กำลังสร้างบทเรียน...

Hi friends!
2
Welcome back to Daily English Talk, the place where we make English fun, easy, and part of your daily life.
3
I'm Lily.
4
And I'm Tom.
5
And if this is your first time here...
6
Welcome to the family.
7
If you haven't subscribed yet, go ahead and hit that button right now.
8
Don't be shy.
9
Don't be shy.
10
And today's episode is so good.
11
We're talking about how to introduce yourself in English.
12
Which sounds simple, right?
13
But trust me, most people are doing it in the way that sounds a little robotic.
14
Tom, be nice.
15
I'm not being mean, I'm just saying there's a much better way, and we're going to teach you exactly how today.
16
At the B1 to B2 level.
17
So intermediate and upper intermediate learners, this one is for you.
18
But before we get into the lesson, I have a question for you.
19
Ooh, I love this part.
20
Okay.
21
So, Tom recently had to introduce himself to a group of total strangers.
22
And one thing he said made the whole room go completely silent.
23
Yeah, let's not relive that just yet.
24
So here's our question for you today.
25
What do you think Tom said that made everyone go quiet?
26
It wasn't that bad.
27
It kind of was, but you'll have to watch until the end to find out.
28
We'll reveal the full story at the very end of the episode.
29
Okay, Tom, so let's set the scene.
30
Tell us what happened.
31
Oh, so a few weeks ago, I went to this professional networking event.
32
You know, one of those events where everyone is in a nice blazer and they're handing out business cards.
33
I walk in and immediately this woman comes up to me and says, hi, I don't think we've met.
34
Tell me about yourself.
35
Okay, classic networking moment.
36
What did you say?
37
I panicked.
38
I just, I completely froze.
39
And then I said, and I quote, hello, my name is Tom.
40
I am 31 years old.
41
I am from England.
42
Tom, that sounds like a language textbook from 1987.
43
I know.
44
And she just stared at me.
45
And I kept going.
46
I said, I work in media.
47
I like football and cooking.
48
You listed your hobbies like a dating profile.
49
The woman literally said, "Oh, how...
50
thorough." And then she walked away to get a drink.
51
I'm so sorry, but also, this is exactly why we're doing today's lesson.
52
If I had known what we're teaching today, that conversation would have gone so differently.
53
very stiff way of introducing ourselves.
54
But real English, real conversation, it sounds completely different.
55
So today, we are going to fix that for everyone.
56
Including you, Tom.
57
Including me.
58
Okay, so before the main vocabulary section, let's talk about the grammar behind a great self -introduction.
59
Because the grammar actually matters a lot here.
60
The tenses you use, the sentence structures, they change how confident and natural you sound.
61
First, let's talk about the present simple versus the present continuous.
62
These two tenses are really common in introductions, but people mix them up.
63
Can you give us an example? Of course.
64
So, present simple is for permanent facts or routines.
65
For example, "I work in marketing.
66
That's my job.
67
That's always true." And present continuous is for things happening right now or temporarily.
68
So you might say, now, but maybe not forever.
69
In a self -introduction, you use both.
70
You mix them together.
71
I work in education, and right now I'm developing a new online course.
72
That sounds so much more interesting than just "I am a teacher." Exactly.
73
And here's another grammar point.
74
We use "I've been" or the present perfect to talk about experience.
75
So instead of saying, "I lived in three countries," you'd say,
76
"I've lived in three countries." The present perfect connects your past to your present.
77
It feels more natural in conversation.
78
And one more thing: the embedded question.
79
This is a B2 level grammar point.
80
Tell them about this one.
81
So instead of asking a direct question like "Where are you from?" a more natural, polite way is to say,
82
"I'd love to know where you're from," or "I was wondering what you do." and thoughtful.
83
And when you introduce yourself, ending with something like, "I'd love to hear about you," is gold.
84
It keeps the conversation going.
85
Okay, now let's get into the vocabulary.
