Hello everyone! Many students asked me how I learned English.

哈囉大家好，很多學生會問我以前怎麼學英文的？

頻率副詞

I never paid attention in English classes in high school.

我讀高中時，從來沒有認真上過英文課。

I love my high school teachers. They were amazing!

我很喜歡我的高中老師，他們很好！

The thing is, I hated textbooks so much. They were so boring!

重點是，我很討厭教科書，因為內容太無聊了！

So I read lots of novels. I watched TV series, especially those TV shows.

所以我閱讀了很多小說、看了很多影集，尤其是電視劇。

I loved them. I spent time on it EVERY SINGLE DAY.

我超愛它們。每天花了很多時間在做這些事情。

Most importantly, I was a little bit dramatic while I was watching the shows.

最重要的是，在看這些電視影集或小說時，我會有點「激動」。

When it comes to learning English,  there's an annoying myth.

當我們談到學習英文，會有個惱人的迷思。

I can't speak English fluently because I have a limited vocabulary.

我不能流利地說英文，因為我會的英文詞彙不多。

Remember how you learned your mother tongue?

還記得你是如何學習你的母語嗎？

Let's say the first day you learned the word "apple."

我們來談談你第一天學到「蘋果」這個詞。

Your mom and daddy introduced apple to you.

他們不斷地覆誦蘋果、蘋果、蘋果。

And you were like what on earth is apple?

而你一臉茫然地想著：「到底什麼是蘋果？」

Then you found, hmm... it smells so good. It's tasty!

之後你就發現，嗯... 這聞起來好香、很美味！

你開心的大喊：蘋果！好好吃！

They even posted a video of you trying apples on Facebook.

甚至把你試吃蘋果的影片上傳到 Facebook。

所以你如何學會「蘋果」這個詞的？

It's a connection between the word and all the vivid memories.

這就是詞彙與生動記憶之間的連結。

Including your parents' smiley faces, the taste of the apple, and you will never forget.

其中包含你父母開心的臉，以及蘋果嚐起來的滋味，這使你永遠不會忘記。

To put it another way, you have to feel the language when you learn it.

換一種方式來說，當你學習語言時，你必須去「感受」語言。

It's like when we live in a foreign country, we soon pick up the language.

就像是我們住在國外時，很快就能學會當地語言一樣。

so I don't have an all-English environment.

所以我不能擁有全英文的環境。

其實你可以自己創造一個全英文的環境。

First, don't think that you have to learn general English that you can use in all kinds of situations in like three weeks or three months.

第一，不要只想花3 個禮拜或 3 個月就要學完所有可以套用在各種情況之中的英文。

So you have to break it into small and actionable steps.

你必須把學習變成好幾個小而可行的步驟。

For example, if you are a foodie, start with food, find interesting videos online about your favorite food,

例如，如果你是個吃貨， 就從食物開始，在網路上找一些你喜歡的美食影片，

pick up those words and use it immediately.

把影片中的詞彙學習起來並且馬上使用。

By doing so,  you won't feel stressed out.

Because you only need a certain amount of vocabulary to describe the items you like.

因為你僅需要有一部份的詞彙去形容你喜歡的東西。

That also means, you will be willing to practice on a daily basis.

這也代表，你會很願意每天都做練習。

I know you've heard that! But, did you do it right?

我知道你們一定都有聽過，但是！你有做對嗎？

It's for us to have the connections between the situation in the TV shows  and the spoken English.

這會讓我們的英文口說對電視劇產生關聯。

When you shadow, you not only learn what you're saying, you also have to pretend that you are the actor or actress in the TV shows.

當你在跟讀的時候，不只是學到你所念出來的字句，還必須要假裝自己是電視劇裡的演員。

That's what I did when I was in high school.

這就是我在高中時所做的事情 (戲劇化的跟讀)。

For example, when the actor shouted "I can't believe it."

舉例來說， 當演員大喊「我不敢置信！ 」

我會跟著大喊「我！不！敢！置！信！ 」

Why dramatic shadowing can help you learn English effectively?

為何戲劇化跟讀可以幫助你有效地學習英文呢？

因為你腦海中會浮現生動活潑的記憶。

Just like the first time you tried apples, and learned the word "apple".

就像你第一次嚐到蘋果的滋味跟學到蘋果這個詞彙。

So, let's learn English together and have fun!
