Đang tạo bài học...
1
For a lot of you, speaking is the hardest part of English.
2
You can read it, you can understand it, but the moment it's your turn to talk, something happens.
3
Your brain freezes.
4
The words you knew yesterday are suddenly gone.
5
So I made this challenge for you.
6
Seven days, seven real-life conversations, shadowing every day.
7
Shadowing makes you speak the real words out loud at the exact same time as the characters speaking.
8
Not after, with them.
9
Today is day two of the challenge and today we're at the coffee shop.
10
As I promised, I brought the dog.
11
You are the customer, you walk in, you order, and things do not go smoothly.
12
Here are the words and phrases you need to know first. To go.
13
When you order something to go, you want it packed up so you can take it with you rather than sitting down inside.
14
Next for here.
15
For here means you are staying to sit down and have it inside.
16
It is the opposite of to go.
17
Then to customize your order.
18
When you customize your order, you are changing something about the standard drink, the size, the type of milk, or how sweet it is.
19
Next, oat milk.
20
Oat milk is a dairy-free alternative to regular milk made from oats.
21
It has become very common in coffee shops over the last few years.
22
Then a shot of espresso.
23
A shot of espresso is a small concentrated amount of coffee.
24
When you ask for an extra shot, you are making the whole drink stronger.
25
Next, decaf.
26
Decaf is short for decaffeinated.
27
It is coffee with the caffeine taken out.
28
People order it when they love the taste of coffee but want to avoid the caffeine.
29
Then room at the top.
30
When you ask for room at the top, you are asking the barista to leave a little space in the cup so you can add your own cream or milk.
31
Next, to charge someone.
32
To charge someone means to add a cost to their bill.
33
When the barista says we charge extra for that, it means they are adding that amount to your total.
34
Then, to ring that up.
35
To ring something up means to put the order into the register and calculate the total price.
36
And finally, hang on.
37
Hang on is a very common informal way of saying, wait a moment.
38
You will hear it constantly in everyday conversation.
39
By the way, before we get into the next conversation, I want to tell you about a handbook a lot of you have been asking about.
40
It's called 300 plus English words and expressions.
41
And it's the handbook that goes with what we are doing in this challenge.
42
The reason you freeze when you speak is not that you don't know the words.
43
Sometimes the words you know are not the ones natives use in conversation.
44
You learn delicious at school.
45
Native speakers will most often say, oh my god, this is so good.
46
You learn very tired, but natives be like, oh, I'm exhausted.
47
Same idea, totally different vocabulary, more emotion.
48
This handbook gives you over 300 of these expressions organized by situation with examples of how they are used in real sentences,
49
coffee shops, restaurants, small talk, work, dating, traveling, the kind of vocabulary that makes you sound natural instead of like a textbook.
50
It's a download, so you get it in your email a few minutes after you buy it.
51
And you can use it for shadowing too, which is exactly what we're doing today.
52
The link is in the description.
53
Now let's get into our today's conversation.
54
Ordering coffee.
55
Now just listen to the full conversation.
56
Get familiar with the words, the pacing, and the way it sounds in natural speech.
57
Hi there.
58
Welcome in.
59
What can I get started for you?
60
Hi.
61
Can I get a medium latte, please?
62
Absolutely.
63
Is that for here or to go?
64
To go, please.
65
Perfect.
66
And what kind of milk would you like?
67
We have whole, skim, oat, almond, and soy.
68
Oat milk, please.
69
Actually, wait.
70
Can I also add an extra shot of espresso? Of course.
71
So that is a medium oat milk latte with an extra shot.
72
You want any syrup in there?
73
Vanilla?
74
Caramel?
75
Hazelnut?
76
Hmm.
77
You know what?
78
Can I get half a pump of vanilla?
79
Half a pump?
80
Sure.
81
We can do that.
82
Just a tiny bit.
83
Not too sweet.
84
Oh, and actually, can you make a decaf?
85
I know that probably sounds strange with an extra shot, but I just genuinely love the taste of espresso without the caffeine.
86
Huh, honestly, you are not the first person to order that.
87
Decaf, double shot, oat milk latte, half pump vanilla.
88
Anything else I can add?
89
Actually, yes, sorry, one more thing.
90
Can you leave a little room at the top?
91
I like to add my own cream after.
92
No problem at all.
93
Just so you know, the extra shot does add to the price.
94
It is 75 cents on top.
95
Oh, that is completely fine, yeah.
96
Great.
97
And can I get a name for the order?
