How do I get better at answering questions impromptu?
2
How do I get better at answering questions on the spot?
3
And when you're finished with that,
4
perhaps you could tell us what you personally have been doing for the last seven years.
5
And the answer to this is really dependent on the context.
6
Because when are you getting the questions asked?
7
Is this during a job interview?
8
Is this while you're in a team meeting?
9
Is this while you're on stage?
10
Context is critical.
11
and we have a very powerful tool now that we all have access to.
12
So say for example,
13
if you are a pharmacist that's about to speak at a
14
conference about how to improve your abilities as a pharmacist in terms of counseling,
15
then you can put those parameters into ChatGPT and you can say into ChatGPT,
16
I'm currently a pharmacist speaking at a conference and I'm running a session on how pharmacists can become better at counseling,
17
list me 20 questions that people might ask me during a session like this.
18
And it's crazy because ChatGPT will then create you a list of 20 to 25 questions that people could potentially ask you.
19
And then your job is to turn on your camera,
20
turn on your camera.
21
Imagine you are at a pharmacy conference.
22
And as you read those questions that pop up,
23
Imagine it's actually real and you have to answer it.
24
You just have to.
25
You can't go, ah, ah,
26
ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
27
ah, ah, pause video, gotta go,
28
no, no, no, no, because this is a safe environment here.
29
This is where you can practice.
30
So all of a sudden you've got that one test question, practice answering it.
31
And even if you do that answer and you answer it really poorly, it doesn't matter.
32
Just get through that one cycle because a cycle done poorly is better than a half cycle done.
33
Just go through that answer completely.
34
Then you can watch that video of yourself answering the question back and going, oh, wow.
35
Okay.
36
I actually knew the answer to that,
37
but I fell apart because of the pressure.
38
The pressure caused me to just crumble.
39
Oh, I need to take a few breaths before I answer it.
40
I need to relax more.
41
I need to look up some forms of relaxation.
42
Or you might watch the video back and as you review yourself,
43
you go, oh, my goodness.
44
Yeah.
45
Okay.
46
The reason I couldn't answer that is actually because I didn't know the answer.
47
That question just revealed to me a knowledge gap.
48
I need to make sure I do a little bit more study before I jump into these Q&As because yeah,
49
I needed to know the answer to that.
50
Can you see the importance of that?
51
Learning how to get good at speaking impromptu,
52
it requires many different muscles being trained.
53
One, you have to learn how to speak on the spot and deal with the anxiety that does come up from that.
54
You have to learn how to manage those nerves.
55
Two, you have to know your content, right?
56
And three, one that we didn't talk about yet,
57
but I'm just going to throw in there as well,
58
is you're also going to get questions where you actually need
59
to learn how to have the confidence to take a moment to give yourself time to process the thoughts,
60
structure the answer, and then answer.
61
But that's a skill in itself too.
62
The ability to just pause,
63
maybe even take out a pen
64
and write some ideas down the confidence it takes to even do
65
that part takes time to develop
66
so i'm giving you a a bit of a game to play here where you can get chat gpt
67
and your video camera all of a sudden now you can
68
start practicing all of the different muscles that's going to allow
69
you to become a better speaker impromptu right a better impromptu speaker
70
but there are so many different muscles that you have to practice
71
and those muscles will become relevant
72
and you'll be able to identify what those muscles are the moment you start the process that I've just shared with you.
73
What advice do you have for handling unexpected challenges during a speech,
74
such as technical difficulties, unresponsive audiences or hecklers?
75
These are three different situations,
76
so quick thoughts on each of those situations.
77
Number one, when you have technical difficulties...
78
The type is all off,
79
sorry, but I'll just wing this.
80
Tell us what you think.
81
Excuse me, I'm sorry.
82
I'm sorry.
83
Okay.
84
If I'm on stage and I've got technical difficulties,
85
I would immediately do this.
86
Hey, quickly, just to the AV team,
87
just letting you know, I'm having troubles with my mic.
88
Now, to all the audience members,
89
just letting you all know too,
90
we're just going to take a quick five minutes to fix a couple of AV problems.
91
We're going to play some music for you all.
92
Please do have a chat amongst yourselves.
93
We'll be back in five.
94
AV team plays some music.
95
We check the things going on audience got instruction,
96
they're chatting among themselves, all done, right?
97
Problem kind of solved, sort it out,
98
then go back on stage, then continue.
99
Second example, Vin, what if the audience is not responsive?
100
Okay.
101
If the audience is not responsive because they are tired and it's after lunch,
102
then don't go straight into a presentation.
103
Don't go straight into the meeting.
104
Before you do the meeting, do a quick activity.
105
Do a quick activity with everyone.
106
Just go, hey everyone, before we kind of kick things off,
107
I know it's right after lunch,
108
I want to get our energy levels up a little bit.
109
How about we play a quick game of two truths and a lie?
110
Boom, let's go.
111
They play, they come back,
112
they're energized, now they're responsive.
113
Third example you gave is hecklers.
114
Well, if you're in a meeting,
115
you can also, before you go into the meeting or before you go into the presentation,
116
make sure you've got someone close by who you can say,
117
hey, look, if there are any hecklers,
118
do you mind just dealing them with for me?
119
Because this is a professional event.
120
So do you mind just removing them from the audience, if that's possible?
121
Or if you don't have that,
122
then you can disarm the heckler.
123
So if someone says during one of my communication classes,
124
I think everything you're saying is not true.
125
I don't believe in it.
126
I think it's wrong.
127
I'll stop the class.
