Commentary

Hello and welcome to the commentary for the “hitch introduction.” Let’s get started

Hitch is a great movie by the way, it’s a really nice movie and the romantic comedy, it’s funny, starting will smith and i have used hitch many times in my classes in San Francisco. I will use the whole movie not just one scene, that i will teach the entire movie, little by little.

And what i do is called the for skills movie technique, but a minutes it sound great that good, it really quite simple.

I show one scene in a movie, maybe two minutes, maybe one minutes, and i show in normal speed, then i go back, then i show it again and i pause and i explain new vocabulary, slang and idioms, then i go back again then, i this the third time i turn the sound off and then i play part of the scene , i pause and i ask the students questions about the movie, and I’m say, you know what’s happening here? describe this character? what do you think he is thinking? Why is he doing this? What is this person doing? describe of the place, where they are at? What are the same to each other? Any way, i ask a lot of questions about what’s happening in the movie. Then after we finish that three times, i go to the next scene than we do same thing again.

So, one movie usually takes a few weeks to, to show. its, its verbs really well, is very, very popular my students love it if the most, if the most popular thing i doing in my class. and so i started thinking this is really popular students love it.

how can  i do this on effortless english is more difficult i can show you the movie on effortless english. But i thought maybe i could record scenes from the movie the audio and then i could used that for the basic lesson then i could make vocabulary lessons in mini-story lessons, to help you understand that movie scene.

So, that’s why this hitch introduction is my first try, my first experiment to see if can start using movies.

Steve Kaufmann at the linguist and i, i think we just agree about movies, he doesn’t like movies, he thinks movies are not very good for learning language.

He giving if there not intensive enough, and i understand his point, there is a lot more language concentrated in a book and audio book or audio article.

However, i just agree, i think there fantastic ways to learn languages, fantastic sources. because three thing i like a lot movies, number one; movies use more natural, conversational english in a books, even, even authentic real native speaker articles or books.

They use a writing style of english. It’s a little bit more formal between what we actually use when we speak. Because when we speak, we use a lot more idioms, we use a lot more slang, we use words like “ain’t, gonna, wanna.” All those kinds of things with we used every single day, if you listen to two Americans talking to each other, they do not sound like written english.

You know, it’s, It’s, it’s different kind of English.

If It’s not better or worse but it is a little bit different.

Movies are closer to that kind of English, the kind of english you hear on the street that’s you walk around San Francisco, people speak more like you hear in the movies, not so much like you hear or see in books.

So, i think movies are out great way to learn real conversational English, casual English and especially Americans are quite casual, when you speak we usually are casual, even if i speak to my boss, i’m not formal. i’m very casual when i speak to my boss, when i speak to teachers, when i speak to my parents, i’m very casual.

So, i like movies for that reason.

Another reason i like movies, movies have a continue story, so, you can understand the vocabulary and the phrases in the slang. It’s, there is a big context, you understand the whole situation and especially when you can see it, you, you, you understand more how the vocabulary is used in what situations the vocabulary is used. and, and the third reason, i think movies a great from memory, because you not only hear the language, what you have a picture to connect with the language.

So, if you hear the line you know, any man can sweep any woman off her feet, sweep off her feet. Well you could memorize that phrase and you could read in an article, that’s okay. But If you see the movie hitch you will, you will have some images, you have some pictures from the movie to connect with that phrase, and it will help you remember the phrase much, much, much more easily.

So, for all of those reasons i think movies actually are very powerful ways to learn languages.

If you use them correctly, just watching the movie full speed, one time it’s not good, it’s not efficient. Steve is right, it’s not a good way to use movie is correctly you really to watch it scene by scene; you need to repeat the scenes many times. Now, if you don’t have a teacher to help you, like my class, i can help them, i can do it.

But if you’re on your own, you’re at your home, yet you’re doing this yourself, here is what you can do, by a DVD or rent the DVD, what’s say hitch i recommend do it with hitch.

You put it in, and maybe watch it one time to get the general idea, but to study what it to learn with it, you go back and  you do will I do in my class, you play one scene you use English subtitles, and you play the scene one time, trying to get the general idea.

Then you go back, you pause after one minute or two minutes, you go back to the beginning of the scene, you play it again this time. Every time you don’t understand a word or phrase, you pause.

You write it down in little your notebook or something and you use your dictionary and you find out. Oh, Wow, what does this word mean, what does this word mean. If it’s an idiom or slang you might need to get on the internet. go to Google and type in English idioms. There’re many different websites, so you can find some of those idioms, some of that slang. You can find it on the internet, the meaning.  So, you, you go for the scene little by little, right? Step by step. Find in all of new words and phrases and slang and idioms, that you can find. If you can’t find something just don’t worry about it , just forget it keep going.

