1
It's right here, good.
2
Alright.
3
Hello everyone, I'm here with Thiago.
4
And today the video will be a little different because I'm meeting Thiago for the first time, personally.
5
We already know you on the internet.
6
And I don't know a lot about him.
7
So it will be very good for me.
8
And you will meet him together.
9
So I'm going to make some basic questions in English.
10
We'll see where this conversation is going.
11
I'm a kid.
12
They'll think we're in the kid garden.
13
It's been three years since I moved to São Paulo and I am an English teacher.
14
I'm an actor and also filmmaker.
15
So I do lots of stuff, you know, especially related to performing arts.
16
Okay.
17
And so you said you're an actor.
18
What do you act in?
19
What type of things do you do?
20
most of the time I'm a musical theater okay yes so do you sing and dance yeah
21
we've been here in United States touring with our group a couple of years ago
22
and what kind of dance do you do depends on the show
23
but we do jazz we do hip-hop we do contemporary oh I love
24
that that's so cool I didn't know that awesome and And why did you decide to start studying English?
25
Where did this interest in English come from?
26
I always say that through movies, you know?
27
There's this thing called Sessão da Tarde in Brazil.
28
They know what I'm talking about.
29
Yeah, yeah.
30
And we used to watch those movies and everything about the United States, the houses, the schools.
31
It really caught my attention, you know?
32
Very different from my reality.
33
So I was really curious about that language and also coming here to this country.
34
And what's really beautiful with movies that you mentioned is besides the language, you're actually seeing the culture, the differences.
35
A lot of people come here and they notice the yellow school buses.
36
Like, oh, it's just like in the movies.
37
It's cool.
38
Yeah, it's like a little bit of an escape in some ways to a foreign place.
39
I love that.
40
And when you first started studying English, what did you think?
41
Did it come naturally to you?
42
Was it frustrating?
43
It was a mix of everything, but especially because when I started studying English, I didn't have the resources.
44
Okay.
45
So I used to, my mom used to work as a maid.
46
Okay.
47
And I used to ask her mommy,
48
can you, can you try to get some English dictionaries or some kind of material with the people that you work for?
49
I also found a school that they used to throw some books away, the garbage, and I would go take those books and materials.
50
I was really focused, but I didn't have any type of audio resources to study, you know, to improve my pronunciation.
51
So for so long, I studied vocabulary and structures, but I couldn't really speak.
52
Yes.
53
You know, so that was frustrating.
54
Yeah.
55
But after a while I was able to get those tapes, you know, those white tapes.
56
Yeah.
57
With those conversations and dialogues and everything.
58
And then later on CDs.
59
Okay.
60
And I would memorize all of the dialogues, you know, from the CDs and shadowing.
61
I didn't know what I was doing.
62
Right.
63
I was doing something.
64
Isn't that interesting?
65
There's things that you do kind of instinctually.
66
Yeah.
67
No, it just helps, but you didn't know
68
that there was like a name for it or that that actually was like a proven technique to help you learn.
69
Yeah, but I do think that's something that a lot of people relate to because back in the day, back in the dinosaur age when I was a child too,
70
we didn't have access to audio content, even video content like we do now.
71
and learning without that input is really challenging yeah so that's something
72
that i think nowadays we're realizing
73
that you know input just immersing yourself as much as possible
74
and actually just being truly interested yeah that's like the one thing that i think
75
people underestimate genuine interest in learning like if you're genuinely interested and you can't you can't really sell that.
76
The person has to want it, the person has to be interested.
77
Because then you're listening and you're paying attention and you're repeating and you're actively involved in it.
78
And that makes a really big difference.
79
And the culture really helps that.
80
Because if you, for example, I always loved watching um american movies
81
and um listening to english songs to pop artists to r b i love r b mario chris brown
82
and all of those singers you know so i grew up singing
83
and listening to those type of song those types of songs
84
so that really kind of uh helped me yeah because it was something that i was already interested in Yes.
85
So it helped me a lot.
86
Yeah.
87
Oh, that's great.
88
Well, your English is super good.
89
So you definitely do what he did.
90
Take notes.
91
It works.
92
And did you imagine yourself being an English teacher at any point?
93
No. No. Not really.
94
You know, I started, I had a dream, you know, back in the day, like having a English diploma
95
would say like certificate or something like
96
that mean man used to mean a lot a lot you know especially for to get a better job
97
or something like that yes nowadays it's not that important anymore
98
if you're able to speak they don't care if you have the paper
99
or not exactly you know right
100
but back in the day like you should have it
101
and I was always I mean I used to talk to my parents say my dream is to study English
102
and that's cool and and all that I studied studied studying English when I was like nine years old.
103
Okay.
104
And then when I was around 16, I was able to go to a regular English school.
105
I took this like level test or something like that.
106
And then they put me in a pre-advanced level.
107
Oh, great.
108
So to pay the school, I would teach English in my community you know
109
so that's how i became a teacher you know
110
and do you feel that you learned more as a student
111
or more as a teacher i think both yeah
112
but the level i i was teaching was very basic you know
113
so but but i mean that was cool yeah it was cool yeah we had fun
114
and you did go to the united States you spent some time in the US.
