You look pretty too.
5
Oh, well, that's so sweet of you to say.
6
So it's 2018 now, isn't it?
7
Yes.
8
I haven't seen you since 2017.
9
What's changed?
10
What's happened?
11
I've had some of those out.
12
Oh, there's two teeth are gone?
13
One's coming in.

15
Oh, boy.
16
Two are gone.
17
Two are gone.
18
That one's coming in.
19
Yep.
20
It looks like a perfect place to put a straw.
21
You can just put a straw in there and suck on like a shake or something.
22
Okay.
23
I put it in there.
24
Yeah. So what?
25
It's been my birthday as well.
26
Oh, really?
27
How was that?
28
It was great.
29
We went to the snow.
30
You went to the snow?
31
Yes.
32
And what did you do in the snow?
33
We went tubing.
34
Holy.
35
And we built a snowman.
36
Oh.
37
That looks like a whole lot of fun.
38
Yes.
39
That's not, was that your first time in the snow?
40
Yes.
41
Really?
42
It was.
43
It's very cold in the snow, isn't it?
44
You look like you're having a lot of fun.
45
I am.
46
Those are some cool sunglasses.
47
Is that so people won't recognize you because you're famous?
48
No. So I hear you're taking hip hop classes.
49
Yes.
50
What is your favorite dance move?
51
I don't know what it's called, but it's this.
52
And this one.
53
OK.
54
Yeah.
55
I think that's Twitch's favorite dance move, too.
56
I see him do that all the time.
57
So you're watching my Game of Games, I understand.
58
What's your favorite part of Game of Games?
59
I like the buttons part.
60
Oh, when I push the buttons?
61
Yeah.
62
When I make people drop and stuff?
63
Yes.
64
Yeah.
65
How come you like that?
66
I like you bet your wife,
67
because they fall into the pie and flying for the musical chairs.
68
Yeah.
69
They start dancing so crazy.
70
I know.
71
I know.
72
It's so fun, isn't it?
73
So I heard also that you like scientists now.
74
That's your new thing, is you're following scientists?
75
Yes.
76
I got a book from the bookstore,
77
and it had scientists in it.
78
Uh-huh.
79
You're six, right?
80
Yes.
81
OK, so that's the book you bought,
82
is a book about scientists?
83
Yes.
84
OK, so tell me what scientists you're following.
85
Who do you like?
86
I think there's some pictures of ones that, who is that?
87
That guy has a fancy name,
88
but I think I need to pronounce it like this.
89
It's French.
90
Anton Vassier.
91
He recognized and named hydrogen and oxygen on the periodic table.
92
But he's best known for knowing what oxygen does in combustion.
93
Wow, okay.
94
And who is this?
95
That's Daniel Bernoulli.
96
Oh, that's right.
97
And what is he known for?
98
His principle explains how airplanes fly.
99
It's because of the shape of the wing.
100
The wing is shaped so that the air flows faster over the top of the wing and slower underneath.
101
It's like the air has a little slide to go down.
102
Okay.
103
For the airplane.
104
Yes, and who's this?
105
That's Galileo.
106
Mm, I love that drink.
107
Okay.
108
Well, it was named after him, I'm sure.
109
Tell me about Galileo.
110
One of his discoveries was about motion.
111
Something only has to be pushed or pulled if there's a force slowing it down.
112
So if you had a ball on the ground,
113
the ground would create friction and the air would create the drag.
114
But if that same ball were up in space,
115
it would keep going without having to be pushed or pulled.
116
Okay.
117
Um.
118
And who's this right here?
119
That's Isaac Newton.
120
Look at his hair.
121
He's got a lot of hair.
122
Tell us about Isaac Newton.
123
Newton discovered the law of gravity.
124
He even worked out a math version of his discovery to predict how the moon,
125
comets, and planets move.
126
Wow.
127
OK.
128
And this is who?
129
Do you know what's funny?
130
I think that's a picture of Robert.
131
You're right, it's not funny, you're absolutely right.
132
But I really- What's funny is you know all of this stuff, that's what's funny.
133
But actually, I really can't say for sure,
134
because there isn't an exact portrait that exists.
135
Oh.
136
His friend, Isaac Newton, either lost the picture or destroyed it.
137
I see.
138
So and he was the first person to do what?
139
He was the first person known to see actual cells under the microscope after it was invented.
140
Wow.
141
That's amazing.
142
But we're not sure if that's him or not.
143
No. All right.
144
That's my best guess of what he looks like.
145
Well, if anyone watching is related to him,
146
knows him, or sir, if you're watching,
147
please get in touch with us.
148
Karaoke is your new thing to do.
149
Yes.
150
Yeah?
151
So you go to bars,
152
and where do you do it? At home.
153
Oh, at home.
154
We have a special karaoke stage in a corner.
155
Oh, wow, that's great.
156
And so you sing, what's your favorite song?
157
I like Let It Go.
158
Of course you do.
159
That's your go-to song?
160
Yeah.
161
Yeah, I look forward to doing that in a bar one day.
162
That would be, all right.
163
Well, I don't know what kind of machine you have at home,
164
but we got you one,
165
because I don't know what you have.
166
But let's see what we got you.
167
You like it?
168
Yes.
169
Yes.
170
Thank you.
171
Well, you're welcome.
172
All right, because nobody puts Brielle in a corner.
173
That's going to be yours.

¿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.
