2
A rabbit, of course.
3
They are very fast.
4

5
Because many learners speak like turtles.

They translate every word in their head.

36
And the silver shoes?
37
Yes, I found silver flat shoes and a small silver bag.
38
I am ready.
39
Wow, you are very organized.
40
I am still working on that big report for my boss, Mr. Henderson.
41
Oh no, the report with all the numbers?
42
How's that going?
43
It is… okay.
44
My plan with the coffee and cookies worked.
45
Tom and Sarah are talking again.
46
The office is happy now.
47
See, I told you, cookies solve every problem.

You are very smart, Emily.
49

We're talking about how to think in English.

Ooh, that is a great topic.

65
this episode with your friends too
66
if they are learning english they need these tips okay paul let's start
67
when we say think in english what do we mean well
68
for many people they hear a word in english then they
69
translate it to their own language then they think of an answer in their language
70
and then they translate it back to english oh that is a lot of work for the brain.
71
It is very slow. So slow!
72
It makes people feel tired.
73
Thinking in English means you go from the idea directly to the English word.
74
My first tip for this is don't just think of names of objects.
75
Think in small, simple sentences.
76
Small sentences?
77
Can you give me an example, Emily?
78
Sure.
79
Imagine you are in your kitchen.
80
Don't just look at the fridge and say, fridge.
81
Look at the fridge and think, I am hungry.
82
Or, the fridge is white.
83
Ah, I see.
84
So you connect the object to an action or a feeling.
85
Yes.
86
Or if you see your coffee, don't just say, coffee.
87
Think, I love hot coffee.
88
Or, this coffee smells good.
89
That is a great tip.
90
It is easy because the sentences are short.
91
A1 level sentences.
92
Exactly.
93
You don't need big words.
94
The sun is hot is a perfect thought.
95
The bus is late is a great thought.
96
I like that.
97
My next tip is about internal narration.
98
Internal narration?
99
That sounds like a big word, Paul.
100
What is that?
101
It is simple.
102
It means you become the narrator of your own life.
103
You tell the story of your day in your head oh like a movie yes for example
104
when i wake up i think in my head i am
105
getting out of bed now i am walking to the kitchen i am making tea the water is hot wow
106
so you describe your actions as you do them exactly i
107
am putting on my blue pajamas i am sitting on my red sofa Use the words you know to describe your life.
108
That is very smart.
109
It helps your brain connect English to your real movements.
110
Yes.
111
And if you don't know a word, it is okay.
112
You can just say, the thing.
113
For example, I am opening the… thing.
114
Then, later, you can look up the word for cupboard.
115
That takes the pressure away.
116
You don't have to be perfect.
117
No. Perfection is not the goal.
118
Communication with yourself is the goal.
119
I love that.
120
Communication with yourself.
121
What is your next tip, Emily?
122
My next tip is to make your to-do list in English.
123
A shopping list or a work list?
124
Both.
125
For example, for Maria's wedding, I have a list.
126
Buy flowers, call Maria, practice dancing.
127
Practice dancing?
128
Are you a good dancer, Emily?
129
I am… okay.
130
But the list helps me think in English, because I see the words every time I look at my paper.
131
That is good.
132
I do that with my shopping list.
133
Milk, eggs, apples, cookies.
134
Especially the cookies for Tom and Sarah.
135
Yes, when I see the word milk on my list, I don't think of the word in my language.
136
I just think of the white drink.
137
Exactly.
138
It's about making English a part of your daily routine.
139
I have another one.
140
This is a fun one.
141
I call it the what-if game.
142
The what-if game?
143
How do you play?
144
When you are sitting on the bus or waiting in line, think of simple what-if situations.
145
Give me an example.
146
Okay.
147
What if it rains today?
148
Then you answer in your head, I will use my umbrella.
149
Or, what if I am late for work?
150
Answer, I will call my boss.
151
Oh, that is excellent practice for simple future sentences.
152
Yes.
153
Or, what if I see a dog?
154
Answer, I will say hello to the dog.
155
It is simple and fun.
156
It's like a little conversation in your head.
157
Exactly.
158
And because you are alone in your head, you can make mistakes.
159
No one is listening.
160
That is the best part.
161
Your brain is a safe place to practice.
162
Yes.
163
Emily, what do you think about people using their phones in English?
164
Oh, that is a classic tip.
165
Change the language on your phone to English.
166
Is that difficult for a beginner?
167
It can be a little scary at first, but you already know where the buttons are.
168
True.
169
