Hello and welcome back.
10
Today we are going to practice talking about something we all do every single day,
11
our daily routine.
12
This is a wonderful topic for beginners.
13
We will listen, learn, and speak together.
14
Let's start by just listening.
15
Here is my story, my simple daily routine.
16
My day begins early.
17
I wake up with the sunlight.
18
I stretch my arms and get out of bed.
19
First, I go to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth.
20
The cold water helps me feel awake.
21
Then, I get dressed in comfortable clothes.
22
Next, I walk to the kitchen.
23
I love the quiet of the morning.
24
I make a warm cup of tea and a simple breakfast.
25
I often have eggs or some fruit.
26
I eat my breakfast and look out the window watching the birds.
27
After I clean my dishes,
28
I get ready for my day.
29
I might go for a short walk in the fresh air.
30
Or, if I have errands,
31
I walk to the local market.
32
I enjoy seeing my neighbors and saying good morning.
33
I come home and spend my morning reading a book or writing in my journal.
34
I find it very peaceful.
35
At noon, I stop to make a healthy lunch.
36
I like to prepare my food myself.
37
In the afternoon, I often do chores around the house.
38
I water my plants or I tidy up the rooms.
39
I find it satisfying to have a clean and organized home.
40
Sometimes, I meet a friend for a conversation and a cup of coffee.
41
As the evening comes, I start to make dinner.
42
I enjoy cooking.
43
The smell of food fills my home.
44
After dinner, I wash the dishes and put everything away.
45
My evenings are for relaxing.
46
I might listen to soft music.
47
I often read more of my book,
48
or I just sit and think about my day.
49
I feel grateful for the simple things.
50
When I feel tired, I get ready for bed.
51
I brush my teeth again and change into my pajamas.
52
I turn off the light,
53
close my eyes, and fall asleep easily,
54
ready for a new day tomorrow.
55
Okay, wonderful listening.
56
Now it's your turn to practice.
57
We will go sentence by sentence.
58
I will say a line,
59
and then you will have time to repeat it out loud.
60
Copy my voice.
61
Copy my rhythm.

¿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.
