I’ve always wanted to learn a Native American language, but it’s been extremely difficult to find anyone with whom I could learn as most indigenous American languages are considered critically endangered or extinct. So a couple months ago I was extremely excited to get in touch with someone who could teach me Navajo, the original language of the Navajo people who live mostly in the Navajo Nation located in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. Less than 200,000 people speak Navajo in the entire world. Navajo is hands down the hardest language I’ve ever studied, with extremely challenging pronunciation and one of the most complex grammatical systems of any extant language. It’s so complex that the language was used by the Navajo code talkers as the basis for a secret communication system during World War II.
But even though many young people no longer speak the language, the older generation often still does, and so after a month of studying the language and me and my crew’s COVID vaccinations we flew out to New Mexico to find locals to practice with. Thanks to Raycon for sponsoring this video and I’ll be donating 100% of the sponsorship profits to NavajoStrong, a nonprofit which supports the Navajo community. If you would like to find out more about or donate to NavajoStrong, you can find them at: https://www.navajostrong.org/

[專頁公告] 英文學習「生態系」更新
English Learning Ecosystem Update
As I began exploring Instagram, I struggled to find a way to deliver useful academic content. Instagram posts typically focus on images, short clips, and concise text, which are attention grabbing but not always entirely conducive to language learning. I looked over the posts of established Instagram English learning accounts, and experimented with vocabulary posts and even news posts for a couple of weeks. Not wanting to post just images, I thought about creating something new even with the rigid format of the platform.
當我開始研究怎麼用IG,我想盡了各種辦法,希望能提供大家一些實用的學術內容。 IG 的特色著重在圖片、短片以及簡潔的文字,這樣的方式雖然很容易引人注目,卻不全然有助於語言學習。我瀏覽了 IG 上英文教學網紅的貼文,並在這幾週嘗試發了一些學術單字與新聞相關的文章。我並不想只是發一些圖片,而思考著要如何在既有框架下創作一些新的東西。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
A tenet of using tech in education is to engage students with what they are familiar with, not give them an entirely new platform that is difficult to use. So, how could I create a new series of Instagram posts that is both educational and unique? I thought about my goal to disseminate academic English resources, and how I could leverage my experience as a curriculum writer and voice recording artist for public school textbooks.
一個使用科技進行教育的原則是用學生熟悉的方式與他們互動,而非用了全新的平台卻使他們難以學習。那麼,我應該如何創作獨特且具教育意義的一系列全新 IG 發文呢?我想到了我傳遞學術英文資源的目標,以及思考到該如何發揮身為教科書編輯者與音頻錄製者的經驗。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
So far, this is what I have at the moment. I will post Word of the Day (每日一詞), high frequency vocabulary words that you see in academic texts and sometimes on the news. These Tier 2 academic vocabulary words are not exclusive to a single domain and complement the theme-based approach I’ve taken with my mind-mapping vocabulary class. You can find other vocabulary learning methods here.
這是我目前所想到的內容:我會發布「每日一詞」,也就是學術文章或是新聞中有時出現的高頻字彙。這些Tier 2學術詞彙並不限於單個領域,更補充了我在心智圖詞彙攻略課程中採用的主題式學習法。你還可以在下面網站找到其他詞彙學習方法。

In these posts, I added the pronunciation, collocation, and example sentences of each word for students. These words will be helpful to university-level students who often read academic texts and the news. Students can access them by simply clicking on the hashtag 學術英語單字.
在這些貼文中,我為學生提供了發音、搭配用法和例句。這些單字會對經常閱讀學術文章和新聞的大學程度學生有所幫助。學生只要點貼文上的#學術英語單字即可看到貼文。

★★★★★★★★★★★★
To help students use more precise and common academic phrases, I then added Academic Phrases (每日一句), set phrases that appear in both academic speech and writing. These phrases have varying functions from introducing a topic to comparing and contrasting ideas. There is a difference between speech and writing, so I picked words that could be used for both. If one is used only in a specific context, I will make note of it in the video recording. This series of posts will help students with language output, and can be found under the following hashtag 學術英語片語.
為了幫助學生使用更精準、更道地的常見學術用語,我們接著會進入「每日一句」,也就是在學術演說與寫作中常見的用語。這些片語具有不同的功能,範圍涵蓋介紹主題到比較、對比想法等等。而演講和寫作之間也有不同,所以我選擇了都可以使用的片語。如果只能在特定情況下使用,我會在影片中特別說明。該系列文章將會幫助學生提高語言輸出能力,可以在 # 學術英語片語找到。

