9
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:20.160
it doesn't matter if you're working

10
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:22.000
alone or with a teacher i'm going to

your own or with a teacher and actually

14
00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:30.240
all of these activities you can do by

15
00:00:30.240 --> 00:00:32.000
yourself believe it or not it's the

16
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.159
hardest part of the toefl speaking and

17
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:36.800
practicing speaking in general is how

18
00:00:36.800 --> 00:00:38.800
you can do it by yourself so i'm going

19
00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:40.879
to show you how to do it and the biggest

20
00:00:40.879 --> 00:00:42.079
thing i'm going to let you know the

21
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:44.000
biggest tip i'm going to give you today

22
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:47.920
is basically to change your speech to

23
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:50.000
text and i'm going to show you how to do

24
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.399
that and so we're going to go step by

25
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:55.039
step through the process my name is josh

26
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.360
i'm with tst prep thank you for joining

27
00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:00.160
me let's get right into it how to

28
00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:01.760
practice every day you're going to know

29
00:01:01.760 --> 00:01:04.319
exactly what to do every day by the end

30
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:06.000
of this so you're going to stop being

31
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:07.600
confused and you're going to start

32
00:01:07.600 --> 00:01:09.920
knowing exactly how to practice every

33
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:12.400
day for the toefl speaking and

34
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.720
the best part it'll take less than 15

35
00:01:14.720 --> 00:01:17.040
minutes every day all right let's get

36
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:18.159
into it

37
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:19.119
so

38
00:01:19.119 --> 00:01:21.119
the first step that you need to do is

39
00:01:21.119 --> 00:01:23.759
that you need to identify your weakness

40
00:01:23.759 --> 00:01:26.479
this is crucial now why is this crucial

41
00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:28.319
because

42
00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:30.720
there are if you you need to know what

43
00:01:30.720 --> 00:01:33.119
you have to work on okay so i'm actually

44
00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:35.600
not going to tell you to do uh toefl

45
00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:37.119
speaking test practice you can

46
00:01:37.119 --> 00:01:38.880
definitely do that that is a way to

47
00:01:38.880 --> 00:01:40.959
practice and i encourage it but i'm not

48
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:42.720
going to talk about that here i'm going

49
00:01:42.720 --> 00:01:45.759
to talk about a routine designed to help

50
00:01:45.759 --> 00:01:48.159
you improve and how do you improve well

51
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:49.360
first you got to know what your weak

52
00:01:49.360 --> 00:01:50.720
points are

53
00:01:50.720 --> 00:01:54.399
uh there are three main categories your

54
00:01:54.399 --> 00:01:57.680
structure your vocabulary and grammar or

55
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.880
your speech music so the first one

56
00:02:00.880 --> 00:02:03.840
structure is probably the easiest one to

57
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:04.719
fix

58
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:07.520
because that is just if you have a

59
00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:10.000
template or not basically as long as you

60
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:11.360
know what to say in the beginning in the

61
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:14.480
middle and at the end you should be fine

62
00:02:14.480 --> 00:02:16.160
so that's actually the easiest one to

63
00:02:16.160 --> 00:02:17.760
fix

64
00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:20.639
harder becomes vocabulary and grammar

65
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:22.480
you don't have enough vocabulary the

66
00:02:22.480 --> 00:02:25.200
vocabulary is too simple or your grammar

67
00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:27.440
is too simple and then speech music

68
00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:29.040
pronunciation and that's the hardest

69
00:02:29.040 --> 00:02:31.840
thing to work on

70
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:34.239
if you need to help identifying your

71
00:02:34.239 --> 00:02:36.959
weaknesses i put a list of a bunch of

72
00:02:36.959 --> 00:02:39.919
categories here this is from

73
00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:42.080
ets's

74
00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:44.879
ai this is called speech rater that they

75
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:46.879
use to check your

76
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:49.040
speaking there's a bunch of different

77
00:02:49.040 --> 00:02:51.599
scoring dimensions here there's about

78
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:53.760
12. i'm going to talk about some of them

79
00:02:53.760 --> 00:02:55.040
here

80
00:02:55.040 --> 00:02:57.200
but speech music to go over some of them

81
00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:00.000
here speaking rate is how fast you speak

82
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.959
sustained speech is how much you pause

83
00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:05.360
how much you say uh or um

84
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:08.239
pause frequency same thing repetition is

85
00:03:08.239 --> 00:03:09.840
if you're saying the same word over and

86
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:11.040
over again

87
00:03:11.040 --> 00:03:12.560
response length you want to make sure

88
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:14.879
you speak for the appropriate amount of

89
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:18.560
time 45 seconds or 60 seconds and pauses

90
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:20.720
again this is more about if you pause at

