Creando lección...
1
Welcome back to another video guys.
2
Today we're going to be learning easy beginner English.
3
beautiful nature.
4
That's a yacht.
5
And over there, there is a couple taking photos.
6
This is the skeleton of a whale.
7
Right here, this part of the ice cream is called the cone.
8
We are in the shade right now.
9
The tree is giving us shade.
10
We're just sleeping.
11
Put your head in more.
12
Start the word count and let's go.
13
You can see here, this guy is riding his bicycle.
14
So this right here.
15
one this.
16
This side of the road is a bicycle path.
17
So this is just for bicycles and then that one is a one -way street.
18
One -way means it just goes that way.
19
Just goes that way.
20
That is a one -way street.
21
for the vehicles.
22
and also for motorcycles and stuff.
23
But yeah, you can see it just goes that way.
24
This is the hospital.
25
It's just one way.
26
And this is the hospital that apparently is very busy all the time, eh?
27
Yeah, the population has grown very fast and furious and they can't cope.
28
I feel like a lot of people moved to the mainland, right?
29
Yes, I'm sure accommodation is more expensive here.
30
Oh, the ice cream is right here.
31
Oh, it's closed.
32
We were going to eat ice cream right here, but they're closed.
33
We had it earlier.
34
Earlier in the week.
35
Yeah, earlier in the week.
36
So they said there was another one way down there.
37
But we have to go down there anyways to drop off this bag.
38
This right here, these are wetsuits.
39
This bag has wetsuits inside.
40
I think that's like some school activity or something going on over there.
41
Yep.
42
Right?
43
It looks like it.
44
I will have a look if I can see.
45
I think they're taking it down though.
46
It's fine.
47
Doesn't look that interesting.
48
And they're dismantling the things.
49
This is just providing us a little bit of shade.
50
And this is the pier.
51
And this is where boats come and you can get on, disembark or embark from here.
52
So the pier.
53
This is also where you get the taxi to go to Playa de las Salimones, over there.
54
So this is where you get boat taxis to different islands or different locations on this island.
55
But you get it from here, from this pier.
56
- Yeah, so these are all numbered.
57
One, three.
58
That over there is a dock, but this water is so blue.
59
It's like really nice.
60
This reminds me of water in a...
61
Bam. So.
62
lines.
63
You could literally sit on a bench right beside a sea lion.
64
Look at those guys.
65
Just sleeping.
66
Right under this bench.
67
So I mean, I guess if you're not careful, you might accidentally step on a sea lion here.
68
Although I would not recommend that because I think they might bite you because they're playful.
69
and when I was doing snorkeling, they would come and play around you and maybe give you a little nibble, a little.. small.
70
Soft bite.
71
All of these boats here, all of these boats are all anchored.
72
All these boats are anchored in the water here.
73
There's the.. that's a ferry.
74
So you see the seats inside there?
75
So they go from island to island, between islands.
76
So that's a ferry.
77
It doesn't look like a traditional big ferry, but that's...
78
No, these.. these ferries are just small.
79
And back there you have the yachts.
80
So that's a yacht.
81
That bigger ship is a yacht.
82
And there are also some cruise ships around here.
83
That could fit like a hundred people.
84
I think a hundred is the max you can have here.
85
person cruise ship.
86
Yeah, and sorry about my beard.
87
I need to shave.
88
I haven't shaved in a while.
89
I'll do that tonight or today or tomorrow morning.
90
Yeah, right now we are just sitting on this pier.
91
Oh, these people are embarking.
92
They are embarking on that taxi.
93
So that right there is a boat taxi.
94
So they are gonna embark and go somewhere.
95
I'm not really sure where.
96
- They also call that a water taxi.
97
- But yeah, they're walking down that platform.
98
They're walking down it into the boat taxi.
99
So here you can see the shoreline.
100
You can see the shoreline.
101
And this shoreline is very rocky.
102
There's not really a beach or anything.
103
Very rocky shoreline.
104
But I think there is a beach we can go to, right?
105
That white white sand beach.
106
Yeah, we're going to do that probably tomorrow when the weather is a little bit better.
107
But this guy is huge
108
Here there are some more sea lions only one because he's so big it looks like two That is a big boy.
109
Yeah, I thought it was two two, but it's only one big
110
Big thing about these sea lions is
111
that these sea lions are not scared of people like they're
112
not scared Actually most of the animals are not on the call close and they won't even do anything.
113
Look it's got nails you see.
114
You see the nails on his flipper.
115
But yeah this is a big boy.
116
And they actually poop like a dog.
117
Pretty much all the animals in the Galapagos are not scared of humans.
118
They are not scared of humans.
119
This is very hot.
