00:17 | Hello, Ann! How are you doing? |
00:19 | I'm fine. |
00:20 | Ann, could you introduce yourself and tell people where you are from? |
00:24 | Yeah, my name's Ann Hutchingson and I'm from Montreal, Canada. And right now I'm an English teacher in Tokyo, Japan. |
00:33 | Mm. OK. What's Montreal like? |
00:35 | Montreal is a really nice city. It's just very cold in the wintertime. |
00:40 | It is..uh, it has four seasons, and the nicest season is the summertime because it's really warm and people play a lot of sports, |
00:49 | and there are some parks in Montreal, and you can go swimming and hiking and biking and rollerblading. It's a very interesing city. |
00:59 | Wow! Were you born in Montreal? |
01:01 | I was born in Montreal and I can speak two languages. English is my first language but I also studied French in high school. |
01:09 | So, were you in a submersion program, or all your subjects in French. |
01:13 | No, I went to an English high school but a lot of people in Montreal are in immersion programs. |
01:21 | OK. Since you learned French, what do you think is the best way to learn language? |
01:25 | I think that you have to like learning another language and if you have a possitive attitude then you can find learning another language fun rather than stressful |
01:37 | so I think that I had a few French friends and we would practice and they would be very patient and I liked the fact that I could communicate using another language cause then you have another identity. |
01:53 | You have your French identity? |
01:55 | I do. |
01:57 | OK. So what's your name in French? |
01:58 | "Mono e Ann" |
02:00 | Wow! I need to get myself a French name? |
02:05 | Todd. |
02:07 | OK. Thanks a lot Ann. |
02:09 | You're welcome. Nice speaking with you. |
