The problem is...I can't fake the fact that I really don't care about how they feel about the their work or the weather or their first job. Small talk is just so forced...which makes it uncomfortable.
Small talk is forced if that’s what you make it. I use small talk to be present and make a conscious effort to try and learn about said persons life. Small talk is 100% necessary if you wanna get to learn about somebody, embrace it
this response is so funny because the commenter says their problem with these questions is they don’t care about the answers and your response is basically “well if you just care about the answers!!!!!!” 😂 like, i don’t though. i just do not care what the answers are lol.
My advice is to work on that. The problem could be your not seeing their humanity. We are all very similar in the end and have a lot of the same challenges. Class and politics don’t change it that much. There is a cycle of life and that is something to relate to.
I read an article many years ago in Seventeen Magazine when I was in high school. It stated you can make more friends in two months by being interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you. Love this video! Excellent suggestions.

Topic: Health (who have some problems, maybe injury) and health of relatives (about their problems). Conversation often comes from politeness or compassion.
Hi Emma! I have taught Japanese students for over 35 years. In Japan, small talk is not common with strangers (as in a party). I remember one of my students telling me how excited she was, going to her first international party. The following day, I asked her how the party went, and she said "Not good." When I asked her why, she said, "No one talked to me." Of course, if she had tried STARTING a conversation, thinks could have turned out much differently. I am now once again, at the behest of another Japanese student, starting to teach the art of small talk, which you have so wonderfully captured on this video. I love your bright-eyed, friendly, personable and light approach to small talk. I couldn't stop watching you engage your audience with so much positivity and energy. I have assigned this video as homework for my Japanese student, and will use it in our next lesson. Two thumbs up. 👍👍Thank you so much, Emma !
I love that part of Japanese culture. Introverts are admired and small talk is not something required in social situations. In the U.S it seems the louder , chattier people in the room are the most envied.🤔
Hi Emma, thanks a million for this! I'm a Brazilian guy living in the US since 2014 and I've always hated small talks, mostly because, even though living for few years now, still don't speak well. But thanks to you and your videos, this is changing.
I agree. You gotta be a little brave and defensively joyful against strong rejection. I don't agree with Emma; It really takes being a little bit of an a hole, but still nice. If one can't spontaneously read and react amusingly, the other person's probably not having as much fun as they would be chilling alone. 😁
I never ever leave negative feedback on videos but there are so many questions you recommend which I consider rude and nosy especially in the “work” department. The weather is the very best.
In the dead of winter with no coat in the cold and snow standing on my head on glass shards I would watch her scraping paint in sweats and no makeup. Emma is THAT beautiful. Perfect facial features and a flawless complexion only add to her beauty. Her eyes and smile are THE best. My opinion only.

