1
Hey, the teacher told us to open the book on page 10.
2
Really?
3
Did she say that?
4
Yes, she did.
5
Oh, the teacher needs some English lessons.
6
We don't say "open your books on page 10", we say "open your books to page 10". To?
7
We use "to" because it shows movement or direction.
8
book.
9
Opening at the specified page, if you go from one page to another,
10
we say turn to, flip to, or go to.
11
Ahem, as I was saying, open your books to page 10.
12
Oh, I heard it wrong.
13
Sorry.
14
Can I have paper?
15
Yes, that's not a problem.
16
Huh?
17
Where is it?
18
I need a paper to take notes.
19
Oh, I thought you were asking if you're allowed to use paper during the class.
20
If you say "Can I have paper?" without the article "a", it sounds like you're asking if you're allowed to have it.
21
Like asking for permission.
22
So I should say "Can I have a paper?" Do you want this?
23
No, I need a white paper to take notes.
24
I'm starting to get stressed." Then you should say a piece of paper.
25
Hi guys, welcome to my YouTube channel.
26
In this video, you'll learn English from common mistakes made at school while I explore the Gamma app.
27
These mistakes also apply to other contexts,
28
so make sure you watch this video until about an academic paper,
29
like research, an essay, or something like that.
30
When you say paper without an article before it, you're referring to the material itself, like the substance you write or print on.
31
For example, the printer needs some paper, or I need some paper to wrap this gift.
32
Wow, how did you make that?
33
Make?
34
Make the presentation?
35
I found out about gamma the perfect tool for creating presentations,
36
websites, social media and more and it's completely free.
37
I was talking about the movement with your hair.
38
How did you make that?
39
Oh, how did I do that? Do, yeah.
40
Use do in this case because do focuses on actions skills or tricks.
41
It's used for movements.
42
solutions or surprising results such as do your makeup,
43
do your homework, etc. Make is used when talking about products.
44
Food art, and even videos.
45
For example, make food, make a video, make a website, make a presentation,
46
and etc. You can also make a mess, make a decision, make fun of something, make someone angry, etc. And I flip my hair naturally.
47
I don't even pay attention to what I'm doing.
48
Nice!
49
You created that really quickly.
50
Gamma has this incredible AI feature.
51
You just tell it what you want.
52
For example, type a short sentence, paste some text, or upload a file like a PowerPoint, PDF, or even a website link.
53
Then, Gamma creates a presentation You can edit these cards,
54
add more, or change the design later.
55
It saves time and makes your slides look clean and professional.
56
It's really fast, the website is also fast, and it helps us save time.
57
Really?
58
You can both tell the AI to create for you or to create, for example, from the notes I have?
59
Not both.
60
You should say either in this case, since you used the conjunction OR.
61
create the slides for you, or you can create them from the notes you have.
62
Remember to use either when comparing two things and it always comes with OR.
63
For example, I prefer to either be fully relaxed or be very productive, nothing in between.
64
Or you can either stay home or go out.
65
Either plus or.
66
Okay, just a sec.
67
Teacher, can I go to the bathroom?
68
Yes, you can, but you may not.
69
Now it's time to pay attention to the homework.
70
What did I say wrong?
71
And please explain with slides because I want to learn how to create them.
72
In this case, I don't have any notes here, so I can't paste in text.
73
or import a file or url
74
so i will click generate now you have to select the
75
type of content you'd like to create it can be a presentation a website a document
76
or a social media post okay what's next
77
by teacher and using can when asking can i go to the bathroom what's right
78
and what's wrong you can select how many cards you want the style
79
and the language then click generate outline wait wait wait wait what's outline an outline is a general plan
80

81
topic then I can add extra cards or I can proceed to generate the slides.
82
Tadam!
83
Created!
84
Wow this looks very professional.
85
Yes they're really polished.
86
Polished?
87
Yeah polished means clean, to do with cultural context.
88
Teacher often functions as a respectful title across many cultures, conveying steam for the educator's role.
89
But in English -speaking countries, it's better to use "Ms" or "Mr" when referring to the teacher.
90
So I should say...
91
Miss Gogola?
92
Exactly! And she
93
but it's widely accepted and commonly used by native English speakers to request permission in informal or semi -formal settings.
94
While technically "can" is less formal than "may", it isn't usually perceived as impolite.
95
However, it seems that our teacher feels that she should be addressed formally, so she expects you to use me.
96
Nice!
97
You added videos to the slides!
98
Yes, I can add images, videos, social media links, GIFs, and QR codes.
99
I can search for a specific image on the web.
100
I can add icons and more.
101
I can even add a button for people that leads people to the page of my English course.
102
Look!
103
Oh, I can.. shhh, please!
104
Inside voices.
105
Inside voices?
106
This is an expression often used by teachers or parents to remind children not to shout or talk loudly,
107
especially when they're in a place where loud noise is not appropriate.
108
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
109
What's that button?
110
If you click this button, you can create diagrams like this one.
111
This is my favorite diagram.
112
It's called ribbon arrows.
113
Ribbon because this is a ribbon.
114
I can also change the colors to monochrome.
115
which means only one color or different shades of the same color.
116
I think there's a mosquito here.
117
A mosquito or fly, maybe.
118
We can hear the sound it makes.
119
It's probably a mosquito.
120
Mosquitoes are flying insects that bite humans and animals to suck and frequently land on food,
121
trash, and surfaces.
122
Oh, okay.
123
Yes, and you can use the AI to help your writing sound more engaging or to make the text more concise,
124
which means shorter without losing meaning.
125
Cool.
126
And you can also translate the content into other languages.
127
That's important.
128
You can also add a button with a website link to encourage clicks.
129
For example, it could say, "Join my course and take people directly to the signup page." Okay, you convinced me.
130
What's the website called?
131
It's GIMMA app, the tool that helps your presentations, websites, and documents stand out.
132

¿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.
