Hello everyone, welcome back to my Slow English podcast.

Today I'm here with my friend Jay

and we're going to show you guys something very exciting we've collaborated on to help you learn English.
4
We'll have a slow English conversation with lots of hand gestures for you to understand easier.
5
All right.
6
Welcome, Jay.
7
Where are you in the world right now?
8
Thank you, Tiana.
9
Right now, I am in Vietnam.
10
Vietnam is in Asia, which is far from my hometown,
11
in York, in England.
12
How about you?
13
Where are you in the world right now?
14
I am in Mexico.
15
Mexico is not that far from my hometown.
16
My hometown is in the United States, Nebraska.
17
Mm -hmm.
18
Wow.
19
Sorry, one question.
20
Sure.
21
And where in Vietnam?
22
What city in Vietnam?
23
I am living in a city called Da Nang.
24
Da Nang.
25
Da Nang is beautiful.
26
Have you been to Da Nang?
27
Yes, yes.
28
I love Da Nang.
29
I love Vietnam.
30
It's my favorite country.
31
Wow, awesome.
32
Maybe in the future, you can fly to Vietnam.
33
Yeah, I hope so.
34
We can make a video in person.
35
Yeah, yeah, together in person.
36
Sounds good.
37
Could you share with me a little bit about Mexico?
38
Maybe the food, the weather, the people, the language.
39
Tell me about the culture.
40
The food in Mexico is delicious.
41
It's the best in the whole world.
42
It's spicy.
43
It's greasy.
44
A lot of meat in the south of Mexico the weather is hot
45
but in the north of Mexico it's a little bit colder mm -hmm
46
and in Mexico they speak Spanish we speak Spanish mm -hmm The people are very loud
47
and very warm and inviting.
48
And Mexico is a beautiful place to visit.
49
You should come.
50
I would love to visit Mexico.
51
Yes.
52
Can you tell me a little bit about Vietnam? and the culture in Vietnam?
53
Sure.
54
The culture in Vietnam is very different than the culture in the UK, in England.
55
One thing is about the weather.
56
Here in Vietnam,
57
the weather is very humid it's very sweaty it's hot
58
and it's wet it's wet like water there is lots of water in the air
59
and it's very humid it makes me sweat the food is wonderful it's delicious they have my favorite food now
60
which is called pho it's spelled p h o pho
61
and maybe you know
62
but pho is a bowl of noodles with broth broth is like water but with more flavor Mm -hmm.
63
And one more thing about Vietnamese culture is that they are very friendly,
64
very smiley, very happy people, and they always want to help you.
65
They want to show you their country, show you their foods.
66
They are very open, open and warm and welcoming.
67
That's what I loved about Vietnam is that it was similar to Mexico.
68
It was similar because the people are so happy and helping, friendly.
69
Yeah.
70
I loved Vietnam because it's very similar to Mexico.
71
And how is Vietnam different from your hometown?
72
How are the people different?
73
Sure.
74
Sure.
75
In England, in my hometown, people are more closed.
76
They are more closed off and maybe narrow -minded.
77
They are focused on their day, their tasks, their work.
78
In Vietnam, people are more open, as I say.
79
They are just much more friendly and warm towards you.
80
Mm -hmm.
81
Yeah, yeah.
82
Narrow -minded, that's a good word.
83
Mm -hmm.
84
Yes, the opposite being open -minded.
85
Exactly, yeah.
86
Mm -hmm.
87
That's where you are in the world.
88
I like to use real life objects in my videos.
89
What about you?
90
I am the same.
91
I also use real life objects like this mug of Yorkshire tea.
92
Yeah.
93
Yorkshire is...
94
That won't focus let me cover my face let me get a tap focus on
95
that if you put your hand in front of it oh yeah you're right oh yeah sorry but I did
96
there it is Yorkshire tea this is tea from my county Yorkshire
97
and this is a mug these are sunglasses.
98
I'm wearing the sunglasses because it's bright.
99
And this is a bell and I'm ringing the bell to ring the bell.
100
Oh, speaking of ringing, one second, somebody is ringing me now.
101
Hello there.
102
It's great to talk with you today.
103
What's on your mind?
104
Well, what's on my mind?
105
I would like to know how can I improve my English speaking?
106
That's a great question.
107
I think the best way to improve your English speaking is by practicing a lot.
108
You could try watching movies or TV shows in English or listening to podcasts.
109
It helps you get used to the sounds and rhythms of the language.
110
What do you think about that?
111
Well, Miss Honey, I think that that is a fantastic answer.
112
You have helped me.
113
Thank you.
114
Bye -bye.
115
Wait, what?
116
Were you talking to me? Or me?
117
I was talking to, not you, but you.
118
that's so cool i love it i give really good advice you do
119
that was fantastic advice it's gonna help so many english learners to practice speaking
120
so guys i worked with jay to create an AI,
121
an AI conversation partner that sounds exactly like me, Miss Honey.
122
Now, after your videos, you can practice speaking with Miss Honey AI.
123
The easiest way to practice using the vocabulary you learned in a video, by speaking.
124
Let's build your confidence by speaking.
125
You can use the link in the description to try out Miss Honey AI for seven days free.
126
She can help you become fluent in English.
127
Let me show you guys how it works.
128
Hello, Tayana.
129
It's great to talk with you today.
130
What's on your mind?
131
Hey, Miss Honey, it's great to talk to you too.
132
What's on my mind?
133
I'm really excited to introduce this AI so that my students can start practicing speaking every day.
134
That's wonderful, Dayana.
135
It's a great idea to use AI to help your students practice speaking.
136
Repetition is so important for learning.
137
What do you think they will enjoy most about practicing with the AI?
138
I think they'll enjoy speaking with someone who sounds just like me and who speaks slowly and clearly.
139
Thank you.
140
That's great.
141
It sounds like you're saying that your students will enjoy speaking with the AI
142
because it sounds like you and speaks clearly and slowly.
143
It's wonderful that you're thinking of ways to make learning fun and accessible for your students.
144
It's kind of creepy to hear my own voice and speak with myself,
145
but hopefully you guys enjoy speaking with my AI.
146
I have one too.
147
And at first it was weird.
148
It was mind blowing it's so accurate accurate
149
and it sounds just like you she sounds just like you yeah she does she does
150
and so does yours he sounds like you too he sounds just like me Yeah, I think it's so cool.
151
Okay, so we both create videos.
152
I want to know, why did you start?
153
What made you want to start making videos?
154
And was it hard?
155
Or was it scary?
156
I started making videos randomly one day.
157
I was watching a video.
158
I was learning Chinese on a YouTube channel
159
and she was speaking slowly very slowly and finally I
160
was able to understand what she was saying I was able to understand Chinese for a second.
161
And I thought, wow, my students would love a slow English podcast from myself.
162
They always told me,
163
I hate practicing listening to podcasts because everyone speaks too fast and unclear.
164
So I thought I'll make some slow English videos for my students to practice with.
165
And I sat down, I recorded a TikTok and everybody loved it.
166
It went.
167
viral.
168
After that, I just started making YouTube videos and more TikToks.
169
It wasn't very scary because I was just doing what I always did,
170
which was speak English and talk about interesting topics like the different types of intelligence,
171
the meaning of colors, the best parts about traveling, just different topics.
172
So instead of teaching students through online meetings,
173
I would just do the same thing in my videos.
174
And it was even more fun because now I was connecting with thousands of people instead of just one.
175
so it was it was very fun i never felt scared
176
i think wow okay amazing did you did you ever fail with
177
that or did you succeed from the beginning i think i succeeded since the beginning okay
178
but it depends on what you consider a failure maybe I got a lot less engagement on something
179
that I was really excited and proud of and then on something that I didn't think
180
much of it went really viral so like it really depends sometimes you don't expect it sure yeah
181
i think your approach the way you make your videos in such an accessible way it's easy for learners to understand, to comprehend.
182
I love your hand gestures.
183
You make it so easy to watch,
184
easy to listen to, and very valuable, very valuable for learners.
185
Thank you.
186
I even got my nails done because I'm always showing my hands.
187
So I thought I need to have my nails done.
188
I haven't got my nails done.
189
Not yet.
190
Not yet.
191
Yeah, very soon.
192
Yeah.
193
After this, I'll paint them.
