33
Oh, we have arrived!

When we stepped onto the island, they made us turn off the cameras, took us back to the boat, and sent us to another security island next to Migingo, whose residents are Kenyans and Ugandans, occupying it and controlling who enters and who leaves.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