91
00:03:20.720 --> 00:03:22.400
weird times

92
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:24.000
native speakers tend to pause at

93
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:26.159
specific times

94
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:27.519
like that time

95
00:03:27.519 --> 00:03:30.480
uh rhythm is your kind of speech music

96
00:03:30.480 --> 00:03:32.480
and vowels is how you pronounce

97
00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:34.799
vowels okay so

98
00:03:34.799 --> 00:03:37.200
if you need help with knowing your

99
00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:39.440
weaknesses i recommend a site called my

100
00:03:39.440 --> 00:03:41.360
speaking score which can give you an ai

101
00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:44.159
score like this it's in beta right now

102
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:46.640
but i do recommend it or to get a

103
00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:49.599
evaluation at tst prep and we will show

104
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.159
you exactly what you need to do if you

105
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:54.319
go to our site here we have speaking

106
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:56.400
evaluations and let me just show you

107
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:58.720
that uh screen here yeah so if you go to

108
00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:01.200
tst prep we have speaking evaluation

109
00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:04.000
speaking classes again this is a great

110
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.319
way to improve your score but

111
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.560
focusing on weaknesses here if you

112
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:10.000
really need to know your weaknesses get

113
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.239
a speaking evaluation and meet with a

114
00:04:12.239 --> 00:04:14.239
teacher so she can tell you or he can

115
00:04:14.239 --> 00:04:17.839
tell you what you need to do to improve

116
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:20.560
so to go back to this document here

117
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.400
you can visit either my speaking score

118
00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:25.600
or tst prep to get a evaluation on what

119
00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:27.520
your weaknesses are but probably you

120
00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:29.360
have an idea you probably know a little

121
00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:32.320
bit about what your issue is okay and

122
00:04:32.320 --> 00:04:34.479
i'm going to show you what activities to

123
00:04:34.479 --> 00:04:36.960
do to actually improve on them so i'm

124
00:04:36.960 --> 00:04:38.400
going to get to that but this is the

125
00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:41.520
first step is identify your weaknesses

126
00:04:41.520 --> 00:04:44.800
the next step is to set your intention

127
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:48.000
now this is the part that i skip when

128
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.080
i practice japanese

129
00:04:50.080 --> 00:04:51.600
and this is the part that most students

130
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:54.080
skip because it's like setting a goal it

131
00:04:54.080 --> 00:04:56.479
takes a minute but it's just something

132
00:04:56.479 --> 00:04:57.600
that is

133
00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.680
easy to skip because it feels like it's

134
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:02.000
not so helpful you know you feel like oh

135
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:04.160
i'd rather just practice practice is the

136
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:06.639
most helpful thing but really when you

137
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:08.320
set your intention you say what you're

138
00:05:08.320 --> 00:05:11.440
gonna focus on that really helps focus

139
00:05:11.440 --> 00:05:13.360
your mind on what you need to do to

140
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:14.560
improve

141
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:16.400
so i'll give you some examples of

142
00:05:16.400 --> 00:05:19.680
different intentions you can set

143
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:21.680
i will begin my answer to this question

144
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:23.680
with either the phrase in my opinion or

145
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:25.279
that's an interesting question so this

146
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:26.960
is if you're trying to expand your

147
00:05:26.960 --> 00:05:29.839
vocabulary or improve your structure

148
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:33.120
or i will include a personal example so

149
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:34.800
think about a personal example that you

150
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:37.039
want to include

151
00:05:37.039 --> 00:05:39.120
for vocabulary and grammar

152
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:41.440
uh maybe i will avoid using the word

153
00:05:41.440 --> 00:05:43.600
good in my answer i say good way too

154
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.199
much i'm not going to say good this time

155
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.520
let me try to say something else

156
00:05:47.520 --> 00:05:49.680
or i will use two new phrases in my

157
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:52.080
response maybe personally speaking or to

158
00:05:52.080 --> 00:05:53.279
be honest

159
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:56.000
again you can do a lot with this here

160
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:57.759
maybe you want to include a conditional

161
00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:01.279
sentence but really just have one or two

162
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:02.319
goals

163
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:04.880
each time you answer a question that's

164
00:06:04.880 --> 00:06:07.600
it one or two goals each time you answer

165
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:08.800
a question

166
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:10.880
what's going to happen is is that you're

167
00:06:10.880 --> 00:06:13.520
going to notice that there are a lot of

168
00:06:13.520 --> 00:06:15.759
things that you feel like you need to

169
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:17.839
improve and it's going to be tough

170
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:19.600
because there's just so many things that

171
00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:21.279
you want to do better

172
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:25.039
and so what i suggest is that you focus

173
00:06:25.039 --> 00:06:28.240
on just a couple of things one or two

174
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:30.560
things that you want to do better and