128
I'll pause and I'll look at the person and I'll say,
129
listen, thank you so much for your opinion.
130
I'm in the middle of a class at this point.
131
Do you mind if I take this conversation with you offline outside afterwards?
132
It's okay.
133
I'd love to connect with you.
134
I'd love to hear your opinion.
135
I'd love to hear your side of it,
136
but just right now, everyone has asked me to run this one and a half hour session.
137
I am 45 minutes in.
138
I've just got 45 minutes left.
139
Is it okay if I complete the class and then we can connect with it offline outside.
140
Is that okay?
141
Thank you.
142
Then I'll begin.
143
Then I'll just continue with my talk.
144
So to me, the moral of the story with each one of these situations is when something does go wrong,
145
acknowledge it, take control of this situation,
146
set the expectations of what's going to happen while you're fixing things or while you're sorting things out.
147
And to me is have authority while you're doing this.
148
If you are the one that's currently speaking,
149
you are the one that's in control.
150
If you are the one with the mic,
151
you are the one that's in control.
152
Take that control and navigate your way out of it with authority.
153
Vin, how do I stop people who keep talking and never stop
154
and I can't even get a word in and I have something really important to say?
155
I feel like I'm the perfect,
156
perfect person to answer this because I'm one of those people.
157
So speaking on behalf of all people who talk a lot and never give others a second to talk,
158
I'm going to give you the and how to take us down.
159
This is our kryptonite.
160
I'll give you two strategies that are a softer approach and then I'll give you a really strong nuclear approach.
161
Now, approach number one, visual indicators.
162
So if someone's talking and you've got ideas and you want a turn to be able to share your ideas,
163
you can give them a visual indicator.
164
And a visual indicator can look like this.
165
Right?
166
So if I go from this position to this position,
167
I clearly have something to say.
168
Right?
169
So again, you can do the palm,
170
you can do the finger,
171
you can go, oh, right,
172
you can kind of just lift your hand up.
173
And a variation of that visually lets the other person know that you have something to say.
174
Now, if you are speaking to someone like me,
175
sometimes when I get really passionate, I basically become blind.
176
And I'm just talking, talking,
177
talking, talking, oh, I love the sound of my own voice.
178
Oh, I love my idea.
179
And I'll just keep going.
180
So in order to get my attention visually,
181
if I don't see it,
182
it's not because I'm mean,
183
it's usually because I'm just a little bit passionate.
184
So then to get through to me,
185
now you can pair a visual indicator with a sound, auditory.
186
So now instead of just going like this,
187
I can go, oh, um, just quickly.
188
Oh, one of those variations.
189
All of a sudden now I've paired a visual indicator with an auditory indicator that I have something to say.
190
And those two strategies should be enough to be able to deal with the worst of us,
191
the worst of us.
192
However, there is a 0.00001% of our population who are just relentless.
193
Oh, they're monsters.
194
There are even monsters that monsters are scared of.
195
And if you're dealing with someone like that,
196
I luckily don't fall into that category,
197
but I will tell you that,
198
you know, I'm still a monster, but not that scary.
199
But if you do find a monster that is that scary,
200
that just doesn't stop after visual and auditory indicators,
201
well, then what you need to do now is you need to create space for you to speak.
202
You need to stand up for yourself.
203
So say for example, you're talking to this person and they just keep talking because again,
204
they love the sound of their own voice
205
and they just really love their idea and they're really passionate
206
and sometimes they can be very egotistical and they just want to keep going.
207
You just have to be like,
208
Vin, I just want to quickly jump in here.
209
Vin, I know you're still talking,
210
but this is really important.
211
I need to get this across and I would love to just take one minute to share my idea.
212
And even if I'm talking over the top of you while this is happening,
213
just full commit to creating your own space
214
and they will stop they will just confidently commit don't do
215
the whole damn it he's still going yep he bloody loves himself
216
that guy guy so annoying looking at me can't even grow a mustache

语境与背景
在学习英语口语时,处理突如其来的问题是一个重要的技能。面对面试、团队会议或演讲时,如何从容自信地回答问题,可以大大提升你的沟通效果。今天我们将探讨如何在这样的情况下做出迅速而恰当的回答,通过练习和准备来增强自信心。
日常交流的五个关键短语
- “这是个很好的问题!”— 用于引导回答,给自己一点思考的时间。
- “让我想一想。”— 表达你在思考这个问题,有助于保持冷静。
- “根据我的经验…”— 从个人经验出发,让回答更具真实性。
- “在这种情况下…”— 理清问题的背景,有助于深入分析回答。
- “我不确定,但我会努力找出答案。”— 表达诚实和对探索答案的积极态度。
逐步模仿指导
为了提升你的应对能力,建议使用模仿练习(shadowing)。下面是具体的步骤指导:
- 选择一个视频:找一个相关主题的英语视频(例如关于职业发展的讲座),确保其内容涉及你可能面临的问题。
- 分析问题:观看视频时,注意讲者如何回答突发问题,并记录下来。
- 重复模仿:使用 shadow speech 技术,尝试跟随讲者的回答,逐字模仿发音和语调。这可以帮助你掌握流利度和自然的语音节奏。
- 反思和调整:录下自己的回答,回顾时寻找改进的空间。如果回答不够流利,思考哪些地方需要补充知识或改变表达方式。
- 定期练习:在你的练习中加入 雅思口语练习,这样可以不断提高你的表达能力和自信心。
通过这样的 shadowspeaks 练习,你将能够更自信地应对突发问题。记住,每一次的练习都是一步向前,帮助你更加从容地应对各种社交和专业场合!
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。
