English speaking practice is the one thing that you all
want more of, more, more, more.
And the solution is finally here.
Hello everyone.
Anna here from English like a native.co.uk.
As many of you know, my mission as your English teacher is to serve you.
and help you to achieve fluency in English.
I'd describe myself as a pleaser, a yes man.
The problem is my audience has grown from one to one million and
the requests have been flooding in.
I want to speak to each and every one of you, giving you the English
speaking practice you need.
I just can't split myself a million different ways, but I can clone myself.
In 2023, polyglot superstar Xiaoma from XiaomaNYC and a team of highly experienced
language learners and teachers harnessed the power of artificial intelligence
and created an incredible new platform.
Introducing Teacher AI.
This platform is insanely powerful and is going to change everything.
You can practice your English speaking.
You have no more excuses.
You're only available at two in the morning?
Teacher AI.
You feel scared to speak English?
Teacher AI.
You're on a tight budget?
Teacher AI.
You have a busy schedule?
Teacher AI.
Just like the car.
Replaced the horse and carriage and made travel faster and more widely available.
Teacher AI and this technology replaces language teachers.
Hang on a minute.
Does that mean I'm going to be out of a job?
All right.
Perhaps teacher AI doesn't completely replace the need for language
teachers, but it will complement your learning and give more people around
the world the opportunity to master.
A language.
Now there is a saying.
If you can't beat them, join them.
When I first saw this amazing platform, I knew I had to get involved a S ap.
I became an affiliate and requested a clone.
So you can now literally speak to me, clone me 24 7 for as long as you want.
We can chat about anything you want.
Clone me is very knowledgeable.
She will happily correct you, answer questions, explain grammar,
teach you idiomatic expressions, or give you her favorite recipe,
or even relationship advice.
I'm not saying She is perfect.
No one is perfect.
But I know that the platform has come on in leaps and bounds in
the last few months and it's only going to get better and better.
So ladies and gentlemen, I think it's time to show you teacher AI Okay, so when
you enter into Teacher AI, you can choose which language you would like to learn.
So it's not just about English, which is the extra exciting part about
Teacher AI, especially if you're learning more than one language.
So you can see here, there are some examples.
So many languages available for you to practice and to learn with an AI teacher.
I'm going to start with English because obviously that's me.
And on here, there are a number of other English teachers.
It's not just me.
So there are some other teachers here who you may recognize and,
uh, some that may be new to you.
So you can kind of switch things around.
Change things.
And each teacher has a different set of experiences, comes from
different places around the world.
But let's start with me, shall we?
Oh my gosh, this is so weird.
Okay.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to talk to Anna and
see how she's doing today.
Hello, Anna.
How are you doing today?
I'm good.
Thanks.
Keeping busy.
How about yourself?
What are you up to today?
I thought I would come here to talk to you about cooking, if that's okay?
Absolutely.
I love talking about cooking.
What would you like to know or discuss about cooking?
What's your favourite dessert?
I have a sweet tooth for sure.
My favourite dessert is probably a classic apple crumble with vanilla ice cream.
How about you?
What's your favourite sweet treat?
See, she knows me.
She is me.
I do have a sweet tooth.
But let's imagine that along this conversation I come across vocabulary
that I'm not familiar with.
I could simply ask, Anna, what does sweet tooth mean?
A sweet tooth is a saying we use when someone really likes sweet foods
like cakes, cookies, or chocolate.
Do you like sweet things too?
I love sweet things.
My favorite pudding is tiramisu.
So, Anna, what are you going to cook for dinner tonight?
I think I'll make a simple pasta with a tomato sauce and
some garlic bread on the side.
How about you?
What are you planning for dinner?
So you'll notice as I'm talking the numbers at the top of the screen here
are going up and if I click on it you'll see that what's happening is as we're
talking the system is recording both my active vocabulary, so the vocabulary
I've actually used, as well as my passive vocabulary, so the vocabulary I'm hearing.
from Teacher AI from Clone Anna.
And I can, if I want to, export the entire thing as a CSV file, which is very
useful if you like to organize yourself.
You can also go on to the individual words and play them to remind
yourself of how they sound.
And you can get a translation into your language as well if you need it.
I'm gonna try I'm gonna embarrass myself with a bit of French.
I'm not very good with French.
It's been such a long time.
So I'm gonna go to my teacher preferences.
How often should your teacher correct your mistakes?
Always.
I'm aiming for perfection, so please do correct me.
And how should your teacher correct your mistakes?
Ask to repeat or note and move on.
I'm gonna ask her to just note something and move on.
I don't wanna get bogged down and I'm gonna ask her to speak very slow.
for me.
Can we switch to a little English now, Eliza?
I'm getting confused.
Of course we can use a bit of English.
What's confusing you?
Would you like to practice some specific phrases in French?
Yes.
Let's practice talking about what we had for lunch.
Alright.
Start by telling me what you had for lunch in French.
Just try your best, and I'll help you out.
Go ahead.
Pour midi, uh, j'ai mangé la fruit salad et le pain.
Almost perfect, but it should be une salade de fruits
instead of la fruit salade.
So you say, Pour le déjeuner, j'ai mangé une salade de fruits et du pain.
Pour le déjeuner, j'ai mangé une salade de fruits et du pain.
Is that right?
Yes, that's exactly right.
