Thanks for coming out.
7
How's everyone doing tonight?

Good evening.
9
Good evening, everyone.
10
Or as the French say, good evening.
11
No, it's bonjour, bienvenue.
12
Yes, yes.
13
I'm learning.
14
I'm trying to practice my French.
15
I'm not gonna lie, Montreal probably has the sexiest border I've ever come to in my life.
16
Yeah, I didn't feel like I was being interrogated,
17
I felt like I was being flirted with.
18
It was really sexy, and say,
19
what are you planning to do in Montreal?
20
I'm planning to stay, that's what I'm doing.
21
The French, the French, the most romantic language in the world.
22
I don't know why the accent is romantic as well, but it is.
23
It's funny how every accent has its own connotation to it.
24
You speak with a French accent, you are sexy.
25
How are you ladies?
26
And then there's some accents just have no sex appeal to them at all.
27
Like the Russian accent.
28
There's nothing sexy about it.
29
Everything the Russians say sounds dangerous and menacing.
30
Doesn't matter what they say,
31
because they've got that thing.
32
Yes, Russian, go to kill you, break you.
33
Destroy your family.
34
Even if Russians say nice things, it still sounds dangerous.
35
They still go, yes, fluffy rabbits and teddy bears.
36
Ah!
37
What?
38
It's like that weird thing,
39
like the Russian accent is so...
40
And you know, like, the crazy thing about the Russians is,
41
everyone in the world is afraid of them.
42
Everyone, no matter where you go in the world.
43
You know the Russians are frightening.
44
Because they're the only country that makes America think before doing something.
45
Everywhere else in the world,
46
America acts when something happens.
47
When Russia does something, we think about it.
48
Yeah, you saw the whole thing that happened,
49
with that plane that was shot down,
50
the Malaysian flight, the Ukrainian rebels shot the plane, the plane came down.
51
You know, America came out,
52
Barack Obama, he was there,
53
he was like, we gotta find out who did this.
54
We're gonna come down on them like an iron fist.
55
We're gonna let them know what time it is.
56
I'm paraphrasing.
57
Uh...
58
And then, and then everyone found out it was the Russians
59
that supplied the Ukrainian rebels with the missile that shot down the plane.
60
And then all of a sudden,
61
Obama was like, but, uh...
62
Let's not rush to conclusions.
63
Let's take our time and not point fingers.
64
Especially not at the Russians.
65
Uh...
66
I'm going home now.
67
Thank you very much.
68
There's something about the Russians.
69
The Russians.
70
The Russians.
71
You know what's weird is...
72
I find the Russian accent frightening,
73
but not the Russian language.
74
It's the strangest thing ever.
75
There are certain languages I find find frightening,
76
there's certain accents that throw me off.
77
For instance, I find Arabic frightening as a language.
78
It just has that thing in it.
79
But I could be saying anything.
80
We're talking about Candy Crush.
81
But it's because we've watched all those movies, all those TV shows.
82
Every time you see Arabic,
83
some bad shit goes down.
84
It's never something cool or sexy, you know?
85
It's never like...
86
It's never that.
87
So the language is frightening,
88
but Russian, for some reason,
89
I don't find frightening at all.
90
Yeah, I don't.
91
I realize this.
92
I was walking through the streets of New York,
93
and there was a Russian guy.
94
He was walking next to me,
95
and he happened to be on the phone, right?
96
Sounded like he was setting up a drug deal.
97
And so this guy is walking next to me and he's talking
98
and he switched from Russian He switched from English the English Russian accent into Russian
99
and it went from fear to no fear It was the strangest thing ever he was on the phone
100
and he was like yeah,
101
no Vlad don't worry The guys got to be the 3 o'clock, okay?
102
You meet them you tell me after that you got the package we call Don't worry Vlad,
103
no listen Vlad Vlad Vlad And it was the craziest thing ever.
104
He went from like international criminal to immigrants.
105
It was the weirdest thing like I had no fear
106
At all
107
I'm not afraid of the Russian language just the accent in
108
fact to me the Russian language just sounds like someone's playing
109
a vinyl backwards That's all I hear it sounds like someone took a DJ of English,
110
and they were just there like yeah Yeah, yeah, just like yes.
111
Yes.
112

¿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.