194
Yeah, you should.
195
You should.
196
Now, what about you?
197
I, like you, I was an English teacher and I still am.
198
In the past I taught online on my laptop for many years, seven, eight years.
199
I taught children in schools, adults in person and online.
200
But when I moved from England to Vietnam I started making social media videos.
201
Like you, I started TikTok.
202
I made one video every day.
203
But in the beginning, the videos didn't get views.
204
People didn't watch the videos for maybe
205
six months I made videos every single day nothing happened
206
day one day two day three day four nothing happened
207
but i kept going i knew i knew that i couldn't fail if i kept going
208
eventually one video took off it took off it blew up it exploded it went viral like yours not quite as viral.
209
but it went viral and then the rest is history.
210
From there I made the rest, the rest is gone.
211
It's all history.
212
Yeah so for me it was actually quite a lot of failure but I think that's okay.
213
Like I think it's okay to fail if you just keep going.
214
It doesn't matter, brush it off, keep going.
215
and it's failure but at the end it was success so can you even consider it failure exactly
216
yeah sure okay so we have just talked about our stories about becoming content creators from English teachers.
217
Now, I would like to know,
218
was this your dream when you were young?
219
What was your dream when you were young?
220
My dream when I was young was to be a marine biologist.
221
Wow.
222
I loved the ocean, animals, sea animals specifically.
223
And I was very interested in anything that had to do with the ocean.
224
And what about you?
225
What was your dream as a child? as a child like
226
you similar to you i wanted to work
227
with animals especially monkeys i don't know why
228
but as a child i loved monkeys i used to have
229
many soft toys.
230
This is a soft toy.
231
I had many soft toys.
232
They were all monkeys.
233
I had maybe 26 soft toys of monkeys.
234
They had sticky hands so they would stick together
235
and you could hang them on my bed it was always
236
my dream to see an orangutan an orangutan is the man of the jungle
237
or the human of the jungle and they live in indonesia they are big orange apes
238
I still, to this day, still haven't seen one in real life.
239
But I will.
240
You will.
241
That's the important part.
242
I will.
243
You will.
244
Interesting.
245
Because, so, are monkeys your favorite animal?
246
Mm.
247
Are they my favorite animal?
248
What is my favourite animal?
249
They have to be, right?
250
They have to be, yeah.
251
If you have 26 stuffed monkeys, they have to be.
252
Yeah.
253
As a kid, as a child, they were my favourite animal.
254
Now I'm fascinated by cats.
255
Any type of cat.
256
So recently, just yesterday, I was watching a documentary about lions,
257
leopards, and cheetahs.
258
Cheetahs are the fastest land mammal, the fastest animal on land.
259
And for me, I love how,
260
cool word, complex, how complex the cat's character are.
261
Yeah, you've got a better gesture.
262
Complex.
263
They are really cool to watch, observe, and yeah, they're just so successful around the world.
264
Wow, interesting.
265
I would have assumed.
266
that monkeys were your favorite animal because I'm gonna mention this a little bit.
267
Okay.
268
When I was a little girl, I had tons of stuffed animals, but they were elephants.
269
Wow.
270
Even today, I have two stuffed elephants, but I love elephants.
271
Since I was a little girl, I don't know why either, but I've loved elephants.
272
And I always dreamed of seeing an elephant.
273
And just like three months ago, I saw an elephant in real life for the first time.
274
And yeah, it was a dream come true.
275
Amazing.
276
How did you feel when you saw that elephant?
277
I felt very connected.
278
It was almost like I already had seen an elephant because I watched videos all the time.
279
I always dreamed of it.
280
So it was just like it was just coming true.
281
Oh, how lovely.
282
Yeah.
283
They are very intelligent animals.
284
very very and and seeing their eyes
285
and you can just feel the the wisdom yeah and everything
286
that is inside of them you can feel it yeah i love that about animals like they make us present
287
future past we think in the future and the past but animals bring us here and now yeah they make us present.
288
So we've talked about our dreams, about monkeys, elephants and cats.
289
And now, besides animals, what do you like?
290
What are you into?
291
What are you interested in?
292
I'm very interested in dancing.
293
Since I was a little girl, I love dancing, anything.
294
Wow.
295
Putting on music and dancing in my room is something that I've been doing since I was five years old.
296
And whenever I feel overwhelmed or stressed or even just sad,
297
I'll just put on music and I'll dance and I'll feel happy again.
298
So dancing, anything.
299
Salsa, cumbia, modern dancing, ballet.
300
When I was a little girl, I would watch Dance Moms.
301
Have you heard of Dance Moms?
302
I have never heard of Dance Moms.
303
Okay, you'll have to look it up
304
but okay i'll look it up it's um it's this crazy series where these little girls they dance
305
and their moms are always just getting into fights with each other
306
because they're like oh my daughter's better than yours your daughter's
307
being mean to my daughter my daughter should have gotten And this solo, they're very competitive.
308
The moms, but the daughters, they're just there like, they're good dancers.
309
Yeah, they're good dancers.
310
But yeah, I think it was probably a traumatic show for the little girls.
311
I bet.
312
Yeah, when I was little, I loved watching Dance Moms.
313
It was my favorite because the girls were such good dancers.
314
Maddie Ziegler, Sia, you know Sia?
315
I do.
316
Sia has a dancer who dances in her videos all the time.
317
And she's from Dance Moms.
318
She found her on Dance Moms.
319
So they're very famous now.
320
It's very interesting, but it's like my childhood.
321
That's a hobby that I have had since my childhood.
322
How wonderful.
323
Do you dance every day?
324
Hmm.
325
I normally dance.
326
Once or twice a week.
327
Okay.
328
Is it official or is it more just as you please?
329
As I please.
330
As I please.
331
Put on the music and start doing a bit of salsa.
332
Exactly, yeah.
333
I mean, I go to a salsa class once a week.
334
I go to a modern dance class once a week.
335
And then I just dance in my room alone twice a week.
336
Nice.
337
That's a good amount of practice.
338
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
339
And what about you?
340
What do you like to do?
341
I like to dance too but not officially I just I like to move my body so
342
that could be dancing it could be gymnastics it could be
343
running walking playing tennis I like to move I like to stay active.
344
It's important to me.
345
It makes me feel good.
346
It makes me feel strong.
347
It keeps me sharp.
348
As well as that, I love music.
349
I have my guitar over there.
350
I have a piano and I like to sing and rap.
351
I enjoy many things to be honest.
352
I love making videos.
353
I really like being creative.
354
Anything that I can make something, create something, I absolutely love.
355
So yeah, I have many hobbies.
356
And just like I changed from monkeys to cats.
357
I like to change my hobbies and keep things fresh and keep a variety of different things.
358
Yeah, that's a good point.
359
A good point, I guess.
360
Because anything creative, it just feels liberating.
361
It's like, oh, I'm finally relaxed because I got my creative juices out of me.
362
that's a good phrase yeah creative juices yeah we say we
363
say our creative juices meaning just like our creativity yeah
364
and actually i love to rap too it's
365
so much fun to me to find the rhymes with a friend it's just like going back
366
and forth i think it's really good practice even for developing your speaking.
367
Absolutely.
368
Yeah.
369
I do that with like in an improvised way.
370
Like, so one game that I love to play, which maybe I can share with your audience
371
and you maybe to improve my English and my speaking is the word association game.
372
So maybe we can play as an example.
373
So I will say a word and then you say a word that connects or relates to that word.
374
And then we go back and forth like ping pong, like table tennis.
375
So you want to try?
376
Yeah, yeah.
377
Let's do an example.
378
Okay.
379
Let's do an example.
380
Okay.
381
And usually guys I start with something around me
382
so a bell okay so I find something that's
383
so you say related or something that rhymes something it can rhyme
384
or it can be related whatever your first thought is
385
if it could be bell hell or it could be bell ring
386
or it could be bell school and then go back and forth.
387
Okay.

