a chef in a restaurant downtown.
131
In my free time, I want to learn music because it makes me relax.
132
That is a great introduction.
133
He said his name, his job, and a little bit about why he was there.
134
Yes, it felt very natural.
135
I liked that he mentioned his free time.
136
That is a great point, Paul.
137
Talking about your hobbies is a very friendly way to tell people about yourself.
138
I agree.
139
It makes people want to ask more questions, like, Oh, you are a chef?
140
What do you like to cook?
141
Exactly.
142
It creates a real conversation.
143
For example, if I say, I'm Emily, and I love hiking in the mountains, you might ask me where I go.
144
Right.
145
Or I might say, I love hiking too, but I'm very slow.
146
Being slow is okay.
147
The mountains don't run away.
148
That is true.
149
Hey, Emily, I have a quick idea for our listeners.
150
What is it?
151
If you're still listening right now, we want to hear from you.
152
Comment the word hello in the comments below.
153
Oh, I love that.
154
It's a simple way to say you are here with us.
155
Yes, just type hello and maybe tell us your name.
156
We love reading your names.
157
We really do.
158
It makes this feel like a big family.
159
It does.
160
Okay, so we talked about name, place, work, and hobbies.
161
What if someone asks about your family?
162
That is common too, especially in a relaxed setting.
163
Like at a dinner party?
164
Yes.
165
You can say, I have a small family or I come from a big family.
166
I usually say, I have one brother and one sister.
167
My brother lives in Canada.
168
That is perfect.
169
It gives just enough information.
170
You don't need to give their names or their ages if you don't want to.
171
Right.
172
It's just a way to show who you are.
173
I think people like to know if you have siblings or if you have a dog.
174
Oh, definitely.
175
People love talking about pets.
176
If I say, I have a very naughty cat, people always laugh.
177
Why is your cat naughty?
178
She likes to jump on the table when I'm eating.
179
She thinks my dinner is her dinner.
180
That is a very cat thing to do.
181
See?
182
Now I know something more about you.
183
You are a cat person.
184
Exactly.
185
These small details are what make an introduction feel real.
186
You know, Emily, I think some people are afraid of making a mistake when they talk about themselves.
187
I understand that fear.
188
fear.
189
But honestly, most people are just happy to meet you.
190
They are not checking your grammar.
191
That is so true.
192
I met a man at a cafe last week.
193
He was from France.
194
His English was not perfect, but he was so friendly.
195
What did he say?
196
He said, Hello, I am Pierre.
197
I am here for holiday.
198
I love this city.
199
That is beautiful.
200
It is simple, but I understand everything.
201
exactly he didn't say i am currently spending my vacation here he just said i am here for holiday it worked perfectly i love that it proves that you don't need to be an expert to have a conversation i agree but i did have one oops moment a few months ago oh tell me i love your oops moments Well, I was at a wedding.
202
I met a woman and she asked, So, Paul, tell me about yourself.
203
Okay.
204
I was eating a very large piece of cake at that moment.
205
Oh, no.
206
Yes.
207
My mouth was full of chocolate cake.
208
I tried to speak and I said, I am Paul.
209
I work.
210
Oh, Paul, that is terrible.
211
It was.
212
had chocolate on my teeth, too.
213
She just laughed and said, maybe you can tell me after you finish your cake.
214
That is a very good lesson.
215
Don't introduce yourself with a mouth full of cake.
216
Yes, that is a very realistic tip for our listeners.
217
Definitely.
218
Wait for a second, swallow your food, and then smile.
219
A smile is the most important part of an introduction.
220
It tells the other person, I am happy to talk to you.
221
It really does.
222
Even if your English is very basic, a smile makes it go well.
223
I also think it's good to have a routine.
224
You know, a few sentences you always use.
225
Like a script?
226
Not a script you read, but just a few things you are comfortable saying.
227
For me, it is, I'm Paul, I'm from this city, I love music, and I work in media.
228
I can say that in my sleep.
229
That is a great idea.
230
If you practice those three or four sentences, you won't feel so nervous when someone asks the question.
231
Right.
232
You can even practice in front of a mirror.
233
It sounds silly, but it works.
234
It does.
235
I used to do that before I started this podcast.
236
I would stand in the bathroom and say, hello, I'm Emily.
237
Welcome to our show.
238
Did anyone hear you?
239
My cat looked at me like I was crazy, but it helped me feel confident.
240
Cats are very good at making us feel crazy.
241
They are.
242
But seriously, practice makes it feel natural.
243
What about talking about your dreams or your future?
244
Is that part of telling about yourself?
245
Sometimes, especially if you are talking to a new friend.
246
Like, I want to travel to Japan next year.
247
Yes, or I am learning English because I want to get a better job.
248
Oh, that is a very common one for our listeners.
249
It is, and it's a great thing to share.
250
It shows you are a person who likes to grow and learn.
251
I agree.
252
It makes you interesting.
253
People like people who have goals.
254
I remember when I first met you, Paul.
255
Do you remember?
256
Hmm.
257
Was it at the studio?
258
Yes.
259
You were wearing a very bright yellow t-shirt.
260
Oh, I remember that shirt.
261
I loved that shirt.
262
It was very yellow.
263
You walked up to me and said, Hi, I'm Paul.
264
I'm going to be your partner on the podcast.
265
I'm a bit nervous, but I'm ready to work.
266
Wow, I said that?
267
I don't remember being that brave.
268
You were, and I liked it because you were honest.
269
You said you were nervous, but you also said you were ready.
270
That is a good tip, too.
271
Being honest is okay.
272
You can say, I am a bit shy, but nice to meet you.
273
Exactly.
274
It makes the other person feel relaxed, too.
275
Maybe they are shy.
276
Most people are a little bit shy when they meet someone new.
277
It's normal.
278
It's very normal.
279
So, Paul, we have covered a lot of ground today.
280
We have.
281
I feel like I know how to introduce myself better now, even after all these years.
282
Good.
283
I'm glad.
284
Should we do a quick recap for everyone?
285
That's a great idea.
286
Let's see what we talked about.
287
Okay.
288
First, we said start with the basics, your name and where you are from.
289
Right.
290
I am Paul, and I live in the city.
291
Simple.
292
Then, talk about your job or your studies.
293
I work as a teacher or I am a student.
294
No need for big words.
295
Third, mention a hobby or something you like to do in your free time.
296
Like my guitar lessons or your hiking in the mountains.
297
It makes the conversation fun.
298
And finally, don't forget the small things, like your family or your pets.
299
And the most important rule, no cake in the mouth when you are talking.
300
Yes.
301
Smile, be honest, and if you're nervous, it's okay to say so.
302
That is a perfect summary, Emily.
303
I think our listeners can really use these tips.
304
I hope so.
305
Telling people about yourself is the first step to making new friends.
306
It really is.
307
And English is just a tool to help you do that.
308
Well said, Paul.
309
I think that is all the time we have for today.
310
Oh, the time went so fast I didn't even notice.
311
That's because we were having fun.
312
True.
313
