Shadowing Practice: If I Was a Student Again, I'd Do This - Learn English Speaking with Video
Ders oluşturuluyor...
1
When I was a first year medical student, I was an absolute mess.
2
The workload was way more than I'd ever thought possible.
3
I kept on falling behind my lectures, and I was getting terrible grades in all my assignments.
4
I'd be hanging out with friends until 4 in the morning, get basically zero sleep, stumble into lectures, fall asleep in the lecture hall, and generally things were not going well.
5
But then I decided that I was actually going to start doing this university thing properly, because they say that university is supposed to be the best time of your life.
6
And so I started applying a handful of strategies that completely transformed my student experience.
7
And because of these strategies, I managed to get through all six years of medical school while getting pretty good grades, while building a business on the side, and starting this YouTube channel, and making friends for life.
8
And so, in this video, we're going to go over those eight strategies, eight things that I really wish I'd been doing from day one, that if I were a student again, I would do to completely transform my student experience.
9
Alright, so let's start with strategy number one.
10
When I was in my first year, I realised that managing my time was a thing that I wasn't very good at.
11
And I knew that there was just such a huge amount of stuff that I wanted to do, in terms of studies, and extracurriculars, and joining clubs and societies, and hanging out with friends,
12
and actually finding the time and making the space in my life to juggle all those things just wasn't happening.
13
And there was one simple change that I made to my life
14
that I've done ever since then for the last like 10 years, which has been completely transformational, and that was essentially running my life entirely through my calendar.
15
So before I started doing this, this is what my calendar looked like.
16
It was basically blank, except I would have my like two lectures a day scheduled in, and the rest would be white space.
17
And I just sort of assumed that this is how you're supposed to use a calendar.
18
You schedule the things that are scheduled and then you do what you want with the rest of the time.
19
But then after reading a bunch of blogs and books about productivity and lifehacker.com and these other things, I realized that the most productive people in the world, almost all of them live their life based on their calendar.
20
And so then I started doing that.
21
I started scheduling what time I intended to wake up, what time I intended to do my homework assignments or my essays, what time I was going to go to these lectures, what clubs I was going to, which evenings I'd be hanging out with friends on.
22
And my calendar turned from a blank slate into like a rainbow looking calendar.
23
And that was completely game changing.
24
It's up to us how we want to want to allocate those 24 hours.
25
Let's say you're sleeping for eight hours a day.
26
You've got 16 hours.
27
Let's say you're studying or working or whatever for eight hours a day.
28
And then you have another eight hours that you need to figure out what to do with.
29
Now, if you're not intentional about how you're using that time, you're going to end up defaulting to the random shit that we default to when we're students, i.e. totally wasting time.
30
But at least if you're intentional about it, you can nudge yourself towards acting in a way that you actually want to act.
31
And then of course, I'm not saying that it has to be productive all the time, but at least try and be more intentional with your time.
32
And ever since I started doing that, people have started asking me questions how you so good at managing your time.
33
It's literally because I just 100% run my life based on my calendar.
34
All right, strategy number two was a thing that I discovered in my second year of medical school.
35
And again, I wish I'd discovered this way sooner, even when I was in high school.
36
And unsurprisingly, it's about learning how to study efficiently.
37
This is something that no one teaches us.
38
You don't get taught in school or at university how to learn.
39
It's just something you're meant to pick up
40
and you watch other people do it and you start highlighting
41
and taking notes and like watching videos or doing whatever the hell you think
42
because you think that like this is how you learn.
43
No one taught me how to learn.
44
But what I discovered in my second year of medical school is
45
that there is a vast swath of research out there where
46
people have literally done studies showing what are the absolute bang for your buck methods for effective study.
47
Like imagine you had two students and both of them have that same two hour block to study in, except one student has actually taken some time to learn how to learn and knows what the effective studying techniques are.
48
And the other student is just making it up as they go along.
