1
Ryan, over here!
2
I have been waiting for 15 minutes.
3
Sorry, Chloe.
4
I had to finish something before coming here.
5
Studying again?
6
No, this time it was something more important.
7
More important than studying?
8
Wow, today must be a special day.
9
It is.
10
So, what is that notebook in your hand?
11
Nothing.
12
Chloe, it says Ryan's secret love investigation on the cover.
13
Oh, that.
14
I just did a little research.
15
Research?
16
Yes.
17
After our conversation in class, I could not sleep.
18
I made a list of every boy in our classroom.
19
You seriously did that? Of course.
20
You said the person you like was in the classroom, and you told me to guess the boys.
21
I did not exactly say that.
22
First, I thought you liked Jack, because he sings very well.
23
No. Then I thought it was Tony Stark, because he's the Iron Man of our class, and you always lend him your homework.
24
I lent him my homework because he's terrible at math.
25
What about David Beckham?
26
You always play basketball with him.
27
Chloe, David Beckham already has a girlfriend.
28
That does not answer my question.
29
Oh my god.
30
Then I started thinking about our male teacher.
31
Please stop thinking about our male teacher.
32
I knew it.
33
You like him.
34
No, I do not.
35
It's okay, Ryan.
36
I'm your friend.
37
I will always support you.
38
Chloe, I don't like any boy in our classroom.
39
What?
40
And I definitely don't like our teacher.
41
Then why did you tell me to guess the boys?
42
Haha, I was just joking.
43
The truth is, I like a girl.
44
A girl?
45
Yes, she's a very noisy girl.
46
She's always energetic and she talks a lot.
47
Oh, so who is she?
48
Tell me the name.
49
I'm so curious now.
50
Well, I like a girl and her name is Chloe.
51
Wow, her name is Chloe too.
52
That's so funny.
53
She has the same name as me.
54
So do you plan to tell her about your feelings?
55
I want to tell her many times, but I don't know how to start.
56
I don't know what to say.
57
She has so much energy and many people like her, so I don't feel confident.
58
Don't worry, Ryan.
59
I'm here.
60
Her name has the same name as me, so I know what she likes.
61
I can help you.
62
Really?
63
So what should I say to her?
64
Just say what you think.
65
Say the words from your heart.
66
All girls love honest words.
67
Try it now.
68
Say the words to me and I will check them for you.
69
Okay.
70
Chloe, the truth is, I love you.
71
I loved you for a very long time, but I didn't know how to say it.
72
Every day, I only study.
73
My life is very lonely and quiet.
74
Everything around me is just books.
75
But when I met you, you brought positive energy.
76
You make me smile more, and you make my life interesting.
77
I always thought, I'm a boring boy.
78
If I can be your boyfriend, I will be very happy.
79
So every time I study, I only think about you.
80
I think, I must study very hard to make you proud.
81
I want you to feel safe with me.
82
I want to teach you every lesson you don't know.
83
I prepared these serious words many times.
84
I stood in front of the mirror to practice because I wanted to be brave.
85
Today, I finally have the chance.
86
I really like you a lot, Chloe.
87
Do you like me too?
88
Do you notice me even one time?
89
Or am I just the normal friend to you?
90
Oh, wow, Ryan.
91
Your words are very beautiful and emotional.
92
I think when that girl hears this, she will be very happy because a smart student likes her so much.
93
Ah, but look at the time.
94
I'm so sorry, Ryan.
95
I'm busy now.
96
I have something important to do, so I must go first.
97
Bye-bye.
98
Bye-bye, Chloe.

¿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.