409
Okay.
410
That's a good transition.
411
So you see, we went back and forth.
412
We can play this with ourselves to practice our English speaking too.
413
I can say pen, pencil, rubber, erase, school.
414
Yeah, or even define words that are similar to others, like comprehend, think, understand.
415
Yeah, these synonyms, similar words.
416
Synonyms.
417
Synonyms.
418
Nice.
419
I need to learn from you with your hand gestures.
420
Yeah, synonyms.
421
Cool.
422
I wanted to talk about one more thing that's close to me.
423
As an English teacher, I also love languages.
424
You are a mix of American and Mexican.
425
Is that correct?
426
That's correct.
427
So, do you speak languages?
428
Which languages do you speak?
429
I do.
430
I speak English and Spanish.
431
What about you?
432
I speak English, obviously.
433
Spanish and French when I was in university studying I learned Spanish
434
and French translation I love to learn languages that's actually
435
a big reason why I started my YouTube channel it's why I taught before and it's why I started Sprout which is
436
my English platform, which helps non -native speakers like you guys to improve your English,
437
to become better and to immerse yourself in the English language through watching, listening and speaking.
438
To learn in a natural way.
439
That's how you learn a language by learning naturally,
440
by watching, learning, listening, and speaking.
441
And remember, guys, if you want to practice speaking with Miss Honey AI,
442
then click the link in the description, and you'll get seven days trial for free.
443