120
So now I'm going to apply some sunscreen.
121
It's Korean.
122
Yeah.
123
Korean sunscreen.
124
My face is going to burn.
125
And you can tell I don't know if you can You can't tell on camera, but I am very tan right now.
126
My face at least is very tan.
127
I'm gonna apply this Korean sunscreen.
128
Where did you get it from?
129
From my favorite son, the one that loves Korea, South Korea, obviously.
130
And who is that?
131
It's the one that recently vacationed with me.
132
Recently or current?
133
Well, it's currently.
134
It's the one that is currently on vacation with me.
135
good.
136
You should bring me some more when you come home.
137
I usually hate putting on sunscreen.
138
No, me too.
139
I'm just gonna take out my big hat because it's kind of sunny.
140
Go ahead.
141
Now she's taking out her hat from her bag.
142
So this is a sun hat.
143
You need it.
144
Now let's go drop this off.
145
The wetsuits.
146
Tighten this.
147
I'm gonna tighten this so it doesn't come off.
148
So now we're in a souvenir shop.
149
I think we're gonna buy a souvenir.
150
This bird right here is the blue -footed booby.
151
A very famous bird from the Galapagos.
152
And these right here are the giant tortoises.
153
This right here is a marine iguana, this is a land iguana, boobies, flamingo, sea lion, iguana, penguin, giant tortoise, crab, hammerhead shark.
154
So we're in another souvenir shop looking for these right here.
155
These are key chains.
156
All of these are keychains.
157
These are all the different types of animals you can find in the Galapagos.
158
all of these.
159
All right, let me show you guys something real quick because I'm literally using today's sponsor, Filmora15, to edit this video right now.
160
I'll show you three new tools I actually used today and you'll see the difference on my travel footage.
161
Let's go.
162
You know when a beautiful clip ends too fast and the moment feels rushed.
163
Watch this.
164
I hit AI extend and Phil Moore stretches the shot so it keeps breathing naturally.
165
Now the scene feels cinematic instead of jumpy.
166
And I could let the English line sit so you can actually understand it.
167
Next is the pen tool.
168
This one is perfect for travel, storytelling and teaching.
169
I can draw routes, circles, arrows, anything right in the video.
170
So when I say a word like ocean, boat, or beach you see exactly what I mean.
171
Last one animated charts.
172
I drop the numbers in and Filmora turns it into a clean animated chart in seconds.
173
It's a quick way to add info without killing the travel vibe.
174
If I've got a couple seconds, Smart Cutout lets me isolate a subject fast for teaching clarity and overlays.
175
If you want to edit like this, get started with Filmora15 today using the link in my description.
176
Thank you, Filmora.
177
We're sponsoring today's video.
178
- You like this?
179
It's the traditional color.
180
- Yeah, I like this color.
181
It says, National Park of Guelph -Gos
182
85 US dollars which is kind of a lot for this pants But it's pretty thin.
183
You can roll it up like small.
184
It doesn't wrinkle either.
185
It's already wrinkled.
186
Yeah.
187
I think it's a great traveling fan.
188
So you might be a little bit...
189
That's what I was thinking.
190
Yeah.
191
But you might be a little bit cold.
192
Like traveling specifically for like stuff like this where you only want one bag
193
or something and then you're gonna wear clothes a lot.
194
And you want everything light like light fans.
195
Yeah something like this is nice.
196
And then a t -shirt to match it.
197
And it's also a different color.
198
But I like this beige.
199
This color is beige.
200
Yeah, but this is going to be the one that you want.
201
I would get the beige, yeah.
202
Hi, Mark Boogie's.
203
So we are inside another souvenir shop here.
204
And these are all hand woven.
205
So you can see weaving.
206
These are all woven by hand.
207
See these ones look good.
208
These designs.
209
They put effort.
210
into these designs.
211
Like, I think this looks like a Like a rock.
212
Oh, açaí?
213
That's like that Brazilian smoothie thing.
214
It's kind of like a smoothie.
215
Acai bowl.
216
Let's just go and check the menu.
217
It's like a thick berry smoothie, but it's always super expensive.
218
Oh, let's go and check the...
219
Acai bowl.
220
Let's go check the menu.
221
Okay, let's go.
222
Now we're going to cross the street.
223
Once there are no vehicles, let's cross the street.
224
9 .50, you got extra wine.
225
Yeah.
226
Totally, it's expensive.
227
Like granola.
228
$10.
229
It's like this berry that they pick in like these really tall trees in Brazil
230
and it's like super popular in America now.
231
Hmm.
232
So these are the different ice cream flavors.
233
Okay, so now we are having ice cream.
