  • You are trying to learn speaking skills but can't improve as much as you want to.

  • Here are some techniques to help you.

  • The first one is shadowing.

  • You will speak during the conversation.

  • Don't forget the videos, accent, rhythm, pronunciation, and tone.

  • And the last one we call duet.

  • Now you will be a part of it.

  • There's going to be a line for you to say.

  • Let's practice.

  • Good morning. Welcome to Melia Hotel. May I help you?

  • Hello. I need to cancel my hotel booking.

  • Could you assist me with that?

  • Absolutely. I'm here to help.

  • Could I have your name and booking details, please?

  • Yeah, I'm Jane Smith.

  • The booking is under Smith from Monday to Friday next week.

  • Got it, Miss Smith.

  • I found your booking.

  • Just want to double-check, you want to cancel the whole thing, right?

  • Yes, exactly.

  • All right, understood.

  • May I ask why you're canceling?

  • Yeah, there's been a sudden change in my travel plans.

  • So I won't be able to come to the city after all.

  • Which means, I won't be needing the hotel.

  • Got it.

  • No worries at all.

  • Will there be a cancellation fee?

  • No, Miss Smith. You won't be charged anything as it's within our cancellation policy.

  • Ah, got it. Thanks.

  • No problem.

  • I've canceled your booking and you'll get a confirmation email soon.

  • If you need to book again in the future, just let us know.

  • Thanks for being so understanding and helpful.

  • I really appreciate it.

  • No worries, Miss Smith.

  • We look forward to hopefully serving you in the future. Have an awesome day.

  • Excellent. Let's move on to the next exercise.

  • So now you're in the conversation.

  • I'm going to read my lines and you'll read your lines on the screen.

  • Here we go.

  • Doctor, doctor! My daughter's burned and needs help ASAP.

  • She's hurting real bad. We're freaked out.

  • I get it.

  • That's really unfortunate.

  • Burns are super painful.

  • Let's see how bad it is. Ok?

  • Oh God, is it really bad?

  • Stay calm. Let me take a look.

  • What happened. How'd she get burned?

  • She touched a hot pan while cooking and hot oil splashed on her hands.

  • I understand.

  • When did all this happen?

  • Just 10 minutes ago? Doctor!

  • I'm sorry to hear. We'll get started on treatment right away.

  • So, how is it?

  • Is she gonna be all right?

  • It looks like a second degree burn.

  • Oh my God. That sounds terrible.

  • Don't stress. The burn's not huge.

  • She's in the right place. She'll be ok.

  • Will she have a scar?

  • We're really worried.

  • Too soon to say, but we'll try our best to avoid that.

  • First, let's cool down the burn and keep it safe.

  • I'll cover it with something clean.

  • Thank you. Thank you, doctor.

  • Does she need meds or more doctor visits?

  • Yes. She'll get pain meds and an ointment.

  • Anything we should watch out for?

  • Keep it clean and dry, alright?

  • If it starts looking worse, come back.

  • We'll be super careful. I promise.

  • Thanks, doctor.

  • No problem.

  • Keep that burn covered and avoid extreme temperatures.

  • Got it, loud and clear.

  • I can't thank you enough, doctor.

  • It's all good.

  • That's why I'm here. Take good care of her.

  • Doctor.

  • Ok.

  • So that's the end of today's lesson.

  • To get the best results, you can listen to the dialogue over and over again until you can speak fluently and smoothly.

  • Or recording what you say is also a super efficient way to perfect your pronunciation.