86
All right, everyone, let's go through some key phrases and vocabulary for introducing yourself at the B1, B2 level.
87
Repeat after us when we ask you to.
88
OK, let's go.
89
Background.
90
Background.
91
Background means your history, where you come from, what you've studied, what you've done in your life.
92
So instead of saying "I am from Spain
93
and I studied business," a more natural way is "My background is in business
94
and I grew up in Spain." It sounds more sophisticated, more like a confident adult and less like a school exercise.
95
Your turn, repeat after me.
96
My background is in… Great!
97
Use that phrase next time someone asks about you.
98
Specialize in.
99
Specialize in.
100
Specialize in means you focus on one particular area.
101
It's a powerful phrase because it tells people what you're really good at.
102
So at that networking event, instead of saying, "I work in media," I should have said,
103
"I specialize in digital content and video production." That sounds so much better!
104
I know!
105
I specialize in digital content versus I work in media.
106
Same information, completely different impression.
107
Repeat after me.
108
I specialize in...
109
Perfect.
110
Fill in that blank with your area.
111
passionate about, passionate about.
112
So this is an emotion word.
113
Passionate means you really care about something deeply.
114
When I first moved to a new city for work, I had to introduce myself at a team meeting.
115
And I said, I'm really passionate about language learning and helping people communicate.
116
And my manager later told me that phrase is what made her remember me.
117
That's so sweet.
118
It works because it gives people a window into who you are, not just what you do.
119
You can say, "I'm passionate about with anything: music, teaching, technology, cooking." Okay, repeat.
120
I'm passionate about.
121
Yes, say it like you mean it, with feeling.
122
Currently.
123
Currently.
124
Currently means at this moment in time, right now.
125
It's a really useful word in introductions because it gives people up -to -date information.
126
So I could say, "I currently work as a video producer and I'm currently learning Spanish." Are you actually learning Spanish?
127
I downloaded an app. That counts.
128
It does not count.
129
But the grammar is perfect.
130
"Currently" signals that things are active and happening.
131
It makes you sound dynamic.
132
Repeat after me.
133
I'm currently Originally from… originally from… Originally from is better than just saying "I'm from." It implies you've moved or traveled,
134
which is interesting and opens up more conversation.
135
Tom, where are you originally from?
136
So I'm originally from a small town in the north of England called York.
137
But I've lived in New York and now I'm here with you all on Daily English Talk.
138
That's your origin story!
139
Exactly!
140
Everyone has an origin story.
141
Originally from helps you tell yours.
142
Repeat.
143
I'm originally from… work my way up.
144
Work my way up.
145
This phrase means you started at a lower level and gradually reached a higher level through hard work.
146
It shows ambition and progress.
147
So, you could say, "I started as an intern at a small company
148
and I worked my way up to become a team manager." It tells a story in just a few words.
149
People love a growth story.
150
And it sounds so much better than just saying, "Now I'm a manager." Repeat,
151
"I worked my way up to…" "Based in…" "Based in…" "Based in" means where you currently live or work.
152
It's more professional than saying "I live in." So in a professional setting, you'd say, "I'm originally from Japan,
153
but I'm currently based in California." It sounds polished, clean, confident.
154
Try it.
155
I'm based in...
156
"In my spare time." "In my spare time." Spare time means free time, time when you're not working.
157
This phrase is perfect for talking about hobbies without sounding like you're reading a list.
158
So, instead of what I did at that networking event listing my hobbies like a robot, I should have said, "In my spare time,
159
I love experimenting with new recipes and watching football with friends." Aww, see?
160
That's actually charming!
161
Why didn't I know this two weeks ago?
162
That's why we're here!
163
Repeat, in my spare time I enjoy Okay, let's put it all together now.
164
We're going to do a full sample introduction at B1, B2 level.
165
Listen first, then we'll do it slowly for you to repeat.
166
Here we go!
167
Hi, I'm Lily.
