1
Have you always wanted to learn a new language?
2
You probably have your own reason for wanting to learn,
3
but there are huge benefits to being bilingual that you might not know about.
4
In this video, I'll introduce a few of them.
5
Here are some reasons why you should learn a new language.
6
Number one, you become smarter.
7
Studies show that learning a new language improves your focus and memory.
8
It improves your decision making,
9
you score higher on intelligence tests,
10
and you're less likely to be swayed by propaganda.
11
Number two, you make more friends.
12
Because you get to communicate with more people,
13
you can meet more people and make more friends.
14
This will help you get more opportunities, like jobs.
15
Number three, find love.
16
The more people you meet,
17
the more opportunities you have of finding that special someone.
18
Number four, you can travel with ease.
19
Simply because you can and express yourself confidently in another language.
20
Catching a cab, ordering food,
21
and getting around will never be a problem.
22
Number five, you're more open-minded and feel more empathy.
23
Because a new language puts you in another culture's shoes.
24
When you can speak in another language,
25
you see the world the way that the native speakers do.
26
In fact, when some bilinguals switch from one language to another,
27
they also switch personalities and express themselves differently.
28
For example, people tend to feel more direct and assertive when speaking English and more polite when speaking Japanese.
29
So this allows you to understand others' worldviews and connect with people on a deeper level.
30
6. You delay the mental effects of aging.
31
By 4 or 5 years.
32
Learning and mastering another language sharpens your brain and increases the amount of grey matter,
33
which helps delay dementia.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
