so thank you for joining me today we’ve
got a special guest I’d like to
introduce this is Dan hi everybody I
thought this is Dan my husband and he is
part of the fearless fluency Club he’s
helping you to understand more
vocabulary
and what do you think is a good reason
why
why are you part of the course well I’m
here to help Vanessa with vocabulary so
expanding upon vocabulary so sometimes
it’s good to talk with two people at one
time and get a different perspective a
different voice here a different view on
the thoris yeah unlike the the
vocabulary guru guru oh that’s a great
word yeah I’m here for moral support
moral support Thanks I think it’s really
useful for you guys to hear it’s great
to hear my voice but it’s really special
to hear
Dan’s perspective because it’s like you
said another voice another point of view
and also I think it’s good to hear
different kinds of stories that and what
I might say I got stories yeah so can
you kind of tell me what is a vocabulary
video like mmm
look in the fearless fluency Club
because you’re heard of it yeah so
basically for the vocabulary videos
we’ll watch a video together and then
we’ll stop the video and look at a a
specific word and then we’ll break down
that word or phrase and then we’ll we’ll
show you the video again and then you
can learn from two perspectives about
the video yeah yeah so we’re gonna Sh
each month there is a conversation video
and we’ll choose I’ll probably be the
one choosing some vocabulary words and
then Dan and I will talk about those and
give more examples and stories and Dan
will probably say something funny like
usual I’m not funny so this is a chance
for you to hear two people and I want to
know from you all hi Regina welcome
welcome Osama I wouldn’t know can you
understand Dan so you just heard him
talk a little bit how do you feel about
his voice how do you feel about his
voice and you can listen a little bit
more as he answers ah it smiles question
Israel asks what is your job Dan
what I’d tell a little bit about it what
is my job yes so right now I am a
barista which means I make coffee and
specifically I work at a chocolate
lounge
oh my chocolate lounge is like a cafe
but you rank chocolate there so there’s
chocolate and coffee and then there’s
cakes and pastries stuff like that so
I’m making a lot of food and drink for
people and serving them and I’m also
working on my own business on the side
which is wheelies a coffee cart so you
can check that out later yourself to
just search wheelies on Google yeah
later we’ll have more information about
Dan’s own business but at the moment you
work at a chocolate coffee place and I
think that it’s so pretty
yummy job very good I eat too much
chocolate I think
yeah well that’s sometimes a bad thing
but not always so I think this is a
really good chance for you guys to hear
Dan’s voice and to practice listening to
to people because you probably already
understand me 70% 100% but when you
watch a TV show not everyone’s gonna
sound like my voice so I want to help
you understand other people understand
and understand people who talk even
faster than that so I want to help you
really feel comfortable understanding
English and this is a good step so one
speaker is the first step watching my
videos great second step watching videos
my Jam’s yes it sounds like people like
my voice so far so far so good voice yes
great I’m glad you like it
congratulations and the next step is
introducing another speaker who is
having a really casual conversation and
in the fearless fluency Club I will be
interviewing and having a conversation
with one of our friends one of our
family members someone we know
and that’s going to be the next
challenge so that’s going to be the next
step
yes to help you understand TV shows and
movies and then finally you can watch TV
shows movies completely natural
materials so I wanted to help you step
by step by step - thank you for joining
Lyn and Claudio and hello wonderful Oh
Regina yes I’m glad that you all are
here I want to know do you watch TV
shows do you watch English movies or TV
shows without your native language
subtitles without your native language
subtitles I’m curious and I did can you
tell us whether so what are some good
movies or TV shows that you would
recommend for learning English
Oh for anything just something that you
think is entertaining hmm
well unfortunately I don’t white a lot
of movies we don’t watch me movies but
oh we watch a lot of human Aires yes
I watch cartoons cartoons are not good
to learn English with well there’s some
I’m sure live you know The Simpsons
that’s an international show that’s a
cartoon I recommend a movie you’ve seen
before and then watching it in English
oh that’s good advice like Titanic
I bet everybody’s seen Titanic right so
watching Titanic is your advice if
you’ve already seen it and then watch it
only in English then the conversations
are probably pretty simple that’s good
advice
excellent oh great so nan says yes I do
movies but maybe I don’t understand all
of it I understand most of it great this
is a good point just starting and trying
to understand as much as you can and
loose I hope I said that rectly maybe Lu