49
Obviously the first student is gonna be way more efficient.
50
They're gonna get way more stuff into stuff into their brain.
51
They're going to have a better time.
52
It's going to be more fun because they're making more progress.
53
They're going to do way better in their exams.
54
And so I've actually been making videos on this stuff on YouTube for the last like five years now.
55
And so I'll put a little playlist up there and down below.
56
If you've not yet come across the strategies around efficient studying, then you should definitely check them out.
57
And I guarantee they will completely transform your life.
58
Continuing on the main theme of studying, strategy number three is to study with friends.
59
And this is another one of those things that makes those blocks of time in which you're studying way more efficient, way more effective, and way more enjoyable as well,
60
which is what makes it sustainable and fun and creates all the memories and all that fun stuff.
61
In my first year, I realized
62
that I was spending all my time on my own in my room or in the library and trying to study myself, and it was just kind of draining.
63
It wasn't that fun.
64
The subjects weren't that interesting.
65
I was like, I'm studying to be a doctor, not studying to learn some random biochemistry pathways that are going to be completely meaningless.
66
But then in my second year, I decided, you know what?
67
I want to try and get a really high mark in my exams.
68
I want to do this properly, but I also want the journey to be enjoyable.
69
And I realized I could just study with my friends.
70
And so during exam term, we got a group of friends together.
71
We're still friends to this day, and we'd all go to different libraries, and we'd all study.
72
We were all doing different subjects, but we would all do the Pomodoro technique together, 25 minutes of work, five minutes of rest.
73
But the fact
74
that there were eight of us around a single table in
75
a library made the entire process of studying way more effective because it was fundamentally more enjoyable.
76
And like with anything you do, doing it with friends just makes it more fun.
77
Now, if you're interested in learning how to study more effectively, then I've literally got a four-hour-long masterclass on this that will teach you everything you need to know, what all of the evidence says around how to study effectively,
78
and it's available completely for free on Skillshare, who are very kindly sponsoring this video.
79
You've probably heard of Skillshare by now.
80
They're a fantastic platform.
81
I've been a teacher on Skillshare since 2019, and it's a great platform for online courses and almost anything imaginable, from productivity and studying to cooking and video editing, graphic design, interior design.
82
They've got classes on everything.
83
But did you know that Skillshare also has classes on all sorts of career-related topics, like how to break into different creative industries and how to be a freelancer, and how to launch merchandise on platforms like Etsy and Shopify, things like that.
84
And actually very excitingly, I also have a productivity learning path that is on Skillshare.
85
So you can literally check out the page and check out my four classes on productivity in a sensible order.
86
And that's like a really cool way to experience my productivity classes if you're interested in becoming more productive with your time.
87
And so if you're a student and you want to study more effectively for your exams, absolutely check out my classes on there about studying or about productivity.
88
Or if you want to explore different possibilities in your career, you can check out the other classes on the platform.
89
And the best bit is you can access all of these classes completely for free during the one month free trial.
90
So if you're one of the first 1,000 people to hit the link in the video description.
91
That will let you sign up for a completely free one-month trial of Skillshare.
92
And during that time, you can watch my four-hour-long studying masterclass, which is all the evidence-based tips on how to study.
93
And you can check out the other classes on the platform.
94
And if you like it, then you can continue with the premium subscription of Skillshare.
95
I've been a paying member of Skillshare since like 2018.
96
Would fully recommend it.
97
So whether you're interested in time management or studying or productivity or marketing or sales, then Skillshare is a great place to check out if you want to learn those skills while you're at university.
98
So check out the link down in the video description.
99
And thank you so much, Skillshare, for sponsoring this video.
100
All right, so zooming out and thinking about the calendar, let's say that one of the points of university is to get good grades slash to learn stuff.
101
And let's say, for the sake of argument, you're doing that for around eight hours a day.
102
That gives you another eight hours every day
103
and 32 hours on the weekend to be able to do other more interesting things than studying.
