Hello, welcome to my video.
2
Let's try to practice your listening skill.
3
Now move on to conversation one.
4
And the topic is, I do speak Spanish.
5
Listen carefully.
6
Sarah, you've taught in a bunch of different places.
7
What countries have you taught again?
8
Quite a few.
9
I've taught in Korea, Ecuador, Taiwan, Mexico, Japan, and the USA.
10
Okay, so you're a language teacher.
11
You've taught in all these amazing countries.
12
So let's talk about the languages first.
13
Do you speak Japanese?
14
I Don't I'm embarrassed.
15
I've lived here six years, but I don't How about you do you speak Japanese?
16
I do speak Japanese.
17
Oh you do yeah, but it's not very good People don't hear me say it that much because it's really bad, but I do speak Japanese, but it's bad But what about the other languages?
18
You lived in Korea.
19
Did you study Korean?
20
I did.
21
I did study Korean.
22
And I did learn to read very well.
23
But now I've forgotten, so I can't speak it anymore.
24
I heard that it's relatively easy to learn the alphabet in Korea.
25
Yes, it is.
26
It was invented by a scientist to be simple and easy to learn how to read.
27
So it is very easy.
28
What about China?
29
Did you learn Chinese?
30
I didn't.
31
I did study a lot, but in the end I found it too difficult.
32
Do you speak Chinese?
33
I don't speak Chinese, but I lived in Thailand for five years and I do speak Thai.
34
And I did study Thai when I was there. So yeah.
35
And it's tonal, so it's kind of similar in some ways to Chinese.
36
And can you read Thai?
37
I can read Thai.
38
Yeah, I do read Thai.
39
So actually my Thai reading is probably better than my Japanese.
40
Oh wow.
41
Yeah, but it's hard because in Thai the words kind of stick together.
42
Now you were in Mexico and in Ecuador.
43
Yes.
44
So do you speak Spanish?
45
I do speak Spanish.
46
That was one of my goals for moving there was to become fluent
47
and I'm very happy now I can say I do speak Spanish.
48
And your husband was with you.
49
Does he speak Spanish?
50
Yeah, he does speak Spanish.
51
He studied a lot and really improved a lot, so now he can say the same thing.
52
He does speak Spanish.
53
And your children?
54
They do too.
55
They speak Spanish.
56
Oh, nice.
57
And your children are with you now in Japan.
58
Do they speak Japanese?
59
They don't.
60
They're learning very quickly.
61
So I think they will improve and in a couple of months I can say that they can.
62
But right now their Japanese is very low.
63
So you were just in Mexico.
64
Do you miss Mexico?
65
I do miss Mexico.
66
I miss the food the most.
67
I miss the Spanish language and I miss the music.
68
How about you?
69
Do you miss Thailand?
70
I do miss Thailand a little bit, but not too much because I visit there a lot.
71
So it's not that big of a deal.
72
I go there usually once or twice a year.
73
But when I'm in Japan, I do miss it.
74
I miss the food especially.
75
Now we both are outside of the US.
76
We don't live in the US.
77
Do you miss living in the US?
78
I do miss living in the US.
79
I often miss that I understand and I know the culture so well.
80
Sometimes in Japan I feel like an outsider.
81
And so I do miss being in the USA and being able to blend into the background to be just another person.
82
How about you?
83
Do you miss the USA?
84
I don't.
85
I don't miss it at all.
86
So I visit it.
87
I do miss my family and I do miss some things, especially like the food and the nature.
88
But I don't miss actually living in America.
89
Maybe because I go back so often.
90
So these days it just doesn't seem like a big deal.
91
Now, we are both in Japan.
92
Do you plan to teach somewhere else soon?
93
I don't.
94
I hope to stay in Japan for a couple of years.
95
We are relaxed, we are settled, the children are in school.
96
I hope we can stay here.
97
How about you?
98
Are you going to stay?
99
Or do you have plans to go?
100
I do have plans to go, actually, and I want your old job.