234
This right here, this part of the ice cream is called the cone and that is the ice cream.
235
So this is an ice cream cone.
236
And my mom also got one.
237
What flavor did you get, mom?
238
I have the fruit, the sour sauce.
239
So she got sour sauce and I got, I guess, mixed berry with yogurt.
240
That's what I got.
241
But it's very good.
242
So where are we headed to right now, mom?
243
We're heading to the Charles Darwin Station.
244
- Research station, I guess.
245
- Charles Darwin Research Station.
246
There are also two beaches over here.
247
One is called the Rat Beach, isn't it?
248
Ratoneras, yeah.
249
Yeah, so we're heading to the rat beach.
250
This is a police vehicle.
251
You could call it like a police cruiser.
252
in English or you just call it a police car.
253
And we're walking on the side here, on the sidewalk.
254
It is pretty hot today and it's humid since we are so close to the water.
255
So it is pretty humid.
256
But the path is actually kind of nice.
257
Like, look at this.
258
Look at the way they cut these trees.
259
It's an umbrella.
260
It's like this tomorrow.
261
We're going to go to Tortuga Bay.
262
We're going to pack some snacks and lunch.
263
We're going to make a sandwich or something and then we'll go and hang out there.
264
Oh yeah.
265
This is so beautiful that beach.
266
So, so beautiful.
267
Tortuga Bay?
268
Is that like the...
269
White.
270
Super white beach?
271
Big, huge beach.
272
And you know what all that white stuff is?
273
Not sand.
274
You know what it is?
275
It's poo -poo.
276
Yep, it's fish poop.
277
All the sand on the beach is fish poop from a parrotfish.
278
Parrotfish.
279
We are in the shade right now.
280
The tree is giving us shade and now we're not in the shade anymore.
281
So we are in the sun.
282
We're in the sun and that is the shade.
283
Thank you.
284
So we just got to the beach.
285
the entrance to the beach, And now we're going to walk down this path, but first, I'm gonna take my shoes off. and carry them.
286
So I'm going to carry my sandals.
287
Look at these finches.
288
I think we've birded out.
289
This is the path to the beach.
290
And this is just where you park your bicycles. because No bikes allowed.
291
Oh yeah, you can see the beach there.
292
and all this right here guys, all this along here.
293
That is volcanic rock.
294
volcanic rock.
295
You got to be careful because you might stub your toe.
296
This is stubbing your toe.
297
when you hit your toe like bah.
298
That is stubbing your toe usually like that.
299
and stubbing your toe a lot so you don't want to stub your toe.
300
But this is the beach.
301
Thank you.
302
I'll be honest, not too much of a beach.
303
A little small.
304
Compare today's with tomorrow's.
305
Yeah, so remember this beach guys.
306
We'll see another beach tomorrow, but this beach to me is very rocky.
307
The beach is very rocky. and very small.
308
Of course, I don't think we're going to swim here.
309
because I don't even have my swim trunks on.
310
Right now we're at the Charles Darwin Research Station.
311
Charles Darwin.
312
So if you didn't know Charles Darwin came here to the Galapagos Islands.
313
And this is the Charles Darwin Foundation as well.
314
Is this him?
315
Thank you.
316
And what is Charles Darwin famous for?
317
For his theory on evolution.
318
Yeah, his theory of evolution.
319
The Theory of Evolution, Charles Darwin.
320
That is what he is famous for.
321
So these are the Tortoise shells.
322
I guess those ones are older?
323
Please do not touch.
324
How old is this one?
325
Okay, so there are two tortoises.
326
The giant tortoise.
327
all from different volcanoes.
328
around 6 ,300 or 6 ,300 And then this one 2600 or 2600.
329
Oh, and number one?
330
He's 120 plus years old.
331
that one This one, there are only 250.
332
making it critically endangered.
333
because there are only 250.
334
So this one is extinct.
335
Thank you.
336
That means there are no more.
337
of these tortoises.
338
So this is what they look like and that is a map of all the tortoises in the Galapagos archipelago.
339
That's what they look like when they hatch.
340
Kind of cute.
341
What bone is this?
342
This is, oh a sperm whale sperm whale jaws.
343
It's huge.
344
Thank you.
345
So I guess it's this part right here.
346
Did you know that Darwin and Wolf Island have the largest concentration of sharks on the planet?
347
So Darwin and Wolf.
348
We saw 20.
349
20 of that largest concentration.
350
Yeah.
351
And we made it out alive.
352
Yeah.
353
This is a hammerhead shark.
354
This is a tiger shark.
355
Where's Wolf?
356
Wolf is one of these, huh?
357
I think there's smaller islands right here.
358
Those right here.
359
They're small.
360
I saw 20 sharks.
