15

16
Okay.
17
I'm looking for a job.
18
Okay.
19
Because last year I graduated from Sunggyungan University.
20
Okay.
21
And I'm looking for a job recently,
22
but the market in Korea is not that good right now,
23
so I don't have any job right now.
24
Understandable.
25
What did you study in university?
26
My major is psychology and I majored psychology
27
because I wanted to be a profiler before
28
because I'm a big fan of Sherlock Holmes but then it was different from what I thought.
29
I regret it.
30
Good
31
and what is your hometown? my hometown my hometown is in
32
Korea Changwon yeah I was born there can you tell me about Changwon?
33
Changwon is a place next to Busan so people are more
34
the Busan is more popular than Changwon however Changwon is popular with the cherry blossom.
35
You know, there's a very long trail road full of cherry blossom during summer, during spring.
36
Yeah.
37
Okay, sounds like a nice place.
38
And what do you like to do in your free time?
39
Free time?
40
I like to watch Netflix and listen to a lot of music.
41
What kind of music do you like?
42
I like hip-hop.
43
Yeah, I like hip-hop.
44
All right, now we're going to talk about clothes.
45
Oh, yeah.
46
What's your favorite color of clothes?
47
My favorite color is green because it suits me a lot and I like the color of green because
48
I like nature and green is a color of nature.
49
So it's my favorite color.
50
And what kind of clothes do you never wear?
51
Never?
52
Black and white clothes.
53
Okay.
54
Like mix of black and white because I like colors a lot so if there is no color in it,
55
I don't like cat.
56
Okay.
57
Yeah.
58
And what kind of clothes do you usually wear?
59
I usually, uh, brown or green.
60
Yeah.
61
As I said earlier, I like nature.
62
So, and brown and green is a color of nature.
63
So, I really like those colors.
64
Okay.
65
Maybe there's one more question.
66
Do you wear the same style of clothes on a weekday and a weekend?
67
It doesn't depend on weekdays or weekends because it depends on whom I meet.
68
Like if I'm meeting a person who's much older than me then I will wear more polite clothes
69
but if I'm meeting friends that are younger or about the same age with me,
70
then I wear some kind of like a hip-hop clothes.
71
All right, good.
72
Very nice start.
73
Now we can move on to part two.
74
So in part two, you get a topic and you get one minute to prepare.
75
This is your topic.
76
You can take notes to prepare or any way that you would like.
77
Here's a pencil.
78
Just set a timer and in a minute we can start.
79
Okay, and that is a minute.
80
So, in this part you're going to describe an energetic person you know and you want to say who the person is,
81
how you know this person,
82
why you think they are energetic and explain how you feel about this person.
83
Are you ready?
84
Yeah.
85
All right So the energetic person that I know is Tony Stark
86
Though I know Tony Stark from the movie called Iron Man There are series of Iron Man one two three,
87
but I'm a big fan of Tony Stark in the movie
88
The reason why I think Tony Stark is energetic is first of all he is
89
He I saw him dancing while he's working and I think it's really hard to dance and enjoy what he's
90
enjoy his work when it comes to
91
Like making money So I thought he's very energetic
92
and second of all I consider him energetic when he's dealing with the villains
93
like I never saw him being depressed or very very how to say sad about what when the villains were
94
villains for
95
Overtaking him so I thought he I'd consider him as energetic and
96
What I feel about him is that he's very confident about himself and he's very cool and very independent person Yeah Cool
97
Just a couple of follow-ups about Tony Stark.
98
Do you know any other movies or shows that he has been in besides Iron Man?
99
I've never seen him in any other movies other than Avengers or Iron Man.
100
Avengers and Iron Man, okay.
101
What kind of clothes does he usually wear?
102
Suits.
103
Suits?
104
Like a business suit?
105
Yeah, business suits.
106
Is he a sharp dresser, a good dresser?
107
He's a good.. oh no, he doesn't wear suits.
108
He wears jeans and t-shirts.
109
Okay, casual clothes.
110
Yeah.
111
Okay, good, good.
112
All right, we can move on to part three.
113
First question.
114
What kinds of jobs need a lot of physical work?
115
For me, I think jobs such as cameraman needs a lot of physical work
116
because what I know about camera is that it's really heavy.
