Hi everybody, BigBong here and welcome back to another review
I know that some of you are watching my videos
in order to practice your listening skills in English
Now listening is one thing and most of you
probably understand everything I'm saying
Or let's say, you can watch movies without subtitles for example
But speaking is on another level
It takes way more brain power and the path to mastering it
can really take you out of your comfort zone
So if you're interested in becoming fluent in English
then I might have the perfect app for you
It's called LingoChamp and it's pretty revolutionary
because it involves artificial intelligence
So without further ado, let's see how it looks like
Alright so I've just launched the app and here is basically
my progress but if we go to the second tap called "explore"
at the bottom, we can see three modes
Core Curriculum, Oral Courses
and Special Courses for business English
Today, I'm using the premium plus subscription
So I have access to all the modes
And I'll show you around just to give you an idea
of how the app works
By the way, all subscriptions have a 3-day trial
with more than 300 free dubbing exercises
So why not download it right now?
So we can try it together!
The link is in the description
Now some of you might already know
but English is not my native tongue and when I edit my videos
it's frustrating to see how many mistakes I make
So it could be interesting for me to see my actual level in English
And I'll do that by taking the placement test
Alright, so to test my English level
we'll go to the last tab "Me"
And then here we have "Test My English Level"
Here we go, "start the test"
Would you like to take the test now?
The highest score you receive will be used to help identify
the optimal starting level for you in Core Curriculum
Confirm, warm up
Let's warm up before the test
This part won't affect the test result
Hello
This is a bus
One
Alright, lets start the test now, part one!
It's cloudy today
She is wearing a coat because it's very cold today
How is the weather today?
Yes, please
It's hot
I'm fine, thanks
I'm from China
Wait haha
What was it again?
I think it's B
Yeah here we go
Her car didn't start because its battery was dead
Why didn't her car start?
Because her battery was dead
It didn't start, she got a new battery
It needed a new battery
Part 1 completed
Keep going
Part 2
Why didn't you let me know you were going to be late?
I was in the wrong building
I knew I was going to be late
I thought you already knew
I got on the wrong bus
Well, I thought you already knew
John still hadn't arrive at the park by the time Sally and Mary came
Sally came before Mary did
We don't know about that...
Mary was the last one to arrive
Mary and Sally got there before John
Part 3
That restaurant is very popular
so you need to make reservations a week in advance
The hotel is across the street from the subway stop
Ok, so this is my test report
My score comparison
Can do this level: understand numbers and time
Briefly introduce yourself and your family
Simple conversations with English speakers
Be able to travel abroad
Adapt to a purely English environment
This is my capability
Listening: 86
Speaking: 100; Reading: 100
Vocabulary: 93
And grammar: 87
So as you could see, there were a variety of entertaining
and gamified exercises
Now let's try the input part with first, the Core Curriculum
There are 8 levels of systematic courses
created by native English speakers
with detailed performance analysis report after each lesson
I'm currently level 5 and here we go
Hello everyone, I'm Alix
Welcome to today's English masterclass
Today's topic is "going to your high school reunion"
We tend to have mixed feelings about high school
So that's basically how it looks like... input learning
Now business English, as the name says
is more focused on covering professional English
used in interviews, meetings, presentations and emails
So let me show you briefly but it's gonna be very similar
to what we did during the placement test
Emily is Chinese
She is a secretary
She works for the Lau group
The Lau group is a shipping company
It ships goods all over the world
Whats does her company do?
She works for the Lau group
It's a large company... It ships goods
So the next step is the output portion of the learning
with coach Alix
Here you can see AI talk
which is basically a virtual teacher
who can chat with you like Siri with Apple products
but specifically with English teaching content
So let's give it a try
Staying in a hotel
What facilities, goods and services does the hotel provide?
Please adjust the volume
Tap the mic below and speak
Yes!
I can hear it clearly
Alright, let's go!
How are you today?
I'm good thank you! How are you?
Perfect, thanks!
What's this kind in-room amenity?
If you are not sure of its English name
you may just say "I don't know"
It's a toothbrush
Good, you are right
What do we use to wash our hair?
We use shampoo
Right, shampoo can help us to clean our hair
What can you use to wash your body or clothes?
I can use soap to wash my body and clothes
Good
The use of soap provides a healthier environment for us
Very good, you learned a lot from this lesson
This is the final part of our lesson
And let's review what we learned today
So in this lesson, we leanred how to stay in a hotel
I can see great progress in your vocabulary
Well thank you!
But you still got a lot to improve on your pronunciation
Here we go...
Still, I have to say, you are a really hard working student
And I enjoyed all your improvements
So that's all for our class today
It's been really nice talking with you
He is very nice
I'm looking forward to our next class already
Hope you have a great time and see you
Well I have to say, that's very pleasant
He is extremely supportive and nice
And finally, you get your performance analysis report
Expression ability 85.5
So I guess, that's not bad at all
80% users have increased their English expression ability
by 7.8 points after completing 3 courses with Alix
Fluency: You answered 22 questions with ease
Vocabulary: In this lesson, you've already spoken 137 words
Wow!
Again, I have to emphasize on the fact that what's really amazing
about this app is its AI-powered speech recognition
coupled with the assessment engine
which means that you can listen to the original audio
from an English speaker first and then record yourself on top of that
This method is called shadowing
and it's a method I use in every language learn
to get my pronunciation as close as possible to the native one
As I say earlier in the video
there are hundreds of dubbing exercises
but the great thing is that you can make your own dubbing videos
They will appear in the ranking chart
and you can also watch and like other people's video
It's a very good practice before facing native speakers in real life
We have learned to love ourselves
So now I urge you to speak yourself
[Ruka repeating the dubbing exercise]
So that's it for today
If you really want to become fluent in English
then you should definitely give it a try
All the details are in the description
