Creando lección...
1
We'll be back later to see how Ashley and Poppy got on, but first let's just take a quick look through all of that with our English language expert Rob from the British Council.
2
Hi Rob.
3
Hi Stephen.
4
That's good.
5
Ashley got the part in the advertisement.
6
Well, Poppy did.
7
Let's start with advertisement.
8
The word advertisement.
9
How many syllables is it?
10
Advertisement.
11
Four.
12
Right, and where's the stress?
13
Advertisement.
14
Now, advertisement is a noun, a thing.
15
What's the verb?
16
Advertise.
17
How many syllables?
18
Advertise.
19
Three.
20
And which one's stressed?
21
Advertise.
22
Ad.
23
Okay, advertise.
24
Stress is important.
25
When you meet a new word, you need to think about what it means, but also how you say it.
26
If you're writing new words in a notebook or in your phone or somewhere, make a note of where the stress is.
27
Here's another example.
28
We're going to take a few photos of you.
29
Okay, great.
30
Photo is short for photograph and the stress is on the first syllable.
31
Photograph.
32
Photograph.
33
But a person who takes a photograph is a photographer.
34
Look where the stress is.
35
Photographer.
36
Photographer.
37
So you can see that it's important to make a note of the stressed syllables and the right way to say things.
38
Now let's look at something else.
39
Watch.
40
If they like her, she could be the star of the next TV ad.
41
Not at all.
42
She might be exactly what we're looking for.
43
You said she could be the star of the next TV ad
44
and the director said she might be exactly what we're looking for.
45
Could and might.
46
now watch these good luck ashley i'm sure you'll be fantastic well leave her here no way okay
47
this time you said i'm sure you'll be fantastic and she'll be okay you used will both times
48
what's the difference between could and might and will well will is
49
when you're sure about something and could and might aren't
50
so sure that's right you use will
51
when you're sure about something leave her here no way okay it's not a fact poppy might not be okay
52
but you feel sure that she'll be okay
53
so you say she'll be okay in other sentences you're not
54
so sure if they like her she could be the star of the next TV ad?
55
Not at all.
56
She might be exactly what we're looking for.
57
She could be the star and she might be what we're looking for.
58
It's not sure, but it's possible.
59
It's just what you and the director think.
60
Are could and might the same?
61
Is there a difference?
62
No. When you're talking about how sure you are, they're exactly the same.
63
Okay.
64
Now, one last thing.
65
What did you say to Ashley before her audition wish me
66
luck good luck Ashley I'm sure you'll be fantastic good luck yeah Ashley said wish me luck
67

¿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.
