I’m back again!

What’s your name honey?

I’m Joe, I teach middle school band!

Connie go for it!

Today started out as the best day of my life.

Back here tonight, First show’s at 7:00.

yes! Whoo-hoo!

You know what that’s gonna say? Joe Gardner!

I did it. I got the gig.

Must have been sudden for you.

Soul is an American fantasy comedy-drama film produced by Pixar animation studios and released by Walt Disney pictures!

Joe Gardner is a middle school music teacher who seeks to reunite his soul and his body after they are accidentally separated, just before his big break as a jazz musician!

To me, the most wonderful fact about this film is that Soul is the first Pixar film to feature an African-American protagonist.

And did you guys know that Keyhan Kalhor, an Iraninan musician, was one of the music advisors of this film?

BTW You can watch this film on Zabanshenas app, so click on Zoom, go through the movies, and find “Soul”!

In this video, we’re gonna watch a short part of the film together, and as usual, we’re gonna go through the words and expressions!

In this part, by the time Joe had gotten frustrated by his slothful students, Principal Arroyo interrupted his class…

Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Gardner.

You do my ears a favor.

Hey…

Not you, though, you’re good!

He’s not

What can I do for you, Principal Arroyo?

I wanted to deliver the good news personally.

No more part time for you.

You’re now our full-time band teacher.

Job security. Medical insurance. Pension.

Well, that’s, um, great!

Welcome to the M.S.70 family, Joe Permanently.

Thanks.

You do my ears a favor.

To do someone a favor means to do a kind and helpful act for someone!

since joe was putting up with his students, the principal’s interruption was a great help!

You’re now our full-time band teacher. Job security. Medical insurance. Pension.

You know, a full-time job has more advantages than a part-time job!

Job security.

People have job security, and it means that their job is fixed and secure.

Medical insurance.

They also have medical (or health) insurance which is a type of insurance coverage that typically pays for medical, surgical, and prescription drugs expenses.

Pension.

People with full-time jobs are pensioned off from that organization they’re working for!

And pension is a regular payment made during a person’s retirement.

Permanently.

A full-time job is a permanent job

I mean it’s not temporary or changing!

After Joe delivers the good news to his mom, she becomes very happy that after all those years her prayers have been answered!

But, is joe happy as well?

you’re going to tell them yes, right?

Don’t worry, Mom, I got a plan.

you always got a plan! Maybe you need to have a backup plan, too, for when your plan falls through.

a backup plan never hurts,

Joey, we didn’t struggle giving you an education, so you could be a middle-aged man, washing your underwear in my shop!

Just think, playing music will finally be your real career.

So you’re going to tell them yes, right?

Maybe you need to have a backup plan, too,

His mom believes that he always got a plan and he needs to have a backup plan after all!

Backup plan is an extra plan which is as reliable as the original one!

We all make a backup of any important files we have on our computers.

for when your plan falls through.

Fall through is a phrasal verb which means to stop or fail in a sudden way.

His mom is glad that music will finally be Joe’s real job!

But after one of his old students calls him… things changed… !

Hello

How you been, Mr G?

Uh, it’s Curley. Lamont. Lamont Baker.

Hey, Curley! Hey, good to hear your voice, man.

Uh, Listen. You can call me Joe now, Curley. I’m not your teacher anymore.

Oh, okay, Mr Gardner.

Hey, Look, I’m the new drummer in the Dorothea Williams Quartet and we’re kicking off our tour with a show at the Half Note tonight.

Dorothea Williams? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?

Congratulations man. Wow!

I would die a happy man if I could perform with Dorothea Williams

Oh, well, this could be a lucky day.

we’re kicking off our tour with a show at the Half Note tonight.

To kick off is a phrasal verb which means to start out, to begin!

For example, this film kicks off with joe’s frustration by his students!

One, two, three, four. Stay on the beat. Two, three, four.

Wow! I would die a happy man if I could perform with Dorothea Williams

I would die a happy person If I could do bla bla

You can use this sentence when you’re talking about one of your greatest dreams!

For example, I would die a happy person If I could play more than 6 musical instruments!

ok

That’s all for today!

Let me know if you like me making more videos like this!