Good job, what kind of bread did you have?
Okay, so I've got her speaking very slowly to help me here.
But I can speed it up if I want to have a more natural conversation.
So I'm not sure here exactly what, comment tu vas.
means.
So what I can do is highlight that phrase and it will tell me what the phrase means.
Oh, and you, how are you?
Comment tu vas?
So that's just a different way of saying, how are you?
I can also, Comment tu vas?
Comment tu vas?
Just check it.
I can also have a look at the entire sentence.
Hi Anna, yes, I'm doing well, thank you.
And you, how are you?
Et toi, comment tu vas?
Qu'est ce que tu fais aujourd'hui?
So I'm going to highlight this.
Um, because what happens is something very special happens.
What happens is when I highlight what separate words or phrases
like that, it starts to record.
Them and keep them in a little, in a little file for me.
Okay.
So today I'm spending my time helping people to learn French and you, what are
the projects you're working on today?
Something like that.
Let me check.
Um, and you, what are your plans for today?
What are your plans for today?
I see.
It's so useful.
Even with my very limited French, I'm finding this really helpful.
And my new phrases that I highlighted here, I can listen to them again.
Qu'est ce que tu fais aujourd'hui?
And any new words.
And I can download this because I love to be organised.
I love tables.
And so I can download this and play with it however I want
to, which is just fabulous.
Teacher AI is perfect for those with a foundation in the language already.
But those who need to just keep practicing, it's not really recommended
for complete beginners, but it is possible to learn a language from scratch using
teacher AI, as Shoma demonstrates in his video over on his channel, Shoma.
I recently became the first person ever, as far as I can tell, to learn
to speak a language from scratch, solely by practicing with AI.
And then I went and tested myself with total strangers to
see how much I actually learned.
And for this challenge, I didn't study from any resources other than Teacher AI.
No textbooks, no grammar resources, no courses, and no human skills.
So I essentially needed to learn 100 percent of everything I needed
to know exclusively from AI.
Hey, I'm actually a total beginner, so we might have to take it a little slow.
Starting slow is perfectly fine.
We can start with greetings.
Hola, como voce esta?
Means, hello, how are you?
I wrote all the words and phrases I learned into a Google Doc
that would eventually come to encompass 10 pages of notes.
But over the next 11 days, we went through an absolute whirlwind of Portuguese.
This is my actual time stamped message log pulled from a database query,
showing the hundreds of messages I exchanged with AI over that time.
So within a few days, I switched to monolingual Portuguese and
we did conversational roleplay on relevant real life topics.
I pretend to be ordering.
Hello, how are you?
Hello, I'm good, And you, how can I help you?
I'm good too, I'm good too, I would like a cup of coffee.
Of course.
Would you also like some accompaniment?
Maybe a cheese bread or a fubá cake?
Ah, cheese bread, my, my favorite.
Do you have cheese bread?
Yes, we have cheese bread.
Would you like one or more?
Do you have plans for the rest of the day?
She's chatting with me like a cool, casual barista, making this
scenario like extra, extra realistic.
So let's just see what it's like if you do go into a completely different language
that you've no foundation in whatsoever.
So I'm going to go and do some Arabic.
Speak in English and tell me how I say hello in Arabic.
Hi.
To say hello in Arabic, you can say marhaba.
Marhaba.
Yes, marhaba is pronounced as marhaba.
You got it right.
To say, how are you?
In Arabic, you say, kayfahaluk.
For speaking to a male and
for speaking to a female.
So to finish up, I'm gonna come back to Anna and have a
bit of a casual fast chitchat.
I burnt the porridge this morning and I can't seem to get the, the
porridge off the bottom of the pan.
It's just burnt.
Do you have any suggestions for cleaning a burnt pan?
Oh no, that's a pain.
For a burnt pan, try soaking it in hot water with some dish soap
for a few hours or overnight.
You can also boil water in it with a bit of baking soda.
After, use a wooden spoon or a spatula to gently scrape off the burnt bits.
Does that sound like something you can try?
Yeah, I don't have a spatula though, but I might be able to dig out a wooden spoon.
A wooden spoon should work fine.
Anna, can we change the subject to relationships, please?
Uh, do you have a boyfriend?
Sure, well let's just say my heart is currently open to adventures.
What about you?
Are you seeing someone special?
Uh, by seeing someone, do you mean dating?
Yes,
that's right.
Seeing someone usually means dating or being in a romantic relationship.
Are you dating anyone at the moment?
Yes, I'm actually dating 40 people all at the same time.
Do you think that's bad of me?
Well, that's quite a number.
As long as everyone involved knows and is OK with it, then
it's really up to you and them.
It's important to be honest in relationships.
How 40 people?
I'm only kidding.
I'm not really dating 40 different people.
I'm in a very Um, happy and long lasting relationship.
Is there, um, a good synonym for long lasting single relationship?
Sure.
You could say you're in a stable, committed, or long term relationship.
Okay.
So I could go on forever.
hours just having a random chat in English with my clone.
I think this is a mind blowing and very exciting tool, especially that
ability to be able to switch in and out of different languages and to be
able to do it wherever you need to for however long, not have to pre plan, pre
book, not have to worry about anything.
You don't have to worry about being judged.
You could say anything.
You can ask any questions.
And it's not perfect, but it's bloody brilliant.
There you go.