168
I'm originally from the South of South Korea, but I'm currently based in Los Angeles.
169
My background is in communications and I specialize in content creation and storytelling.
170
I'm really passionate about language and helping people express themselves.
171
I've been working in this field for about five years now, and I've recently started teaching online.
172
In my spare time, I love hiking and trying new restaurants.
173
I'd love to know what brings you here today.
174
smooth.
175
Thank you.
176
Okay, now let's go through it slowly.
177
Repeat each line after me.
178
Hi, I'm Lily.
179
I'm originally from the South of South Korea, but I'm currently based in Los Angeles.
180
My background is in communications and I specialize in content creation and storytelling.
181
I'm really passionate about language and helping people express themselves.
182
I've been working in this field for about five years now, and I've recently started teaching online.
183
In my spare time, I love hiking and trying new restaurants.
184
I'd love to know what brings you here today.
185
Yes!
186
That was amazing!
187
Did you feel that?
188
That's what a natural introduction sounds like.
189
Okay, let's quickly review what we learned today.
190
We learned eight powerful phrases for introducing yourself in English at the B1 -B2 level.
191
Background, as in, my background is in… Specialize in, I specialize in… Passionate about,
192
I'm passionate about… Currently, I'm currently working on… Originally from, I'm originally from… Work my way up,
193
I worked my way up to… Based in, I'm currently based in… spare time.
194
In my spare time, I love...
195
Use all of these phrases to build a self -introduction that sounds confident, natural, and memorable.
196
And don't forget the grammar tips.
197
Mix your present simple and present continuous.
198
Use the present perfect for experience, and end with an embedded question to keep the conversation going.
199
Now here's your challenge for today.
200
Write your own introduction in the comments below.
201
Use at least three of the phrases we taught today.
202
We read every single comment, and we would absolutely love to learn about you.
203
Even if it's just a few sentences, you can write, "Hi, I'm name, I'm originally from place, and I'm currently based in place,
204
I specialize in field, and I'm passionate about topic.
205
In my spare time, I love: hobby.
206
Go for it.
207
This is your moment to practice.
208
Okay, are you ready for the story?
209
I'm ready.
210
So remember at the beginning we asked you what Tom said that made the whole room go silent at the networking event?
211
So, I introduced myself poorly, as we discussed, and then I thought, "Okay, I need to recover.
212
I need to say something interesting." And?
213
And so I said, "I also want to mention that I make a really incredible chicken pie."
214
He told a room full of professionals at a networking event about his chicken pie.
215
In my defense, it is an incredible chicken pie.
216
The whole room went quiet, Tom.
217
One man did ask me for the recipe later, so I'd call that a partial success.
218
time, I love experimenting with new recipes, that would have been charming.
219
I know, I know.
220
Lesson learned.
221
Very publicly learned.