104
And so these next five strategies that I would do
105
if I were a student again are around what I would do with the rest of that time, the time I wasn't spent directly trying to study for exams.
106
And the first one is that I would join way more clubs and societies.
107
I would think of them as sampling different types of experiences.
108
Now there's a bunch of evidence
109
that a chap called David Epstein cites where he kind of looks at what makes the most successful athletes.
110
Are they the people that took one skill and just focused on that one skill, like Tiger Woods, who was playing golf from the age of three,
111
or are they people that sampled loads of different sports and then kind of decided what they went for?
112
Apparently Roger Federer was like this.
113
He tried loads and loads of sports and and then around like age 16, decided to double down on tennis, which is very different to the kind of Tiger Woods model.
114
And then when Epstein parsed all the data on this, apparently it turns out that like way more successful athletes are the ones
115
that sampled loads of different sports rather than just like laser focusing on one specific thing.
116
And so if you're spending all your time at university just laser focusing on this one subject that you care about, you're missing out on a lot of other potential life experiences
117
and also career experiences that could potentially get you ahead in life.
118
That's what you care about but that could also add colour
119
and vibes and like a magic sparkle of enjoyment to your life as well.
120
La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
121
I really wish that back when I was in Cambridge, I tried more dancing or kickboxing or rowing or windsurfing or abseiling or climbing.
122
There were so many clubs and societies that I wanted to join.
123
But in the given moment, I would think, I'm just gonna do the easy thing.
124
Instead of trying to go to this club and trying to meet new people and trying to try new experience, I'm just gonna hang out with my friends that I already know.
125
There's a balance, you know, it's obviously fun hanging out with friends but like it's one of those things that I really wish I'd done more of.
126
And so if I had my time again, I'd be sampling more of those experiences.
127
All right.
128
So the next strategy is something that I advise all students to do when they're at university, and that is learn skills in the universal toolbox.
129
So the universal toolbox is a toolbox of skills and techniques that if you learn how to do them, even to a basic level,
130
they will help you out in life in ways that you can't even imagine.
131
So something like that would be public speaking.
132
Whatever career you happen to be in, being confident at public speaking is just ridiculously helpful for doing better in your career, but also for having a more interesting life.
133
Being good at negotiation is another one of those things.
134
And kind of hard to learn at university because they probably don't have a negotiation club, but like everything in life is a negotiation.
135
If you're better at negotiating, you're better at negotiating raises.
136
Yes, of course, but you're also better at selling things, whatever you're doing in your career.
137
You're better at putting yourself forward for new things.
138
You're even better at negotiating with your friends, family, friends, relationships, all of this kind of stuff.
139
Another thing I would add to the universal toolbox is something like video editing.
140
It sounds weird, but like increasingly the world is moving multimedia.
141
YouTube is a thing.
142
Social media is a thing.
143
If you know the basics of how to edit videos, then even if you're a, for example, physics professor later in life, the fact that you know how videos work means
144
that you'll be able to communicate information way more effectively than someone who does not know how to basically make a video.
145
Something like coding or design or how to write a good presentation.
146
And so I'd be spending some of my non-studying time working on these different skills, which are basically guaranteed to synergize with whatever career I do in the future.
147
By the way, if you're enjoying this video so far, I'd love it if you could hit the thumbs up button and it really helps support the channel.
148
All right, strategy number six is that I would try and experiment more with side hustles when I am a student.
149
Again, the reason for this is because when you're a student, you have loads of time on your hands.
150
It might seem, oh, like, oh my God, my life is so busy, I'm so stressed, but wait until you get a real job.
151
And, you know, I've heard, wait until you get kids.
152
Then you'll be like, oh shit, I had so much time when I was a student.
153
Then when you're a student is the perfect time to experiment with different side hustles where the stakes are pretty low.
154
And I put a lot of my kind of, I guess, financial success later in life to the fact that I experimented with side hustles when I was a student.
