1
The person who talks less always gives off a greater aura of power than the people
2
that are yabbering all the time that are talking, that can't control their tongue.
3
And the idea is, if you can't control your mouth, if you just keep talking and talking,
4
it gives an aura to other people that you can't control anything else.
5
You have no self-control.
6
And that is very unpowerful aura.
7
And obviously, the more you talk, the more you are prone to say something kind of stupid and irrational that you're going to regret.
8
And so powerful people know to command an audience, they sit there, they let other people talk and argue,
9
and then occasionally they utter something that's maybe a little bit ambiguous.
10
It goes, whoa, whoa, that's very interesting.
11
Robert said that, what does that mean?
12
You look powerful, right?
13
You give off an air of mystery, you give off an air of control.
14
Learn to control what you talk and learn that there are moments
15
that saying less is actually much more powerful than just yammering on and on.
16
Thank you.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