Just get as much as you can.

After that, go back again, watch the scene one more time, this time you should understand more.

Then go the next scene, reaped the same process. It will take you some time to go through all of the movie . But the good thing news you will be learning real conversational English as native speakers use it on the street.

In real conversations, you won’t be learning, a text book English that nobody uses. You won’t be using or learning more formal English, which people Do you use but maybe not as much will be using Average everyday conversional English, that’s good.

So, that’s one great way to use movies, one reason I love movies, using them in class.

And, I think that’s why they’re very popular with my students.

My students often complain, wow I know all the textbook English, I understand all this grammar we did, you know, I’ve studied all my of these years. And i can read articles, I can read TOEFL articles, and understand them.

But I go the bus stop, two Americans are talking to each other, i can’t understand them, I don’t know what they’re saying.

It’s Because they’re using casual English, they’re using a lot of idioms, they’re using slang, for speaking quickly, all those reasons, there not speaking the way the text book speak.

So, that’s my sales pitch, use movies.

Now for hitch, if you like this, if you me using this movie that you like this lesson.

Please tell me, go to the forums and write the comment.

Just tell me AJ please, use more movies, if you tell me that, if members tell me they want movies, I will do this more, maybe all do in next scene in hitch. maybe I go through moves to hitch, scene by scene and do lessons for each part. and eventually you could do whole movie this way.

So, if you like that idea please, tell me. If no one tells me, I might not do it, because It is a lot work I wanna make sure that you like that.

But one important part of this is, that you need the Pictures, right? just listening to the audio, is ok, but you really should watch the movie at least one time.

So to get the most power from this lesson please, go rent to the movie hitch.

The movie name‘s hitch, this, the star is Will Smith the actor.

Rent the movie at least one time, then when you hear the audio, from effortless English, you can remember some of the pictures, you can remember what’s happening in story, because you saw the movie. So this is very important to go get this movie and watch it. It will be much better than just listening to effortless English only. if you watch it first, then the lessons will be powerful for you.

Ok, finally I have one more a suggestion for you for using movies.

In that is, movie is great for pronunciation work, for improving your pronunciation.

In fact, when I’m with my private students, I use movies all the time, to help them with pronunciation.

In fact, I use the speech of the beginning of hitch, I’ve used it many, many times.

The reason is this, one as I said already movies use conversational English Usually, the kinds of that movie usually.

And number two; often or usually the actors have very good pronunciations, and movie like “hitch” with Will Smith, a movie Like “about a Boy” with Hugh Grant, they have excellent pronunciation. Right? They’re  professionals. They get paid a lot of money to speak well, to speak powerfully, to have really clear, strong an English speech. So there good people to imitate. You know, Imitate Julia Roberts, imitate Will Smith, imitate Hugh Grant. if you’re pronunciation is like they are use, you’ll sound fantastic.

So, I’d like using this movie scene for pronunciation.

Here’s watch you do, use the audio from this lesson hitch intro audio, the MP3, the regional from the movie, and first listen to it many times, you know over, you know one week two weeks, listen to it until you understand it easily.

Then start, pause in, after every sense pause, and repeat the line, repeat the sentence, Try to copy will Smith pronunciation, exactly. When I say exactly that i mean, copy his pauses, where this he pause, where this stop, where this his speak quickly, which words go together quickly, which words are separated by a pause. Copy his intonation, when does he go up, and when does he go down.    Copy his loudness, his volume. When does he speak more loudly, when does he speak more quietly. Copy his emotion. When does he sounding like he’s a little bit funny. When does he sounding like he’s a serious.

Copy all of those things, and of course, copy actually the words how he says the words, but all those other things are very, very, very important. You will need to do this, well you could do this every day for one year.  You can probably do this every day for 10 years, but do it over a long career if time. Each time you will get better and better .It’s slow pronunciation takes some time, and it takes a lot of repletion, it takes a lot of careful listening, it’s not fast and easy, I’ll be honest, it’s not. but if you can do it, little by little, if you use something like from a movie for a little more interesting, I guarantee your pronunciation will improve it will get much better my students that I work with my private students. When they do this, when they use hitch, for example.

To practice pronunciation, It’s amazing over a few months three, four, five months. There are pronunciation is so much better. so, Please, try this it will help you a lot.

Alright, that’s the end of my comments. I guess this is mostly a commentary, Contains a lot of suggestions, I’m trying to suggest to you different ways to use movies, to study and improve your English.

I think, most if you will enjoy using movies more than using textbooks, and maybe more than articles. I don’t know, depends on each do it.

Already, I will see you next time; and remember if you like me using the movies, if you want me to use more movies. Then, please, write a comment in the forums.