98
Alex.
99
Alex.
100
Perfect.
101
Cash or card today?
102
Card.
103
Actually, hang on.
104
Do you guys have any of those coffee cards?
105
Like a loyalty card or something?
106
We do.
107
Every 10 drinks, you get one free.
108
I can set that up for you right now if you want.
109
It only takes a second.
110
Oh yes, please, that would be great.
111
Cool.
112
Let me just grab one.
113
Okay, so I am going to stamp it once for today's order.
114
There you go.
115
Nine more to go.
116
Amazing, thank you.
117
So, what is my total?
118
So, with the extra shot that comes to $6.20.
119
Sorry, quick question.
120
Is the oat milk extra too, or just the shot?
121
Just the shot.
122
Oat milk is included in the base price here.
123
Oh, nice.
124
Good to know.
125
Perfect.
126
I will just need you to tap or insert whichever you prefer.
127
Okay, here's my card.
128
I will tap.
129
Great.
130
That has gone through.
131
So your order is a decaf oat milk latte, double shot, half pump vanilla, room at the top.
132
I will call out Alex when it is ready.
133
Should be about three to four minutes.
134
Perfect.
135
Oh, and is there a sleeve on that cup?
136
I always burn my hand.
137
Always.
138
Yes, we put a sleeve on all the to-go cups.
139
You are good.
140
Amazing.
141
Thank you so much. Of course.
142
Have a wonderful day.
143
You too, thanks.
144
Now it is your turn.
145
The conversation will play again.
146
And this time, say the customer's words out loud at the exact same time you hear them.
147
Same pace.
148
Do not wait.
149
Here we go.
150

Tomorrow we're going clothes shopping for day three.
236
See you there and bye-bye.
Bối cảnh & Nền tảng
Nói tiếng Anh là một trong những kỹ năng khó khăn nhất đối với nhiều người học. Dù bạn có thể đọc và hiểu ngôn ngữ này, nhưng khi đến lượt mình nói, não bộ thường bị "đóng băng". Để giúp bạn giải quyết vấn đề này, một thách thức được đưa ra: tham gia vào quá trình shadowing (bắt chước) trong bảy ngày với bảy cuộc hội thoại thực tế. Video này tập trung vào một tình huống thường ngày tại quán cà phê, nơi mà bạn sẽ thực hành những mẫu câu và từ vựng cần thiết để giao tiếp tự nhiên hơn. Qua đó, bạn sẽ có cơ hội học phát âm tiếng anh chuẩn và cải thiện kỹ năng giao tiếp của mình.
5 Cụm từ Quan trọng cho Giao tiếp Hàng ngày
- To go: Khi bạn muốn mang đồ ăn hoặc đồ uống đi, thay vì ngồi lại quán.
- For here: Dùng khi bạn muốn ngồi lại và thưởng thức tại quán.
- To customize your order: Thay đổi đơn hàng của bạn theo sở thích, chẳng hạn như chọn loại sữa hoặc độ ngọt.
- To charge someone: Thêm chi phí vào hóa đơn của bạn khi bạn đặt hàng.
- Hang on: Một cách thân mật để nói "chờ một chút".
Hướng dẫn Bước từng Bước cho Shadowing
Để tận dụng tối đa các bài học từ video này, hãy làm theo các bước sau:
- Xem video một lần đầu tiên: Tập trung lắng nghe cách nhân vật nói và cảm xúc của họ.
- Lắng nghe và ghi chú: Ghi chú những cụm từ hoặc từ vựng quan trọng mà bạn nghe thấy. Sử dụng shadowspeak để ghi nhớ cách phát âm.
- Thực hành Shadowing: Khi video phát, hãy bắt chước giọng nói và cách nói của nhân vật ngay lập tức. Đừng đợi tới khi họ nói xong.
- Ghi âm lại: Ghi âm lại bản thân khi thực hành để có thể nghe lại và nhận xét về phát âm tiếng anh chuẩn của bạn.
- Thực hành đều đặn: Duy trì thói quen luyện nghe nói qua video mỗi ngày để cải thiện kỹ năng giao tiếp tiếng Anh.
Bằng cách tham gia vào thử thách này và thực hành với những kỹ thuật được đề xuất, bạn sẽ thấy việc giao tiếp tiếng Anh trở nên tự tin và tự nhiên hơn. Hãy kiên nhẫn và tiếp tục luyện nói tiếng anh một cách thường xuyên để thấy những tiến bộ rõ rệt!
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.