175
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:33.360
focus on that okay let me get back to

176
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:35.919
the uh little presentation here

177
00:06:35.919 --> 00:06:36.800
okay

178
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:38.240
so

179
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:40.160
uh so you're gonna use a phrase like

180
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:41.199
that

181
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:44.639
and then speech music and pronunciation

182
00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:46.800
may be something like

183
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:49.839
i will pick two words with the th sound

184
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:52.639
the th sound i have trouble with that

185
00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:55.759
and i will include words like think or

186
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:57.360
tooth

187
00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:59.360
maybe you don't have to do that tooth of

188
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:00.800
course you don't have to say but you'll

189
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:02.800
definitely have to say the word think

190
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:04.960
so it's a good idea to practice that if

191
00:07:04.960 --> 00:07:07.440
you're having trouble with th

192
00:07:07.440 --> 00:07:09.520
or maybe you're gonna try to link words

193
00:07:09.520 --> 00:07:12.160
together in a phrase so you you speak

194
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:16.240
too slow you say each word in my opinion

195
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:18.160
you don't link them together like in my

196
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.080
opinion in my opinion

197
00:07:20.080 --> 00:07:23.520
so that's a good goal to set if your

198
00:07:23.520 --> 00:07:26.240
speaking is a bit slow a couple phrases

199
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:28.880
you want to try to link together

200
00:07:28.880 --> 00:07:31.199
okay so

201
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:33.360
that's the second step

202
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:36.080
by the way all this so far all you're

203
00:07:36.080 --> 00:07:38.960
doing is setting your intention so you

204
00:07:38.960 --> 00:07:40.639
identify your weakness you do that when

205
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:42.080
you start studying

206
00:07:42.080 --> 00:07:43.680
every day first thing you do is set your

207
00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:45.440
intention that's the first thing you do

208
00:07:45.440 --> 00:07:48.000
what i want to accomplish today

209
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.400
the second thing you do every day is

210
00:07:50.400 --> 00:07:52.479
record and transcribe your response this

211
00:07:52.479 --> 00:07:54.560
will take about five minutes

212
00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:55.440
so

213
00:07:55.440 --> 00:07:58.560
use the questions in this video uh it's

214
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:00.800
it looks like this here there's 10

215
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:03.440
sample questions and answers here

216
00:08:03.440 --> 00:08:06.319
and or you could also visit tst prep's

217
00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:09.039
uh speaking practice page

218
00:08:09.039 --> 00:08:11.199
which i will just show really quickly

219
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:12.800
here

220
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:14.879
this is the speaking evaluation page but

221
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:18.000
if you go on the top here where it says

222
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:19.680
donate essentially practice your

223
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:22.000
speaking if you look here there are

224
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:24.400
practice questions five for each

225
00:08:24.400 --> 00:08:26.400
question type so definitely visit this

226
00:08:26.400 --> 00:08:28.960
site and you can listen to other sample

227
00:08:28.960 --> 00:08:31.120
responses from other students as well

228
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:33.599
here it's a pretty helpful resource i'll

229
00:08:33.599 --> 00:08:37.039
link to it in the description below

230
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:40.240
but to go back to what i was saying here

231
00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:41.599
you want to use one of those questions

232
00:08:41.599 --> 00:08:43.599
now why one of those questions i'll get

233
00:08:43.599 --> 00:08:45.920
to that in a second but first

234
00:08:45.920 --> 00:08:48.958
you want to record and transcribe your

235
00:08:48.958 --> 00:08:50.480
response

236
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.640
means you listen back to your response

237
00:08:52.640 --> 00:08:54.958
and you type out what you heard a very

238
00:08:54.958 --> 00:08:56.720
painful experience

239
00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:59.040
okay so why is that

240
00:08:59.040 --> 00:09:02.559
your goal is to turn speech into text

241
00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:05.040
text is easier to analyze

242
00:09:05.040 --> 00:09:07.279
recording your voice and transcribing it

243
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.279
gives you the power to analyze your

244
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.600
speech the same way you would analyze a

245
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:13.279
piece of text

246
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.240
so in other words uh this is i believe i

247
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:19.360
put a transcription here uh no i didn't

248
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:21.040
but anyway so

249
00:09:21.040 --> 00:09:24.320
there if you transcribe your response

250
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:28.240
and you have your response written out

251
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:30.640
what you can do okay let me hold on i

252
00:09:30.640 --> 00:09:32.720
want to show you a a transcription let

253
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:33.760
me pause this and let me show you a

254
00:09:33.760 --> 00:09:35.360
transcription hold on one second hold on

255
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:36.480
hold on

256
00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:37.920
all right i'm back so

