There are subtle pronunciations that you can't understand just by looking at a movie script. I will explain every single one of them. I'll teach you things you would have never known if it weren't for this lecture!
I love studying with my favorite movies because I can study repeatedly like I'm a fan! In addition, the short lecture time + Infraon PIP mode allows me to listen to it easily during my commute, so it's not a burden.

Each lecture is about 10~15 minutes long, so I can listen to it without feeling burdened. I am weak in speaking and listening, so it is good that they explain pronunciation, intonation, stress, and liaisons in detail. I am studying by diligently following along with each sentence~~ The movie About Time itself is also good!

Why the movie About Time?
1. Overwhelmingly high rating, 9.3
Shadowing is something you cannot sustain for long with just willpower alone. The first step to successful shadowing is "selection." First and foremost, it must be a movie that you find interesting. About Time is a film with a rating of over 9 points on Korea's largest portal site.
2. A story that blends growth and romance well
Tim meets Mary and goes through the process of dating, marriage, children, and parenting. Meanwhile, he also works as a lawyer. It is a substantial movie where you can learn English patterns and expressions necessary for various situations, such as the office, home, and presentations.

How is this different from other shadowing VODs?
1) Listening while filling in the blanks
It doesn't end with simply writing down what you hear once. All dictations are designed by parts of speech. You will listen once while focusing on verbs, and another time while focusing on prepositions. Naturally, you will intuitively grasp which prepositions pair with which verbs and how to utilize those prepositions.
2) Utilizing English-English Dictionaries
Ultimately, to become fluent in English, you must develop the power of thinking like a native speaker. The first step is to understand the meaning of words from a native speaker's perspective. Don't just shadow the sentences you practiced today and move on. Pick one important word from the sentences, identify how a native speaker used it, and read through the example sentences. In just a two-week course, you will find yourself studying with an English-English dictionary.
3) Movie Commentator
Most movies are difficult to understand accurately without knowing the culture and context of that country. Yet, that's exactly where the fun of watching a movie lies. Don't worry. I will explain everything so that you don't miss a single scene. As you come to understand the context of the country, the movie will become richer and you'll truly enjoy it.

After using only Korean in Korea, I suddenly became a KATUSA and started studying English. It was a relief that I had some time, but I went through so much trial and error. I teach English that helps you avoid those mistakes and create expressions that are truly your own—English you can put to use in the real world immediately.
You don't need to become a native speaker to be good at English. Everything you need is right here. I will be with you until everyone overcomes the language barrier and builds the skills to take on greater opportunities.

- I like that the lectures are short! No pressure 😉
- Rather than just shadowing, you can gradually improve your speaking skills by starting with word stress
- The movie is so fun that you want to keep listening to the next lecture
I recommend it to absolute beginners too ㅋㅋㅋ