บริบทและพื้นฐาน
ในวิดีโอนี้ Lily และ Tom นำเสนอวิธีการแนะนำตัวเองในภาษาอังกฤษอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ โดยเน้นว่าการแนะนำตัวนั้นอาจดูเหมือนเรื่องง่าย แต่หลายคนมักจะแนะนำตัวในลักษณะที่ฟังดูเป็นทางการหรือหุ่นยนต์ ซึ่งทำให้การสื่อสารไม่ถูกใจผู้ฟัง ในเบื้องต้น Tom แบ่งปันประสบการณ์ของเขาในการแนะนำตัวที่งานเครือข่าย ซึ่งมีการพูดคุยกันในหมู่ผู้เชี่ยวชาญและต้องมีการแนะนำตัวต่อหน้าผู้คนที่ไม่รู้จัก
5 ประโยคหลักสำหรับการสื่อสารประจำวัน
- สวัสดีครับ/ค่ะ ชื่อของฉันคือ... - ตัวอย่างการแนะนำตัวที่เริ่มต้นด้วยชื่อ เพื่อสร้างความประทับใจแรก
- ฉันอายุ 31 ปี - แนะนำอายุ ซึ่งช่วยให้ผู้ฟังเข้าใจพื้นฐานเกี่ยวกับคุณ
- ฉันมาจากอังกฤษ - การแบ่งปันภูมิหลังจะช่วยเปิดการสนทนาเรื่องอื่นๆ
- ฉันทำงานในสื่อ - การพูดถึงอาชีพของคุณทำให้คนอื่นเข้าใจว่าคุณทำอะไร
- ฉันชอบฟุตบอลและการทำอาหาร - การพูดถึงงานอดิเรกสร้างความเชื่อมโยงในสนทนา
คู่มือการฝึกพูดแบบชาโดว์อิ้ง
การแนะนำตัวเองในภาษาอังกฤษอาจเป็นเรื่องที่ท้าทาย โดยเฉพาะเมื่อคุณอยู่ในสถานการณ์ที่กดดัน เช่น งานเครือข่าย ต่อไปนี้คือขั้นตอนในการฝึกพูดโดยใช้เทคนิค ชาโดว์อิ้งภาษาอังกฤษ หรือ shadow speech:
- ฟังอย่างตั้งใจ: เริ่มต้นด้วยการดูวิดีโอและฟังประโยคที่พูดโดย Lily และ Tom อย่างใกล้ชิด
- ทำความเข้าใจ: พยายามเข้าใจโครงสร้างและคำศัพท์ที่พวกเขาใช้ในการแนะนำตัว
- ฝึกพูดตาม: ใช้เทคนิค ชาโดว์อิ้ง โดยการทำตามเสียงของผู้พูดซ้ำๆ ช่วยให้คุณปรับปรุงการออกเสียงและจังหวะ
- บันทึกและฟัง: บันทึกเสียงของคุณขณะฝึกพูดและฟังกลับ เพื่อให้คุณสามารถปรับปรุงได้
- นำไปใช้ในการสนทนา: เมื่อลงมือทำจริงในสถานการณ์การแนะนำตัว พยายามใช้ประโยคที่คุณฝึกซ้อมมา
การใช้ shadowspeaks จะช่วยให้คุณสามารถนำวิธีการนี้ไปใช้ในการฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษในชีวิตประจำวันได้ดีขึ้น ลองใช้เทคนิคดังกล่าวเพื่อทำให้การแนะนำตัวของคุณดูเป็นธรรมชาติและน่าสนใจยิ่งขึ้น!
ไวยากรณ์ในวิดีโอนี้
โครงสร้างที่ผู้พูดใช้บ่อยที่สุด พร้อมคำพูดจริงจากวิดีโอ:
| โครงสร้าง | ในวิดีโอ |
|---|---|
| Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — การกระทำที่เริ่มก่อนหน้านี้และยังดำเนินอยู่ | I've been working · have been charming |
| Present perfect have/has + กริยาช่อง 3 — เหตุการณ์ในอดีตที่ยังเกี่ยวข้องกับปัจจุบัน | haven't subscribed · we've met · I've been |
เทคนิค Shadowing คืออะไร?
Shadowing เป็นเทคนิคการเรียนรู้ภาษาที่ได้รับการรับรองทางวิทยาศาสตร์ พัฒนาขึ้นสำหรับการฝึกนักแปลมืออาชีพ วิธีการนี้เรียบง่ายแต่ทรงพลัง: คุณฟังเสียงภาษาอังกฤษจากเจ้าของภาษาและพูดตามทันที — เหมือนเงาที่ตามผู้พูดด้วยช่วงเวลาห่าง 1-2 วินาที การวิจัยแสดงว่าเทคนิคนี้ปรับปรุงความแม่นยำในการออกเสียง ทำนองเสียง จังหวะ การเชื่อมเสียง การฟังเข้าใจ และความคล่องแคล่วในการพูดได้อย่างมีนัยสำคัญ