257
00:09:37.920 --> 00:09:39.760
yeah you can see a response here like

258
00:09:39.760 --> 00:09:42.880
this i transcribed my recording so it's

259
00:09:42.880 --> 00:09:45.040
about a paragraph long probably about

260
00:09:45.040 --> 00:09:48.320
150 words uh and so you want to take a

261
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:51.120
couple minutes to do that this is much

262
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:53.279
easier to analyze

263
00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:56.160
than just a recording that you listen to

264
00:09:56.160 --> 00:09:57.279
okay so

265
00:09:57.279 --> 00:09:58.800
that's why

266
00:09:58.800 --> 00:10:01.040
taking your speech and putting it on

267
00:10:01.040 --> 00:10:04.078
text is really really really helpful you

268
00:10:04.078 --> 00:10:07.120
might not like what you hear but you can

269
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:09.519
check your speaking on a deeper level

270
00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:10.880
okay and i'm going to show you some

271
00:10:10.880 --> 00:10:12.240
things to do so i'm not going to just

272
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.880
say transcribe and that's it you can do

273
00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:16.800
do even more with that i'm going to be

274
00:10:16.800 --> 00:10:19.760
very specific with what you can do okay

275
00:10:19.760 --> 00:10:22.078
so you can do a lot with a transcription

276
00:10:22.078 --> 00:10:24.800
like this but let me get back to uh what

277
00:10:24.800 --> 00:10:27.200
i was saying here where you should

278
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:29.920
practice a speaking response

279
00:10:29.920 --> 00:10:32.958
let me find my uh my document here here

280
00:10:32.958 --> 00:10:35.200
we go so

281
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:36.880
and so you want to record your voice and

282
00:10:36.880 --> 00:10:38.480
then you want to write a transcript for

283
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:39.440
it

284
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.679
so i'm going to imagine that you have a

285
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:43.600
question like this this is one of the

286
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:45.600
first questions in this video

287
00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:46.880
and

288
00:10:46.880 --> 00:10:49.040
record your voice and record it

289
00:10:49.040 --> 00:10:51.360
naturally don't do this

290
00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:53.839
don't do this don't don't be like uh

291
00:10:53.839 --> 00:10:55.360
okay so

292
00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:57.920
uh children and teenagers should

293
00:10:57.920 --> 00:10:59.040
uh

294
00:10:59.040 --> 00:11:00.160
let's see should not be allowed to use

295
00:11:00.160 --> 00:11:02.800
any specimen uh i disagree children

296
00:11:02.800 --> 00:11:04.399
should be able to use wait i messed up

297
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:06.640
let me do that again

298
00:11:06.640 --> 00:11:09.120
okay so wait no i messed up do it again

299
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:11.440
you want to try to do it as naturally as

300
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:13.519
possible you don't want to type it out

301
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.000
first you want it to be the way that

302
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:18.399
it'll be experienced on the test your

303
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:21.679
natural voice your natural speaking okay

304
00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:24.800
try not to re-record a bunch of times

305
00:11:24.800 --> 00:11:26.320
you could do it maybe once like i did it

306
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:28.399
once here so it's okay but that's the

307
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:30.320
most you want to do you really want to

308
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.360
try to make it as natural as possible as

309
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:36.399
much like the test as possible

310
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:37.600
okay so

311
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:38.559
uh

312
00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:40.640
so and the other thing is that you want

313
00:11:40.640 --> 00:11:43.440
to have a

314
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:45.839
a other the reason why i encourage you

315
00:11:45.839 --> 00:11:49.040
to use our speaking questions is because

316
00:11:49.040 --> 00:11:51.440
we have sample answers and you can

317
00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:54.078
listen to a sample answer and compare it

318
00:11:54.078 --> 00:11:56.480
here's the transcript i was looking for

319
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:59.200
so you can listen to my response

320
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:01.279
or another teacher's response or another

321
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.399
person's response see the transcript and

322
00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:08.480
compare your speaking to ours

323
00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:09.440
okay

324
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.360
so here's what some of the things you

325
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:12.639
can do

326
00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:14.240
and here are some of the problems by the

327
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:16.639
way when you're speaking alone in a room

328
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.160
is that you're thinking like is this

329
00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:20.399
what a native speaker would say it would

330
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:22.720
my teacher think this is okay

331
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:24.559
is there some part of my pronunciation

332
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:26.880
that sounds strange you know my ears are

333
00:12:26.880 --> 00:12:28.480
different than a than a native speaker

334
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:30.720
is there something that i can't hear

335
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:31.519
right

336
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.440
or would a native speaker use this

337
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.040
phrase is this a weird phrase you know