361
20 sharks when we were snorkeling.
362
They're harmless though, these sharks don't attack you, but I saw 20.
363
In the water.
364
So this is the skeleton of...
365
what is this?
366
Some sort of whale.
367
This is the skeleton of a whale.
368
So the skeleton of a whale or the bones of a whale.
369
So we did this whole loop.
370
- We were there.
371
And then we did this and then we were dropped off there.
372
This is the shark we saw 20 of.
373
That right there is the blue -footed booby.
374
Birds This is the spine.
375
The spine.
376
of a dolphin it looks like.
377
the spine of a dolphin.
378
and then just a bunch of other animal things.
379
Very cool.
380
Oh, and here's like the full skeleton of an owl.
381
Oh no. Full skeleton of a blue -footed booby.
382
And then this is the skeleton of an owl.
383
And that is an owl.
384
So you have the long -necked tortoise, the short -necked tortoise, and then the sea turtle.
385
And then all their shells.
386
Iguona.
387
It's a marine Iguona.
388
That is a big, that's a big shell though.
389
Charles Darwin.
390
Perhaps I'm Charles Darwin.
391
Put your head in more.
392
More.
393
That's the max.
394
Oh, your head's too fat.
395
Charles Darwin looks like me by the looks of it.
396
Okay, so we're headed to the second beach.
397
the door Rat Beach.
398
So we're headed to the rat beach.
399
Um, Not sure why they call it the rat beach.
400
I hope it's not because it's filled with rats, because they do control rats here in the Galapagos.
401
They try to kill all the rats so they have rat control because they are bad for the animals.
402
I don't think this is it.
403
I think it's more down there.
404
Yeah, a little bit more down.
405
It's just to see the iguanas.
406
This is a beach.
407
This is the beach.
408
Look at this beautiful view.
409
The waves back there are crashing against these rocks here.
410
These are all volcanic rocks.
411
It's a little overcast today.
412
So there are a lot of clouds in the sky.
413
A lot of clouds in the sky.
414
but one benefit of all the clouds in the sky is that it's not too sunny.
415
not too sunny so that, you know, we don't burn our face and our skin. and anything.
416
I've already burned.
417
Same with my mom, her shoulders. are burned.
418
One benefit.
419
And it's also not too hot, I'm not sweating like, oh sweating a lot. but uh...
420
Let's continue to the rat beach, eh?
421
Your shoulders are burned.
422
There are a couple of kids surfing over there in the water.
423
And over there, there is a couple taking photos maybe anniversary photos or wedding photos or something.
424
Okay guys, we just got back to our hotel room and I'm pretty tired we were walking for about Four hours.
425
I think now we're just gonna relax
426
and then go out at night to the night market
427
and get some food at night okay so we are now out it's like 6 p .m
428
and we're just gonna grab a quick bite to eat i'm pretty hungry oh I see meat on a stick over there.
429
The guy is cooking up some meat on a stick.
430
Maybe that will be the dessert when we come back.
431
Yeah, but anyways, we're gonna get some food now.
432
I'm not really sure what we're gonna eat.
433
I usually do like eating meat on a stick and they have my meat on a stick, but that's also the first place we saw.
434
So we're just gonna keep on walking and see what else there is.
435
Yeah, just so you know, it will be cheaper here because this is all residential area.
436
Yeah, this is a This is where the locals are.
437
- I have empanadas here.
438
I already checked out the empanadas here to the left.
439
And then the guy in that car, he was selling it to me, does.
440
But I think it's only sweet ones.
441
- That's fine.
442
- I wanted to bring a bag.
443
You want to buy some?
444
- Yeah.
445
- Take with us?
446
- Of course.
447
- Tomorrow or to eat it for breakfast?
448
This guy here on the left.
449
- Breakfast.
450
- Should we buy some now?
451
- Buy some after, he should still be there.
452
He's just gonna eat quickly.
453
Yeah, I don't want to stay here.
454
I'm kind of tired.
455
Me too, I woke up at 5 :00 a .m.
456
I know, and seven days of snorkeling and hiking.
457
And then you added four more.
458
I can do it.
459
So I guess this is a popular street where you can eat.
460
That side is busier because they catch the guys as they turn the corner.
461
We've eaten here a long time ago.
462
Seafood.
463
Okay, so now we're...
464
eating dinner here.
465
Right, Mom?
466
Yes, I'm having Uh...
467
- What am I having?
468
- Some seafood soup.
469
She's having seafood soup.
470
- Seafood, like seafood soup.
471
- And I'm having beef soup.
472
- A beef soup.
473
- And look at our view here.
474
Nice view.
475
What do you have there?

¿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.