155
Initially when I was in high school, I was doing private tutoring, I was helping people with maths and English and science, and that was a thing that was making me a few pounds every hour.
156
Then when I got to university, I started running courses, helping kids get into medical school.
157
And then later on, I started doing user interface design and web design for medical technology companies.
158
And all of those things fundamentally led to this YouTube channel starting, which has completely, completely transformed my life.
159
Now at this point, some people are like very anti-anti-side hustle.
160
Be like, oh, university is meant to be for enjoying yourself, not for trying to make money in the capitalist machine ecosystem kind of thing.
161
To which I'd say, yes, fine.
162
But also, like, would you say no to having an extra few hundred dollars a month
163
or a few thousand dollars a month when you're working a job?
164
Most people end up in jobs that they don't actually enjoy, that don't provide meaning and fulfillment.
165
If you have the skills of making money on the side, then you're not tethered necessarily or shackled to a job that you might not enjoy.
166
Which to me was always something I really wanted to avoid.
167
I never wanted to be in a situation where I'm doing a job, because I have to pay the bills, and I'm not looking forward to work on a Monday, and I'm hating my life.
168
And I think like experimenting with side hustles
169
and learning how to build a business
170
and learning the skills involved in making money means that at least in that part of your life, you have more autonomy, you have more control, you have more choice.
171
All right, the final two strategies relate to relationships because yes, part of university is about studying, and part of university is about learning skills, but a big part of university is about making friends and having fun and making memories.
172
And so strategy number seven that I would definitely do if I was a student again is to take way more photos.
173
Now, it's been about five years since I've graduated university, I started university in 2012 and graduated in 2018.
174
And so it's actually been 10 years since my first year of uni.
175
But every year I took lots and lots of photos.
176
I had a little camera, I would take it around with me.
177
I would take photos on my phone.
178
And now all of those photos are in my Apple Photos.
179
And it means that now 10 years on, I see those like on this day, like on this day six years ago, on this day seven years ago.
180
And it's so nice to look back at those memories of seeing me and my friends hanging out or studying, whatever that might be.
181
And these days, for example, I haven't seen my friend Paul in many months because he lives in Singapore now.
182
But the other day I saw a photo of Paul
183
and me on my little Apple Photos widget from like six years ago.
184
And I just sent him that on WhatsApp.
185
They're like, oh, this was cute.
186
This was 2017.
187
And there's something so nice about being able to relive those memories of student life by virtue of having taken photos.
188
And then the final strategy that I would do if I was doing university again, if I was a student again, is to really try and surround myself with energizers.
189
So you know that feeling where some of the friends you hang out with, they really lift up your energy levels, but you might have some friends in your life, some people in your life, where you hang out with them and it dampens your energy levels.
190
I would say that try your best to nudge the amount of time you spend more towards the energizers.
191
It's less about time management and more about like energy management, like when it comes to productivity and efficiency and all this enjoyment, all this kind of stuff.
192
If the people that you're surrounding yourself with are the people that are raising your energy level, it just makes your whole life more enjoyable, but it also gives you more energy to be able to apply to your studies,
193
but also to apply to the important things outside of your studies.
194
Whereas if the people you're spending your time with are draining your energy, then you have less energy to give to your studies, and now you have to work harder and it feels less fun,
195
and now you have less spare time to do all the other eight things that we've talked about in this video.
196
So I don't mean this in the sense of like, you know, cut out all the friends that are draining your energy, but at least nudge the time that you're spending more towards people
197
that are lifting you up rather than the people that are bringing you down.
198
Now, if you enjoyed this video and you'd like to learn more about how to manage your time as a student, then check out this video over here, which is an in-depth guide of the things
199
that I would do specifically to manage my time and be more productive and be more efficient.
200
So check that out.
201
Thank you so much for watching and I'll see you in the next video.
202
Bye-bye.

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.
