1
Well, where you live now?
2
Which town or city do you live in now?
3
Well, I'm currently living in Hanoi,
4
which is the bustling capital city of Vietnam.
5
To be honest, I really enjoy the fast-paced lifestyle there
6
because there are countless entertainment venues and street food stalls around the city.
7
Are there any things you don't like about your area?
8
Actually, one thing I'm not particularly fond of is the heavy traffic during rush hour.
9
Besides that, the air quality tends to deteriorate quite badly,
10
especially on crowded main roads.
11
Do you think you will continue to live there for a long time?
12
For the time being, I'll probably continue living in Hanoi since my family and education are based there.
13
However, in the long run,
14
I'd love to relocate to somewhere quieter with a lower cost of living.
15
What are some changes in the area recently?
16
Recently, my neighborhood has undergone noticeable changes,
17
with more high-rise buildings and convenience stores being constructed.
18
As a result, the area has become much livelier and more accessible than it used to be.
19
Do you live in a house or an apartment?
20
At the moment, I'm living in an apartment with my family in Hanoi.
21
Although it's not particularly spacious,
22
it's still cozy and equipped with most of the essential household facilities.
23
What is your favorite room in your home?
24
Without a doubt, my bedroom is my favorite place because it gives me a strong sense of privacy and relaxation.
25
I usually unwind there after school by listening to music or scrolling through social media.
26
What things make your home pleasant to live in?
27
I think the warm family atmosphere is what makes my home pleasant to live in.
28
On top of that, the apartment is fairly well organized,
29
so everyone can enjoy a comfortable living environment.
30
Are the people in your neighborhood nice and friendly?
31
I think the warm family atmosphere is what makes my home pleasant to live in.
32
On top of that, the apartment is fairly well organized,
33
so everyone can enjoy a comfortable living environment.
34
Do you know any of your neighbors?
35
Yeah, I know several neighbors who have been living there for many years.
36
Occasionally, my family chats with them or exchanges food during special occasions and traditional holidays.
37
Do you know any famous people in your area?
38
Not really, since my neighborhood is mostly residential and relatively quiet.
39
That said, I've heard that a few local influencers and content creators live somewhere nearby.
40
To study.
41
What do you study?
42
I'm currently studying at high school,
43
so I have to learn a wide range of compulsory subjects.
44
However, I'm particularly keen on English because it broadens my horizons and improves my communication skills.
45
What do you find most interesting about your studies?
46
What interests me the most is that studying allows me to gain practical knowledge and develop problem-solving skills.
47
Besides that, some lessons are surprisingly thought-provoking and encourage deeper understanding.
48
Which is more important to you,
49
the teachers, or the other students on your course?
50
Personally, I would say teachers are more important because they provide proper guidance and inspire students to study harder.
51
That said, supportive classmates also make the learning process less stressful and more enjoyable.
52
How much time do you spend studying every week?
53
I probably spend roughly 30 hours a week studying,
54
including both school hours and self-study at home.
55
During exam season, though, my study schedule becomes far more intense and demanding.
56
How do you usually travel to the city where you study?
57
I usually travel to school by motorbike on my own,
58
which gives me a sense of independence.
59
However, the traffic in Hanoi can be quite stressful, especially during peak hours.

¿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.