Last, I will follow up with an abridged version of breaking news (時事英文) with high frequency collocations and audio recordings. This will provide students with the input of not only individual words, but how to use them in output (speech and writing) with context. While all these news posts might seem independent at first, I will eventually link and organize them by theme when there are enough posts. Along with my news class, these extra posts will help students stay aware of current events, acquire set phrases used in journalism, and develop critical thinking. These posts can currently be found under the hashtag EEL時事英文.
最後,我們會跟進精簡版的「時事英文」,其中包含高頻搭配詞與錄音資料。這些內容不僅可以提供你們輸入單字,而且可以幫助你們知道如何搭配情境輸出,再將這些內容使用在口說與寫作中。這些貼文一開始雖然看似獨立,當素材足夠後我會再將他們進行連結與整理。這些貼文和我的新聞課程將幫助學生維持對時事的敏銳度,掌握新聞中使用的固定用法,並養成批判性思維。這些貼文目前可以在 # EEL時事英文。

[英文口說] When “experienced” IELTS teachers get together...
當英文「老」師聚在一起練習口說的時候…
加起來,我們大概有超過1世紀的英文口說經驗。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
回歸正題…
那麼,我們要如何在雅思口說部分表現優異呢?
雅思的評分標準告訴我們要注意流暢性及連貫性 (fluency and coherence)、詞彙多樣性 (lexical resource)、文法多樣性及準確性 (grammatical range and accuracy),以及發音 (pronunciation)。然而,這些評分標準並沒有提供太多關於我們該如何建構回答的資訊。第1部分要求考生回答三組日常生活相關的問題,第2部分要求考生具備連續兩分鐘口說的能力,第3部分則回答與第2部分相關但相對複雜與抽象的問題。
我們該如何回答這些問題呢?
★★★★★★★★★★★★
在第1部分,你可以通過闡述和解釋來擴展你的答案。切記不要只提供單一字詞的回答。由於問題通常是普遍的日常話題,所以你可以參考一些常見的答案。你不應該採用太過僵化而老套的答案作為自己的回答,但有資訊參考總是有所助益。
在第一部分中,有六種方式可以擴展你的答案: 舉例 (provide examples) ,解釋原因 (explain) , 給相關細節 (give details) ,比較和對比(compare and contrast),頻率 (mention frequency) ,與未來計畫 (talk about future plans)
Example:
My favourite colour is black.
(Give an example) I’ve got lots of black clothes.
我有很多黑色的衣服。
(Explain) I wear a lot of black because I look thin in black.
我常穿黑色的衣服,因為我穿黑色顯瘦。
(Frequency) I think I wear black too often though. My entire wardrobe is black.
我想我太常穿黑色了,我整個衣櫃裡都是黑色。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
關於第二部分,如果可以的話,使用心智圖 (mind mapping)的方式做筆記,這可以幫助你逐個破解子問題。心智圖還可以幫助你把想法串聯起來,增加回答的連貫性。需要電影「TENET天能」的心智圖例子請留言「All three teachers look very young」 。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
至於第三部分,討論部分,你可以使用 A-E-C (Answer, Example, Concede or Conclude) 的方法。
以下是在雅思口說Part3中使用AEC的例子。
Staying in hotels
1. What things are important when people are choosing a hotel?
當人們選擇旅館時,哪些因素是重要的?
(Answer) Well it really depends on the individual. (Example) Location is one important factor to consider. (Explanation) You wouldn’t want to stay in a hotel that is too far from public transport if you don’t have a car. (Example) Another important thing most people care about is the price. (Explanation) Wealthy travellers might not even look at the price, but for the majority of people, it’s important to find a hotel that’s good value. (Example) Then there are other considerations, like the reputation of the hotel, the décor and the services and facilities that they provide.
(答案)嗯,這真的因人而異。(例子)位置是一個重要的考慮因素。(解釋)如果你沒有車,你就不會想住在離大眾運輸太遠的旅館。(例子)另一個大多數人都關心的重要因素是價格。(解釋)有錢的旅行者可能根本不看價格,但對於大多數人來說,找到一家物美價廉的旅館很重要。(例子)然後還有其他的考慮因素,比如旅館的口碑、裝潢以及他們提供的服務和設施。
★★★★★★★★★★★★

HOW TO REMEMBER TONES OF VOCABULARY
I often get students said: It's so hard to remember the tones of my vocabulary.
And it seems that tones are important, and Chinese natives might not understand or misunderstand you if you don't get your tones right, what should I do?
How should I work on my tones and remember the tones?
For example: party vs. queue in Mandarin / steamed bun vs. newspaper in Mandarin
So in this livestream, I'm going to share how I suggest my students to do in order to remember the tones of Chinese vocabulary.

4. social media can be both plural or uncountable:
https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/social-media
https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/social-media
Media and data are often used as collective nouns, so you will see them them follow by both a singular or plural verb form. The term “social media” is both uncountable and plural in modern English usage. The word “media” is traditionally a plural because “medium” is the singular.
5. "disinformation" is used in our class video rather than "misinformation" to stress the next phrase (so-called FAKE news): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disinformation, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fake_news