115
Yes.
116
How did that happen and what brought you to the US?
117
This dream to make movies.
118
Okay.
119
Yeah.
120
Okay.
121
So um it's always been a dream to attend New York Film Academy and study filmmaking.
122
Uh-huh.
123
Since I was a little boy like that was my dream school.
124
Yeah and um i always love it to write stories
125
and plays so i'm christian so at my church i was the director
126
for a performing arts program and everything
127
so um i think i'm really good at creating stories you know yeah it's things like that
128
so i did this movie in my town my hometown we
129
fundraised uh we got like we were able to raise 30 000 reais something like
130
that yeah and then we made this long this feature film
131
which uh we got seven nominations in international film festival
132
and how old were you i was 21 oh that's amazing
133
and then we got when it we we got three of those um the awards
134
and after After that I kind of thought, okay, that's what I want to do.
135
I'm going to try to go to the United States to study film.
136
And I make this plan, like telling my story.
137
And I didn't tell the school that I didn't have the money to pay, the tuition and all of that.
138
So I enrolled myself and I was in all of the process,
139
like interviews and English tests and portfolio and all of that
140
and I was approved through the whole process and then they told me, okay Tiago you're approved this is your invitation letter
141
but this is the money that you gotta pay
142
and I made this video online telling my story telling people how important
143
that was for me and how I started studying English
144
and what I had returned to my community you know and then people started donating That's amazing.
145
That was pretty cool.
146
They took me to TV, to radio, to newspapers.
147
I love that.
148
To help promote your story and get more donations.
149
Yeah.
150
That's very cool.
151
And then, but I was able to raise just 6,000 reais and I needed so much more.
152
And I remember on November 30th, I was at my house and I got this email from the school saying
153
that there was a deadline to pay the school.
154
I just had that 6,000 reais.
155
And then somebody here in the United States watched my video and they paid my school.
156
Like the whole thing?
157
Yes.
158
The full tuition?
159
And I didn't know.
160
And there wasn't the deadline.
161
And I got the receipt and the invoice and everything.
162
Oh my god.
163
What was your reaction?
164
I was crying.
165
Just like a movie.
166
I'd be like, what?
167
I was crying.
168
Just like a movie.
169
And a couple of days later, I got this calling from this person through Facebook.
170
And he said, before you were born, my parents lived in your city.
171
And your daddy, my dad used to be a bricklayer.
172
Your daddy built the house of my family and we never forgot about him.
173
So that's why we helped you out.
174
Oh my goodness.
175
I just got goosebumps.
176
That's so cool.
177
What a beautiful story.
178
And he was at my house last week.
179
I think I saw the stories on Instagram but I didn't know the whole backstory about him
180
And I wrote my story and I just launched a book Yes, I want to hear all about this book This name,
181
this is my book This is a gift for you Thank you!
182
The dream is not finished, the girl who wanted a paper axe I love this
183
they they denied my visa twice before that school you know approval and all that so i was
184
i had this record of you know heartbreaks you know rejection it's like rejections
185
and those but i kept moving
186
because education was the only way out from the reality
187
that was raised in you know very poor a lot of drugs
188
and all that
189
so i'm really thankful for um also to be a good student i always love to study yeah
190
but i lost
191
so many friends you know my neighbors the friends i used
192
to i was gonna ask about this they talk about like
193
when people want to leave the community or
194
when people want to maybe even leave the family to pursue bigger
195
and better things yes they call it like
196
when you put lobsters in a bucket
197
when one lobster tries to crawl out the other lobsters yeah pull them back in um
198
and i've heard so many stories and i think there's some guilt
199
that comes along because some people might take offense to the fact that you want more or they might think,
200
oh well he thinks he's better than us or things like that.
201
Like how was that experience for you?
202
Did you go through stuff like that?
203
Is that why you lost certain friends?
204
Because they saw you going in a different direction?
205
I think I've always been open about the goals
206
that I had in life and
207
that was kind of awkward to them like to hear me saying that I'm gonna go to the United States, gonna do this yeah what were their reactions like yeah i
208
remember the last day high school i said at the last
209
day of high school i told my my friends um you
210
guys gonna see me on tv yeah you know i love
211
that like confidence that you had yeah yeah
212
and i always wrote my life i mean i had i
213
used to use i used to write journals to practice writing my english writing
214
but also to manifest the life that i wanted to live i love
215
that i was so focused on that that i used to
216
write like interviews uh-huh like journalists interviewing me about the last movie
217
that i did and i had all of that you know it's
218
so funny yeah but it's i mean obviously you did the work to make
219
that happen too yeah
220
and i think that's why some people you can't just like
221
wish your life to happen you really have to see it imagine
222
that it's possible and then do everything you possibly can to make it to make it happen
223
and answering your question about the people
224
that stayed um of course i had a couple friends
225
that kind of uh made fun of me uh
226
but they they everybody knew
227
that it was different there was something different about me every school
228
that i i went to the teachers would say that
229
because i was that kid that goes to the stage on stage
230
and and talks and presents
231
and even preach i was five years old i was preaching already on service okay
232
so you just were like born with that yeah i had
233
that i feel comfortable you know uh in
234
that kind of environment um maybe and for you
235
that you don't know my artistic work i've um i've directed a web series for netflix
236
a couple documentaries and movies that were streamed in the movie theaters.