101
Really?
102
I want to work for the U.S government, and I want to work in a different country.
103
You should do it.
104
I will.
105
That is the end of conversation one.
106
Now move on to conversation two.
107
And the topic is job duties.
108
Listen carefully.
109
So, Sarah, you were a teacher for the State Department?
110
Yes, that's right.
111
I was with the English Language Fellows Program.
112
Oh, wow.
113
And where did you teach?
114
I taught in Mexico.
115
Oh, that's great.
116
Wow.
117
So, when you teach for the State Department, do they let you where? anything you want?
118
Do you have to wear a suit or anything?
119
They let you wear anything that is professional.
120
You don't have to wear a suit, but you can't wear jeans.
121
Okay.
122
Do they let you teach anything you want?
123
No, they don't let you teach anything you want.
124
You do have a lot of freedom, but they have some requirements.
125
So you might have to teach university students beginning English,
126
or you might have to teach university students engineering English.
127
You have freedom how you're going to teach those subjects, but they don't let you choose the subjects.
128
Okay.
129
And when you work for the U.S government, do they make you do a lot of paperwork?
130
They do.
131
They do make you do a lot of paperwork.
132
When I applied for the job, it was the most difficult job application I'd ever done.
133
They make you fill out a lot of forms
134
and they make you ask your references to fill out a lot of forms too.
135
And then when you do move to the country, they make you fill out even more forms for the work visa and the residency visa.
136
Oh, wow.
137
That sounds pretty harsh.
138
It's really difficult.
139
They do try to help you with the forms,
140
but the official rule is that they will only help the official employee.
141
I traveled with my husband and three kids.
142
They let me bring my family, but they didn't help me with the paperwork for my family.
143
Oh wow.
144
So, does the government help you get acclimated?
145
For example, do they help you learn the language?
146
Do they help you with moving costs?
147
Do they help you get acquainted with the local culture?
148
Some of those are yes and some are no. They don't help you learn the local language.
149
That is up to you individually.
150
They do help you become acclimated to your town.
151
They travel with you to your town.
152
They make your host institution find you housing.
153
So that's really nice.
154
They help you with the housing, they make your institution find you housing.
155
And they let you have some time to get used to it before you're required to be working 40 hours a week.
156
So you've worked for a university.
157
You've worked for the U.S government.
158
Have you worked for language schools?
159
I have.
160
When I worked in Korea, I worked for an independent, privately owned language school.
161
And we taught after-school lessons.
162
So which did you prefer?
163
Which ones did you like?
164
Well, my favorite has been the university job because they let you choose your own hours.
165
You have to teach the classes, but if you don't have class,
166
they let you plan your lessons from home or whatever time of day that you want to do it.
167
I like that.
168
But when I was working for the State Department, they made you work regular 9 to 5, Monday to Friday hours.
169
Oh, right.
170
Yeah, they made you work those hours.
171
I liked the private language school.
172
It was a good job for me at the time, but they also make you work the hours that they need you,
173
which is 2 to 7 p.m.
174
Tuesday through Saturday.
175
And those are not the best hours to be working, so I didn't like that.
176
But the language school helped me the most.
177
They taught me language, they took me on trips,
178
they really treated me like a part of the family in a way that the university and the state department didn't.
179
So that was a really good memory, a good job.
180
So if you could rank the jobs between university, working for the US government, and a language school, what would you rank 1, 2, 3?
181
Just exactly how you said it.
182
University would be the top.
183
The State Department would be very close.
184
Very close second.
185
And then the language school would be a little farther, farther down.
186
The pay was a lot lower.
187
The hours were not very good.
188
I didn't have freedom.
189
They make you work more.
190
Make you work more.
191
Yeah.
192
Right.
193
Okay.
194
That's awesome.
195
Thanks.
196
Thanks.
197
That is the end of video today.
198
You did very well so keep going.
199
If you have any questions, just let me know in the comment section.
200
Bye bye and see you in the next video.

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。