You know the Settings button and the Messages button.
170
Yes.
171
So when you see settings instead of the word in your language, your brain starts to accept English as normal.
172
Normal.
173
That is a good word.
174
We want English to feel normal, not like a difficult lesson.
175
Exactly.
176
Another tip I like is describing people.
177
Like when you are people-watching at the park.
178
Yes.
179
Look at someone and think of three simple things about them.
180
He is tall.
181
He has a red hat.
182
He is walking fast.
183
She is happy.
184
She has a big dog.
185
They are playing.
186
Yes, it is very easy.
187
You only need colors, basic adjectives, and simple verbs.
188
That is great because it uses the small sentences tip too.
189
I also think it is important to stop using a translation dictionary and start using an English-to-English dictionary for kids.
190
An English dictionary for kids?
191
Why?
192
Because the definitions are very simple.
193
They use A1 and A2 words to explain things.
194
Ah, I see.
195
So if you look up apple, it says a red fruit instead of a long, difficult explanation.
196
Exactly.
197
It helps you think of English words using other English words.
198
That is a very high-level tip, but in a very simple way.
199
Thank you.
200
I try my best.
201
Paul, what do you do when you are stressed?
202
Do you think in English then?
203
Honestly, when I am very stressed, I go back to my own language, and that is okay.
204
I agree.
205
You don't have to think in English 100% of the time.
206
No. Start with five minutes a day.
207
Just five minutes of internal narration, or the what-if game.
208
Only five minutes?
209
Everyone has five minutes.
210
Yes.
211
You can do it while you brush your teeth.
212
I am brushing my teeth.
213
The water is cold.
214
I am tired. That is perfect.
215
Five minutes of English thinking every morning.
216
And slowly, five minutes becomes ten minutes, then twenty.
217
And one day you wake up and realize you were dreaming in English.
218
Has that happened to you, Emily?
219
Yes.
220
Last night I dreamed about the wedding.
221
Maria was wearing a green dress and I was speaking English to everyone.
222
Wow.
223
That means your brain is very happy with English.
224
It is.
225
But it took time.
226
You have to be patient with your brain.
227
Yes.
228
The brain is like a muscle.
229
You have to exercise it.
230
And thinking is the best exercise.
231
It's free and you can do it anywhere.
232
That's true.
233
You can do it at work, at the supermarket, or on the sofa.
234
Paul, let's talk about one more tip.
235
I call it English labels.
236
Oh, I know this one.
237
You put paper on things.
238
Yes, but not for everything.
239
Just for things you always forget.
240
Or for new phrases you want to use.
241
Like, turn off the lights?
242
Yes.
243
Put a small note by the door.
244
Turn off the lights.
245
Every time you leave, you read it and think it.
246
Oh, that is good.
247
It's a visual thought.
248
Exactly.
249
After one week, you don't need the note.
250
You just see the door and think, turn off the lights.
251
I'm going to do that for my bicycle jar.
252
I will put a note that says, saving for my dream.
253
That is a beautiful thought, Paul.
254
And it's in English.
255
It is.
256
See?
257
I am thinking in English already.
258
You are a star student.
259
Thank you, Emily.
260
Wow, we talked about many things today.
261
We did.
262
It was a very productive chat.
263
I feel like my brain is working hard now, but in a good way.
264
Good.
265
That means the tips are working.
266
So, should we remember what we talked about for our friends at home?
267
Yes, let's do a quick recap.
268
Okay.
269
I remember the first one.
270
Don't just name things.
271
Use small, simple sentences like, the coffee is hot, or I am happy.
272
Yes.
273
And then you talked about internal narration, being the narrator of your own movie.
274
I am walking.
275
I am opening the door.
276
Right.
277
And you said we should make our lists in English, shopping lists and to-do lists.
278
Yes, that helps a lot.
279
And don't forget the what-if game for when you are waiting or bored.
280
And the phone, changing the phone language to English to make it feel normal.
281
Also, describing people in the park or on the street with three simple words.
282
And my favorite, starting with just five minutes a day.
283
No pressure.
284
Exactly.
285
And using a simple English dictionary to avoid translating.
286
Whew!
287
That is a lot of great advice, Emily.
288
I hope it helps everyone.
289
It really changed my life when I started doing these things.
290
Me too.
291
It makes speaking much more natural.
292
Well, everyone, that is all the time we have for today.
293
Oh, the time always goes so fast when we talk.
294
It does!
295
But before we go, we want to hear from you!