117
I thought, I heard it's about five kilograms,
118
but they're holding it on their shoulders for about 12 hours,
119
at least 12 hours, I think that requires a lot of physical work.
120
Sure.
121
And what's the difference between the payment for physical work and that for brain work?
122
I think brain work should be paid more than the physical work
123
because brain work um requires a lot of time to be
124
um how to say uh professional in the job field however
125
physical work is doesn't really take a lot of time to be professional in that work field so
126
why does it not take as much time um
127
because for the physical work if they go to gym and work for for a month,
128
workout for a month, they can be very strong and get a lot of muscles.
129
But the brain work, they require a lot of,
130
at least one year, one year to study in the field.
131
For example, for me, I studied for,
132
I would say, three years,
133
three years, three years, about 12 years.
134
I studied 12 years.
135
So I think it is more valuable than the physical work.
136
Yeah.
137
And can physical workers receive higher salaries in the future?
138
In the future?
139
Maybe.
140
Maybe about like maybe 70 percent.
141
I'm 70 percent sure because recently there is a digital transformation going on very fast.
142
So the AI can be more useful in the future than human's brain.
143
So I think in the future maybe physical work can be more paid off.
144
And do you think machines could replace human workers in the future?
145
Not all of them, but maybe 50 percent.
146
For example, like the work such as that requires creativity,
147
that then robots cannot replace humans.
148
However, if it's not the creativity per se,
149
if it comes to such as like Excel or typing,
150
just like simple works, then robots can replace humans.
151
Okay.
152
Yeah.
153
All right, really nicely done.
154
We've come to the end.
155
Oh, really?
156
Come to the end.
157
Okay.
158
So I think you did a really nice job there.
159
So now we can go into some of the things to work on.
160
And remember the IELTS is scored on four categories.
161
So there's fluency and coherence,
162
there's pronunciation, then there's vocabulary and grammar.
163
In terms of both fluency and pronunciation,
164
you really have no problems.
165
You speak with with only natural pauses occasionally as you're looking for a word
166
and your pronunciation of single words is very good and your your sentences have a rhythm.
167
So both of those categories are really good.
168
In terms of vocabulary and grammar it's also really good I was writing down a lot
169
but there's nothing to worry about but those would be the two areas to
170
if you wanted to move up at all
171
and we can take a look at a couple of a
172
couple of things to think about there is there's not one single error
173
because you did really well in the test it's a little small thing here
174
and a small thing there one part in in part one
175
when you were talking about your studying you switched a little bit back
176
and forth between the present and the past tense it was mostly in the past tense
177
and then a few verbs there was a few there was an is
178
but it's important in those in those questions about the past
179
to keep all of your verbs in the past tense
180
so keep on that keep keeping in mind of
181
that there were small things about subject verb agreement to I
182
think at one point you said it it doesn't depends on
183
but we want to remember that it depends it depends
184
and really minor things around word order as you were talking about your hometown you mentioned
185
that it was very popular with cherry blossoms we'd actually want to reverse those two we want to say
186
that cherry blossoms are really popular yeah yeah
187
so just minor sort of minor things and the similar things in part two and part three
188
The other point might be developing your answers just a little bit more.
189
As you get into those higher IELTS bands,
190
you want to give slightly longer answers.
191
Part 2 was a good answer,
192
but I could tell that after we got past a minute,
193
you started to run out of things to say.
194
The only thing to do to hit the 2 minutes is to just practice over and over again.
195
To give more details.
196
To give just a little bit more detail.
197
But it was a really well-structured answer.
198
You started with describing who the person was and then got more detailed.
199
So I could follow along,
200
and again with good pronunciation and good fluency.
201
It was good.
202
Within that part two answer,
203
there were a couple of times where I think you were looking for an adjective.
204
Yeah, it was so hard.
205
higher end of vocabulary the thing to work on is just just expanding the range of adjectives
206
that you can that you can call to mind in a test situation
207
but overall I thought it was a really good test part three was also it was like good answers
208
that could have been slightly more developed but but overall really nice
209
and these these grammar and vocabulary points are very small so Thank you.
210
Well done and thank you for coming in today.
211
Thank you.
212
Nice to meet you.
213
Nice to meet you too.

¿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.
