Welcome to the English Dream Podcast.

My name is Gemma.

I decided to make this podcast because I want to help people learn English.

12
and specifically a podcast with slow English.
13
So
14
My podcast will try to help you practice your English listening and I will try to speak slowly.

37
three weeks ago and yeah I'm 30 now and I feel excited,

a bit nervous but yeah happy.
39

43
My dad is from England and I was born in London.
44
Both my parents moved to London when they were in their 20s.
45
Lots of people do this because in London there's lots of opportunities for work.
46
Fact number four is I can speak Spanish.
47
I actually have previously lived in Mexico or Mexico and when I lived there I learned Spanish.
48
At the beginning it was difficult to
49
communicate and have conversations but slowly I improved and now my Spanish is very good.
50
I also would like to learn a new language.
51
I'm thinking about learning French or Portuguese.
52
Which one should I choose?
53
Fact number five is related to my character.
54
So, how would I describe Gemma?

56
I like to speak to people and And I like to learn about new things.
57
And yeah, I really like interacting with others.
58
And I'm usually optimistic as a person.
59
So I think that there's lots of opportunities out there.
60
and yeah, I think the world is a confusing place but also a beautiful place.
61
Now let's do five funny facts about me.
62
Okay so one is I'm very good at table football.
63
When I was younger, However,
64
when my parents would go to work,
65
I would go to a nursery and at the nursery there was a table football
66
and the manager and I were good friends.
67
we knew each other since I was three months old to 15 yeah
68
so he was like a dad to me
69
and he was very good at table football so we played nearly every school day
70
and yeah so now I'm very good and I want to continue practicing because it's fun.
71
Yeah there's lots of adrenaline and excitement.
72
My second funny fact is I love humans.
73
I think we're just we're very interesting and complicated
74
and I like the way we interact with each other
75
and the way we form friendships and we have these different sides of us.
76
I think that's also why I like to teach because I like to interact with others and I think
77
it's really nice to help people learn and yeah a lot of people want to learn English
78
okay my third funny fact is I love Harry Potter yes I am British and yes I love Harry Potter
79
I think now when people think of England,
80
they think of Harry Potter.
81
They think of Harry Potter,
82
the monarchy, so the king and the queen.
83
They think of tea.
84
Those are some things people immediately think about.
85
And I think Harry Potter is amazing because there is so much imagination in that story.
86
I think it speaks a lot about human character and how we evolve and grow up and our different morals.
87
And yeah, I think it's just really exceptional.
88
My fourth fact is I used to play football.
89
When I was younger, I played football from about eight to 16.
90
It's obviously a very important sport in England.
91
My dad is obsessed with football.
92
His team is very important to him.
93
In our house, we watch football every day.
94
and for me I enjoyed playing when I was younger
95
because it was a nice way to play with other people in my age group
96
and yeah I like the game I like the passion people have for football and the tactics and the strategy.
97
Yeah, it's a really beautiful game and very important in British culture.
98
My fifth funny fact is I used to teach English in Mexico City.
99
Yeah, so when I moved to Mexico,
100
I taught English in an academy
101
and it was a lovely experience because Mexican people in general are very friendly and curious.
102
It was lovely to interact with them and to help them improve.
103
In the school there were adults,
104
there were adolescents, there were young children and both the students
105
and the teachers really welcomed me and it was a great experience for me.
106
And part of the reason I would like to do this
107
podcast is to help people to learn English outside of a classroom.
108
Because I think a lot of language learning happens outside of classrooms.
109
It happens listening to podcasts.
110
It happens watching films with subtitles.
111
It happens reading an Instagram post with English captions.
112
So hopefully this podcast can help people to improve their English in a new way.
113
Okay, so they are some facts about me.
114
In my next podcast, I will change the format.
115
So I will speak more about my week,
116
how I was feeling, and hopefully you join me.
117
Thank you so much, and have a lovely day.
118
Bye!

练习提示
在练习过程中，建议您采用跟读（shadowing）的方式。这意味着在播放视频时，您需要尽量模仿Gemma的语音、语调和节奏。由于Gemma的讲解速度相对较慢，非常适合英语口语练习，您可以轻松追上她的节奏。在模仿时，注意Gemma在每个句子中的情感表达，例如兴奋和紧张，这样不仅能提升您的发音，还能帮助您掌握英语对话的自然语感。
此外，您可以多次回放视频并跟着进行口语练习。每次重复都会加深您对词汇和短语的记忆。若想进一步提高您的英语发音和交流能力，不妨关注类似的慢速英语内容，将其作为您看YouTube学英语的资源之一。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