says yes I do watch TV shows movies
great great zoo so what I am trying to
help you with today and what Dan is also
trying to help you with today
Thanks is to get you to the next level
to try to help you completely understand
native speakers because maybe at your
job maybe you need to talk on the phone
and in English at that point you really
need to our stand any voice any accent
anything like that or maybe if you talk
with tourists or if you go to Canada or
if you go to the US or Australia you’re
going to need to understand people
because if someone asks you a question
really fast and you’ll get it even if
you know how to speak you won’t know
what to say so a great way to start is
with one speaker listening to my videos
and the next level is with two native
speakers together dad yeah and in the
fearless fluency Club each month you’re
gonna get a vocabulary video we both of
us and there are about 20 new words each
month and this takes us how column are
about a videos like 33 minutes yeah
probably about 30 minutes I’d say
average sure so you get about 30 40
minutes of vocabulary explanations and
conversation between us so it’s not just
this is the vocabulary word this is the
definition this is a simple sentence
we’re talking about stories and ideas
and asking questions together about
vocabulary will never be boring yes so
I’ve heard a lot is exciting I’ve heard
a lot of you say that so far that those
of you who have already joined throws
fluency Club users have no soul for Dan
yes so a lot of you have already said
that the vocabulary video is not boring
because there’s two people and dance
entertaining so that’s a good point you
want to make sure that you’re having a
good time while you’re learning English

haughtiness and Dan I can finally see
you
yes yes Tom this is the correct spelling
TI ck ing ticking teen yes so as
you saw from Dan’s quick explanation
about ticking this is how the
conversation vocabulary video goes we
have a word time is ticking for example
and I give a little explanation it’s a
little more organized than this this is
spontaneous and then Dan gives an
explanation he has some nice gestures
and you can really remember those words
when it’s shown with two people and
stories and conversations and Osama says
some good points too he says that
watching these things is entertaining
and it’s good fuel for English yes this
is a great way to really start your
English journey because the purpose is
to completely feel comfortable speaking
listening writing reading I want this
for you and I think this is a really
great path if you feel like so many inch
materials online Wow where do I start
the peerless fluency Club is a good
place to start don’t do agree
I guess definitely so this is gonna be
organized
you’re gonna have contact with both of
us and you’re gonna have a chance just
to salesman you’re gonna have a chance
really to meet their English learners so
thank you for being so encouraging to
each other that really great point and I
know Rosario has already joined he’s
part of our Facebook group I hope that
in our group Roger you have a chance to
introduce yourself and meet other
members that is a great way to to learn
connect with other people so part of the
group part of the fearless fancy Club is
our vocabulary video that it is gonna
help you understand the full
conversation in English and also help
you understand
TV shows and movies but you need to use
this so in the clumping the course in
The Fearless fluency Club you’ll have a
chance to be in a Facebook group a
private Facebook group I am in that
group and someone else is in that group
too I’m in the groove - I’m lurking okay
oh can you explain what lurk ease yeah
lurking lurking it’s like an open state
this is lurking he’s pretending he’s
there but he’s kind of hiding yes this
is not lurking yes
lurking is lu r k ing Lurky so it’s also
it’s internet slang - it’s a silly word
that you use on the Internet it’s a
silly right yep it means you’re just
watching but you’re not participating
you’re not tucking or typing or anything
like that so when you join the fluency
Club don’t lurk you should participate
and really be using glitch thanks for
that explanation I think we’ve never
talked about the word lurk on the live
face book lessons before so you’re
bringing some new vocabulary that’s
awesome
it’s strange new vocabulary yes Daniel
vocabulary mazes you’ve never been
before
Oh some has a great point it is great to
see you today mister and you English is
simple and easy to understand
good great great I think this is a good
point because in the vocabulary video I
want you to feel comfortable
understanding how we describe things and
I think Dan’s voice is also clear and
understandable and interesting there it
is lurking yes yes Tom’s got an Lu rking
so it’s a good step to understanding
more people because if you just watch an
english movie there’s going to be a lot
of new stuff and if that’s a really big
challenge for you it’s good to start at
a lower step start with conversations
that you can understand a little easier
like this today
thanks so much so I’m really glad to
have Dan here with me today
