   Tutor Welcome to MicroEnglish. In this B2 lesson, meet Sam,
2. 0:04
   Tutor a new colleague who listens more than he speaks at lunch. Over
3. 0:07
   Tutor the next few weeks, that changes. We'll follow three moments
4. 0:11
   Tutor and learn how to describe growing social confidence, while
5. 0:15
   Tutor remembering that being quiet is perfectly fine.
6. 0:18
   Tutor On Monday, Sam answers questions politely but
7. 0:22
   Tutor rarely starts a conversation. We can't tell whether he's shy,
8. 0:26
   Tutor tired or simply listening. Later, when he feels
9. 0:30
   Tutor more comfortable with the team, he begins sharing stories.
10. 0:33
    Tutor His colleague says, Sam is coming out of his shell.
11. 0:37
    Tutor These are three stages of one change, not three
12. 0:41
    Tutor different meanings. To come out of your shell means to become
13. 0:44
    Tutor less shy or reserved and more confident with other people.
14. 0:48
    Tutor The change can happen gradually, or during one enjoyable
15. 0:52
    Tutor conversation.
16. 0:53
    Tutor Learn come out of your shell as a complete expression. The
17. 0:58
    Tutor shell is a picture of someone keeping themselves protected.
18. 1:01
    Tutor We aren't talking about a real shell. In speech, out
19. 1:05
    Tutor of often connects smoothly. Let shell carry a clear
20. 1:08
    Tutor beat when you practise.
21. 1:10
    Tutor Trying pottery alone doesn't necessarily mean coming out of
22. 1:14
    Tutor your shell. Starting conversations with other learners might.
23. 1:18
    Tutor The expression focuses on social behaviour. It
24. 1:21
    Tutor also doesn't mean becoming the loudest person in the room.
25. 1:24
    Tutor Someone can remain quiet and still feel much more confident.
26. 1:29
    Tutor Change come for the time: is coming,
27. 1:33
    Tutor came, has come. Match the possessive to the person:
28. 1:37
    Tutor my shell, his shell, her shell. With several
29. 1:41
    Tutor people, their shells is usual. Notice the past participle:
30. 1:45
    Tutor she's come out of her shell, not she's came.
31. 1:49
    Tutor At the second lunch, someone mentions pottery. Sam
32. 1:53
    Tutor asks a question, then tells a funny story about a bowl he made.
33. 1:57
    Tutor A shared interest helps him feel at ease. Saying he
34. 2:01
    Tutor started coming out of his shell suggests a beginning, rather
35. 2:04
    Tutor than a complete personality change.
36. 2:07
    Tutor A month later, Sam invites a new colleague to join lunch.
37. 2:11
    Tutor He's really come out of his shell with this team. That final
38. 2:14
    Tutor detail matters: confidence can depend on the group. This
39. 2:18
    Tutor conversational expression suits friendly discussion, though
40. 2:22
    Tutor formal feedback may need more specific descriptions.
41. 2:26
    Tutor Be careful when giving advice. You need to come out of your
42. 2:29
    Tutor shell can make someone feel judged. An invitation gives them
43. 2:32
    Tutor a choice. When using this expression, retain the
44. 2:36
    Tutor full phrase out of your shell. Practise it together:
45. 2:40
    Tutor come out of your shell.
46. 2:42
    Tutor Next, hear two British and two American conversations.
47. 2:46
    Tutor Listen for evidence of changing confidence. Choose an answer
48. 2:50
    Tutor before checking the explanation. On the replay, connect
49. 2:54
    Tutor the expression to the words around it.
50. 2:57

51. 3:01
    Tutor change have they noticed?
52. 3:03
    George Ben used to leave as soon as practice finished.

    Alice the break.
55. 3:10
    Alice Yes, he even asked me about my holiday.
56. 3:19
    Tutor Ben now starts conversations. Joining in shows
57. 3:22
    Tutor growing social confidence; the speakers say nothing about his
58. 3:26
    Tutor singing ability.
59. 3:27
    George Ben used to leave as soon as practice finished.

63. 3:38
    Tutor After a game evening, Roger asks Jessica about
64. 3:42
    Tutor her experience. What helped her?
65. 3:45
    Roger Did you enjoy meeting my friends?
66. 3:48
    Roger I was nervous, but I came out of my shell when I explained
67. 3:51
    Jessica the game.
68. 3:52
    Jessica You knew those rules better than any of us.
69. 4:01
    Tutor Explaining the rules helped. Jessica knew the game and had
70. 4:04
    Tutor something to contribute. Winning isn't mentioned.
71. 4:08
    Roger Did you enjoy meeting my friends?
72. 4:11

    Tutor Two colleagues compare Maya's behaviour in different groups.
76. 4:23
    Tutor What does their conversation suggest?
77. 4:26
    Alice Maya's really come out of her shell at our team
78. 4:30
    Alice lunches.
79. 4:30
    Alice Is she happier at big networking events too?
80. 4:34
    George No, she still finds those uncomfortable.
81. 4:43
    Tutor Maya is more confident with her team. Her unease at large
82. 4:47
    Tutor events shows that this change doesn't apply everywhere.
83. 4:51
    Alice Maya's really come out of her shell at our team
84. 4:54
    Alice lunches.
85. 4:55

89. 5:09
    Jessica How can we help Leo come out of his shell?

91. 5:15
    Roger Sure. No pressure to join us.
92. 5:22

93. 5:26
    Tutor offers contact without requiring Leo to act more outgoing.
94. 5:31

    Tutor Complete this sentence aloud: I came out of my shell when...
98. 5:43
    Tutor You might mention a welcoming group or a shared interest. You
99. 5:47
    Tutor can invent a person if you'd prefer not to talk about yourself.
100. 5:57
     Tutor Does this mean talking constantly? No. A brief,
101. 6:01
     Tutor confident contribution may show the change. Is quietness
102. 6:05
     Tutor a problem? No, and we shouldn't assume a quiet person
103. 6:08
     Tutor is unhappy. Is the change permanent? Not necessarily.
104. 6:13
     Tutor Someone may feel comfortable with friends but reserved around
105. 6:16
     Tutor strangers.
106. 6:17

110. 6:32
     Tutor clearer evidence than a general comment about confidence.