338
00:12:35.040 --> 00:12:36.800
is this something a native speaker would

339
00:12:36.800 --> 00:12:38.480
say i don't know you know and that's why

340
00:12:38.480 --> 00:12:40.800
we you usually need a teacher right

341
00:12:40.800 --> 00:12:42.160
teachers are great i'm going to

342
00:12:42.160 --> 00:12:44.720
recommend them constantly at cst prep

343
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:48.320
but you can do this by comparing your

344
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:50.800
answer to a native speaker's answer okay

345
00:12:50.800 --> 00:12:53.200
so that's one way to get around that to

346
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:55.040
get around the idea of like i don't know

347
00:12:55.040 --> 00:12:57.440
if this is natural well compare it to a

348
00:12:57.440 --> 00:12:59.920
teacher their perfect response my

349
00:12:59.920 --> 00:13:02.559
perfect response here right

350
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:04.880
now there are a few options a few things

351
00:13:04.880 --> 00:13:07.519
you can do here

352
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:09.839
you can add one or two sentences

353
00:13:09.839 --> 00:13:11.279
somewhere in your own response and

354
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:13.760
repeat it again so you see my response

355
00:13:13.760 --> 00:13:15.679
here and you think oh this sounds good i

356
00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:16.399
like

357
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:18.958
the flow i like this phrase i want to

358
00:13:18.958 --> 00:13:21.600
say this okay so

359
00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:24.000
take your take two sentences from here

360
00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:25.920
and put it in your transcript and read

361
00:13:25.920 --> 00:13:28.958
it aloud okay and add that and maybe

362
00:13:28.958 --> 00:13:31.279
think about next time there's a couple

363
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:33.519
of phrases that you want to use in your

364
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:35.200
own response

365
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:37.120
so that's one thing you can do add a

366
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.199
couple sentences a couple phrases that

367
00:13:39.199 --> 00:13:41.839
you like from my own

368
00:13:41.839 --> 00:13:44.399
the second thing you can do is read each

369
00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.078
sentence aloud

370
00:13:46.078 --> 00:13:48.639
so this is not shadowing this is read

371
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:50.720
aloud this is different so let me show

372
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:52.399
you how it would work

373
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:56.000
you would read this without listening

374
00:13:56.000 --> 00:13:57.920
well you know this is an interesting

375
00:13:57.920 --> 00:13:59.600
question because i think social media

376
00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:02.559
has both positive and negative effects

377
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:04.639
and then you listen to

378
00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:06.880
the recording what i said or what

379
00:14:06.880 --> 00:14:09.199
somebody else a teacher said

380
00:14:09.199 --> 00:14:11.839
and then you hear if what you said

381
00:14:11.839 --> 00:14:13.199
was the same

382
00:14:13.199 --> 00:14:15.760
music you had the same pauses you had

383
00:14:15.760 --> 00:14:18.078
the same intonation you had the same

384
00:14:18.078 --> 00:14:19.199
stress

385
00:14:19.199 --> 00:14:20.880
you don't want to try to think of all of

386
00:14:20.880 --> 00:14:24.079
that pick one or two things i'm going to

387
00:14:24.079 --> 00:14:25.920
keep saying this over and over again one

388
00:14:25.920 --> 00:14:29.279
or two things pick one or two things

389
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:31.440
that you wanna focus on for example

390
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:33.199
syllable stress you wanna say okay i'm

391
00:14:33.199 --> 00:14:35.199
gonna listen for the stress for the word

392
00:14:35.199 --> 00:14:37.600
interesting and i wanna see if the way i

393
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:39.760
say it is the same as the person

394
00:14:39.760 --> 00:14:40.800
speaking

395
00:14:40.800 --> 00:14:43.199
interesting interesting

396
00:14:43.199 --> 00:14:46.000
okay so just have one thing to focus on

397
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.480
very small

398
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:50.079
another thing you can do is if if you

399
00:14:50.079 --> 00:14:52.720
struggle with vocabulary is replace 10

400
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.839
words so either in your own transcript

401
00:14:55.839 --> 00:14:58.560
or in my own transcript here think of

402
00:14:58.560 --> 00:15:00.800
some synonyms that you could say instead

403
00:15:00.800 --> 00:15:02.079
of let's say

404
00:15:02.079 --> 00:15:04.959
my family instead of my family you could

405
00:15:04.959 --> 00:15:06.399
say uh

406
00:15:06.399 --> 00:15:10.160
the people close to me or my loved ones

407
00:15:10.160 --> 00:15:12.880
something like that right uh hard for a

408
00:15:12.880 --> 00:15:15.440
synonym for your family but uh that's an

409
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.240
example so you want to try to find

410
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.720
ways of expanding your vocabulary maybe

411
00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:23.360
just five words that you want to replace

412
00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:25.120
and then say it again

413
00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:26.800
and this is going to help expand your

414
00:15:26.800 --> 00:15:28.320
vocabulary

415
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:29.839
and then tomorrow

