Now, the assistants are going to invite each other out.

59
You decide if you want to go or not, but be polite.
60
Now, Isabel and Susan will start.
61

71
No, Susan, I'm just joking.
72
You are a good cook and I will be there.
73
Good job, all of you.
74
All right, now, let's talk about the future.
75
We're going to talk about the future.
76
Now, on your screen, there's a review of the words that we use for the future.
77
Now, the first one is the present continuous.
78
So, you see, statement, negative, and question.
79
So, he's visiting friends on the weekend.
80
He isn't visiting friends on the weekend.
81
Is he visiting friends on the weekend?
82
This is very close future.
83
We're having a party on Friday.
84
We aren't having a party on Friday.
85
Are we having a party on Friday?
86
Okay, the next one is with be going to.
87
And remember that the be changes.
88
And after to, we have to have a verb.
89
I'm going to eat dinner at home.
90
I'm not going to eat dinner at home.
91
Am I going to eat dinner at home?
92
She's going to buy a new car.
93
She isn't going to buy a new car.
94
Is she going to buy a new car?
95
And then with will.
96
We will see you tomorrow.
97
We won't see you tomorrow.
98
Will we see you tomorrow?
99
They will be here soon.
100
They won't be here soon.
101
Will they be here soon?
102
Okay, so let me make some room here on the board,
103
and we can talk about some of the different ways that we talk about the future.
104
Now, present continuous is used for very close future.
105
Today, tomorrow, maybe on the weekend, okay?
106
So it's very close future.
107
So for example, I'm going to London tomorrow, okay?
108
It's very close future.
109
My mother is cooking dinner tonight.
110
My mother is cooking dinner tonight.
111
Again, it's very close future, okay?
112
So present continuous can be used for very close future.
113
Now, another way to talk about the future, so let's say present continuous here, and we'll say be going to here.
114
Now, with be going to, you have be, going, to, and then the verb.
115
So remember these three parts it shows that a decision
116
or an idea was made about something we want to do in the future
117
so I decided now about the future
118
so she's going to buy a new coat for the winter
119
this is her decision she's going to buy a new coat for the winter
120
or of course negative she's not going to buy a new coat for the winter Okay?
121
So she's going to buy a new coat for the winter.
122
She's not going to buy a new coat for the winter.
123
Her decision now for the future.
124
We also use this for predicting.
125
We think this is going to happen and we think pretty sure.
126
So for example, look at the dark clouds.
127
It's going to rain.
128
Look at the dark clouds it's going to rain.
129
So I think it's going to rain.
130
I studied hard.
131
I'm going to get a good grade.
132
This is my prediction.
133
I studied hard.
134
I'm going to get a good grade.
135
And for football fans, look at the ball.
136
It's going to go into the goal.
137
This is my prediction.
138
Look at the ball it's going to go into the goal now let me make some more room
139
and we'll talk about will now after will you always have to have a verb
140
and will doesn't change so it's kind of easy okay
141
so here's will now with will we can talk about things
142
that we know are going to happen these are facts the film will start at 8 p .m.
143
The film will start at 8 p .m.
144
This is a fact I know it.
145
Now we can also use will to predict the future and to talk about our opinion about the future, what we think is going to happen.
146
So, it was hot yesterday, it'll be hot today.
147
It was hot yesterday, it'll be hot today.
148
This is my prediction about the future.
149
We had too much ice cream, we'll get stomachache.
150
Okay, now, let's practice.
151
Now, with the assistants, I'm going to ask them what they will be doing, what they will do in five years.
152
So, you think too, what will you do in five years?
153
So, let's start with Isabel.
154

155

Gramática en este vídeo
Las estructuras que más usa el hablante, con las palabras exactas del vídeo:
| Estructura | En el vídeo |
|---|---|
| Futuro con “going to” be going to + verbo — un plan o algo que se ve venir | we're going to talk · are going to invite · I'm going to eat |
| Futuro con “will” will + verbo — una decisión, una promesa o una predicción | we'll look · I'll be · will start |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — algo que ocurre ahora o en estos días | is cooking · am cooking · I'm just joking |
| Obligación: must / have to / need to decir que algo es necesario | have to say · have to have |
Pronunciación a tener en cuenta
El hablante usa 48 contracciones y formas reducidas, como I'm, I'd, we'll. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.
- Los sonidos de “sh” y “zh”: prediction /pɹɪˈdɪkʃən/, casual /ˈkæʒ(u)əl/, invitation /ɪnvɪˈteɪʃən/
- Palabras largas — cuida el acento: continuous /kənˈtɪn.juː.əs/, invitation /ɪnvɪˈteɪʃən/
Sonidos difíciles para hispanohablantes:
- s + consonante al inicio — sin añadir una “e” delante: swim /swɪm/, stomachache /ˈstʌməkˌeɪk/
- /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: invite /ɪnˈvaɪt/, verb /vɝb/, invitation /ɪnvɪˈteɪʃən/
Cómo practicar con este vídeo
- Escucha el vídeo entero una vez sin hablar y anota las palabras que no conoces.
- Haz shadowing frase por frase a velocidad normal, repitiendo cada una hasta que tu ritmo coincida con el del hablante.
- Grábate y compara con el original, prestando atención a palabras como invite, formal, coat.
¿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.
