1
Welcome back channel members.
2
Hey guys, how are you doing?
3
Today I have a special treat just for you.
4
I have a members only video and it's a really good video.
5
We are going to learn English with Instagram.
6
Recently, this has been my favorite way to teach English.
7
I think you're probably familiar if you are a channel member.
8
So let's go ahead and dive in with video number one.
9
Ooh.
10
All right, so how can we use English to describe what we just saw?
11
Go ahead, try it out yourself first.
12
At the beginning of this video, we see a man.
13
The man is standing next to a body of water, right?
14
Maybe it's a lake, or maybe it's a little bit smaller, like a pond.
15
What does the man do?
16
He is winding up, swinging his arm behind his back.
17
Yeah, that's a word and expression we use in English.
18
Winding up, it means you are collecting power, you are getting ready to throw something.
19
A lot like a baseball pitcher, right?
20
A pitcher in a baseball game, they wind up and then they throw the ball.
21
So first he winds up, he gets ready to throw,
22
then he swiftly, quickly throws a rock.
23
What kind of rock?
24
A big, bulky rock?
25
No, this is a small, flat rock.
26
Perfect for what?
27
Skipping on the surface of water.
28
It keeps going.
29
It keeps skipping, skipping along for a long time, doesn't it?
30
This is a really impressive video.
31
I don't know about you guys, but when I was a little kid, I would try to do this all the time.
32
My family has a ranch out in the countryside on that ranch is a little pond.
33
And I would take small flat rocks and try to skip them, skip them along the water.
34
Now, I was not as successful as this guy.
35
At most, I could skip a rock maybe three or four times.
36
But in the video, this guy skips the rock, looks like about 30 times, right?
37
It's really impressive.
38
Every time the rock hits the surface of the water, it causes what?
39
To spread out.
40
It creates small ripples.
41
Ripples, right?
42
We can say ripples.
43
These circles that spread out from the point where the rock hit the surface of the water.
44
It's a little bit complicated, isn't it?
45
Small ripples spread out from the point where the rock hit or struck the surface of the water.
46
All right, let's try another one here.
47
Describe this in English.
48
Here we go.
49
Oh my god.
50
All right, once again, try it yourself first.
51
What did we see in this video?
52
There's a guy standing on a boat, right?
53
What does this guy do?
54
He takes his shirt, the bottom of his shirt, and he stretches it open wide.
55
Stretches it open wide.
56
Then the man jumps off of the boat and into the water.
57
Looks like he's at sea, right?
58
Looks like the boat is out at sea.
59
he jumps directly into a school of fish.
60
Yeah, in English, a group of fish, we can say a school of fish, right?
61
So this guy jumps directly into the middle of a school of fish with his shirt stretched open wide.
62
Now, when he hits the water, he scoops up a bunch of the fish into his shirt, right?
63
And then he holds the shirt tightly shut.
64
He holds the shirt shut so that the fish won't escape, so they won't go swimming out of his shirt, right?
65
Then, only using his legs, he kicks himself back to the boat,
66
climbs back up onto the boat, and does what with the fish?
67
Dumps them out of his shirt and into a bucket, where we can see dozens and dozens of small silver fish.
68
All right, guys, this was just a quick bonus video for you all today.
69
Once again, thank you so much for your support.
70
I know the channel has been going through some crazy changes recently.
71
It really warmed my heart to see how many of my channel members stuck with me through this change.
72
Thank you guys for your ongoing support, and I will have more members only content for you guys soon.
73
So until next time, stay well, guys.

¿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.