416
00:15:29.839 --> 00:15:32.000
your intention can be

417
00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:34.480
i want to try to use three of the words

418
00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:37.040
i used yesterday when i replace those

419
00:15:37.040 --> 00:15:38.800
words okay

420
00:15:38.800 --> 00:15:40.720
so that's the way that you can expand

421
00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:42.639
your vocabulary on your own if you

422
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:44.639
struggle with vocabulary

423
00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:46.880
maybe you can replace two sentences

424
00:15:46.880 --> 00:15:49.680
instead of ten words or five words you

425
00:15:49.680 --> 00:15:51.440
can do two sentences

426
00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:54.720
you can say something like uh okay i use

427
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:57.040
the simple present too much in my

428
00:15:57.040 --> 00:15:58.399
response

429
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:01.040
now i want to use present perfect i'm

430
00:16:01.040 --> 00:16:02.560
going to rewrite the sentence and then

431
00:16:02.560 --> 00:16:04.320
do it again see how

432
00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:07.040
writing everything out having this as

433
00:16:07.040 --> 00:16:10.000
text that you can actually read is so

434
00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:12.399
much more powerful than if you're just

435
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:16.079
speaking okay speaking comes and goes

436
00:16:16.079 --> 00:16:18.480
recording is a good way to try to catch

437
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:20.000
the speaking

438
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:23.279
but typing it out gives you the power to

439
00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:25.440
kind of play with the language and

440
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:26.880
that's why i like topo speaking

441
00:16:26.880 --> 00:16:28.160
questions because they're one minute

442
00:16:28.160 --> 00:16:30.959
long it's like the perfect length it's

443
00:16:30.959 --> 00:16:33.839
it's not too boring to transcribe you

444
00:16:33.839 --> 00:16:35.920
know and so you can really go deep in a

445
00:16:35.920 --> 00:16:38.079
one-minute response for about 15 minutes

446
00:16:38.079 --> 00:16:39.120
a day

447
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:40.880
you can see the vocabulary you want to

448
00:16:40.880 --> 00:16:42.720
change you can see the grammar that

449
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:44.720
could be a bit better you can see the

450
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:46.560
words that your pronunciation is a bit

451
00:16:46.560 --> 00:16:47.519
off

452
00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:50.480
and then when you have a native speaker

453
00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:52.880
or like myself or another teacher's

454
00:16:52.880 --> 00:16:55.360
sample responses to compare

455
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:57.519
you can see okay what sounds natural

456
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:00.079
what doesn't sound natural so it's a

457
00:17:00.079 --> 00:17:02.800
really effective tool to help you

458
00:17:02.800 --> 00:17:05.119
improve every day okay

459
00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:05.919
so

460
00:17:05.919 --> 00:17:07.919
let me get sorry i'm excited let me get

461
00:17:07.919 --> 00:17:10.959
back to this here um

462
00:17:10.959 --> 00:17:12.480
so

463
00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:15.679
i'm in the wrong place okay

464
00:17:16.559 --> 00:17:18.000
the last thing i'm going to recommend is

465
00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:19.359
shadow and i'm going to go deep into

466
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:21.439
shadow right now because this is when

467
00:17:21.439 --> 00:17:23.760
you have trouble with speech music and

468
00:17:23.760 --> 00:17:26.799
pronunciation that hardest part okay so

469
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:29.359
when you have trouble with speaking rate

470
00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:32.720
you're speaking too slow too many pauses

471
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:33.919
uh you

472
00:17:33.919 --> 00:17:35.760
you don't have the right type of speech

473
00:17:35.760 --> 00:17:36.799
music

474
00:17:36.799 --> 00:17:38.559
or you don't have the right

475
00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:40.880
pronunciation of certain vowels okay so

476
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:42.960
we're gonna shadow

477
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:44.640
with purpose now let me just show you

478
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:47.359
what shadowing is really quickly uh

479
00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:50.080
shadowing is when you

480
00:17:50.080 --> 00:17:52.400
basically listen and repeat

481
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:54.320
you don't listen and repeat to a really

482
00:17:54.320 --> 00:17:56.799
long uh you don't have to listen i would

483
00:17:56.799 --> 00:17:59.039
go sentence by sentence or pause by

484
00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:01.919
pause i usually go pause by pause when

485
00:18:01.919 --> 00:18:05.600
i'm doing this for my own studies

486
00:18:05.600 --> 00:18:07.520
well you know this is an interesting

487
00:18:07.520 --> 00:18:09.359
question pause

488
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:10.880
well you know this is an interesting

489
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:12.400
question and i'll try to say it the same

490
00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:14.160
way

491
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:15.840
because i think social media has both