I's been so amazing to listen/watch this episode before meeting a someone new. I can't appreciate enough for your hard work by focusing students like us.
Hi Emma. This is absolutely a great way to practice real English. Yeas, I hope that you'll focus on discussing each category in the coming lessons. I know lots of vocabulary, but the problem is that I don't always know how to use each word naturally, that's why I extremely push for discussing each case separately.
Greetings,brilliant teacher...As job:I am a farmer,I am from Marrakesh...I like travelling...I am Muslim .I speak Arabic language French and 60% English...I will continue with your lessons my dear Emma teacher......
I love your blog, and I think you are an amazing teacher. I learned a lot from you. I have been watching your class for almost a year, and I can meet with people on a Daly basis and talk for hours. Thank you for your help, love you
I've used the questions you taught me to start a conversation with a lovely Hong kong girl and it's quite useful.That girl has become my girlfriend now.Thank you sooo much, Emma✧◡̈⃝︎
As a 15 year old girl, I am often put in the place of having to make small talk with a lot different teenagers. It’s pretty much always in a church setting (at my youth group) and I want to seem more,ya know understanding. Making small talk is like always the first step to making friends or developing new relationships with people I am meeting or wanting to get to know at church. I hate awkward silence but awkward small talk with a bunch of teenagers is um cringy for loss of better words. Thanks for the vid! Next time I am engaging in a conversation with a 13 year old boy (who probably doesn’t wear deodorant) I will definitely ask him what his line of work is or where he thinks i should travel to with my fiancé! (all jokes aside thanks for the vid, much love)
You are the best teacher ,ma'am I really applauded to your expression which has given to me a puissance to speaking English at confidently.I haven't any words to explained you ma'am your expression is sooo good.
I love this! Thanks for sharing Emma, this helps so much when I want to start a conversation with people I just met. I was always worried that I'd run out of topics.
Hello! SO I spent time in an infantry unit which deployed to Baghdad in 2p08, And I must admit that I had become quite reclusive in nature for some time after then. On top of communications progress, I can literally feel my confidence growing in enabling myself to "small talk," once again! I appreciate the topic tips! I look forward to practicing! BEST, Chris
One of the most interesting and informative lecture about everyday life ..the way you speaking or give a lecture is amazing and help us a lot to built our pronunciation better ..Wish you a happy life ..And waiting for more informative videos..Thanku Best wish from Pakistan 🇵🇰
True. If a bald middle aged white guy says "good morning" to a pretty woman, he's a creeper. If a 6', attractive, 6 $$$ figure guy says the same...she thinks about it all day and tells her friends. It's all so superficial...as is small talk.
This video is also very useful for the beginner who are willing to speak others in English. Conversations are the best way to practice Englishb and you have given the basic sentences how can we start to speak. You done job well and highly appreciate your contribution as always.😊
This is the first time that I am in your channel, and I am shockeddd, I appreciate your work, you are soooo positive and a very pleasant person, it’s very pleasant to hear your voice❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰 Kisses from Armenia🥰❤️
Hello Emma, personally speaking, I love your way of conversing with us with your precious knowledge and experience about English language. I really wanna learn to speak words with such a gentle tone and confidence that you present in your videos. Indeed, happy and motivated watching your videos. Wishing you a very happy new year in early.😊
One thing you didn't mention is that sometimes conversation starters can sound like the lead up to asking someone out on a date. It could be awkward if you're trying to get restaurant advice and the other person thinks you're making your move.
Hello Emma Learning English with you is the best of both worlds! This lesson is absolutely comfortable. I am about to talk to my Australian colleague at my office. Thanks a bunch for teaching me. I am grateful to have a teacher like you.😊❤️
Hy Ema, almost everyday I watch this video, it's a base for learn English, i read in out loud the subtitles and I'm decorating. You are gorgeous!! I love it.
The problem is...I can't fake the fact that I really don't care about how they feel about the their work or the weather or their first job. Small talk is just so forced...which makes it uncomfortable.

Spontaneity is key..if small talk sounds planned or structured, small talk becomes smaller...
I agree. You gotta be a little brave and defensively joyful against strong rejection.

Hi Emma. This is absolutely a great way to practice real English.

I loved to watch this video again and again and again maam emma about small talk. I'm just a little kinda shy person ma'am.
6:54 Bees don't bite, bees sting. so probably you should be asking " Have you ever stung by a bee ?"
You are right . Bees sting as well as scorpions.
Unfortunately we, teachers, don't know everything, even the native ones.
Chiara Carolina True but you guys always feel that you certainly do.
In australia they bite

If you're in the USA here's a #1 tip:
Be tall or attractive. If you're not one or the other be prepared to get hurt by society's behavior
True. If a bald middle aged white guy says "good morning" to a pretty woman, he's a creeper. If a 6', attractive, 6 $$$ figure guy says the same...she thinks about it all day and tells her friends. It's all so superficial...as is small talk.
This video is also very useful for the beginner who are willing to speak others in English. Conversations are the best way to practice Englishb and you have given the basic sentences how can we start to speak. You done job well and highly appreciate your contribution as always.😊
I am looking at this, because I have been asked to speak to French people to improve their English.
You’re a pretty teacher.

Wonderful, Thank you, dear Emma. God bless you
thanks for all your help and support that you provided to us . God bless you. have a happy life .
no matter what question you ask English native, the answer is always ' everything is fine, good or ok. :D
That’s just a wall that’s built in to most people who may be initially reserved. Break it down. How fine is fine? Can it be any better than fine?
One thing you didn't mention is that sometimes conversation starters can sound like the lead up to asking someone out on a date. It could be awkward if you're trying to get restaurant advice and the other person thinks you're making your move.
Great class!