Yes!

Tại sao nên luyện nói với video này?
Luyện nói tiếng Anh qua video này mang lại cho bạn nhiều lợi ích thiết thực. Đầu tiên, bạn sẽ được nghe các cuộc hội thoại tự nhiên, giúp bạn làm quen với ngữ điệu và cách nhấn trọng âm trong tiếng Anh. Video này không chỉ giúp bạn phát triển khả năng nghe mà còn trang bị cho bạn sự tự tin khi giao tiếp. Học cách nghĩ bằng tiếng Anh là một yếu tố quan trọng giúp bạn loại bỏ việc dịch từ vựng trong đầu, nhờ đó, bạn có thể giao tiếp nhanh chóng và hiệu quả hơn. Thực hành qua video sẽ giúp bạn giảm lo âu và mệt mỏi khi nói như nhiều người học khác. Hãy áp dụng phương pháp shadowspeak để cải thiện kỹ năng nói của bạn một cách tự nhiên nhất!
Ngữ pháp & Biểu thức trong bối cảnh
Các cuộc hội thoại trong video sử dụng nhiều cấu trúc ngữ pháp và biểu thức hữu ích mà bạn có thể áp dụng trong giao tiếp hàng ngày:
- “Do you want to be a turtle or a rabbit?” – Câu hỏi này không chỉ đơn thuần mà còn thể hiện cách so sánh. Bạn có thể sử dụng cấu trúc này để hỏi ý kiến hoặc quan điểm của người khác.
- “It makes people feel tired and nervous.” – Câu này minh họa cho việc sử dụng mệnh đề để chỉ ra tác động của một hành động. Đây là một kỹ thuật quan trọng khi bạn muốn diễn đạt suy nghĩ của mình.
- “I am still working on that big report.” – Cách dùng thì hiện tại tiếp diễn thể hiện một hành động đang diễn ra, giúp bạn cho thấy được sự liên tục trong công việc hoặc hoạt động nào đó.
Việc nắm vững các cấu trúc này sẽ giúp bạn tự tin hơn trong giao tiếp và áp dụng shadowing tiếng anh một cách hiệu quả hơn.
Các bẫy phát âm phổ biến
Khi luyện nói, bạn có thể gặp phải một số từ hoặc cụm từ khó phát âm. Dưới đây là một số ví dụ từ video:
- Các từ như “rabbit” và “turtle”: Cần chú ý đến âm cuối và cách nhấn âm. Những âm này có thể gây nhầm lẫn cho người học.
- Cách nhấn âm trong “beautiful”: Độ nhấn âm không chỉ ảnh hưởng đến cách mà từ được nghe mà còn đến nghĩa của từ khi đặt trong bối cảnh khác nhau.
- Âm “r” trong từ “report”: Phát âm chính xác âm này là rất quan trọng, vì sai lệch có thể làm cho người đối thoại không hiểu ý bạn.
Hãy chú ý luyện tập cách phát âm để không rơi vào các bẫy này. Bằng cách luyện nói tiếng anh qua shadow speech, bạn sẽ cải thiện đáng kể khả năng phát âm và cảm giác tự tin khi giao tiếp.
Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