492
00:18:15.840 --> 00:18:17.840
positive and negative effects because i

493
00:18:17.840 --> 00:18:19.359
think social media has both positive and

494
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:21.760
negative effects now maybe that's hard

495
00:18:21.760 --> 00:18:23.119
to shadow

496
00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:25.359
maybe you can't say all that in one

497
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:26.240
breath

498
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:29.039
right that's totally fine

499
00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:30.880
shadowing is just kind of

500
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:33.440
building your awareness

501
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:36.080
of how a native speaker or somebody

502
00:18:36.080 --> 00:18:40.000
who's very fluent in english would speak

503
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:42.480
the goal is not for you to sound perfect

504
00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:45.280
it's just to build your awareness

505
00:18:45.280 --> 00:18:47.359
and if you keep building your awareness

506
00:18:47.359 --> 00:18:49.119
over time

507
00:18:49.119 --> 00:18:50.960
you're going to improve

508
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:52.880
that's it you just will you'll

509
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:54.799
understand okay i can't say it the same

510
00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:57.119
way what am i doing wrong

511
00:18:57.119 --> 00:18:59.119
how do i have to change my mouth and my

512
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:00.080
physical

513
00:19:00.080 --> 00:19:00.960
uh

514
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:03.600
my body to be able to say things this

515
00:19:03.600 --> 00:19:06.640
way right and you'll be able to start

516
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:09.200
asking the right questions instead of

517
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:11.600
saying like i can't say the th sound

518
00:19:11.600 --> 00:19:13.600
what am i supposed to do you google it

519
00:19:13.600 --> 00:19:15.679
you see some videos of somebody's tongue

520
00:19:15.679 --> 00:19:16.960
and mouth and

521
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:18.480
you know and all that kind of stuff and

522
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:21.039
you're like wow okay so now i get it and

523
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:23.119
you still can't produce it

524
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:25.440
so we want to build an awareness

525
00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:26.799
and by building an awareness you're

526
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:28.880
thinking about it every day and that

527
00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:30.400
helps you improve

528
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:32.320
don't have to be perfect don't worry

529
00:19:32.320 --> 00:19:34.559
about being perfect you're just

530
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:36.320
getting used to it

531
00:19:36.320 --> 00:19:37.600
all right

532
00:19:37.600 --> 00:19:39.039
so uh

533
00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:42.080
shadowing with purpose

534
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:44.799
here are a couple things you can do

535
00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:47.840
based on what your weaknesses so

536
00:19:47.840 --> 00:19:49.840
a lot of these weaknesses these grading

537
00:19:49.840 --> 00:19:52.640
criteria are very similar speaking rate

538
00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:54.960
sustained speech pause frequency

539
00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:56.880
distribution of pauses and response

540
00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.520
length this all has to do with how much

541
00:19:59.520 --> 00:20:02.320
you say and how much you pause that's

542
00:20:02.320 --> 00:20:03.840
pretty much it

543
00:20:03.840 --> 00:20:05.200
and so

544
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:06.960
it's connected to your ability to link

545
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:09.520
words together and speak in one breath

546
00:20:09.520 --> 00:20:11.359
alright so you want to work on trying to

547
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:13.039
speak and breathe at the same time as

548
00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:15.200
the speaker so that's what you focus on

549
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:17.119
you want to speak and breathe at the

550
00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:19.600
same time you want to listen for pauses

551
00:20:19.600 --> 00:20:22.159
and try to pause at the same time

552
00:20:22.159 --> 00:20:24.159
that's your focus

553
00:20:24.159 --> 00:20:26.240
you don't want to focus on intonation

554
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:28.960
syllable stress no just pausing at the

555
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:30.159
same time

556
00:20:30.159 --> 00:20:33.280
one goal focus on it

557
00:20:33.280 --> 00:20:35.520
uh try a couple times before moving go

558
00:20:35.520 --> 00:20:37.520
on your goal is not to be perfect yeah

559
00:20:37.520 --> 00:20:38.960
i'm just gonna say this over and over

560
00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:41.359
again your goal is not to be perfect i

561
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:43.200
have students that i ask them to do

562
00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:44.799
things like this and they say look i'm

563
00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:47.119
not you i can't speak like you and i

564
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:48.960
don't want you to speak like me i want

565
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:50.720
you to just improve your speaking

566
00:20:50.720 --> 00:20:53.440
improve your intelligibility which means

567
00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:56.080
that people are able to understand you

568
00:20:56.080 --> 00:20:58.240
and it and over time you won't sound

569
00:20:58.240 --> 00:21:00.640
like me you'll sound like yourself

570
00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:02.640
that people understand who people

571
00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:04.799
understand so that's the crucial thing

572
00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:07.679
we just want to be understood and you're