237
Oh, that's awesome.
238
I toured a couple countries with my musical theater crew, you know?
239
Oh, how cool.
240
So on social media, people don't know, I mean, the whole story.
241
Well, that's so true.
242
That's another lesson about social media.
243
What you see is like 0.5% of a person's life you know there's
244
so much else and I think also
245
when you have a profile that's dedicated to English teaching you don't really mix all the other things
246
that you do on that same profile I love that
247
and were your parents always supportive or were they ever like worried
248
that you had dreams that were maybe too big or anything like that the fun part about that everybody asked me that.
249
It makes no sense, but they always supported me.
250
My dad is a brake layer, my mom is a maid, and I would say, Mommy,
251
I want to go to São Paulo because I want to take that acting workshop for a month,
252
for a week.
253
And then she would bake cakes for me to sell.
254
My parents, my dad always helped me.
255
So now, I'm going to shift gears a little bit.
256
So now you're an English teacher and you're still working in the film and acting and things like that.
257
so tell me about your your family life
258
because i know you're married yeah
259
so tell me about your family how many kids how old
260
are they yeah i'm married to amanda this year we celebrate
261
10 years anniversary wonderful we got two kids kawán who is one year old
262
and kevin who is four years old okay
263
they are the joy of our lives
264
and um we live in san paulo far from our family
265
so it's kind of hard you know at times you know we miss our parents
266
and sometimes having people to help with the kids and all of
267
that yeah but um they are such a joy me
268
and my wife she's a singer as well and an actress
269
so we are in the same musical theater company um a couple maybe last month i launched my book
270
and i wrote a musical about my story oh my gosh i want to know how do you have
271
so much time I guess it's like creative energy to write a book to produce all this content, to have the two kids to be doing all this stuff.
272
I take the whole family along, you know, everywhere I go the whole family goes along.
273
You know, we are rehearsing and the kids are messing around, they go up to stage, you know, like.
274
But it's nice because Kevin is very artistic.
275
I post a couple videos with him.
276
He speaks, he's learning how to speak English.
277
So I'm, I'm like since he was, he was born, I always spoke English with him.
278
Yes, that's good.
279
So he already speaks and understands a lot.
280
Good deal.
281
At home, right?
282
Yes.
283
So maybe Kevin is going to be an influencer or something because he likes the attention.
284
Yes.
285
You know, he's very communicative.
286
Oh, that's great.
287
You never know.
288
You never know.
289
If influencers are still a thing in the future yeah i
290
don't know who knows maybe we'll be replaced that's it it's all like ai bots instead
291
you're right all right so to wrap up here so this doesn't end up being too long
292
um to people that are watching this
293
that have been studying english for a long time
294
or maybe even have other dreams besides being fluent in english
295
like what's what advice would you give to them um my
296
advice would be never lose the track of who you are
297
never lose yourself fighting for any dream it's not worth it yes you know yeah
298
so um try make sure that you have people around
299
that are supporters that are going to be with you in the darkest moments
300
and also in the joyous joyful moments yeah um and
301
and make a little bit a little bit every day you know don't try to
302
to reach the sky at once at one shot you know
303
little by little baby steps a step at a time i love
304
that that's perfect yes there's a a saying in english that say how do you eat an elephant
305
bite by bite which is not the best visual but
306
when you think about it like to me it's very helpful you want to do this really big thing
307
but the only way to do it is like what what tiny little step can i take today yeah
308
and i also really like what you said about don't lose yourself in the process yeah
309
because i do think it's very easy to do
310
that like you will get offers
311
and be tempted to sell your soul in some ways to get a little bit more fame
312
or a little bit more money
313
and there's always a cost yeah we especially with social media
314
you know i've been struggling uh i had i think i had uh i had my momentum maybe a year
315
and a half ago yeah and i wasn't i wasn't able to replicate
316
that yeah and for some for some time i kind of felt a little bit depressed
317
because i felt like i'm not interested anymore people don't want
318
to hear what i have to say uh i'm i'm my numbers i I always talk to Lilian, you know, and she always tells me, Tiago, you're not your numbers, you're not the algorithm.
319
Exactly, yeah.
320
And all that.
321
Yeah, it's true.
322
And if you think of, I mean, at least for me, there were moments when I was doing like really amazing on YouTube and social media, and those were not very happy moments in my life.
323
So it's kind of like maybe I was killing myself to produce a lot of content
324
and do really well on the internet, but then in my personal life, I was sacrificing things
325
so it's like the balance yeah yeah that's beautiful i love
326
that well thank you thank you so much for being here
327
and now he's going to interview me yeah and
328
so you guys got to click on the link in the
329
description to to hear this interview we'll see where it goes
330
but definitely buy his book follow him i'll post all the links thank you very very inspiring story thank you
331

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.
