Hello and welcome back to my Slow English Podcast.
2
This is a place where you can listen to slow, clear English.
3
English you can feel, not just memorize.
4
Remember, speed this video up to 1.5 if you want a challenge.
5
Today, we are learning how to introduce ourselves.
6
Now, not in a basic way.
7
Not just your name or your job.
8
Today, we will learn how to introduce the deeper parts of ourselves.
9
If you are intermediate or advanced, then this episode is for you.
10
Follow along with me, speak out loud, pause when you need to, and comment your answers.
11
I'll read them all.
12
And shout out to my top commenters on my last video from Uzbekistan, Brazil, and Bangladesh.
13
Thank you as always for being here.
14
Thank you for your support.
15
So, who am I?
16
Today I want to introduce myself to you.
17
Not just my name, but my story.
18
My name is Tiana Ortiz.
19
That is the name I was given.
20
But it's not the whole story.
21
I am someone who has lived between cultures, between places that both feel like home.
22
I don't just want to introduce myself, I want to tell you what shaped me.
23
First things first.
24
My name, Tiana, means the most beautiful flower, according to my parents.
25
I'm not so sure about it, but I know it is of Aztec origin.
26
I was born in the United States, Nebraska, and that is where my life started.
27
But of course, a home is not always permanent.
28
When I was eight years old, my dad was deported back to Mexico.
29
So everything changed.
30
My life turned upside down.
31
And I think that moment taught me a lot about loss, adaptation, and resilience.
32
It taught me how fast life can change.
33
how strong we are deep down and how capable we are of adapting to change.
34
Now, when you introduce yourself, you can ask, where am I from and what formed me?
35
What experience changed you?
36
What moment made you grow up faster?
37
What place in the world taught you who you are?
38
Tell me about it.
39
Write it down in the comments.
40
I attended a bilingual school.
41
They taught English and Spanish.
42
Not very good Spanish, but nevertheless, they taught me something.
43
All the basics that I would need to survive, basically.
44
My sister wasn't so lucky.
45
She didn't know any Spanish when we arrived, and my sister entered into middle school.
46
And that's a rough year to enter a new school.
47
Now add on the pressure of not knowing your classmates' language.
48
It was difficult for her.
49
But I feel especially sympathetic for my sister.
50
I was able to pick up the language pretty quick.
51
Since I was eight years old, it came naturally.
52
But at the beginning, it was difficult.
53
Don't get me wrong.
54
I definitely struggled making friends and relating to people at first.
55
I went through all of elementary school, middle school, and high school in Mexico.
56
But I did not go to university.
57
I learned through experiences, through making mistakes, through work, and through lots of curiosity.
58
Curiosity for the world in general.
59
I traveled a lot and I learned that education does not only live in a classroom,
60
but it lives in conversations, in travel, in culture, in failing but trying again, in stepping out of your comfort zone.
61
Something I learned to do was to be inspired instead of envious.
62
So now, when I feel I'm judging someone and I know I'm envious of them, I decide to feel inspired.
63
I take action on what I need in my life.
64
on what my body is telling me I need because I'm judging that
65
other person now it's your turn what's something that you've
66
learned about yourself outside of the classroom how do you learn best through structure or freedom,
67
through books or life.
68
If you did study something in school, what's something it taught you about yourself?
69
Not just about the subject.
70
What's something you learned about yourself in the classroom?
71
Let me know in the comments.
72
I'm really curious to hear your stories.
73
I work as an English teacher.
74
But that's not the full truth.
75
What I really do is make people feel safe.
76
Safe using their voice.
77
I help people feel less afraid.
78
afraid of being misunderstood.
79
I hate it when someone is learning a language and you can
80
see they're learning a language and there's always that one person who acts like they can't understand
81
what you're saying or they don't make the effort to try to understand
82
what you're saying they'll say huh what I can't understand your accent and
83
that's what I'm here to destroy that belief that maybe someone else made you think
84
being soft being patient being kind as we should
85
what you're doing is a very courageous thing to even attempt and you need to feel proud of yourself I'm here
86
to help you tune out all the people who want to discourage you.
87
Teaching is not just my job.
88
It's how I connect, how I listen, and how I have learned so many things.
89
So many.
90
Just from teaching online.
91
now ask yourself what do you really do
92
beyond your title what problem do you solve what
93
do others come to you for what kind of energy do you bring to the room.
94
Don't let those discouragers get the best of you.
95
Listen to me instead.
96
I speak English and Spanish, and I'm learning Chinese.
97
You guys know this.
98
Language changed my life.
99
It changed how I think, how I express emotion, how I connect with people.
100
Every language I learn teaches me a new version of myself.
101
Does this happen to you yet?
102
Maybe with another language or maybe with English.
103
Maybe the more you learn, the more you'll discover your new personality.
104
Because I feel like I have two personalities, one in English and one in Spanish, for sure.
105
Your turn.
106
How has language shaped you?
107
Which language feels like home and which language feels like growth?
108
What do I love?
109
I love walking through cities, biking through cities,
110
when there's no traffic, with my headphones on, listening to my favorite songs,
111
stopping by small shops or markets and having quiet moments.
112
I need to slow down.
113
We all need to slow down sometimes.
114
It reminds me that my life doesn't need to be super productive, to be meaningful.
115
I love traveling and learning new things, not to escape, but to understand more and more about myself.
116
It's so important to get to know yourself.
117
Now your turn.
118
What do you love?
119
What activity makes time disappear?
120
What brings you back to yourself when life feels heavy?
121
Now, take your time.
122
Reflect on each question You don't need to be perfect to start You just need to start And try
123
And make mistakes You know this Repeat Pause Think And if you want, ask me questions in the comments
124
But mostly, tell me about yourself Let me get to know you better.
125
And remember, guys, never stop learning.
126
Bye.
127
you

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