446
Thank you, Miss Honey.
447
Thank you, Tiana, for having me.
448

450

Tình Huống Thực Tế
Trong video này, chúng ta sẽ tham gia vào một cuộc hội thoại tiếng Anh chậm giữa hai người bạn là Tiana và Jay. Họ đang chia sẻ về vị trí địa lý của mình, những trải nghiệm văn hóa và ẩm thực của các quốc gia họ đang sống. Đây là một tình huống rất thực tế mà bạn có thể gặp trong cuộc sống hàng ngày, đặc biệt là khi trò chuyện với bạn bè quốc tế hoặc trong các chuyến du lịch. Cuộc đối thoại này không chỉ giúp bạn hiểu rõ hơn về phương ngữ, mà còn cung cấp cho bạn nhiều từ vựng và cụm từ hữu ích. Hãy cùng khám phá!
Các Cụm Từ Hữu Ích
- Where are you in the world? - Bạn đang ở đâu trên thế giới?
- I love [place] - Tôi yêu [địa điểm]
- It's my favorite country - Đây là quốc gia yêu thích của tôi
- The food is delicious - Món ăn rất ngon
- The people are very warm - Con người rất thân thiện
Những cụm từ này không chỉ giúp bạn giao tiếp tốt hơn mà còn tạo cơ hội để mở rộng vốn từ vựng của bạn. Việc ghi nhớ và sử dụng chúng trong các cuộc hội thoại hàng ngày sẽ giúp bạn tự tin hơn khi nói tiếng Anh.

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.
