How To Learn English With 1 Video on eJOY English App? | eJOY Tutorials

  • 0:00 - 0:05
    Hi, I'm Ha from eJOY English learning support team.
  • 0:05 - 0:08
    For the past 3 years, we've heard so many of you share that
  • 0:08 - 0:13
    you're learning English with YouTube, BBC, VOA, TED Talk,
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    but your English has not been improved as expected.
  • 0:17 - 0:24
    The main reason is that you don't know how to practice speaking and listening with videos.
  • 0:24 - 0:30
    Instead of watching many videos, you only need to study carefully with a video.
  • 0:30 - 0:34
    A German psychologist, Herman, pointed out that
  • 0:34 - 0:38
    after 1 hour, we forget 50% of what we just watch,
  • 0:38 - 0:45
    after 1 week, we forget 80%, and after 1 month, we forget 90%.
  • 0:45 - 0:51
    In addition, if you only skip through the videos without practicing carefully,
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    you're likely to forget everything you watch in just a month.
  • 0:55 - 1:00
    Don't worry that learning with a video will only teach you a situation,
  • 1:00 - 1:05
    because researches have shown that 90% of vocabulary in a conversation
  • 1:05 - 1:09
    will be repeated in different dialogues.
  • 1:09 - 1:16
    So what you learn carefully in a video will be applicable to many different contexts.
  • 1:16 - 1:20
    So how to study carefully with a video?
  • 1:20 - 1:24
    First make sure that you like the video you want to learn from
  • 1:24 - 1:28
    or the video content is relevant to your life.
  • 1:28 - 1:32
    And now, you can start learning with videos right on the eJOY app.
  • 1:32 - 1:36
    Based on user difficulties, we have developed features
  • 1:36 - 1:42
    that help you to practice speaking, listening, and learning vocabulary easily.
  • 1:42 - 1:47
    First, choose the YouTube video you want to learn and connect it to eJOY.
  • 1:50 - 1:55
    eJOY helps you understand the video content through dual subtitles,
  • 1:56 - 1:58
    look up words while watching,
  • 2:00 - 2:03
    and use AI to explain new concepts.
  • 2:08 - 2:13
    After that, eJOY helps you practice English skills with the content through exercises.
  • 2:13 - 2:19
    Each video has five exercises to help you practice speaking and listening skills.
  • 2:19 - 2:24
    You can choose to practice all exercises or one out of five exercises,
  • 2:24 - 2:27
    depending on the skill you want to improve.
  • 2:27 - 2:31
    The "Active Listening" exercise helps you actively listen.
  • 2:31 - 2:35
    You might think you've understood, but you may miss a lot,
  • 2:35 - 2:40
    such as plurals, past tense, or words that are not clearly pronounced.
  • 2:40 - 2:44
    This exercise is not just for understanding
  • 2:44 - 2:47
    but also for catching those little mistakes
  • 2:47 - 2:52
    we might make while listening, so you can adjust your listening skills.
  • 2:52 - 2:56
    To practice, you'll listen without subtitles,
  • 3:01 - 3:04
    then guess the content and vocabulary.
  • 3:04 - 3:07
    After that, the app will display the correct subtitles.
  • 3:12 - 3:16
    The next exercise is "Quiz" - Complete the sentence.
  • 3:16 - 3:20
    The sentences are scrambled for you to either use your grammar knowledge
  • 3:20 - 3:24
    to rearrange them correctly or use your listening skills
  • 3:24 - 3:27
    to learn how to form sentences correctly.
  • 3:35 - 3:41
    The third one is "Shadow", helping you practice listening and speaking skills.
  • 3:41 - 3:44
    You may forget all the other techniques,
  • 3:44 - 3:48
    but shadowing is the one you must remember to speak English fluently.
  • 3:48 - 3:54
    Shadowing is imitating as closely as possible to the original version.
  • 3:54 - 3:59
    This is also a technique that every child uses to learn their native language.
  • 3:59 - 4:04
    They listen and try to imitate what they hear from those around them.
  • 4:04 - 4:06
    You'll listen to the original video clip,
  • 4:09 - 4:10
    then mimic it,
  • 4:13 - 4:16
    and eJOY will score and point out your mistakes.
  • 4:16 - 4:22
    If you're just starting to speak English, your pronunciation may not be perfect.
  • 4:22 - 4:23
    But don't worry too much.
  • 4:23 - 4:26
    Just like children, when they first learn to speak,
  • 4:26 - 4:29
    they often speak unclearly or incorrectly,
  • 4:29 - 4:34
    but with enough listening and speaking practice, they'll speak correctly.
  • 4:36 - 4:38
    The next exercise is "Write"
  • 4:38 - 4:41
    Recognizing letters and completing sentences.
  • 4:41 - 4:44
    You'll listen to the audio,
  • 4:47 - 4:48
    then write out what you hear.
  • 4:53 - 4:58
    This helps you recognize difficult sounds or sounds that are often missed,
  • 4:58 - 5:05
    such as plural sounds, "s", "es", "ed", function words like "a", "an", "the", etc.
  • 5:08 - 5:12
    The final and most challenging exercise is "Role-play",
  • 5:12 - 5:17
    immersing yourself in the video character to speak smoothly, at the right speed,
  • 5:17 - 5:20
    intonation, swallowing, and linking sounds.
  • 5:51 - 5:53
    That is all about learning English with videos on eJOY.
  • 5:53 - 5:57
