1
So why are we asking you to write an essay as part of your application to VIN Uni?
2
We're trying to get a little bit more insight into you as a person, specifically in four attributes, ability, aspiration, creativity, and commitment.
3
This essay will focus on aspiration and commitment.
4
We want to know your aspirations and your commitments as a person.
5
So how can you be successful in this essay.
6
The first thing is make sure you answer the question.
7
We want to hear your personal story
8
and we want you to describe a real event from the past in which you've really persevered and tried hard to achieve.
9
The second part is to describe an aspiration for the future
10
and we want you to describe something which is really meaningful that you really want to achieve sometime in the future.
11
The important thing is to describe and show show us that you have some characteristics.
12
Show us that you have drive.
13
Show us that you have initiative.
14
Show us that you have perseverance.
15
And show us that you want to dream big and achieve something in the future.
16
How do you get started with this essay?
17
My first advice is read the question really carefully.
18
Read it 10 times to make sure that you understand what is this question asking you to do.
19
Second, I'd recommend to make a list or a mind map of all of the different ideas you have for this topic.
20
After that, give it to a friend or a teacher and and get some feedback on your ideas.
21
Are they relevant?
22
Do they work in this particular essay?
23
And number four, after you finish writing, make sure you get lots of different feedback from different people and revise your essay so it's the best it can be.
24
So how do you organize this particular essay?
25
It's actually a very simple organization.
26
Probably we'll start with the introduction.
27
And in introduction, you're going to set up exactly how are you going to organize your two main parts.
28
And the two main parts are commitment and aspiration.
29
After you talk about those in the body paragraphs, the conclusion would do a nice simple summary of what was your main commitment
30
and what is your main aspiration for the future.
31
So you can see it's a very simple structure, just two main body paragraphs, one for each of the two questions.
32
Here are some tips for success in this essay.
33
First of all, get personal.
34
This essay is for the panel to get to know you as a person.
35
So make sure it's about you and it's personal, not about something somebody else did, not about something in theory you would like to do, about you personally.
36
Number two, be truthful.
37
We want to know what you actually did in the past and what you actually want to do in the future.
38
So please don't make things up, don't embellish the truth, make it truthful.
39
Number three, not too formal.
40
This isn't a super formal essay.
41
It's a very personal essay.
42
So you don't have to worry about being academic, being too formal.
43
We just want to know about you as a person.
44
Number four, don't just describe the what, but also the why.
45
If you only describe your ambition for the future, it's not enough.
46
We want to know why do you want to achieve this goal in the future.
47
So don't just describe the what, but also the why.
48
First, one tip is that because a very short book is a very short book, we can only read the best information for the book.
49
So we need to read from 1 to 3 books for the book, and we need to read the book for the book.
50
So that the book is not to be a long book.
51
And the tip is that because we read the book is often a good source of the
52
we write a book for a book that is just like the book
53
that I sent you then it doesn't need to be needed
54
so we need to write a book that is a story to tell you about the story
55
I have two words to you
56
first is that you don't need to use the words that are so very important And more importantly, we need to focus on how to explain the story to people read the story.
57
And second, you don't need to become anyone else.
58
Because if you are in your own business, then you will see the ability of your business.
59
With me, to do a good business, first we need to connect the topic of the business with the practicality.
60
From there we can bring out the ideas and the creative ideas.
61
After finishing the writing, Please remember to write the words, the words and the words of the text so that you can be perfect and better.
62
And if you can send the teacher, friends, friends to see.
63
The second question is very useful for you.

推薦影片

為何這個影片是絕佳的英語口語練習素材?

影片中招生官的表達清晰自然,語速適中,內容圍繞“ essay 寫作技巧”展開,話題貼近學習生活,非常適合用來練習影子跟讀法(shadow speak)。其口語化的用詞和邏輯清晰的結構,能幫助學習者在模仿中掌握實用的表達和敘事節奏,同時還能積累留學申請相關的詞彙,一舉多得。

拆解自然表達,學習地道口語

我們來看看影片裡的幾個句子,為何它們聽起來自然又實用:

  • “Read it 10 times to make sure that you understand what is this question asking you to do.” 這裡用“10 times”而非“many times”,更具體且口語化,符合日常交流習慣。模仿時注意“make sure that”的連讀和語調。
  • “Show us that you have drive. Show us that you have initiative.” 重複“Show us that”形成排比,增強表達力度。“drive”和“initiative”都是精準的書面用詞,但用在口語中並不突兀,體現了正式與口語的平衡。
  • “This isn't a super formal essay. It's a very personal essay.” 用“super”代替“very”,更具口語化特徵,讓表達更親切。“isn't... It's...”的對比結構,簡潔明瞭,適合模仿其節奏。

影子跟讀法練習步驟,輕鬆提升口語

利用這個影片進行shadowing練習,可遵循以下簡單流程:

  1. 先完整觀看影片,熟悉內容和語調。
  2. 逐句播放,每句暫停後立即跟讀,模仿發音、語速和重音。重點練習“get personal”“be truthful”等短語的連讀。
  3. 用錄音裝置記錄自己的跟讀,對比原影片,找出語調、停頓的差異,反覆修正。
  4. 嘗試脫稿複述,用自己的話總結影片中的寫作技巧,檢驗理解和表達能力。

堅持使用影子跟讀法(shadowspeak),結合合適的shadowing site資源,你的英語口語會在不知不覺中變得更流利自然。記住,練習貴在堅持,每天10分鐘,效果看得見!

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:

結構影片中的用法

最高階 the -est / the most … — 一組中最高或最低的the best
義務:must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的have to worry · need to read · need to be
“will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測will focus · we'll start · will see

什麼是跟讀法?

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