573
00:21:07.679 --> 00:21:08.799
not going to be

574
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:10.480
the same exact you're not going to speak

575
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:12.880
exactly the same as me but you will

576
00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:16.640
improve your awareness over time

577
00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:19.280
repetitions if you repeat the same word

578
00:21:19.280 --> 00:21:22.080
okay it's it shows a lack of vocabulary

579
00:21:22.080 --> 00:21:24.159
or confidence

580
00:21:24.159 --> 00:21:26.080
when you shadow identify one word or

581
00:21:26.080 --> 00:21:28.480
phrase that is a synonym that you repeat

582
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:30.559
often okay so

583
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:32.640
you want to find words phrases

584
00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:34.480
expressions to help you expand your

585
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:37.760
vocabulary this is like that uh 10 words

586
00:21:37.760 --> 00:21:41.520
activity that i showed you before right

587
00:21:41.520 --> 00:21:44.799
rhythm so this is about a lot of this

588
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:47.039
has to do with syllable stress where you

589
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:49.200
put the stress interesting

590
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:52.480
interesting interesting interesting

591
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:54.720
interesting no no

592
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:56.400
interesting no

593
00:21:56.400 --> 00:21:57.440
interesting

594
00:21:57.440 --> 00:21:59.440
no interesting

595
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:00.799
interesting

596
00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:02.080
interesting

597
00:22:02.080 --> 00:22:03.679
interesting

598
00:22:03.679 --> 00:22:05.600
you have to have the right stress in the

599
00:22:05.600 --> 00:22:08.080
right place so you want to try to listen

600
00:22:08.080 --> 00:22:10.000
for stress if you're having trouble with

601
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:11.039
that

602
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:13.840
especially words that are longer two or

603
00:22:13.840 --> 00:22:15.760
more syllables

604
00:22:15.760 --> 00:22:16.880
all right

605
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:18.640
and

606
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:20.240
what i said here do not worry about your

607
00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:22.240
pronunciation and speed right now and

608
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:24.720
just focus instead on stressing so when

609
00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:27.760
you focus on one part of your speech

610
00:22:27.760 --> 00:22:29.520
the other parts of your speech are gonna

611
00:22:29.520 --> 00:22:32.080
start going down right your focus on

612
00:22:32.080 --> 00:22:34.000
syllable stress you start speaking

613
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:36.640
slower you start focusing on speed your

614
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:39.359
pronunciation gets hurt okay that's

615
00:22:39.359 --> 00:22:42.240
natural just focus on doing the one

616
00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:43.760
thing that you're trying to accomplish

617
00:22:43.760 --> 00:22:45.600
right now that's the most important

618
00:22:45.600 --> 00:22:46.799
thing

619
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.000
all right

620
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:49.840
valves vowels are a little bit tricky

621
00:22:49.840 --> 00:22:52.080
you're going to have to find out which

622
00:22:52.080 --> 00:22:54.559
vowel sounds are hard for you

623
00:22:54.559 --> 00:22:56.960
a lot of it depends on your nationality

624
00:22:56.960 --> 00:22:59.520
and your first language so this is where

625
00:22:59.520 --> 00:23:04.000
i would recommend getting a teacher or

626
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:07.119
or a ai score so you can see what vowels

627
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:09.520
might be a bit of trouble for you

628
00:23:09.520 --> 00:23:12.320
find words with those vowels it's really

629
00:23:12.320 --> 00:23:14.720
simple all you do is type into google

630
00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:16.720
words with the vowel sound and then you

631
00:23:16.720 --> 00:23:19.520
say that the sound and you try to

632
00:23:19.520 --> 00:23:21.359
practice those words and build them up

633
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:22.640
over time

634
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:25.039
notice them when you're speaking try to

635
00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:26.799
include them in your speech if you want

636
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:29.520
or just avoid them okay

637
00:23:29.520 --> 00:23:31.679
one thing for example some people really

638
00:23:31.679 --> 00:23:35.039
have trouble with the th sound

639
00:23:35.039 --> 00:23:37.039
and so if a student really struggles

640
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:39.039
with it i say okay try not to say words

641
00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:41.520
with the for toefl speaking try to say i

642
00:23:41.520 --> 00:23:44.000
believe or i feel right so you can do

643
00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:46.320
that as well so find ways to improve

644
00:23:46.320 --> 00:23:48.159
your vowel sounds but for toefl you can

645
00:23:48.159 --> 00:23:49.840
try to just avoid the sound altogether

646
00:23:49.840 --> 00:23:52.080
if you really want

647
00:23:52.080 --> 00:23:55.840
and i think that's it yeah so as always

648
00:23:55.840 --> 00:23:57.760
an experienced teacher is the best bet

649
00:23:57.760 --> 00:24:00.080
